A spear dives deep through Asura’s chest, leaving just the tip to peek out the right side of his shoulderblade. In the air shockwaves ripple and swords clash, men, women and children scream as their loved ones are slain. “I had no idea that defying God end me up here.”
My name is Asura. I am the head of my village and the overseer of all religious matters. Every sunrise, my village is to lay d...

Echoes of screaming filled the corridor, bouncing off the damp cold stone of the castle walls. Aoife, a drinks maiden for the evenings celebration, clutched the jug of wine as she approached the banquet halls. The screams were accompanied with the smashing of plates and the crashing of tables.
