I Rubbed My Neck

I rubbed my neck embarrassed, "It's kind of my inheritance."

"Waaahhhhh, why would your parents give you such an inheritance?" Arina ridiculed.

"This actually attacked during 'the great war of the outskirts' decades ago, I guess that's why the house is in shambles!" My mind tried to remember a part of my life that was buried away with my cold childhood memories.

"Oh, sorry to hear that", said Sam as if he knew exactly how serious the consequences of the war were. Most of our generation knew as the war took place around the time we were born.

But Arina had a different curiosity on her face, "So are you a Warchild? Just like Knox!"

My jaw dropped on how to answer that, Warchild were the special breeds as a result of stupid ritual. There were only five Warchilds who were smuggled out of the kingdom in an attempt to save their innocent lives.
