James looked up to the sky as a roar reached his ears. What the fuck? Looking around, he saw everyone else who was setting up King Kristoph’s public trial also glancing to the North-East.

The miles flew by as Brad reveled in something he had not felt in many, many years. Freedom. Trapped inside Cecily’s palace for so long, the warm sun felt amazing. He put the cigar up to his lips and took a draw of the sweet, intoxicating smoke, feeling it circle in his lungs before he breathed it out. Now that ...

The battlefield shook with the roar of armies and the clamor of booted feet. Kory led the charge, running in front of the army, brandishing his war hammer – before he had acquired Krak’il’to – his body alight with the surge of mana through the internal spells that only he could use. His skin – like steel...

It was full of sand, and the walls on either side were solid. The perfect place they could store the submarine and open the VBV. And so they did; exiting the vehicle before Felix put it into the inventory. The wa...

Cecily screamed in outrage as she flogged one of the petty thieves harder and harder, shredding skin from bone until the white fat and cartilage was dangling off of his form. His wails had turned into blubbering. “Will you shut up!” she screamed as she grabbed one of the knives and held it in ...

It began to open its maw, and a bunch of fish parts started to spill out. The various Sharktopi – the small ones, probably youths to Felix’s imagination, swam over and ate the delivered meal. Felix had to carefully push himself down towards the floor ...

Lyn went outside and took a force of the servant-caste Duskari towards the Western mountains. The journey took a little over three hours, and the sun was high overhead by the time they arrived at the cliff face. Right. Iron and Coal. She placed her palms on the mountainside and exhaled before taking a dee...

The tower was warm. Thomas knew something was off. Summer has gone on way too long, he thought. Hector had been able to find a sheep or goat almost every day, which was another indicator that something was wrong. I’m trapped in some spell.

“What’s that?” Felix asked.

Kory felt groggy. He groaned and tried to sit up, only for several sets of hands to push him down onto a soft bed. Blinking his eyes open, he could see the stark, white ceiling. Sterile. It reminded him of the hospital he was in for a few days when he broke his collarbone jumping a pile for the touchdown.

Thomas was in his tower, studying. The Ruins of Elent were the ancient capital of the Elenthian people – the first race to exist on Ghomar, the inventors of Elenthir, and creators of magic. He was studying their creator deity, Aelor, who had split itself into twenty shards to empower leaders of the race.

Lyn tapped the icon on the altar of the dungeon when they were fully equipped, and a grey portal opened in front of them. She led the way, waving her allies to follow her.

Lyn touched one claw-hand with the other. She could tell they were wickedly sharp. This will complicate things in the bedroom, she thought. But…let’s try something. She focused her mana within her body. “Adhano nin ennas / nan hen / en-Duskari.” Once more, she tried an external shift...

Thomas felt dizzy. He was being dragged by the arms down a set of stairs.

The shimmering purple portal had a jelly-like quality, with some resistance that was easily pushed through.
