Two months ago, Leon entered this place to escape death. Now, he is entering it not fearing anything. The district was barricaded after the protests he instigated last night and it seemed that things went better than he ever expected.
Prince Edward was pissed that he lost his precious Philanderer Stone for sure he became reckless and lashed on the protestors. Unfortunately for him, he was up against Eden Newman who is an extreme leftist and someone who will do anyth...

"I apologize for being late, please look over my rudeness." Karmina walked into the guest room quickly and cheerfully as she looked around for the guest that had arrived.
"No, not at all Lady Karmina. It is I who must apologize for the sudden visit."
On the other hand, a young lady put her cup back on the saucer and put the set back on the table elegantly. Looking at her, Karmina felt a little bit taken aback by the appearance of the young lady.

A new morning's sun came through the skies of Karanberg. Unpleasant and bothersome as it was, it was the only supplier to provide the energy that was spent during the last night.
It is pleasant to smell, the smell of the sun. it is beautiful, sacred, rejuvenating, and most definitely the sole reason why everyone is bustling through the city to work, worship, and wander.
Tea shops and coffee houses opened throughout the city with people smiling, sing...

Blurry and smoking, that was the small clash between the protestors and the dogs of the Syndicate.
No one knew why it started unless they were the ringleaders and one stood watching things unfold while thinking, calculating, and thinking again.
He looked at the bottle in his hand, just a fucking bottle made of trash-grade glass that breaks very easily. It contained Dwarven Oil which is a very easy material to acquire then it was blocked by a dir...

She doesn't know the reason or why things are turning out all wrong when it comes to that certain young man but she can't be more right when she says he's the most dangerous scoundrel she ever ran into.

While the storm of mischief was blowing through the bowels of the city, the stink of the northern district was ever so gleeful when it greeted the unaccustomed.
Cloaks can hide so much but when the material of the cloak itself is worth more than the entire neighborhood, the aura of the unwanted visitors threatens away the usual riff-raff hanging around this unusual turf.

In the last decade, the Edeners were one of the most successful movements of the Liberation Revolutionary Front digging their roots deeply as far as society goes.
Eden Newman, the founder of the ideology of the Free Youth Movement who are known as the Edeners unofficially, was one of the most wanted and highly disturbing political influencers in the Amber kingdom.
Once the people started calling the young men following him the Edeners, thos...

"I am glad to see you alright, Jessica." Leon said.
"You came back?" She looked at him in awe.
"I wronged some people and I owe you. Even a thief should have some honor." He laughed, "You can stand?"
"Yes, I feel… a lot better actually." She nodded and looked towards Jordi who was heating some food for her, "I just wished you never told him."

"Grrr… Leon! Damnedest Leon!" Vadim kept growling like an engine as the smoke of his pipe danced around him conveying his rage.

Leon knew one place that might be safe in this city and very vacant at the moment so there where the group of four headed. The old warehouse of Hector Norman where they planned to steal the Pride of Del Mar.
A few hours passed since the escape from the Honey Saloon and aside from Leon, Zal and Jordi were both afraid and tired. On Leon's orders, none of them is to leave the warehouse unless he tells them so.
Zal was still devastated by what happened with th...

Leon and Jordi got out of the alleyway immediately rushing each to their respective tasks. Leon put on his hood and changed the shape of the [Chameleon Cloak] to look more like vagrant's clothes as he joined the gathering of the vagrants near the Honey Saloon. It seemed that Ruth was planning on a display tonight.
"Molly! Molly! How many kegs of wine do we have? Is it all set for tonight?" Ruth's voice echoed as shouted at Molly the cook of the Saloon.

The bustling city of Karanberg was dangerously quiet on this particular morning. Two months since the nobles caused a scene in some chase to the Northern District, today was another busy day as the northern gate was already secured by a large attachment of Royal Knights and Mages.

Edward of Amber; Crown Prince of the Kingdom, the sole legitimate male heir apparent, and unarguably one of the most talented of his age group; has for the first day of his life experienced the taste of dirt.

Eleanor witnessed everything.
She infiltrated the Goblin Den from the backdoor she found, she traced a trail of blood and goblin corpses to the inner sanctum of the den and as she wanted to investigate, the cave started crumbling. It was surely the doing of a very impulsive and infuriated Prince she splendidly baited into acting rashly… maybe too rashly.

This word, this reply, for the two of them it meant one thing.

Prince Edward was enraged, Leon wasn't completely in the right mind.
It didn't feel right for Edward that someone came out from the Goblin Den that he was just about to raid, not only rendering his efforts useless but endangering the image he was trying to reform.

The two that should have never met, the two who hold the two ends of the rope, the two whose history goes deeper than anyone would even imagine.
Eleanor was a proud child, a Princess raised in the center of attention, a true project of a Queen.
No, she was the Fated Queen, for the first six years of her life, she was the Heir to the Throne until the appearance of a Prince. She was a force of nature in every aspect starting from Talent to Appearance. ...

Chaos has always been and will forever be an undefinable mess. The only thing known about chaos is that it is unknown until it is no longer that.
To demonstrate; what you know falls in the circle of Knowledge, what you don't know falls in the circle of Ignorance. What you are ignorant about seems messy and is considered hard to grasp thus it gives you this sensation of chaos, however, what you understand even to a rough degree gives you a feeling that everyt...

This was fun.
Driving people to despair and dismantling their power systematically like setting a sequence of domino pieces all falling together just with one push while just doing nothing but playing a grand scheme.

Ultimately and after long hours of struggle, the search has made it to the Goblin Den.
And a skirmish broke out.
The Goblins with their terrain advantage, home base superiority, and guerilla tactics against the Humans with their unstoppable armor, magic, and formations.

Erielle had that thought in her mind which she couldn't shake off. It just came to her a few hours ago and made her wonder about one detail that no one might have touched before.
There was this strange and scary notion that the current Leon is saying the truth. That he's no longer the one he used to be. Amnesia might be affecting him and this is what most of those who are aware of his condition think… but there is something else with this Amnesia.

It was dark inside the forest but a certain rage fueled the fire which consumed everything in its path and that fire was burning for revenge.
Edward of Amber wasn't the one who would be angered by the least of things as he never failed to solve a problem before. Mostly those who opposed him would end up oppressed and pushed out of power like the First Queen and the Elder Princess, his step-mother and eldest half-sister.

Huxley ran, despite his injuries he kept running. It was as if his world collapsed all over again.
Why did it happen now?
Just as he was saved, just as Leo took him out of that place. Why did it have to be right when everything was supposed to be alright?
The more he ran, the worse his injuries got but he disregarded that. Leo saved his life but it is now his turn to save Leo and he's to be damned in darkness if he couldn't get help on time.
