It didnt take the King long to realize the ancient one could have killed him from the beginning. The halfbreed was toying with him, demonstrating the difference in power between them.

The Kings eyes bulged redly as he realized the truth. But the only sound that escaped him was a sudden groan of pain. He looked down and found the curved sword of his enemy was stabbed into his stomach. He looked at the ancient one.

She had saved his life, and he owed her a great debt. And he couldnt help wondering how she had grown. He could not imagine that beautiful girl as an adult.

Even if she had grown a lot, she would still be smaller than a Kurkan woman. Surely small enough that he could carry her in his arms…
