Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
Balor's Punishment
"Cleaning shields until you return!" exclaimed Zuvowang. "That is a little bit harsh don't you think?"
"Come now, Gard, he's just a child." Commented Dalv.
"It is my decision." Stated Gard as they stood at the gates of Wilusa as the suns set. He would be leaving for his search soon. "I trust him to clean shields more than I do weapons. You're less likely to cut yourself on a shield. We Evabon might have a high tolerance for pain but I still do not want him to hurt himself. What punishment would you two have chosen?"
Zuvowang and Dalv were both silent. They were not sure what they would have chosen.
"Brigid is to be washing the table in our hall for a month." Stated Zuvowang. "I could make sure Balor doesn't shirk on his chores."
"Either of you making sure will be enough." Said Gard, his good eye looking up to the final sun beginning to set. "Of course searching for a ring on a mountain is hardly the type of mission I was hoping for. It is a mission nonetheless."
"Word is coming from the Labinnac territory of a new High Warlord." Dalv opened the gate and looked out the Labinnac camp. They were all huddled around fires. "You know what that means don't you? Some winged monstrosity that looks more like a corpse than normal Labinnac do!"
"Ha!" Zuvowang laughed as he stroked his beard. "Another leader who thinks that if any of his men remain still while he fights then they are all dead men."
"Another leader who believes himself to be the moon, that believes himself to be the world, that believes himself to be a god." Gard laughed. "The spirits are all powerful! A High Warlord is not one of them."
"The High Warlord is considered a lesser god." Corrected Dalv.
"Whatever he is considered he has to face us." Said Gard. The sun had almost set. "I will leave now and return with the ring, something to throw into the spoils hungry horde."
