CHAPTER 17 – THE EYES OF EVIL

Rufus delivered messages to Samesa from Mama Dragon about Chaos's increased activity and the losses they had sustained. Samesa was devastated by the news but not surprised. Subduing the tears and demons in the south had taken far longer than anticipated, and even her assigned party had lost two clerics before she was able to return to the western lands.

Upon her group’s return to the refugee camp, Samesa was pleased to find that Codeon had finally joined them, and the two devotees shared a warm greeting.

“Is Edmond here, too?” asked Samesa.

“No, I couldn’t persuade him to leave Antherose,” Codeon regretfully replied with sadness in her dark exotic eyes.

Samesa shook her head. Edmond had always been quite sensitive, and his devotion to their fallen comrade didn’t come as a surprise. Those two had once been very close.

“Mama Dragon kept me posted on all the casualties and Chaos activity while I was away. I’m so sorry I wasn’t here. What else has been going on?” asked Samesa.

“Well, one interesting thing has happened. I suppose you haven’t heard yet.”

“Heard what?” asked the priestess.

“Halea is pregnant with that wolf shifter’s child,” Codeon exclaimed.

“Really? I can’t believe such a thing is possible,” Samesa said in surprise.

“Well, I guess it is. But Halea seems happy, and while these wolves are strange, they’re treating us well, and they’re treating Halea well. That big lycan male obviously loves her. You should see how he fusses over her now that she’s with child,” Codeon said with a chuckle.

“That doesn’t surprise me. I once challenged him for Halea’s life, and I know for a fact that he’d do anything for her. I can’t wait to congratulate her.”

Though still compelled by the Goddess, Halea had built an extraordinary life for herself among the lycans, and Samesa was genuinely happy for her friend. Samesa tried to imagine what it must be like, but the idea of ever having children was of no interest to her as she was content to live her life in obedience to her oath. There were many different types of happiness in the world, and she knew that one way or another, being a warrior was the life path that suited her and gave her all the sense of purpose she needed.

Mama Dragon appeared and warmly greeted Samesa, whose face lit up at the sight of the motherly priestess.

“Thank Tiamet that you’ve returned. Were you able to subdue the last of the tears in the south?” asked Mama Dragon.

“Yes. We had a lot more cooperation from the southern pack this time. They’re still a bit standoffish, but I think their new leader has softened them to the idea of accepting our help. Some of them even helped us perform the funeral rites for Tim and Marie.”

“I’m relieved to hear the wolves weren’t giving you any trouble, especially considering there will be more missions. Don’t be surprised if you end up having to go back. The frequency of these tears has Master Uro worried,” Mama Dragon reported.
