All Chapters of The Jewel Of Humanity: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Welcome, Flossina your journey begins." The woman said smiling at her.Flossina felt her worry and fear melt away at the sound of the woman’s voice. It resonated within her."What journey? Where am I going?" She didn't like not being in control of her destiny. "Where am I?""You are in Amduat. I am Khepri. This is my brother Thoth. We are your companions for the journey." She explained.Those names sounded familiar to Flossina. Why? Then it came to her. These were the demigods. Gods her mother had told her stories about when she was a child. She never thought this land existed. It made her love and adoration for her mother heighten, because she had been teaching her even in the childhood stories about her faith. Now s

Delaev watched his longtime friend and Leader of the Collective, Marlon, stand over the unconscious young lady sleeping in his bed. Even in her unconscious state he could tell she was a uncommonly beautiful girl. He had come back to the castle to inform Marlon of the King's plans of venturing outside of the Kingdom with only his Valet and they needed to strike fast if they were to make their plan work, but was quickly roped into assisting him in finding a cure for this sleeping beauty. They had researched every book Marlon had on medicinal potions, spells with healing powers, and crux's, but none seemed to have the answer. They were at an impasse.They had fought beside one another too many times to count, and even in the face of danger never had he seen his friend so distraught. They had been Assassins for a Royal secre

Khepri took her hand in hers, brought it to her lips and kissed it. "For your kindness."She gently removed her hand and when she looked out onto the black sea she was surprised to find they were already at their destination.

She looked down and saw that her breasts and the v shape in the juncture of her thighs were visible now that the light shone so brightly on her. She felt naked. She saw Thoth awaited her and gently clasped her hips and swung her off the boat and carried her until they ached the shore, which was only a few feet. It was all so strange to her.

Flossina awoke with a jolt, coughing and sputtering, still thinking she was fighting against the cold, thick, black abyss Thoth had thrown her into. She soon realized she was back in the same bed inside of the castle she had awoke in days ago. She sat up and tried to get out bed. That small task seemed just the opposite for her and she instantly felt drained, emotionally and physically. She swung her legs off the bed and pressed her calves against the mattress for support as she stood up and walked over to the window beside the bed. She pulled back the animal skin that covered it. She was immediately greeted by the twinkling of stars in a clear midnight sky. She felt the lukewarm breeze against her clammy skin and she closed her eyes at it’s sweet caress. She used her hand to wipe her brow and felt cold metal brush up against her cheek. She looked and saw it was the same bracelet she had worn on her

He moved on to another plant and spoke once more. "He has hired more swords. They have pledged their allegiance to him in order to gain wealth. He has promised titles and treasure to those who would lend their shield and sword to Zuff. In the streets there is also talk of war. I overheard a soldier telling another that the King  means to lay siege to the neighboring Kingdom since their King has fallen ill and his son is much too young to take on the burden. He plans to mine Zuff and Glass Hollow. He is searching for jewels.""Jewels? He is a King. Surely his treasure chests are brimming with such things." Marlon pointed
