Definitely made me appreciate the magic item more, having to ‘rough it’ for a night. There were no inns between Eshiari and Crystalshield, after all.

Planet Leader Druxl had never been so glad to be assigned to a hell world. Thraxl Secunda was a hot, miserable rock too close to the system’s primary to be properly habitable. Flows of molten iron and other metals ran openly across the surface, making it impos...

Not as bad as a body left out in the heat, perhaps, but there was something dead here, that much was certain.

2025-11-05 22:20:09 +0000 UTC View PostOnce again, we were in the conference hall used for military affairs. The same one we’d done the initial after-action report following the pirate fleet’s attack. Then, it had been all pilots and ship crews, practically the entire Navy, in attendance. The ground crews for the fighters were probably the only one...

Three months. The journey across the continent of Regandi from Palerre in the Anfelon Confederacy to Nighthold, capital of Knightmarch, the dungeon city-state that had taken over the former Vinastran capital of Aquilis City and all the lands within a day’s ride of Nighthold’s walls, had taken...

This was the big push. There were nine of the guards to worry about. No clue about the researchers, but they looked like mundanes, so I wasn’t too worried. W...

2025-10-31 20:55:48 +0000 UTC View PostWe didn’t just up and leave Srusk now that the Russians had taken over. I mean, we could have. There wasn’t anyone in the Russian military or amongst the Russian supers who could have stopped us, after all. However, there were reasons to stick around, at least for a bit.

I left the Russians to their business. They were going to have plenty to do in the coming days, since the planet wouldn’t conquer itself. That was part of the reason I agreed to haul the gates along, after all. Destroying a world was easy, if time consuming. Conquering and colonizing one was hard work, and...
2025-10-23 20:29:49 +0000 UTC View PostToday was the day my apprentices began their combat training. Since we were just beginning, I wasn’t going to teach them weapons, just yet. Eventually, as I’d promised, they would at least obtain proficiency in several weapon types, but they needed a basis to start from. There was no point in jumping t...

Take two pylons, each five meters high, put them eight meters apart, make sure the supports are set up properly, run cables to the control console and the small power core inside.
