It was dusk and the group had started to make campfire. We have opted to stay for another night to rest and recover our strength. I was sitting at the side resting.Ragnar was out hunting for our dinner early in the afternoon. He and the men that accompanied him would be back any minute now.Maggie was arranging the cooking utensils for dinner tonight and Philip was left to accompany me. The siren child was also here with me keeping me company as well, while I write a letter to my family back the Wales palace.The siren child that came to us stayed within the camp. Her siren sisters were still afraid and stayed under the lake. She said her name was Ivy and I was happy seeing her very curious with our things. "So, this is what you call a ’pen’." Ivy looked at the pen that I was using. "You use this to ’write’ words on this ’paper’." She looked at it curiously. "Yes." I said with a smile. "I am writing to my family back at home in Wales." "You can send words with this?" Ivy said with

I quickly stood up to meet my husband, eager to see his face. It was a little curious because I have been feeling at ease just by looking at him. ’Is it because of the pregnancy?’ I thought to myself.I have never been that clingy with Ragnar before, but now I always like to be by his side and looking at his handsome face. "Be careful your majesty." Philips said while helping me up from my seat. "Please remember that you are in a delicate period now." "Thank you Phil ." I smiled brightly at him. I felt at ease that Phillips was by my side to help me remember to be careful. ’Should I need to tell Maggie as well?’ I thought.Maggie was like an older sister to me. I am sure that she would understand my decision to keep my pregnancy from Ragnar for a while. But the problem is, she is someone overprotective of me. I knew by experience how she takes care of me like her own family. ’The problem is if Maggie knew, then she cannot help but be more overprotective of me.’ I thought. ’And R

The sirens that were first hostile and wary towards us started to try and approach us that night. With the help of Ivy, the sirens were able to at least join our small dinner. They were still cautious towards the group, particularly because majority are men, but at least they tried to approach them and started small conversations.The next day, we departed the clearing by dawn. The sirens bid us farewell and Ragnar had stated that he will do his promise after this war ended. Ivy on the other hand accompanied us in our journey.It was really a good decision to let Ivy join us because she knew of better and much faster roads that will take us to the location of the key fragments in just two days’ time. You are fortunate to have asked me about the directions towards your destination." Ivy said with a proud tone. "I know the best roads around these woods, and we can avoid danger."Ivy rode my horse Summer. Fortunately, Ivy knew how to ride horses that was a rare knowledge for the siren

"I am sure that the Nine Lives Mercenaries can keep this place safe." Ragnar said in passing. "All we can do is tell your grandfather and father back in the capital about the issue here. We cannot go out of our way to help this people now." He said while looking at me intently.I am sure that my husband was saying these words because he knew how kind I was and thought I would like to help this people. He was not wrong there, because seeing that this village looks so poor at least I would like to help their livelihoods a bit.But in my current condition, I cannot do anything beyond writing a letter of recommendation to Grandpa Marcus and Williams.’ I thought to myself. ’I am not alone in this body anymore and I need to be mindful of every action I take.’ "You are right Erik." I agreed. "I am thinking of sending a letter to grandpa and Williams to inform them of the happenings here in southern woods." "That is good to hear." Ragnar smiled and patted my head. I felt happy like a child

[Ragnar’s POV] Isabella was asleep instantly by the time she laid down in bed. I can hear her peaceful breathing while her chest made up and down motions. I looked at my sleeping wife who was now deep in sleep. ’She looked so tired today.’ I recalled the events today.Isabella was riding with me, safely in my arms. I was secretly relieved now that she was riding with me. I can keep calm and do not have unnecessary worries about her wellbeing. ’I am happy that she thought of going back to Avalon after this.’ I thought.Back at the border village, I was initially planning on going back with her to Avalon and let Kyler accompany Marvin in search of the key fragments and the retrieving of the forbidden magic in the depths of the eastern sea. But when I heard that she would like to partake on this mission, I had no choice but to comply to her wishes. ’I am really weak when it comes to you.’ I sighed and smiled, looking at the beautiful sleeping features of my wife. I tucked away a ha

The sun has just set, and the night has just fallen in the woods near the village. Outside the village’s entrance, the bandits were using the darkness under the trees to shroud their presence. "Boss, there is someone guarding the village’s entrance." One of the bandits reported.The boss of this notorious group was a big muscular guy. His skin was of a darker shade and on his left eye he was wearing an eye patch. He has lots of scars visible on his exposed skin as well. "Guarding the entrance, you say?" The boss asked skeptically. "Maybe they are just some of the villages men. They won’t pose a threat to us." He waved his hand to dismiss his subordinate. "B-But boss, these men do not look like the skinny men from the village." The subordinate said. "They are quite well built, and they are carrying weapons such as swords and bows." The boss looked at his subordinate with doubting eyes, but he cannot just push away this news. "I understand." The boss said. "I will go there and chec

The bandits started to form two groups right after. They waited out until the designated time of the change of shifts had come. Like the informant said, at eight o’clock sharp the two men guarding the entrance left their posts. "Such diligent b*astards." The boss swore with a low voice.But after the two mercenary guards left, no one came to change their guard post. What the informant had said was only one had a stomachache, so there should be one other to replace the guard post. "This is odd." The boss said with the feeling of uneasiness. "What are we waiting for boss?" One of bandits asked. "Yeah, it looks like the other one is not coming." Another one of the bandits said.The boss still had second thoughts. He noticed something out of the ordinary and had an itchy feeling about it. "This is our chance boss." One of the bandits whispered to him. "Like you said, lady luck is on our side tonight."The boss nodded in agreement and pushed away the doubt in his mind. "Then let us s

[Ragnar’s POV]A few hours before the bandits’ attack I called on Robin who was leading the team of mercenaries to guard this village. It was best to make counter measures on the bandits that planned to attack tonight. My men and the mercenaries formed an alliance and made plans. "What did you say, your majesty?" Robin was surprised with information. "So those bandits are outside the village just waiting for nightfall to attack?!" "It is what I have said." I said with a calm demeanor. "The bandit group that are notorious of the crimes of thievery, rape and murder are outside of this village, just waiting to attack."Robin was clearly furious in learning of this news. "Those f*cking b*astrds did not learn their lesson from our past confrontations."Robin had recounted to us the many times they have confronted these notorious bandits. They were able to reduce the bandits’ numbers and always emerge victorious in their confrontation, but the bandits always escaped. Those that get caugh
