2023-10-05 04:26:50 +0000 UTC View PostHoo boy. Imagine my surprise when I sign on tonight to post the next chapters and find that Patreon has changed a bunch of shit, including fucking with their HTML to the point where italics no longer work. Even with posts that were already posted....

2023-09-18 04:05:51 +0000 UTC View PostThankfully, Ragnavi was smart enough to recognize that people needed time to cool off after her outburst. She sequestered herself elsewhere in The Village – alone – as everyone waited for the Dragonkin retinue to arrive.
Small comforts....
Inside his dream, Adam was awake.
The mysterious voice jolted him to awareness. A second later, he located its source – a strange gentleman, standing tall and seemingly unbothered by the heavy downpour falling on him. It’s raining,<...
The street erupted in a line of dirt and cobblestone, as if a tornado had rushed straight down. Dozens of pitch-black tendrils – each over fifteen feet long – were whipping through the air in a blender of destruction. The Blight-creature had b...

Valeria tapped her lips with her index finger, then looked upwards in a parody of deep thought. “...

“How much of that was an act back there?” Adam asked Solara once they were alone in their cabin. “The constant insulting of Dragon Puppets, I mean.”
Solara didn’t immediately respond. Instead, she closed the latch of their door, t...
