Hi, everyone.
I have a lot of things to say, many very good, some sad.
I will be abrupt and reveal as for the future of my writing will now change. Sanguine Paradise, my first true novel and attempt at creating both a world and story. There have been many ups and downs, but most of all, there has been learning.
Which had always...

It was overflowing with food and merriment, my closest followers and family joining me for this feast with our guests. Ruela and Frenn were more than simply enjoying the festivities as loud laughter and conversations were ...
2021-09-18 11:07:23 +0000 UTC View PostBy the council area at the outskirts of the settlement, I stood alone, watching as the precession of monsters came my way. There were a few familiar faces, but most were strangers. And those strangers specifically, were decently strong in their own right, yet I did worry about them at all. They were strong for what they w...
2021-09-16 11:05:06 +0000 UTC View PostForked tongue lapping at the air, a hiss escaped that massive creature. Although it was just a beast, the intelligence in those eyes proved it to be one of more than just instinct. The ire which it glared at me showed that it knew exactly who had slain her mate. Or at least, it blamed me for it since by projecting my aura...
2021-09-14 11:04:15 +0000 UTC View PostAt least I wasn't the only flabbergasted person here as Lily too stared open-mouthed at Ursa's sudden demand and shift in demeanor. Though the same could not be said about Mia who had adopted a wicked grin, and Bob who as always simply didn't seem to get what was going on.
It was a complete change from Ursa's natura...
2021-09-11 10:41:13 +0000 UTC View PostAs Lily twirled before me, testing out her new arm, I matched her happiness as her joy was consequently also mine. I had definitely been nervous about what she'd think of this prosthetic I had been working on for her, and seeing both it work out this well and her being this happy warmed my heart. Although I shouldn't blam...

Twelve days later, of hard work and setting the clan back on track, I stood before a massive complex on the edge of town. From massive chimneys spewing hot smoke to the clatter of metal against metal, the sounds and smells were enough to make one recognize it as a forge or a smithy.
However, this one was quite a bit...
2021-09-07 11:18:19 +0000 UTC View PostAs night cast its darkness, the noise of voices filled the surroundings of a large table standing out in the open, lighted by torches and pyres. A host of two dozen figures sat by this table, discussing the various matters of the clan and recent events. From the chief of war to the master of coffers, everyone detailed the...
2021-09-04 10:44:47 +0000 UTC View PostAfter assuaging the loving mother of my unborn child and having taken care of the clan's most urgent needs that needed my supervision or help, there was one more individual that took precedence over everything else.
Standing at the edge of the island in the heart of the basin, I couldn't help but stare up at what I ...
2021-09-02 10:10:04 +0000 UTC View PostI stood before everyone, happy but weary faces staring back at me. They had all fought valiantly for the place they now called home. Wounds and worn equipment a testament to their bravery and passion. Still, even with their initially terrible odd, almost all of those who were of significance remained here to stand before ...
2021-08-31 18:19:41 +0000 UTC View PostA cry rang high in the skies, echoing out above the small battle-torn part of the basin where the mountain pass spilled into it, the shrill sound making all bodies present who were immersed in various tasks to clean up the aftermath stop whatever they were doing to stare up at the large dark figure flying over them.
Noting the prompt as the domain all around faltered with the death of the warlord, it was evident that I was not the only subject to ...
2021-08-26 09:49:40 +0000 UTC View PostAs if tangible, the presences of the massive orc and the mysterious intruder rolled off them, their auras alone seemingly making the world around take in a bated breath of anticipation. One was a mysterious intruder, a Sanctioned Lord of legend. The other a notorious figure in all of the ...
2021-08-24 09:55:28 +0000 UTC View PostOnly the indistinguishable pieces of a once uniform being and the peppered remains of a high orc remained as the aftermath of the sudden attack. All around, faces stayed surprised, shocked, and a little frightened at what had just transpired before their very eyes.
Yet, the mountain of a figure sitting upon the thro...
2021-08-21 17:01:36 +0000 UTC View PostThe General let out an abrupt scream of pain that ended only moments later as the shock of the loss was washed away by his battle experience. Still, fear and terror racked his mind as he stared at the monster before him, clutching his bleeding stump.
"Who-are-you?" He gritted out, teeth clenched so hard could feel t...

But as she realized she was no longer alone in the room with the patient, she ...

2021-08-14 08:12:20 +0000 UTC View PostThe following events were hazy as my addled mind and fatigued body only faintly clutched onto consciousness. Loud sounds of explosive clashes, the sound of great tearing, and a whole another assortment of unintelligible sounds of battle ensued.
Through it all, there was only so much I could do to keep myself from no...
2021-08-12 05:47:52 +0000 UTC View PostThe arachnid's body hadn't even slumped over before the necromancer bailed, fleeing for his merry life. There was no need to make chase as a dark shadow was already descending on the elf like a reaper of death. Still, he ran, retracting his harrowing spirits around himself in the hopes of warding off my pursuit in a hopel...
2021-08-10 08:37:47 +0000 UTC View PostAs the rumbling storm slowly churned the skies above, silence ruled on the ground beneath, the air pregnant with tension. All parties here understood the severity of the situation and where everyone currently stood.
There was the girl and I, the original group, and the newcomers.
Noone here was stupid enough t...
2021-08-07 08:12:58 +0000 UTC View PostScanning the situation below, I felt my frown ever deepen.
I was attempting to unfold the mystery of how this situation might've come about as, in this trial of prey and predator, the unlikeliness of groups forming and actually staying cohesive to this point was quite improbable. These five lords and ladies were obv...

2021-08-03 06:56:47 +0000 UTC View PostMy rouse from sleep was slow as if my mind was emerging from a sea of molasses.
It was quite odd; having to acclimate to the normal world once again, the sheer contrast between it and the spirit realm bafflingly abstruse. But as memory and understanding came back to me, I found myself even more so flummoxed by the w...

All-encompassing and boundless.
I floated in this space, barely even registering the alien world as my mind tried to make heads and tails of the sensations coursing through my body. But the more I managed to orientate myself, steadying my mind, I began taking it all in. Or at least as best as I could.<...
2021-07-27 06:30:45 +0000 UTC View PostMy domain receding, the darkness on the edges of my vision battled to consume my mind as all strength left my body. It was only with pure and unadulterated will that I managed to move my beaten body and keep my shattered soul from falling to pieces as I plucked the ivory spear that fell from high above.

The heavy, laboring breaths and the fast but methodical beat of my heart filled my eardrums, drowning out all other sounds. It was as if time had halted to a stop, an instant where I got to take in the sight of my opponent was about as equally bedraggled as I.
But as I inspected the powerful aura and appearance of t...
