AN: Chapter 2, featuring the twist™
When Vinera came to again, she was greeted with a clear blue sky that held two moons she did not recognise. It also appeared that one of them was missing a piece — almost as if someone had tried to blow it up.
Sitting up, she rubbed her eyes and blinked, trying to get the illusion she ...
2021-06-07 13:49:31 +0000 UTC View PostAN: I have spoken a bit about this story on the discord before. I have been tinkering with it for a while now and am getting the urge to write some more, so I thought a bit of feedback from you guys might be good. This is a sequel to Forgotten in a sense, but it does play long after it. There are no real sp...

AN: After 168 chapters you now actually know how one of the currencies in this world looks. Truly the eon pace.
Caethya followed her love's lead and took a slightly wider stance that would allow her to react a little more easily. She doubted that any of the bandits in front of her would be able to even notice how the mana within h...

Natio stared at the seemingly endless list of names that scrolled past his mind's eye. So many… He had known that the All-Mother was not to be taken lightly — his current condition showed as much — but this see...

"Well," the bartender said, lowering the glass he had been cleaning slightly. "I am not sure where to begin with this." He hesitated for a moment, his eyes flicking from Aperio to the two large Minotaurs at the back of the bar. "You don't look like you… are from around here."

"Not yet," Aperio replied. She let a bit more of the information her aura provided seep into her mind. "I will wait for Moria like I said I would. Just going to do some light reconnaissan...

Hello! It's time for art again. This time, it is already for an actual print book (with somethings like spine text and isbn missing).
Just like the last piece, it was done by creadfectus. Just like last time, he did and outstanding job. I thank everyone of you for suppor...

Moria let out a long breath as she felt the mana in her surroundings rise to abnormally high levels. A moment later Aperio appeared next to her, wreathe...
2021-05-21 19:34:25 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Fuckery is afoot. Probably.
Finding the mortals that worked for the [Guides] on Geshwen had been a surprisingly easy task. While they did hide who they were — their organisation likely not accepted by the slaving despots — they apparently could not stop themselves from taking care of the people who were, by now, understand...

Amelia took a deep breath and gripped her basket of sweets a little tighter before she opened the door and stepped inside. The orphanage was clean as always. Not a speck of dust on...
2021-05-16 18:52:17 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Hello, is me, the chapter deleviery man.
None of the outposts Aperio visited posed any sort of challenge. They all left her with a small glimmer of satisfaction as she discovered new things about herself that she did not know, most of which boiled down to the fact that, ever since she had returned, she had been far too passive...

Whoever had decided to attack the empire was obviously insane, but Tilka had to admit they did have a better chance than anyone else she could think of. They had somehow managed to disable all the slav...

The palace was in turmoil. For a brief, terrifying moment, all forms of magic had ceased to function. When their connection to mana came back, the slaves were somehow freed of their compulsion; given back their free will. The nobles were currently hiding in the grand hall, while the guards we...
2021-05-07 15:33:06 +0000 UTC View PostAN: I can't really think of anything witty to put there.
Aperio carefully removed her arms and wings from Caethya when she felt the presence of her daughter enter her temple. The Demigoddess that had been almost asleep shifted slightly back from the All-Mother.
"Something wrong?" she asked.
"Ferio is here," Ap...

Kaylin frowned at the hologram in front of her. The information that Sagittarius had given her had not made sense initially, but as more information about the Custodian AIs became available to her, she began to see a few patterns. None of them were unexpected or worrying, according to Sagittarius, but Kayl...

Ferio tapped her fingers on the chestplate she held in her hands. The sample of the new armour she had commissioned for her knights was not exactly what she had expected when requesting it, but it would serve its purpose just fine. A little flashy, perhaps.
With the return of...
2021-04-30 17:25:25 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Sometimes, it do be like that.
Before Lady Vinmaier had any time to use whatever magic she had been trying to invoke, Aperio appeared in front of her. She grabbed the other woman by her collar and effortlessly lifted her off of her feet. "What led you to believe that I would just let you go?"
With no sympathy le...
2021-04-28 15:48:31 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Aperio really brought this onto herself. Gotta learn to be a little more flexible. Mentally, at least.
The outfit – if you could call it that – of the first mortal that walked in that walked in was tattered rags, with heavy shackles around his wrists and ankles as accent pieces. Aperio already wanted to do nothing more tha...

O'lymni straightened her robe one last time before she gave the large form of Roots-Beneath-All a nod. She closed her eyes as she felt its vines wrap arou...
2021-04-19 15:54:53 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Now with files. Sorry!
Caethya tapped her chin as she looked at Aperio. Trying to make her love appear less intimidating was harder than she had thought. "I think your usual blue is the best bet."
"Told you," Aperio replied as her dress turned back to the usual dark blue. "It simply works better with my wing...
2021-04-17 15:30:11 +0000 UTC View PostCaethya stretched out her arms and let out a small giggle as the wind blew past her. Aperio took her love’s enthusiasm as an invitation to go just a little bit faster. A strong beat of her wings pushed her past the resistance she felt in the air, the sound of Caethya's voice now fully drowned out by the noise of the air rushing past her, the r...
2021-04-15 20:12:39 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Surprise! It's a chapter!
Aperio tilted her head at the mortals that scurried about in front of her. She wanted to tell them to calm down, but she doubted that would be of much help. She did after all just appear there with Caethya. There had been no portal or other construct that a mortal might have noticed. One mome...

"Well, that was something," Igelio said, his armour clanking loudly as he leaned back in his chair. "How, exactly, did you meet her again?"
"My daughter," Geshton replied. "The blessing the stones could not read came from the A...
2021-04-07 16:12:00 +0000 UTC View PostAN: Well, that went a little differently from what I had planned.
The building the Council of Ebenlowe used to house their gatherings was not what Aperio had expected. She had assumed that they would simply pick an attending noble, and use their mansion, but that was not the case. Apparently, it had long ago been decided by someon...

"Could you run that by me again?" Moric asked as he lowered the scroll he had been reading. "I am not quite sure I understood that correctly."
Haiwa gave a small laugh in reply, the noise somehow sounding like chimes gently blowing in the wind....
2021-03-31 18:59:53 +0000 UTC View PostAN: I don't think Aperio is best suited for the Council. She squints too much and talks to little for that. Also a little to happy to murder slavers.
Aperio, seated at the edge of the bed, squinted slightly at the maid that stood in front of the door. The Human could of course not see, or even hear, her, but the All-Mother still f...

Natio gasped for air as his head emerged from the sea of blood. He struggled to make headway — the red expanse was harder to maneuver in than it had any right to be — but shortly after a wave of blood robbed him of his vision he suddenly found himself on...

Aperio gently brushed her hand over Caethya's stomach as she let a bit of her mana dance around Maria. Her youngest follower had gotten quite good at sensing her mana, letting the spheres of fire and water she made follow along the path the All-Mother made with her own. Why did she say she wa...
