"Stop." TJ shook his head vehemently, his hand outstretched as if to stop anyone from approaching. "You lied to me. You all lied to me. I have been dragged away from my home - no, from my planet! I've been attacked, mauled, and almost died twice, and you have the audacity to suggest I trust you?! Bullcrap."
Terüni raised an eyebrow, trying to keep her temper under control. "Bullcrap? Really? You think it's so terrible to be the heir to the throne, but what about the actions of your ancestors? You left us, you took scores of races with you, and because of you, our whole way of living collapsed! Trade, economy, the ruling system, all tipped upside down when you stupid humans decided to pack your bags and find another planet - and it might've happened a long, long time ago, but the effects of your treachery still linger to this day. So don't you dare speak of bullcrap, when all your race has brought us is suffering. The least you can do is accept your place as King and try to fix your ancestors' mistakes."
Silence reigned through the camp as the warriors stared at Terüni in wide-eyed disbelief. TJ, his golden-brown hair falling over his forehead, had quiet fury written across his features as he glared at the Elf.
"I am not my ancestors," he growled through his teeth, then turned on his heel and shoved his way back into the teepee, leaving them in shocked bewilderment.

Trapped. Transformed. Forced to Fight.
A group of strangers from the 21st century wake up naked on the shores of an alien world-a place where the sky burns purple at night and survival demands more than modern knowledge. Stripped of everything but their instincts, they must forge alliances, master primitive living and confront a land teeming with rival tribes and brutal secrets that defy logic.
From captives to warriors, from outcasts to legends.
Ordinary people find themselves in an ancient age. With no memory of how they arrived, these survivors must adapt fast. The dense forests hide hostile natives. When the war erupts, they'll face a choice: to be its executioners-or its casualties.
Survival is just the beginning.
The Wooden Squad is a heart-pounding fusion of survival epic and gritty fantasy, where wooden weapons clash against steel ambition, loyalty battles betrayal, and ordinary humans evolve into something extraordinary. An epic tale of survival, war, and strategy. Follow Victor and his fractured band as they carve their name into a world that wants them enslaved-or dead.
Dive into a sprawling saga (estimated completion 220k+ words) of primal battles, cunning strategy, and the raw will to survive. Imagine Game of Thrones meets The Hunger Games, with a twist of mythic darkness. Perfect for fans of Gladiator, Dune, Berserk, The Witcher.
