Role

Chapter 7

I've recently slain Kostyan, the mighty Stygian Juggernaut. Perhaps, what I
said to an applicant Vouizount can be true even for one as mighty as the
Emperor. If we only have the spirit to fight, we may just prevail. Just as
I used to think the dark adventurers who raided Loch Terradian sometimes
were insurmountably powerful, I now see that I can take them down, with all
my training. Regardless, I must remain wary of Kostyan, who fell only
because he chose to take the risk. Out of a grudging respect I left him
nearly all his things. The bloodstone rings were tempting though. I left
them.
