Chapter 16: The Seed of hatred

The sky started to pour heavily with chilly wind making sending shiver to everyone backbone.

As Arin stood back near a sturdy oak tree, his back pressed against its rough bark for support, he watched the unsettling scene unfold before him. The bandits, their cheers echoing through the clearing, rallied around their vice leader with unwavering loyalty, their voices raised in anticipation of the impending confrontation.

But amidst the chaos and turmoil of the battlefield, Arin found himself grappling with his own inner turmoil. The memory of the old woman, who had shown him kindness and affection in the midst of chaos, weighed heavily on his mind. Despite their brief encounter, she had treated him with the warmth and tenderness of a grandmother, leaving an indelible impression upon his heart.

For Arin, who had spent much of his life alone and adrift in the world, the old woman's unexpected kindness had touched something deep within him—a longing for connection and belonging that he had long thought buried beneath the weight of his own solitude. And now, as he watched the bandits prepare to do battle with their vice leader, he felt a fierce determination stir within him to protect those who had shown him kindness, no matter the cost.

But as the bandits cheered , their voices rising in a noise of excitement, Arin knew that the time for action had come. With a steely resolve, he pushed aside his inner turmoil and focused on the task at hand, steeling himself for the confrontation that lay ahead.

Meanwhile, the bandits, emboldened by the presence of their vice leader, exchanged boasts and taunts amongst themselves, their voices carrying across the clearing with a mixture of bravado and arrogance.

"Look at 'im go, ain't he a sight to behold!" one bandit exclaimed, his voice tinged with admiration as he watched their vice leader fighting the cloak figure.

"Aye, that he is," another bandit agreed, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. "No one dares to challenge him, not even the boss himself!"

The bandits laughed and cheered, their spirits buoyed by the prospect of witnessing their vice leader emerge victorious against all challengers. But little did they know that Arin, with his quiet strength and unwavering determination, stood ready to defy them and protect those who had shown him kindness, no matter the cost.

As the vice leader and the cloak figure continued to exchange blows in their intense duel, their movements fluid and precise, the bandit leader's voice cut through the tension like a knife.

"I think it's clear that this duel will not be resolved anytime soon," he declared, his tone tinged with impatience. "Boys, take care of the remaining one first .Let Rein handle this."

The bandits, their eyes gleaming with anticipation, nodded eagerly in response to their leader's command. With a chorus of shouts and cheers, they surged forward, their weapons raised high as they descended upon Arin and his companions with ruthless efficiency.

Arin's heart sank as he watched the bandits advance, their intentions clear as they sought to overwhelm the outnumbered travelers with sheer force of numbers. But even in the face of overwhelming odds, he refused to back down, his resolve unbroken as he prepared to defend himself and his allies against the relentless onslaught.

Meanwhile, the cloak figure and the vice leader continued their duel unabated, their clash of blades echoing through the clearing as they fought with all the skill and determination they could muster. Though the odds were stacked against them, they held their ground with unwavering resolve, each refusing to yield to the other in their fierce struggle for dominance.

As the battle raged on, Arin knew that the time for action was now. With a steely resolve, he rallied his companions to arms, urging them to stand firm against the tide of violence and aggression that threatened to engulf them all.
