    Interesting take on Marion! I'd have to agree that is the direction she is going. Thank you for reading, and for the comment!

    Chapter 24

    The prince of the Illjard heard his barrelman easily, despite his perch high atop the main mast. “Ship approaching! Clarion emblem!” He blew a shrill whistle, and multiple crewmates sprang into action. A large rush of people crowded to get below deck to access the armory. Adrian hoped that there wouldn’t be a fight, but he was fully prepared for one already. Up here? It was improbable, but Adrian trusted Captain Bjornan’s crew. And they all seem to trust the barrelman. “Where is it?” Kad

    Indeed! We'll see who, if anyone, succeeds soon! Thank you for reading and for the comment!

    Chapter 23

    Carlisle Cathcart was a prince, a leader, a husband, and a hard worker. There were very few people in the world that could make him doubt himself, or feel like a fool. His parents, his husband, and the mentors that he grew up with reserved that very special right, and several days into the siege of Yago Clarion’s territory, it happened. Carl set the letter that he had received from Director Chamberlin down, and put his head in his hands. I never should have doubted all of you. I should have come

    Indeed! A lack of transparency really hurt them in this case. Thank you for reading and leaving a comment!

    Chapter 22

    Indeed! As was guessed in the comments, the Order and Chamberlin weren't so bad after all. It does! It's the same mission that Carl went on, Alex went on, Jezebel went on, and Talia went on. The success rate is a bit low... Thank you for reading and commenting!

    Chapter 22

    Ysabel Clarion continued to ride, eyes ahead and slightly down. A brown rough-spun cloak hid her long hair and face, and oversized sleeves masked the claws that she wore on her hands. She was heading south via a westward path to get around the mountain range that guarded her brother’s back. She had taken an inconspicuous horse so as not to draw attention to her wealth, and she had made it quite far without being accosted. This was aided by the fact that Marie Lafeye had died, and Fran La Croix h

    Thanks for another great story @Ethan! I love reading your writing - I hope to see you publishing again sometime soon!

    Indeed indeed! He's a true Nabian - survival of the fittest to the extreme. Well, his version of 'fitness' anyway. Thank you for reading and for the comment!

    Chapter 21

    It had taken over a week, but the full might of Nabius had finally reached their southern destination. Tomacian troops were interspersed with Nabian resistance, and they marched as if they were one army. Fewer and fewer squabbles had occurred between the two nations as time went on, and a record few fights had occurred during the journey to Yago Clarion’s territory. Alex could sense what hung in the air – there was a finality to this march, a strong sense that the fates of too many would be seal

    Thank you! As for Marion, she's definitely a rash character - we'll have to see if she's bitten off more than she can chew! Thank you for reading and the comment!

    Interesting theory! Thank you so much for commenting and reading!

    Chapter 20

    Yes indeed! Though if Yago has all of these troops at his command, why not use them until now? I'm impressed that you picked up on Marion's plans - maybe I'm getting too predictable. Thanks so much for reading!!

    Chapter 20

    Light slowly crept through the feverish fog, fading in and out over a period of time that Alexandre could not distinguish. Each time he woke, the glimpse of a few faces was all that he could take in. The faces were normally Carl and Elsa Torne, but occasionally they included others. The haze of heat that seemed to settle heavily on his eyes kept him from full lucidity, but each time he awoke he felt stronger than the last. Eventually, intense pain cut hard and sharp through the dreary smog of th

    Chapter 19

    Yes indeed! Though who's to say he hasn't? I think for Devan, there's been a slow build up to an "I just can't take it anymore" moment that happened during the last gathering of the thirteen. Alex starting a civil war was somewhat of a wake up call for Devan. I appreciate the feedback - maybe I'll go back and make an edit to make this more clear in one of the previous chapters, after I get through the rest of the story 😅 Thank you for reading and for the comment!

    Chapter 19

    Thanks so much! I appreciate that, and am excited to reveal more about all of the characters with the plot. Yes - Devan and Damien's territories are effectively abandoned as of right now in the story. Thank you for reading and the comment!

    Chapter 19

    Adrian boarded his vessel hand in hand with Kade, the two walking up the gangway and both giving salutations towards the captain. Captain Bjornan waited for them at the edge of the ship, and gave them a personal greeting. She was all smiles, and Adrian was glad that she was there to meet Kade. She was one of the few other capable leaders in the Illjard, and had been a family friend for as long as he could remember. “Welcome, my prince,” she said with a respectful nod. “And my prince-to-be,”

    Chapter 18

    I'm so glad you liked it! I had the idea of Darion, Devan, and Damien and each of their unique fighting styles planned out since the very first chapter of this series! Thanks so much for reading and the comment!

    Chapter 18

    I'm so glad you liked it! Yes - two more Generals are down. I feel like you've just summarized what I was hoping to portray in terms of the relationships between characters, which makes me feel great! Thanks so much for reading and the comment.

    Chapter 18

    War was one of the few places that Alexandre could find solace. Though the battlefield was a chaotic zone of fear and darkness, Alex had developed the ability to fall into line with the ebb and flow of fighting with detached focus. Because war was a constant in his life, it provided some comfort. Though terror gripped him every time he had to fight – and he would argue that it was that way for everyone, every time, despite what they might say – it was also a chance to step outside of himself, an
