Shadows Of A Falling Empire

1.Yokgu traversed Raborg forest to the clearing where he practiced martial arts on a balmy Fruitrich afternoon. Raborg was the uncontested territory of the Untamed, led by Mazoga, a high priestess of Unja, goddess of pleasures. The tenets of Unja stressed unity and harmonious relations among all beings, the development of the intellect, and sensuality. Raised in the faith more common to orcs, Dygnos, god of war and victory, and knowing firsthand of that temple?s corruption and cruelty, Yokgu was Mazoga?s first convert upon her return from Drulbo En. As he was the Trusted Sentinel of the Untamed, everyone followed suit immediately.Mazoga was the daughter of Vakmu, one of the reform-minded chieftains who sat on the Honored Council. After he led many suns? worth of deliberations, the Honored Council reached a recent consensus: orcs were free to worship whatever god they chose and it was best to oblige the growing sentiment that intertribal warfare cease immediately. The battles only seemed to benefit the crowns, and the crowns, in the growing sentiment among all the peoples of the Octavian Empire, were to be damned.Yokgu arrived at the perimeter of groves and thickets of whisper pine clusters, where the sharp, sweet pinene and citrus aromas of the trees mingled with the powdery fragrance of phoenix violets and nascent intoxication of wild mage?s weed. A stump had been carved to make a seat and branches had been lashed together into a makeshift rack. He savored several deep breaths before a long swig from the flagon of ginger root brew he carried, surveying the area, then leaning his halberd against a nearby tree. He removed the satchel and flagons from around his shoulders, unbuckled his sword belt, shucked his loin cloth, and hung them all on their respective places on the rack before sitting. The reputation of the Untamed afforded them a marked degree of security in the forest.Yokgu already looked the other way when it came to how his troops pleasured themselves - as long as force wasn?t involved. That was a behavior he found intolerable in the Dygnos priesthood where he perfected his mercilessly unforgiving fighting style on those who offended his sensibilities. He entered the temple in his eighth year accompanying his father, with his coaching, and by developing his own unique fighting style through diligent and dedicated study, he defeated the head abbot of his native northern temple in his fortieth. The abbots of the remaining temples arrived to duel. Once they were defeated, Yokgu was summoned to Drulbo En by Vakmu to teach his fighting Emek Escort styles to the Untamed, who were already feared and famed as an effective cavalry.Now, in his 53rd sun and still maintaining a monastic existence, his immediate thoughts drifted into a memory collage of an afternoon spent in a room over The Nasty Sun tavern to arouse him as the breeze cooled the sweat on his torso. Fully tumescent, and after several moments of stroking with varying lengths, speeds, and rhythms, he heard a slow, even-paced rustle from another path and a soft gasp of surprise before the footsteps gingerly attempted to change direction. Yokgu reached for his loincloth, advising. ?It will be easier for you to pass here than go around.?An embarrassed elven initiate of Krilena, emerged from the trees, lowering the hood on her penitent?s robe. ?I, I was going to the ruins to meditate on, on my vow of chastity.?As he was well-traveled and a frequent brothel visitor, Yukgo was certain the initiate was from one of the high-born elven families of the Oceraviel Empire. Centuries of arranged intermarriage left them with an indicative angled hook shape to the tip of their ears and an unusually austere and disciplined composure. However, scandals ran rampant in their circle and many turned to the temples of Krilena seeking penance for lapsed faith after sating whatever desire overtook them. The wearing of the perpetually tormenting penitent?s robe was reserved for incorrigible offenders, further transgression was met with floggings. Yet, Vulwin Hergella weighed the penalty considerably against what she saw that laid beneath Yokgu?s loincloth.?We were told at the temple that was an orc horde in this forest but I?ve never seen any of you here. Please, excuse me for intruding.? She stood enthralled. Yokgu nodded and gestured for her to pass, averting his eyes to avoid further discomfort. Vulwin was lost in calculating risks to rewards until becoming sharply aware of the very explicit details she made in a pact with Urau, the true god of magic, by a prickling sensation between her legs that caused her to suck her breath in. Yokgu glanced up and gestured again for the initiate to pass with a bit more insistence.?I?m sorry for staring,? Vulwin stammered between short, shallow breaths before finding her resolve. ?But, could you continue with what you were doing??The robe rendered her formless. Her circlet was of modest uprese with Krilena?s sigil on the diadem, rested over an oval-shaped face. Enticing upturned penny eyes shimmered with lust, a retroussé Emek Escort Bayan nose, and round lips with a slight pucker aimed at him with deliberate sensuality.?It has been 1 sun and 10 moons since I?ve taken my vows again. Looking at you relieves me.?Yokgu shrugged and removed his loincloth impartially once he ascertained no threat was nearby. Vulwin?s eyes widened and jaw dropped in fascination as Yokgu?s moss and slate-flecked cock returned to its previously formidable erect state of stout girth, sufficient and efficient extent. He wasn?t more than 1.82 meters in height and 99 kilos of sinuously defined, proportional muscles pulsing in time and reaction with the stroking action of his gnarled but oddly beautiful fist. Vulwin noted how at peace he was in the forest. He felt safe enough to close his eyes and revel in a memory of someone, somewhere. In the afternoon light, she noted the varying shades of green and grey in his skin, he resembled the best erotic illusions of Sozin.Vulwin?s head swam in the frenzy of everything forbidden for the better part of her life being within easy reach. The robe, woven from burlap, cliff bite, and spitfire hedge was clumsily yet quickly shucked and discarded immediately. The Fruitrich breeze through the crawly gown she wore underneath was a welcome sensation, even more so once doffed. She sat on a nearby rock and placed a hand under the front of the loin cloth she wore, masturbating her delicately erect cock with practiced, controlled, delicate movements as to not disturb the intricate knotting that held it together, leaving evidence of transgression.Vulwin sighed softly in relief, disrupting Yukgo?s memory and soon realized she was being watched. She reveled in the glints of unbridled desire glinting in Yukgo?s eyes for her. Yukgo found her gamine yet curvaceous form, conic yet full, perky breasts most especially pleasing as they rose and fall with her excited breaths. She had a knowing carnality beneath her apparently youthful form, stretching her shapely legs to attract his eyes and tease ?Do you see something you like, liege??Until that moment, where Yukgov grunted and restrained himself from stepping toward her, Vulwin had only seen the naked scorn of the older priestesses of Krilena, especially Head Abbess Ecaeris Waesrel. She took a particular sadistic glee in flogging reprobates until they confessed their sins.On the other and far more convincing hand, Urau had kept to their end of the pact. ?Let me assure you of my intentions.? Vulwin gestured for Yukgo to Escort Emek stand closer and knelt in front of his rigidity, taking it in her eager hand, parting her lips to whisper, ?Put this in my mouth,? rounding her lips and looking up at him seductively.Yukgo guided his member into her, she placed her hands on his hips to swallow him whole. He groaned with her deft application of suction and the coursing of her tongue over the details of his member. Vulwin shifted her grasp to his buttocks to push him deeper into her mouth, jouncing her head with varying speeds. His shuddering caused her to close her eyes and whimper. She deftly plunged her ring and middle fingers in the space between his gonads and ass, spurring him to prod into her. He placed his hands behind her head and at the nape of her neck as she scraped his mast with her teeth. He could no longer quell his nascent eruption that she deftly consumed, teasing his member collapsing steadily with her teeth and tongue until she slowly withdrew her lips from it.Vulwin got to her feet, wiping a trickle of saliva off her face with one hand and deftly fondling Yukgo?s cock and gonads with the other. ?What is your name?? she inquired.?Yukgo.? He gasped, while with her free hand, she examined the ornate Untamed talisman carved from scoerhil with gretrium inlays hanging from beaded leather straps around his neck. It lacked the jewels found in a chieftain?s talisman signifying tribal alliances, nonetheless, it indicated he was of very high rank.?Vulwin Roralei,? she cooed in his ear invitingly, then examined the intricate gretrium and iodamellite pendant of Unja on the same strap. ?How long have you been celibate??Yukgo eyed her, intrigued how she knew that. ?Seven moons are required to prepare as beadle. I have maintained the practice for to meditate on our codices.??Oh?? Vulwin?s eyes widened in interest. ?I have committed heresy against the faith of the empire and seek sanctuary. Let me serve as a temple whore.??Hmm.? Yukgo scowled at her suspiciously. ?You planned this, didn?t you???No,? she smiled proudly. ?I am consecrated to Urau, the true god of magic, by the will of Most Esteemed High Crone Phibusa the Heretic.? Vulwin had never seen an orc register surprise in her life, giggling when she realized he was familiar with an elder of her tribe and family.?I asked for intercession and they have spoken to Nedione who has placed you on my Path. I must commit heresy in his name and seek the sanctuary of temple built on an ancient faith. You are a priest of Unja, your temples are built on the ruins of Nedione, I seek sanctuary and initiation.??I can grant you sanctuary but initiation is not up to me. But,? arousal soon tingled again in Yukgo?s organ from Vulwin?s deft manipulations, ?I will attest to your knowledge of the erotic arts.?
