The Energist - Chapter Four
Author's Notes Sorry, this is super rushed but I wanted to get a chapter out. :) CHAPTER FOUR It was less than a day’s walk to Landon, Loire’s capital and pride and joy. Naria had made the journey from Averas beginning promptly at dawn. She did not know what to expect; she had never visited Landon before, but had heard much about its vastness and grandeur. As soon as the gates were opened and Naria entered the vast city, she was consequently overwhelmed, much more so than when she entered Averas. The city was already bustling with people for the day’s market and trade. Here and there, wagons and horses passed by, carrying produce or g...

The Energist - Chapter Three
CHAPTER THREE For a second Aleckz did not know what to do and stood frozen to the spot, but Vanessa’s alarmed expression soon grounded Aleckz back to reality. She tried to speak, but only crimson blood gurgled out of her mouth and dripped onto her blouse, flowering red petals into the cream colored fabric. Aleckz shushed her, pulled her into his arms, and began to conjure what he knew of medical alchemy, hoping it would be enough to save her. Holy energy, the most stable of the base energies, was the principal energy type for alchemical medicine. He tore open Vanessa’s blouse and discovered an open gash on her side bleeding profusely. ...

The Energist - Chapter Two
Chapter Two When Naria left Fuschia Academy, she had parted with her friends with tearful goodbyes, wished the best of luck to her friend Koriander who was staying at the academy to teach, and set off to discover what she wanted to do with her life.She knew she would have to return home to Dresden to see her family and her little brother whom she missed very dearly, but her hometown, Fraen, was on the southern part of the kingdom, even further south than Darfur City - a great distance from the northern academy. It would be wasteful if she did not take the time to see the kingdom, so she decided to take a roundabout way home. Naria had nev...

The Energist - Chapter One
Author's Notes Hello! If you are a new reader, there are actually two prologues in The Energist before the first chapter. You can find the links in the description.If you are here from my YouTube channel, this story is set in the same world as my animated series, Sovereign, except several hundred years in the future. We are now in the Age of Alchemy, rather than the Age of Mercenaries. Chapter One With the fall of the Dehlian monarchy, came a time of unrest and confusion. Though revolutionaries had promised change, it was not the hope that many citizens had wanted. There was no clear governing body as people fought for power and contr...

The Energist - Prologue II
PROLOGUE II (10 years ago) Childrens’ voices and laughter could be heard all around the town, for it was the first official day of spring, and the first day Mother Jhyata, the goddess of nature, blessed the kingdom with her warmth for several months. The aroma of life, of morning dew and newfound sprouts and budding leaves, saturated the air with its sweet scent.The winter had been rough. The stormy weather and the people of Dehlia’s dissent with the kingdom’s current state was a dangerous combination. Words of rebellion were whispered among men in taverns and in passing that traveled from the eastern border to its shared border with Lo...
Author's Notes The location setting is set in the same world of the series, Sovereign. You might notice that I have spelled "alchemist" like "alchemyst" and it's just going to be the alternative way that I decided to spell it. :) PROLOGUE I (18 years ago) There is always something to be heard or seen in the bright, up-and-coming town of Averas, a town known for its brilliance in the science of alchemy. It is home to the finest school for alchemysts - Whitewreath Academy - which harbors the most extensive research library in the continent, far outshining even the Royal Court’s library in the nearby Kingdom of Dehlia. Averas was certainly...
