Laken Godart, Emperor of the Unseen Empire, took a nap after his morning of chaos to receive two announcements. The first was gratifying, if worrying.   [Emperor of Farmlands Level 37!] [Skill – Empire: The Changing Citizenry obtained!]   “…Voluntarily, I would hope.” He had to assume that was what had led Mister Ram’s hair […]

Blog #11 – Puerto Rico

June 25, 2024

I promised a blog on Puerto Rico, and here it is. It’s so great I can remember every detail of my trip. …In April. No, but for real, I delayed writing this blog, and now I have but memories to use, and not the freshest ones at that. If my trip to Puerto Rico was […]

Interlude – Another Time

June 7, 2024

The sky was spitting blood down over the treetops that splintered like broken glass as the UH-1P helicopters roared over the forest. Below, a thousand flickers of movement in the dense jungle cover gave the gunner too many targets. Not a single one actionable. The ground was alive; the radio was spitting almost as much […]

When he opened his eyes for a moment, he heard his consort singing, and it distracted him from reality. As she had surely calculated. The man awoke in his bed of pale greenish-yellow sheets that seemed as though someone had woven them from blades of tall grass in the summer. He brushed at the sheets, […]

(I am on my monthly break! I’ll be back on the 1st of June!)     A [Princess] was murdering people with her bare hands. She was crushing heads to paste, choking out her enemies. When they screamed, ‘no, please, have mercy!’ She beat them down with a frying pan. The bloody carnage was sickening. […]

Seats. The seat they offered Lyonette in The Adventurer’s Waystation, one of Invrisil’s best restaurants, was an exclusive booth in a private room. Not pristine; it had well-worn leather. But leather without cracks and with a strangely pale-yellow color. Lightning Wyvern leather; it actually had the opposite effect you might expect. Instead of generating static […]

The first thing the Horns did was make sure Ceria was actually okay. They hustled her off, trying to get anything out of her. “Are you hurt? Ceria? Ceria!” Yvlon shook her so hard that Ceria’s head rattled until Pisces and Colth stopped Yvlon. Amerys floated after them with more of a scientific interest in […]

(I am on vacation in another country! I will be taking my break early and have a chapter on the 27th for you!)     Did you know what the Claiven Earth reminded Ceria Springwalker, a half-Elf, of? Not home, that was certain. Hah! She walked through the balmy forest underneath vast trees grown in […]

April 6, 2024

(This chapter was divided into two parts! Check to see if you’ve read Pt. 1 first!)     Thus, the King of Khelt awoke. He had never truly slept. But his mind had drifted while attending to the minutiae of his duties. That was how it felt. As if he had had a dream, even […]

(Two chapters were released at the same time! Make sure you’ve read 10.08 (Pt. 1) before this one!)     It took Erin Solstice a full day and a bit to get to Elvallian, but she made it without further incident. The Selphids who had split from Hoisq’s force needed patching up and reclassifying as […]

10.08 (Pt. 1)

On the road to Elvallian, a trade road that passed along the great jungle of Baleros, beneath huge cliff faces, and all the way from beaches on each side of the continent, there was a city. If you took the road from Talenqual past Yoill, you’d get to the city of Ramok. It was an […]

Interlude – Saliss the Architect

March 13, 2024

This was a tale about Saliss of Lights, not Onieva Oliwing. It was about a Drake who didn’t sleep well. You’d think that wouldn’t be a problem for a Named-rank adventurer used to venturing into the wilds of the world and fighting, sometimes for days on end, without sleep. Saliss had done that. Of course, […]

Blog #10 – Chapter Release Changes

Ahem. Starting April 2024, I will release ~30,000 words only on Saturday instead of twice a week. It is my intention to begin this starting in April so my readers, but especially Patreons, aren’t blindsided by this notice. For the month of March, I’ll be sticking to my regular schedule. As for why—well, that’s a […]

“Gaze upon my mastery of magic and despair,” called [Archmage] Igawiz from the Steps of Challenges. He gazed down, and the [High Mage] removed the veil so all might see her face for the first time since she had come to Wistram. She lifted a hand, and the aether in the air pooled until even […]
