    Torren treated the priest to a kindly smile but shook his head. “I don’t see it fit to thank you for saving my life by endangering yours. So in thanks for your kindness, I will avoid making you a target.” he leaned his weight back against the creaking chair and regarded the priest evenly. “Just know, both the gold and the symbols of faith I carry were payments for tasks done in service of those who issue such things.

    It snarls, blood pouring from its mouth. It rumbles, lurching forward, jagged claws fixed on its target, and Achran swerves, ducking under the claws, avoiding the raging jaws.

    Sea Serpents. Real or Not? The topic of sea serpents is not something that has just come about in recent years. Actually, the first time sea serpents were revealed to us dates back to 30 BCE[3].
