Shattered Jar

Cerlius frowned as he knocked on Doevm's door for the third time. "Are you in there, brother?" There was still no response.

'He must still be angry,' he thought. There was even a new crack in the door, as if someone had struck it with all their might.

"Cerlius," Eric called out as he walked down the narrow halls of the Draken household. He always strutted around the place as if it was his home too. It practically was. He spent more time there than he did at the War Monks' monastery. "Are you as bored as I am?"

Eric pulled his white hood back. Two bags sat below his tired brown eyes. Cerlius never asked how Eric had gotten his many scars. The apprentice War Monk had accidentally let it slip while describing how he had painstakingly built up his large muscles. The bald head and pale skin on the other hand, Cerlius always made sure to poke fun at them.
