Chapter 71 – Orsted’s Decision
Chapter 71: Orsted's Decision Ash didn't speak until we were half an hour out from the hollow. The road south required attention in the early stretch, the terrain uneven and the light going gold with the particular reluctance of autumn afternoons. I walked with my attention on the ground ahead and the part of me that lived in forward assessment already working through the next sequence. The debrief with Mike. The dispersal of Division A forces, the confirmation that no border guards had registered the…-

Chapter 70 – Memories (6)
Chapter 70: Memories (6) The decision to go back had already been made by the time Claude left Rexia Kingdom. He did not stop to make it. The road simply pointed north and he was on it. The territory got worse as he walked. He had gone back to Buena first, but found no one he knew. The village was alive, but not in the way it had been. It might have been him who'd changed, but standing in a place where familiar names matched no face still hurt. He turned north, toward the Holy Land of the…-

Chapter 69.1: Memories (5) Part 2 The dungeon entrance was enormous. I tilted my head back and kept tilting, then whistled low. "How did the previous survey team miss something this size?" "Are you certain it's not a labyrinth already?" "Positive. The mana signature is too thin for a labyrinth. It's just big." Claude's hand went to his blade. "After you." I gestured toward the entrance with exaggerated courtesy. "I actually think your instincts for hostile terrain are probably better than—" The back of…

Chapter 69 – Memories (5)
Chapter 69: Memories (5) The Metastasis took Claude mid-step on a road he had walked every morning, between one stride and the next, and left him on a road he had never seen. His body stopped before his mind understood why. Not the freeze of choice. The freeze that happens when the brain hits something it cannot categorize and simply stalls, the way a wheel spins when it meets empty air instead of ground. His foot came down and the earth under it was wrong, not different but wrong, wrong at a register…-

Chapter 68 – Open Negotiation
Chapter 68: Open Negotiation Armored Dragon Calendar Year 418 – One Hour North of Red Dragon's Lower Jaw --- The location Orsted had chosen was a hollow between ridges, open enough to deny concealment from any direction, positioned so that the wind carried sound away from populated areas. He had clearly done this before. Chosen ground with the consideration of someone who expected conversations to sometimes become something else, and had prepared for both. The hour's walk north had been quiet. Ash…-
