Chapter 9 – Wartime Diplomacy
The first thing Shaelith noticed when she woke up was the unfamiliar scent of pine resin and damp forest floor, and it was cold, at least relatively. Right. Sylvyn border fort. Not at home. Beside her, Ryzinre was breathing evenly, even though her face was half covered by her long silverish hair. The young woman from a minor house associated with House Vyrnara, who was one of the servants accompanying Shaelith, had proven to be a pleasant traveling companion. She was uncomplicated, loyal, good in…-

Chapter 10 – The Ambush
The first arrows struck them like a hailstorm full of sharp teeth. Shaelith reacted instinctively, activated her defensive glyphs and just the blink of an eye later purple energy danced across her skin and formed a shimmering barrier around them. "Shields up!" the guard captain yelled, but his order came a second too late. One of the arrows with the strange glowing crimson runes managed to penetrate the magical shield and a Shaeravyn guard staggered back while staring in disbelief at the shaft sticking…-

Chapter 11 – Caged
Shaelith didn't know how long they had marched them, stumbling, until they arrived at the goblin lair. It felt like days. The world seemed to consist of nothing but musty darkness and the stench of unwashed goblin bodies. Shaelith stumbled forward, blind beneath the stinking sack, her bare feet slipping over damp ground.The background noise around her was overwhelming, hundreds of goblin voices screeching, laughing, arguing with each other. Somewhere, meat sizzled over an open fire, the smell mingling…-

Chapter 12 – The Hero
That's Ben, I swear to God. It's definitely Ben. But how? Since when is he- Shaelith forced her racing thoughts to a halt. The grotesque absurdity of Ben Blomquist, standing in front of herlike some hunk from one of his Isekai animes,had to wait. Getting out of this mess had priority. Later. I can think later about why Big Ben Blumpkin now looks like the cover boy of a bodybuilding magazine. She made the decision in a split second. Whatever had brought him here, however this fucked-up situation…-

Chapter 2 – Mushroom Metropolis
What. The. Hell. His little body began to tremble, overwhelmed by impressions and feelings he couldn't categorize. Jacob tried to think clearly, but his brain refused to process the situation. Okay, let's summarize this. I just drowned. Then... nothing? And now I'm a toddler in the city of glowing mushrooms. With... purple mushroom... people? Sure. Perfectly normal. Everyday situation. Happens in the best families. He looked at his tiny hands. They were violet. Oh. The tall figure who had…-

Chapter 4 – Certified Sorceress
"Groff'fuffbar nark buffra." Vyriz's pronunciation was so bad that it could probably even pass for deliberate poetry among goblins. "Groff'fu-ffar," Jacob corrected automatically, leaning his head against Vyriz's shoulder. The embroidered cushions they lounged on were pleasantly cool against his bare calf, one of the few parts of his body his simple wrap-around dress didn't cover. "More saliva on the second F. Imagine spitting out a particularly tough mushroom." "Charming." Vyriz grimaced. "And that…-

"If you don't take your arm off me right now," she hissed quietly enough so as not to wake the sleeping women around her, "you won't have it for much longer." Benderast froze. "I just thought-" "You thought? Is that so?" Shaelith turned her head just enough to give him a withering look. Her lavender eyes shimmered dangerously in the dim firelight. "I doubt it. What were you thinking? That it was a good idea toget it on with me in between a dozen traumatized women who have just been rescued from a goblin…

Chapter 16 – Supply and Demand
Shaelith stood in the guest quarters and looked at the motley crew standing before her with exactly the same feeling she always had when she sent one of the problem students off to take the Sorceress exam. If you were unlucky, you were seeing them for the last time. "So, once again," she said in Tulvian, her arms crossed in front of her chest. "You only speak when you are directly addressed. You don't stare at anyone, especially not the Matriarchs. You don't make demands, you don't issue challenges, and…-

Chapter 17 – The Impossible Bid
"I want her." For three heartbeats, there was absolute silence. The kind of silence that occurs when an entire room full of people tries to comprehend whether they just heard correctly, the kind of silence that screamed, "Did he really just say that?" Surprisingly, it was Xarini Rynalazel who broke the silence. She was, of course, no friend of House Vyrnara, let alone Shaelith herself, but like most Shaeravyn, she had very definite ideas about the superiority of the Shaeravyn over other races, especially…-
