Because...
2024-03-08 23:09:39 +0000 UTC View Post“Where are they?” Nedira grumped, staring out over the edge of the box. “They should be in sight according to the schedule.”
“Perhaps they changed it? Or went a different way other than what was left at their com...
2024-03-08 19:20:31 +0000 UTC View Post“Well, that was a waste of time,” Larek remarked, walking out the gate leading into the Strike Faction compound. Inside of Nedira’s Void Pocket bag was a collection of the papers and maps that they had found in th...

2024-03-05 23:13:17 +0000 UTC View Post“Alright, show me what you’ve learned. Use only what you’ve learned with me at the Fort; that means no Fusions, just so we’re clear. You can still use your Pattern constructs, as you have incorporated that into ...
2024-03-05 19:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostThe next two months were a blur of constant training, practicing with his Stama, and enduring the increasingly perplexed and angry looks of the other trainees and Instructors at Fort Hilltower. It turned out that the ne...
2024-03-04 22:34:17 +0000 UTC View PostThe first thing that Larek looked at before acknowledging his notifications was the results of his new Fusion. A thorough introspection revealed the tight weave of the Fusion’s formation surrounding the source of his Stama ins...
2024-03-04 19:17:08 +0000 UTC View PostWell, I only got 6 chapters done this week, which was about what I expected. The release of Unexpected Healer has gone great -- but any release tends to consume most of my thoughts for a few days, so I get less writing done. Next week ...

2024-02-28 14:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostLarek reviewed his schedule again as he finished up with breakfast. Fortunately, it wasn’t that hard to remember, as more than half of it was working directly with Senior Instructor Torge. As he looked around the sparsely popu...
2024-02-27 22:39:50 +0000 UTC View PostWhen the training room inside the Fort was completely empty other than Larek and the smiling Drekkin, Senior Instructor Torge, the Fusionist stood there for nearly a minute with the silence stretching uncomfortably long. Just as...
2024-02-26 22:30:59 +0000 UTC View PostQuickly switching his clothing into what he was given, Larek laid his previous clothes outside of the circle where he thought they would be perfectly safe. It wasn’t that he was worried about the clothing themselves getting da...
