  The Giant's Home When she woke up, she looked up. For a moment, she wondered if she had dreamed up the events of the day before. Oh. So all of that was not a dream… She thought in her sluggish half asleep state of mind. Then she felt her stomach hurt with a painful hunger as it loudly rubbled. Her mouth was dry. She had decided to, before planning anything, get something to eat. She looked around to see where she could get something to eat. She soon found an apple tree outside the Giacouse Estate. She noticed that the apple and tree were both large. Looks like I am going to have to climb another long climb. She then walked on and on. She felt her hunger become more and more painful. She also felt her arms and legs were still painfully aching from the day before. The moment that she arrived at the base of the tree, she climbed the base of the roots. She walked along the top of the root. She reached out and started to climb.  She found it easier to climb the tree than the cli...

  The Giant's Land Pheoshan, Prince Cpalphyre and Phryedoor had been traveling for a month without any more interruptions. She had thought about Prince Rice and Livea. She wondered if they were alright and if she had made the right choice to leave them. Obviously she knew that this was the right thing to do for the world, but was this right for her? She wished that she could say yes to that but she just did not know. So she pushed the thoughts aside. She looked at the high and bright sun. She could tell that the days were getting hotter and hotter and longer and longer. They were leaving the rest of spring behind and entering the center of summer. This was what she was looking forward to, after all, this would be the first summer she would spend awake. Also it would mean that there would be no more cold nights. Thinking about it, she just could not believe she had spent most of her life from infancy, asleep and as a host to the Demon King Wolfox. Yet she found it even more unbeliev...

  Total Defeat When Streba woke up next a blade was pointing to her throat. Her lip curled as she sat up. She then smiled as she looked at the bounds around her wrists. "Not taking any chances, I see!" "No." "It's alright. I'm not going to try to kill you. No Zarry. I've seen that your self preservation is not your weakness. However I have seen that it never had been. Yet I know what it is. Speaking of which I can also tell that the girl does want to kill you, but she wants it to be on her terms. Oh what is it about your lot and wanting things to be on your terms,  that I will never know. However I can see right through you and what you are doing." She said, rolling onto her feet. She looked down at the bounds and they broke apart. "Did you really think that they could stop me?" She then heard the sound of the sea and looked back.  "What else should I have expected, dark lady?" She smiled as she ran to the cliffs. She lo...

  The Fifth Attempt Strena whole up. It was early in the morning, so early in fact that the sun had not yet come out on the horizon. She smiled nonchalantly as she stretched. She sat up and looked down to see Zaryb sleeping soundly beside her. She smiled as she outrushed her hand and a fire sprung from it. Her smile widened. She looked at Zaryb again, before looking back. She moved throughout the forest, the bracelet around her wrist prevented her from going too far. She looked at it as her eyes rolled. She soon returned to the camp. She took out a pot and poured water into it and started muttering something under her breath. She pricked her finger and a drop of blood fell into the potion. She then dropped a few herbs into the pot. Yet as she did the blood increased in the mixture. Then the potion started to stir on its own and as it did it increased the speed until it became a whirlpool in the center. She then caught a rabbit and slit its throat. She turned it upside down. There s...

  The Fourth Attempt Strena woke up feeling very scared and naked, despite having warm winter closeness on. Her fear filled eyes darted to Zaryb. He reached out his hand and she closed her eyes as she templed. He then placed his hand upon her head. Her eyes opened and she frowned. She looked away as she pouted. "I suppose you're going to punish me for my weakness." He chuckled. "No you are no match for that Dark Lady." He said, patting her. "She would have been dead already if she could be trusted!" "What do you mean by that?" "She has her ways and has been known to become more dangerous whenever she resurrected herself." She smirked bitterly. "Sounds like we have a problem." "Only if you deny her what she wants." "How so?" "She ensures that all who get in her way come to a very grim end. How grim depends entirely on how angry she is." She closed her eyes in dread as her heart sank. Looks like...
