They suddenly came to a stop, however, and seemed to hesitate for a moment before beginning to walk on tip-toes. There were two pairs, one leading, the other following. Perhaps it’s silly to expect that those as powerful as ourselves could hope to otherwise live normally. But all of us Intoners have one bodily aspect which develops excessively compared to the rest, as a side-effect of our strength.

Even the touch of my own clothes upon my skin made me feel deeply uncomfortably… those days before I developed a method of coping were very hard, and weighed heavily on my psyche. I could no longer enjoy the taste of food due to it being too intense. Before long sounds and smells seemed to be assaulting me. But as I grew so did they, at a pace that far outstripped my physical development. Back then my senses were only slightly enhanced. All five of my senses, including taste, touch and smell are torturously sensitive. That’s right… it’s not just my eyesight and hearing that are pronounced. And while the smell of dust and must troubles my nose, it is nothing compared my usually having to take in the body odor of humans and animals. I quite like it in here the thick tomes muffle sounds from the outside, making it comfortably quiet. In the days following my return to the capital, I’ve been poring earnestly over the books in the cathedral library. And how could the innocent people know that their cries of elation were causing me, with my heightened senses, to feel as if my head were being split in two? It was my duty as an Intoner to symbolize order and peace having returned to the world, even if that meant being made a spectacle of. My mind, exhausted from battle, sorely needed a rest. I would have preferred to have snuck back after sunset I wanted to be alone. We were both being forced to parade our way from the harbor towards the cathedral. I am not fond of horses due to their strong odor, but in this case I could sympathize with the beast.

This caused them to cheer even louder, and I felt the animal tense beneath me. Not much time remained before the ‘day of promise’.įacing the people crowding the streets, I gave a wave from atop my steed. It wouldn’t be long before I had to call them here in any case. While having all five of us situated in the capital would surely be heartening to the citizens, it would not make sense to have them abandon the posts which I had only just assigned them to. It was all I could do to keep from covering my ears and falling to my knees… despite my being an Intoner.įor a moment I wished I had my sisters with me, but I shook those thoughts from my head. The only person struggling not to frown was me. How long they had prayed for this day to come! The people had at last been released from their torment. Why should they? The scourge of the tyrants lord had been eliminated, the nobility that fostered them dismantled. Yes… I could see clearly the sparkle in their eyes, the laughter pouring from their lips… not a single person wore a troubled or forced expression. With my keen eyesight, I could tell that every last smile was a genuine one.
