Crimson liquid spured from its host; staining the pure-white snow. The freezing high passes of the north edge of the world is filled with both blizzards, and sickly stench of rotten corpses blown by the wind. The Rotten fumes ascends from the Bonewall, to the southern crags of the frostlands where death ruled.
Galak, stood proudly as he looked down at his prey. He never wanted to kill humans for their bones really. No, he never kill like the others do. Galak did not care about the Bonewall truth be told. Nor he hunted humans to gain favor with the Jarl.
But why does he hunt them down? A question he had been asking himself since his first hume prey. It was many years ago when the old Jarl khufken allowed him to join the raiding pack to guard the southern pass. The Jarl presented him a battle axe. With dreadwood handle, and Dragonbone blade. It was a symbol of manhood. To be given a weapon is to belong to the ranks of the mighty warrior class; called the Ravengers.
It was his first raid, the very day he buried the boy, and returned home as a fully pledged Demi. The day he and Berix; his axe met. His first grip, his first swing, his first scar, his first breath of air.
It was an unusual pack, only five Ravengers. Packs should be composed of six ravengers. But since their alpha's wife gave birth to a boy; the leader should stay in his hearth for four moons. It would be foolish to upset the gods. The beta led the hunters in his stead. More like a pack of four; since the beta still feels that Galak does not count as a warrior worthy of a title ravenger yet.
The blizzard was merciless. Galak can feel that his toes were beginning to numb beneath his leather boots. The snow was waist deep even for Giants such as the demi. It was impossible to hear the beta's voice from up ahead as the blizzard whistles and howls them to submission.
Vision was impaired. He can only see the back of the ravenger in front of him, and nothing else. His leather armour is beginning to submit to the cold, and his artic wolf helm is being filled with both snow and hail.
The blizzard was so strong that he cant even hear his bone shoulder-pads click as he shove through the thick sea of snow. Those bone pads were meant to be heard. Sneakiness is not a Demi trait. They want their enemies to hear them coming. They want their prey to know whose after them. They want their victims to remember them as the last thing they saw before entering Arad dum. Or what humans call; the afterlife.
Amidst the chaotic wind, his keen ears can still hear the ravenger in font of him faintly. Complaining why the Jarl still insists on raiding eastward, given that these past few summers; raiders return home with nothing but empty sacks and storm beaten longboats.
"Where else should we raid" Galak replied loudly to be heard.
"We should just head north!' the ravenger said.
'There is nothing north but ice brother'
'What does a boy like you know about the world?' the ravenger snapped. 'let us accept that the seas are not as it used to be. People learned how to avoid us, and even learned how to defend themselves in some places' the ravenger added.
'That does not explain why we should head north brother' said Galak.
'The more we should head north I say' the ravenger snorted. 'it is about time we leave this desolate lands and live the rest of our days in peace' the ravenger added.
'Peace? Since when we Demi learned peace'
'You would understand when you live for as long as I did boy' the ravenger replied.
'I say, we should head south' Galak said.
'And what? Bury ourselves in sand rather than snow?'
'There are stories about the great hume cities on the south' Galak added.
'Real stories boy' the ravenger burst into laughter. 'I was there young one. When old jarl khufken was in his prime'
'You were part of the southern raid?'
'Aye. Twas a long time ago when we arrived at a place called Jedo.' The ravenger said it with disgust. 'twas a place filled with hume, saladere, and frowgans. An abomination' he added.
'Well, sounds like it would mean bigger plunder, and bigger cities to raid' Galak said.
'Aye, but the Jarls son was lost at sea, and his mind was divided. We coudnt plunder nor raid. We searched for the young warrior for days. That until the red moon came'
'Bad omen' Galak hissed.
'Twas, the jarl commanded all the longboats to return north and leave without the finding of his son' the ravenger said. 'since then, twas forbidden to sail down south, as the moon had spoken' he added.
'Well, if we head north, then whats going to happen with the bonewall'
'Spit on that bloody bonewall boy! I don't care if we slay all them humes and pile them bones on that piece of trash' the ravenger growled. 'its all for show. A wall made of bones wont be any protection if these humes bring trebuchets or catapult and crush those pile of skulls down to the ground'
'Aye. But Jarls words are law' Galak said.
'Aye'
'How many packs raided south back when...'
'Quite boy' the ravenger interrupted and halted.
'You hear that?' he pulled out his maul and signaled Galak to be on guard. Luckily, the blizzard is beginning to subside and he can see dark shapes from three others in front of them; also on their guard. The wind ceased.
Something hot touched Galaks cheeks. As he reached out to his face, he saw blood. Then the smell confirmed it as demi blood. In front of him was an empty snow trench where the ravenger he's talking to was supposed to be. Only, it was empty and is filled with blood, splattered accross Galaks left hand side.
He quickly spun left and assumed an offensive stance, clasping his wooden axe handle. Then cried another Demi a few paces from him; flailing as it tries to hold into a ravaged shoulder where an arm is supposed to be. The cry stopped as the giant fell into the ground, creating a red sphere of blood amidst the pure white snow.
Suddenly his nose twitch. Twas a smell of corpse. No, corpses. And fur. Galak spun towards the direction where the wind blew. He coudlnt believe what he saw. Twas a male frostbear of silver fur, yellow fangs, and bloody jaw. About twenty years, judging the hight. Twas eleven feet tall, a foot taller than he. Some debris dangled on its thick fur; resembled body parts from its countless prey. It stood up. On two legs and bellowed. The horror of it's wake sent chills into Galak's spine.
For the first time, he felt cold. Not cold from ice, but the cold of fear. He was stunned and cannot move his legs. The frostbear bellowed once more and dropped in all fours, causing the earth to shake.
It began to charge towards him with brute force and great savagery. Its gigantic body ignored the thick snow as it plows its way thru Galak. He needs to run, but it was too late. all the Demi could do was to shout. shout at the impending doom.
Suddenly the frostbear crashed. Lost its direction and started to thrash wildly. It was a small spear that pierced the beasts right eye. Galak could tell that it was a critical shot; that it would surely blind the frostbear for life. Galak turned into the direction where the spear flew.
There he saw a small creature that stands on two legs. The creature resembles his kind, but smaller, and more agile looking. It was wearing steal plates, It was a hume. It stood tall and proud. It felt taller than he, even it only stands as high as his waist. But there was something with this creature. It was determined. No, it was brave.
The hume roared, pulled out a strange weapon. It was a long steal with two sharp edges and charged towards the enormous beast. Galak felt a pull towards the hume and before he knew it, he himself was charging towards death with his axe ready to swing. The frostbear stood tall. Galak slashed through its chest as the hume stabbed the beast on the leg just bellow Galak. The frostbear twitched, and swung its huge paws; knocked the Demi into the ground. Throw-axes flew into the air reaching its mark as the Beta and another ravenger charged into the frostbear with rage.
As the bear fell, so does Galak stood up, with a deep cut from his left shoulder to his chest; filled with warm blood. The beta buried his axe into the hume's back forcing it to kneel into the ground. Galak stood closer. As the other ravenger loot the dead beast, the beta stood right next to the dying hume.
'Show me' the massive Demi growled. Galak knew what he meant.
'Take of his head and return home as a Demi' the beta added.
'I was on patrol. This is already a part of our lands. I came to help you, what on bloody earth do you think youre doing!?' the hume said in Demi tongue, with some syntax rules ignored.
'If you must, do it' the hume said as it bleeds. bury my medallion near a well in Demidis' north gate. As a token of honor' he tossed his golden medallion to Galak.
'Hume do not have honor' the Beta roared
'Hah!' The hume laughed. 'It was your kind who kidnapped daughters of Adam, our women for your kind to thrive' the hume added.
'You are nothing but slaves' the beta roared.
'Aye, the same slaves who liberated you from extinction since your ancestors; the giants cant bear females for some bloody reasons.'
The beta pulled of his gigantic axe in anger and spat on the blood drenched hume.
'he helped us slay the beast brother' Galak said.
The beta snorted and walked away; 'do what you must'
Galak nodded towards the hume and swung his axe. Thus, a boy was buried and a demi was born.
Well, it was years ago. Now this time, his prey didnt help him at all. It was just standing there on patrol as Galak threw a huge rock to immobilize it. Then drove his axe thru his chest to finish the job. Another addition to the bonewall. After we skin them, and dry them bones that is. 'Alpha, we must go' a ravenger called, carrying a dead hume on his back. '

Aye, twas today that the Jarl will be challenged by you for the leadership brother' another Demi said. 'Let us go then brothers' Galak picked up his prey and walked toward his pack. Then absent mindedly, his fingers began to rub a peculiar golden medallion with an eagle clasping a hammer etched on it, along with a hume spearhead hanging on his neck.
