#the heroic legend of arslan
Arslân is a prince. It’s as simple as that. The Gods cherished him as their successor, swore him to a life borne of good fortune, yet he is nothing like the king.
It is fine, as he does not wish to. His “father” lets his people starve, feast on the glories of war, on the tears of his mother, and it is not a path he wishes to follow, not when it leaves a sour anger pooling in his guts, threatening to breach through with every mourning wail of his people.
But in the middle of all this hate, Arslân can still remember those sweet, sweet times when his father told him thousands of stories at night before sleep, remembers the soft, caring smile on his lips as if he was the most precious of his loots, the one jewel, the one piece of gold which shone brighter than any other.
And Arslân is bitter, bitter for these times forever lost seized from him the moment he grew into a man and no longer stood as the boy his father once knew for he became a threat to his reign, became the one who would one day take the throne away from him, although Arslân never wished nor longed for it.
So, Arslân is a prince. But maybe it is, he was never meant to be king.

For Indonesian order, I will use JNE, for International order, there are two options: EMS or Registered Airmail Service.

so as we all know, arakawa definitely has a reason for the changes that she makes to the source text. what could be the reason for not drawing narsus sensually eating grapes off the vine? too risque, perhaps?

sorcerer shenanigans, aaaaand… the beloved gieve vs isfan fight!
also… a very cute scene between daryun and narsus, which i’ll probably make a separate post about because i have Thoughts on it.
kubard talks with irina, and……..the rest of the cast FINALLY figures out who silver mask is. great work, everyone.
meet irina! more merlane and kubard shenanigans, and probably the most actually entertaining battle scene in the whole story :p
as promised, merlane is here now! and irina will be here next week :)
i have to say, merlane is one of my fav characters. everything about him is so funny to me. i was sad to find that the joke about believing kubard’s dragon story wasn’t actually said by him, but i’ll still believe in my heart that merlane thinks dragons are real.
hilmes being hilmes and uh, tragedy befalling the nice people of daylam!
sorry i didn’t post anything last week, i was so busy and tired. and now i’m sick and overwhelmed with schoolwork. oh well… kubard and merlane interactions get me through anything. those will come next week ;)
the great zaravant vs jaswant fight, more narsus scheming, and a fairly amusing conversation between guiscard and his beloved brother ^_^
in other news, happy late halloween! i might not be able to keep doing 3 chapters a week cause holiday season always means less free time for me but i will try…
in other other news, according to wordpress, the two countries with the most people viewing these translations are by far indonesia and germany… i just thought that was an interesting piece of information. i’m american, but from what i see the majority of english-speaking arslan senki fans are indeed european! i see a lot of indonesian tweets about it on twitter, but i can’t read them, so that side of the fandom is lost to me…
aaaand……
we finished book 3!!!!!!!!!!
this week, we have… more kubard being kubard, an ominous earthquake, and…
the introduction of zaravant, isfan, and tus! i know some of yall particularly like them…
