Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 23
23 Ander knew Hezzi wouldn't be able to forgive him. Banno was more of a god to him than even the Cora. Slaying that god must have turned him into the foulest demon imaginable, fully deserving of all the pain and torture the tribe could deliver. But...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 22
22 Hezzi couldn't have heard right. There was no way in Hell. He... He was just so caught up in Ander's appearance, with the blood everywhere... He couldn't have... Garten couldn't have just told him to gouge out Ander's eye. Could he? He wanted to...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 24
24 The whispers started immediately, and the words washed through Ander's head one after the other. "Serves him right." "He got exactly what he deserved, siding with Ander like that. It's disgraceful." "First Banno, now Hezzi, and Ander will follow...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 27
27 "How is he, Shekka?" Kadai asked. The insufferable Wolf has been hovering over her shoulder ever since he woke up. "No different from the last time you asked me." _You betrayer you devil you piece of filth how could you keep something like that...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 26
26 Nothing happened for a long, long time. There was no noise save for the crackling of the fire and the sound of breathing. Ander was afraid to move, or even to open his eyes. He was afraid that, if he tried, he would find that he was incapable of...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 29
29 It all happened in a flash. Ander had enough time to see the crimson sleek blade in her hand, and then she was on him, wrapping her arm around his throat from behind, just like Garten had done an eon ago. He felt her body press up against his back...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 30
30 "Walk in step with me. I don't want to cut you," Ander said and slowly started to walk backwards, pulling Nilia along. He kept his head down low, using her as a living shield. She was very cooperative, instantly adjusting to the rhythm of his...
Ander - Part 4: Subchapter 3
3 "He was awake, really really! I swear! He looked at me!" "I believe you, hon." The voices sounded like they were coming from underwater. No, wait... wasn't he supposed to be the one underwater? No... dammit, he was getting so sick of this. That...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 32
32 He didn't want to do it, but he couldn't stop himself. He looked down and saw that about half the spearhead was lodged in his left side. There was pressure and an insane amount of pain, but hardly any blood. Odd, considering how badly his shoulder...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 31
