Chapter 8 - 8. The Way of the Blade (pt. 1).

thus my journey began, i was thrown onto a path none can walk but me, a path filled with pain and strife, but also happiness and joy. a path i could only bear to walk with a select few, i do not know if it would be possible without them.

we did not get a moments sleep until deep into the night with the bright crescent moon glowing brightly over head and the stars no less shiny. in the last few hours before sleep once again welcomed us into its soft embrace, an odd event took place. several springs of light suddenly blazed into existence startling me out of the murky fog of grogginess. however to my lasting surprise the light was not at all painful in fact it was comforting and somehow familiar though it escaped me if I had ever seen or heard about something similar.

"R-Rek are you seeing this..?" i stammered into the darkness, Rek's reply soon came in the form of a confused 'khaw?', "you can't see those..." i trailed off after hearing soft snoring coming from the direction i thought Rek was in. "fine, ill just check them out myself" i said to myself. soon after that, with a slowly burning torch in hand, i set off towards the nearest spring of light.
