Part 3: Faction and Blood
From the perspective of Irek
The journey had just begun, yet it felt like we had been tracking for weeks. The Capital lay behind us, amazing to think just the loss of a figurehead could cause such chaos within a few days. Here we were, clad in bronze armour, spears sheathed, riding on the back of Feral Dire wolves trained by our predecessors. It felt good, almost thrilling to be back on the prowl.
"Squire!" Yelled Banquo at the top of his voice, jumping off of the back of his hound. I approached the racoon. He was a small creature, standing a bare three foot tall, brown of fur, and with a hunched back, his claws always centred on his blade, and his snout always sniffing for potential foes.
"Commander!" I responded
"Most of your future brothers will be required to prepare for the potential visitors, and to defend Laststand from potential attack from Citadel forces, I wish you to find your way to Blade's Edge and greet and escort the royal family."
As he said that, my tail began to wag. "Really commander?" I asked with anticipation
"Why of course, but don't disappoint me squire. Perform this task and I shall make you an official brother."
From the perspective of Alexander Phillipus
It had been at least a week since we left the capital. Mother had packed commoner clothes for us for our travels, and given us instructions. We were to travel to a place known as Blade's Edge. The Instructions stated we should follow the main road until we reach The Kraken God's Rage, then follow the Goldton road until we reach a swamp, then turn right and carry on travelling until we reach a fort.
Me and Thessa were walking down the main road. We had few stops, and those were only to feed on the rations or to set up camp.
"Hey Alex, do you remember when we were kittens?"
"Yeah, why?"
"We shared everything. Anything I knew, you knew too and vice versa. I miss those days."
"Well I share more with you than I do anyone else."
"Come on, I miss those days, and now it's just me and you, say what you think."
I sighed, "For you it's just me and you now, for me it's like that always."
Thessas face brightened up and she tried to stop herself from smiling "Explain further."
"To be entirely honest with you, I never felt anything towards anyone else. I know it sounds stupid, and I really think you're the only person I can share this with, but I've never felt any emotion towards anyone but you."
She hugged me "Don't worry about it; nobody has everything going for them." She smiled and sighed "At least you can talk to people and not give two shits what they think about you either way."
"Huh?" I responded
"I... I never really understood social interaction either, but I still care what people think of me. I find myself really fucking up social situations. That is an awful position to be in, believe me."
"Guess it's just Feline blood. Cats are designed to be independent creatures, guess it has its toll."
She thought for a while, and we stopped. "Do you remember the motto of House Sine?"
"Above the Ape, the Equestrian and even the Canine."
"None can match the purity of the feline."
"Guess they love their Ines don't they?" I joked
She laughed. "In all seriousness, imagine a world where the Felines were the dominant animal."
I stepped back. "You can't mean that!, you know the old myths of humanity. When humans were the dominant species they abused animals and destroyed themselves. Do you want Felines to be the future humans?"
"The human quality was ambition, and ambition can turn in to fanaticism very easily, whereas Felines as a species are different. We are independent creatures that work in their own way rather than simply adapting to what others tell them. If felines dominated the world, the other animals would simply just accept their own paths, and with everyone going there own ways, wars would not take place, as there would be no nations to fight them." "Now that you explain it, it does kind of make sense, though I'm not entirely sure that I entirely agree with such a theory. We would have to impose feline blood on to others for such to work."
"Not necessarily, we would only have to strengthen our own blood."
I nodded and we carried on walking. At the time such a conversation seemed like just a minor exchange of ideas. I had no idea how far it would go.
From the Perspective of Baimet Cwupa
I sat on my levitating Golden Throne in the great castle hall. Water flowed down from the front, allowing me to breathe. Before me, in the pool, stood another dolphin, he seemed much like me, but he sat on no throne, and was obviously part of the common beasts.
"You stand before Lord Baimet, leader of House Cwupa and lord of Crystalport please state your business."
"M' Lord, I ran a small temple to The Crowned One just outside Crystalport where I would give blessings to your troops before battle, however since the Civil War began, Royalist troops destroyed my temple and all of my holy symbols. I'm asking for your help m' lord."
"I believe being Pious is a great trait, as the gods always watch over our backs. For this reason, I shall grant you all the resources necessary to rebuild the temple, and I shall try and persuade one of my knights to serve the temple as a paladin to make sure such a thing doesn't happen again."
His began to smile, and shake with the overwhelming nature of it. "Thank you so much M' lord, I promise I shall repay you in future." He left the room. That was the last petition of the day. I levitated the throne, and began moving it further down in to my private chambers.
My Private Chambers were half covered in water, though it was just deep enough to swim in. Since I was an aquatic creature, me and my wife both had to sleep in separate beds, only sharing the same one when it was deemed necessary for reproductive purposes.
My wife was Hapadel Ette. She was, as many guessed, not from Marcewes, or even from Central part of the world for that matter. House Ette was in fact was one of the houses from The Lonan Empire to the east. The marriage was only arranged as a political marriage to increase relations between The Centre and The East, though overtime I started to grow fond of her, and I think she started to grow fond of me. Like most of the sentient creatures to the east, she was a reptile, a snake in fact. She possessed most of the anatomy of other species, but with no arms or legs, and with a long, prehensile tail instead.
"I sssssense ssssomething is wrong." She asked, her eyes widening and her head tilted, she looked in to my eyes, and though I wasn't as familiar with the emotions of reptiles, I sensed that she genuinely cared.
"You sensed correct." "Pleassssse, I care about you, explain to me."
"I don't think supporting House Craysa was such a good idea, I've started far more conflict than I intended, and now I'm having to fight in a war."
"Phirssss didn't care for you, I assure you. Sure he acted kind towardssss you, but that wasssss only a cover up. In the hardest of times, did he ever back you up? , did he ever reinforce your troopsssss in the battlessss against The Great Ssssstatessss? He lissssstened to the petitionssssss of other lordsssss, but not once did he lisssssten to yoursssss. He Ssssaw Crysssstalport assssss more of a joke than a city."
"Is that really a good enough reason to be responsible to start a war, because I wasn't given the respect I deserved? Should that really be a reason for homes to be destroyed and for my people to die?"
"Even if it issssn't enough, surely Phirssssssss Phillipussssss couldn't have been the true leader of hissssss house, and would it really be wisssssse to allow a ussssurper to have the throne?"
She pulled back a string, and dropped her robes, revealing her well rounded and large breasts, and a loose but hairy vagina. "We must try again for an heir. One to lead Crystalport well." She pulled down my toga, and kissed me on the lips
She slowly massaged my dick with her breasts, moving up and down on it in an extremely arousing way. I felt so hard. I grabbed on to and rubbed her breasts, which seemed beautiful in texture, before she placed her vagina around my dick, and rode up and down, faster and faster. Already the stimulation and the pleasure purely produced by the building up was extraordinary, I just focused on her extraordinary breasts moving up and down, until I suddenly felt a push, feeling almost peaceful, as cum was coming out. The whole incredible experience ended spectacularly.
From the perspective of Thessalonike Phillipus
The day passed so quickly, and night had fallen. Me and Alex were walking along the road, when it split in two. A large lake appeared in front of the split road, and over in the far corner was a waterfall. I had only read about waterfalls before, but seeing it close up really made a difference. The water fell so clearly, and filled up the lake, and whenever the lake overflowed, it would all tip in to a river left of it. Behind the waterfall, I could make out four or five thin entrances to a deep looking cave. On the side of the lake laid a sign saying "The Kraken God's Rage.", a signpost pointed in two directions, the one to the left read "Crystalport", and the one to the right read "Goldton"
"Hey Alex, I think since we reached our first destination, we should probably set up camp for the night."
"Alright then." He responded, we both took off our backpacks, and started to get out sleeping bags.
Briefly in the dark, I could make out the shapes of two bears. They were both naturally very large creatures, but in front of them stood an even bigger creature, big enough to use us as longswords. As they stepped closer, I could make out their figures a lot more; they were two grizzly bears, and a cave bear.
I whispered to Alex, "I swear there are no Cave Bears in Marcewes."
They stepped closer. One of the Grizzlies stepped right forwards, and held up Alex's Chin. Alex put his hand on his blade, ready to unsheathe. The bear growled, "This one will make an excellent slave for Zobor.", he then leant in and grabbed me, rubbing my breasts in an uncomfortable way, "And this one will be entertainment for the way back." He growled and laughed. I felt myself tremble at being held by this powerful bear in such a manner. Alex drew his sword, "Let her go fuckface!" he yelled.
The Bear laughed. "Looks like we've got a fighter over here. He'll be no good for Zobor. Tell you what little swordsman; we haven't seen a face as pretty as this one's face in days, let us have a go at her and we'll let you free." Both he and the other grizzly laughed. The Cave bear didn't laugh, but rather just stared at me, and somehow was the most intimidating of them all.
Alex, before anyone could react, stabbed the grizzly who had a hold of me in the back, allowing me to go free. The two other bears looked in rage, and each drew a battleaxe.
