Cool, neat to see this series picked up again. I loved the visuals on him charging into the hall at the expense of the slave girl’s nose. It was brutal but fitting within a society that would have a slave girl. I also really like how the last line could be taken two ways, especially given his character. Some great, descriptive lines in here.

I know it’s your series, but I couldn’t resist adding another bit, hopefully just a bit of mood and backdrop type stuff to set up some possibilities for where you take the story from there.

I came to this after reading THX 0477’s piece. I didn’t realize you’d written the original or that this was a series. I’m going to have to see if I can find it when I have a little more time. This is really good and I enjoyed it a lot. I felt like I was there. You have excellent descriptions and left me wanting more. Well done!

Thanks THX…I’ll check it out. I always enjoy your installments and am pleased as punch you see this story as worth of your time.

Shadowlight…the beginning of the story is at the link below. Thanks for your kind words.
