“Why do you say us?” said Gus petulant glare to the letter. “It’s obviously just you he’s talking about. He doesn’t mention me once.” “And if you’d stayed quiet and acted like the wart you pretend to be whenever I leave the house, none of us would have been the wiser.” He opened his mouth … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 52

Raising a Hero–chapter 51
Gus and I did our best to go back to normal, and it worked for the most part. There was still a pane of awkwardness between us, like a window we wouldn’t touch for fear our fingers would smear it or we’d break it. But the feelings were still the same. My mission in this … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 51
Raising a Hero–chapter 50
Merry Christmas to my Beloved Readers! 3/3 The west gates to the city were open wide, as they always were. Mist’s hooves rang loudly on the stone streets.The lights in the inn were bright and warm when we arrived. I directed Miurian to the back door, which, thankfully, Mist was just small enough to pass … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 50
Raising a Hero-chapter 49
Merry Christmas my Beloved Readers! 2/3 I didn’t stop walking until I reached the forest. By then the sun had set and the navy of night was just slurping up the last of gray evening. The trees seemed just as welcoming as they had been when I had first woken up here, though I doubted … Continue reading Raising a Hero-chapter 49
Raising a Hero–chapter 48
Merry Christmas my beloved readers! 1/3 Gus wasn’t happy this time either. “What was there to think about? Just ask him for money, loads of it, enough to set us up for life.” “Because money is something that can easily be stolen from you. I was thinking it might be better to invest in skills … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 48
Raising a Hero–chapter 47
Two transfers of protein from new knights, two more sessions of bone smoosh and sweep, and the nobleman wasn’t recognizable form the twisted, defeated creature I’d first met in the temple. He literally jumped for joy, watching his own legs in fascination. “This is what it’s like to not feel pain,” he said, jumping again. … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 47
Raising a Hero–chapter 46
I didn’t know how much time passed. I lost awareness of my body for a time, wholly involved in sweeping out the proteins from the knight’s body to the nobleman’s. When I found the knight’s level reaching to just below the amount that Hal had, being an old man whose bone growth had little inciters … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 46
Raising a Hero–chapter 45
Two days later, after much research into the blood and bones of Milly, Hal, Gus, and Derrick (as well as plenty of practice of knowing my limit before getting a nosebleed), I found myself once more seated in Priest Miurian’s little room next to the bed, where the nobleman, today dressed in less austere shades … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 45
Raising a Hero–chapter 44
Gus wasn’t happy. “Are you stupid? Just telling that random woman that you’re a healer?” “I think she’d understand my situation, being a healer herself.” And if nothing else, I trusted priest Miurian to not let her in if he thought she’d go around turning me into the crown. “Where the hell do you get … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 44
Raising a Hero–chapter 43
A cordial atmosphere settled in on the room, pushing out the sour tension like a cool breeze blowing out a heavy smell. Gus and I were happy to listen while the nobleman and the older healer talked with occasional inserts from the knight. The cheese was hard and sharp, but I was hungry enough to … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 43
