A new spring had blossomed again, and on the other end of the ever-shifting, ever-changing forest, the humans had finally forged their way through.
They were expanding, colonizing, the birth of a brand new nation unfolding before history's eyes, and large ships brimmed the coastlines where many more vessels would migrate from across the vast seas.
Before human settlements and humble townships scattered the plains and mounds of the land, then gradually they began to grow, multiply, a civilization flourishing, prospering…
A civilization taking.
The lie of the land steadily began to shift, as boundaries and territories inevitably crossed and clashed. Frieden Rike was always rife with conflict. The expansive fields of green always drenched and soiled in an endless downpour of warm red - lush forests, and crystal-clear streams, now serving only as grim reminders of what once was.
I'm a-okay now, folks! I took a break yesterday from writing and that seem to have done the trick. Hooray!
Though I've noticed my publishing times have gotten quite flimsy as of late... I'll try my best to rectify that issue there.
At any rate, here's the next chapter in it's full glory, and I hope you guys enjoyed it and can forgive me for my - let's just say - lackadaisical performance as of late. Writing Elvish is a pain, I have this still in-progress docs of the Elvish language I made, and always referring to it is killing my mind.
PS: I just realized I've been mispelling 'Eshwlyn' alot throughout this entire book. Go ahead and count it, it's impossible. I tried.
