I sprinted down the hallway, legs pumping as I took great big breaths of air. I made it seven steps before I heard a confused cry behind me.
A dwarf rounded the corner, just walking along. Ignoring the cries from the training room - as everyone did. The problem was, he was standing more or less in the middle of the hallway. If he had seen ...

“Gotta go to another building.” He grumped, twirling part of his beard around his finger.
Welp. About face, march. We stomped on over to ...

I'm thinking that once, maybe twice a month I'll be able to get a bonus chapter for everyone. I'm not promising I'll be able to always deliver, but when I can, when do you want it?
2021-08-23 14:40:17 +0000 UTC View PostI was unceremoniously dumped in a safe room, plopped onto the floor like a bag of grain. With about as much care as throwing one of those around to boot. The rest of my blood-smeared escort rushed in, throwing up barriers against every surface, layering them on top of each other.
“Thisar! Befak! I want stone, water, stone! Gaimo! Khit! L...

2021-08-22 02:09:13 +0000 UTC View PostTen days later, I was sitting with Drin, Fik, Glifir, and Urik, enjoying a nice meal all together. I’d just come back from a long session with a scribe, where I’d sped-read the entire Medical Manuscripts from memory to him. It had still taken ages, I was ravenous, but it was done and getting distributed. No idea if anyone w...

2021-08-18 20:29:55 +0000 UTC View PostI focused on [Kaleidoscope], casting the skill for a few seconds. First a few, then a dozen little motes of golden light sprang into existence around me, dancing around each other, growing ever-more the longer I cast. A close look at one of the motes revealed that it was a tiny little butterfly, playfully fluttering with others ...

I'm not promising that I can up my rate to 4 chapters/week - however, whenever I manage it, I'll be posting extra. It really depends on how much care and attention Flora needs...

2021-08-16 02:17:44 +0000 UTC View PostAhem. Before showing, I must share this glorious quote from the artist, when I asked him to shrink the axe:
"cannot shrink the ax any further. if smaller. it lost the inherent aura of the weapon. not fierce enough. and looks like a small toy. or ax to chop wood. a one-handed ax of this size is reasonable"
With that, enjoy!...
2021-08-14 16:07:44 +0000 UTC View PostChapter's been up for awhile. If you haven't read the chapter yet, go read it before reading the poll.
Out of the choices seen, which one do you want Elaine to pick, and which one do you think she'll pick? Vote for as many options as you'd like!
If you only vote for one, and get it right, you get bragging rights.

So warm. So cozy.
I turned over, snuggled deeper into the bed, and let myself go back to sleep.

I looked at the nearly-empty infirmary. The only people left were those who had refused treatment - even then I saw two of them taken away on stretchers, to be seen by a specialist - those too broken in the mind to keep going, those who we hadn’t been able to rouse and check on.
And those who had died before I got to them. They were rare...

I want to say thank you, to everyone, for all your unflagging support while I was moving. It means a ton.

Forrous puffed his chest out.

I frowned at that.

Glifir, myself, and whatever Ned was - heck, at this point I wasn’t even sure it was Ned anymore - were rapidly led to another tall, blocky building. The glowing lichen was a pulsing red, making it visible from a distance, and the doors were extra-large. A constant flow of dwarves, armed a...

Hey all!
Moving part 2 happens next week, Thursday and Friday, as I drive across the country. Yay stupid complicated moves.
Anyways, I'm going to try scheduling a post for Patreon to post on Friday, but if it fails for whatever reason, I'll be delayed and will only be able to post it Saturday afternoon.
