FOREVER KNIGHTS: #2 Rise of the King of Assassins

Boar's Tusk Tavern, Grier Country and Netherland Border

TEVERIUS

Deragan’s Knights had done as bid.

Marcus Teverius lead in hunting down the birth of the infants. Emerging from the exact locations their shining souls fell across the sky to land.

Infant girls.

Once a month he and Sebastian would meet for a night of drinking and reveling then head out with the morning light, sharing the map, to go check on the Watcher children. Complete with splitting headaches.

At least for me, anyway. Teverius thought as they took the shape of feral beasts, dark eyes flashing in the night as their quiet paws hit the dirt. Crossing over moonlit meadows.

They passed houses, cottages, and castles checking for the scent of the tiny girls.

Then lurking until they could catch candlelit glimpses of their young faces.

Afterward with happy waves and promises for next month’s visit they’d part ways and return homeward.

Where I can safely recuperate from drinking with Bast.
