Amuni; Scourge of Galamea

[Gold]

“How did this even happen.. I just wanted to sell some crystals.That loud mouth weak Rhoynish started this fuckery.. then her siblings descended upon me.. even a drakanite of all things.. what happened to the prideful warriors these races supposedly heralded in elden times for their honorary combat and unyielding courage.

With their era ending so did their ways..?

Surely.. it must have, even their arrogant auntie.. grandma..? Whatever she couldn’t stomach a lowly Lupine thrashing their ilk with ease. She scarred me for life.

All because I wouldn’t move,
or rather.. because they couldn’t make me.

It’s on sight.”

"Next time, you die." - Amuni to Hale


"A lot has happened since then.. I've been looking for a place to stay.
My Caretaker is too old, and I don't want him to fight with that family for my sake, we both agreed it was better that I just leave Galamea..

It sucks, but I'm learning more about the world as I explore.. I've run into beasts, knights, thief's, and priests..
I even met a man named Ira Dei, he was nice, he wanted to see what I was made of.. I lost, but he still accepted me..
He says I have potential to grow.

There isn't much for me here, I'm trying to find a way to contribute, my home training only stretches so far. I'm unsure of how to be useful.
In my search to find out what I'm good out, I came across one of those wretched Rhoy scum..
I waited politely, letting the other group have their pick at them first, when none showed interest in Hale..?

I attacked, brutally so, lodging a ruby red spear through his shoulder, the same way his aunt injured me with her terrifying spear of lightning.

He's going to die, next time.

I've learned that I don't understand the concept of family, what drives them to stick up for one another no matter how wrong the other is?
Its because I'm alone that I don't see the point in it, right?

Armani, I'm sorry, but you're literally blind, so I wont hold it against you.
It almost feels like family is a curse, a hex, forcing you to stand for something you don't even understand.

I'm hoping this crystal I've lodged in your head will connect you to me, so you feel my sorrow.

You don't even know what they did to anger me, yet you assumed it was just, because it was family.

Family.. family.. family... I'll end yours, each and everyone.

I'll break you free from your curse, Armani."

"Where the Hel am I..?" - Amuni

"Thing's have been moving quickly.. I ran into one of those Rhoy kids again, this one I wasn't bent on harming.. but he insisted on testing himself. So I obliged, It was a good way to blow off some steam. All in all, he wasn't a bad guy, I only feel that from his relatives. The girl.. that loud mouthed girl.. and the energy user. Whatever, this one.. err.. Nolan, I think that's what they called him.

He was different, it seemed like he just wanted to fight.. I just wish he never ganged up on me, maybe I'd see him in a different light.

I was watching some skirmish, a ton of New Tannen individuals up against beings I'd never seen before.


That's when he approached me. He was fighting against the Rhoy of Galamea as well, he also used crystal magic just like me. It almost felt like we were the same person, to top it all off he was even acquainted with Armani through battle, much like myself. We talked, I followed him blindly, and boy.. 

Did my eyes ever question what the hel I was seeing...

A headless man, a spirit he referred too as the spirit of Nyx, a Giant demon.. my friends father.. Ogre's, monsters, occultists..
Everywhere I looked, a strange face, an ominous feeling, where the Hel had my new friend brought me..?
I was terrified, unsure of how to speak in the face of creatures who seemed like they'd kill me without a second guess.

I spoke maybe two.. or three times, and before I knew it I was being claimed.

Is this family? Is this the start of the curse you were born into, Armani?

Or am I just hoping it is..."

"Doesn't matter what he is, it's my choice to protect him." - Amuni to Armani

"It's been a while, lots has gone on.. I'll keep it short for my sake, that and this upcoming battle, I want to go into it with nothing on my mind.
There were a couple hunting parties I was apart of, none really felt like my place to fight, I'm still learning the ways of the dreadwoods after all.

The blood tithes, the fishing rules.. there was a lot to take in. My father figure, Sir Crimson, something is off about him, I can't quiet pin it.. there is another, The Deity, he takes me out to hunt from time to time often, asking me my opinion rather than instructing me to attack others. He knows my desires, only revenge on that one family.
He knows about my goals, wanting to be a treasure hunter, collecting jewels and gems of great value.


I want something shiny, something to put in my den, did I mention I've taken up martial arts?
It's a dirty kind of style honestly, sand.. break dancing, a bunch of cheap tactics. 
I've even thought to blind Armani during a fight, but.. he's already blind so.. I kicked him in the mouth instead in our latest encounter.

I stopped him again, I'm waiting for my chance to get to the rest of his family..

Hopefully today, I catch them on the battle field."

"Wait... I lost..?!" - Amuni

Right before the raid on New Tannen took place Amuni was joking around with the younger population of the Dreadwoods.
They all joked about throwing one another to Osrona's gates, letting the army of star worshipers snatch their souls and send them to the skies above.
What was death like? What happened once you were felled in battle?
These things began to run across his mind as his first "raid" approached rather quickly.

"Armani?! I didn't expect him to be here, but it worked out.. well.. not really.
I was confident going into the fray, friends, allies, monsters I couldn't even beat were all around me.
I didn't think I would lose, I never needed anyone's help ever.. so it was a pretty brutal blow.
He'd gotten so strong, even sporting some flashy magi weapon. 

He's blind, but this thing..? It was so eerie.. It never lost sight of me.
It felt futile, using my speed to run all around the war zone,
Armani just kept moving forward, each shot he fired burned,
Slowed my typical reactions to a crawl... it was like he'd been made just to kill me.

Maybe I just thought that in my head.

I will give him credit, he did tell me he would become stronger than me soon, but I was too quick.. I got away..

Or did he let me.. get away..?

I'm so unsure of everything.. it sucks..
I've got to get stronger too.
I was far too comfortable."

Soon after the Lupine inquires with some others in the dreadwoods, they all become the monsters and demons they were because of their surroundings, the hardships they endured from where they came from. The young group chats about delving deeper into the dreadwoods, hopefully coming out as strong as monsters that the inhabitants of Esshar know and fear.
