Exit Reality II

Book excerpt: The King of Crimson breathed again and exclaimed how displeased he was with the state of his army's soldiers. They have eaten and drank during the century of peace and become weak and content in life. This was good in the time of peace but he wanted to expand his dominion further and needed new, hungry and ravenous young men whose ambition knows no bounds, only the sky and the bloody horizons can fill their empty stomachs. Julius planned a voyage to the Isles of the Kraken, to see the islanders and the druids. He wanted to see if there were young strong boys who were not raised to be slobs and boring, but ambitious men of battle and hardship, and of course riches. The spoils of war could turn anyone into a killer in an instant. The jealousy and envy inside the human heart is a fact proven by history time and time again and again. He wanted to sail his longship with the creme of the crop of his men and show them their skills in hope that they can impress them and make them join their cause, and fight alongside one another in a war in the South. Julius arranged for his servants to ready the ships, five of them to be exact, and summoned Mark Anthoni to give commands to their best warriors. Julius would of course lead the voyage to the isles, so he can show off his god-given skills and talent with fire, ice, nature and thunder. He was a God after all, and who else better to impress young men? None.
