How? We spend the first half hour just trying to figure out all the different ways we could approach solving this problem. I got things started by asking about the benefits and drawbacks to relying so much on our psionics during combat. The most i...
2022-07-11 19:08:49 +0000 UTC View PostMy session that day with Krato was a continuation of the day before. I wasn’t sure how much better he was expecting me to be on the second day, but there was no violent chastening, so I guess I passed. As for questions, I stuck to a few follow u...
2022-07-09 03:10:05 +0000 UTC View PostI've scrapped part 2, or b, seeing as it really is redundant. Next Codename chapter should be up tomorrow.
Cheers!
2022-07-06 18:39:03 +0000 UTC View PostBeing officially recovered was no excuse to not spending the night in the recovery chamber. I had physical training I needed to keep up with and mastering the hovering exercise Krato gave me was not something I had any intention of putting off to ...
2022-07-02 18:47:19 +0000 UTC View PostThe cavern was dark, but night vision through my headset made the room as clear as day. Freedom’s training was once again paying off. The manticore was curled up against the far wall like a sleeping dragon. Dragon probably would’ve been a bett...
2022-07-01 18:31:36 +0000 UTC View PostI continued struggling to remain in the air while fighting to stay on the platform without a word from Krato. He hovered in a relaxed state and didn’t move an inch in any direction. It seemed unfair at first glance. His entire fighting style rev...
2022-06-29 19:01:32 +0000 UTC View Post“He-w—what?” I stammered.
Victoria stepped between us, placing her hand on mine to get me to slowly lower my sword. “He is Krato,” she explained, “or what we call an elite. The Ekseliksi’s special forces.”
I glanced to ...

2022-06-26 12:35:35 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys,
This update will kind of reflect the last one. My family had just gotten over being sick. Well... So just after that, we came down with covid. On top of that, we had recalled peanut butter and didn't know it for a few weeks. ...
2022-06-23 14:34:13 +0000 UTC View PostI made note of the soldier who had died and planned on giving him a nice bonus for his sacrifice. His mistake was one that any of us could’ve made. He hadn’t known what to expect and was simply too slow to react.

2022-04-20 14:55:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe tunnel leading into the cavern was only wide enough for a squad of men to stand shoulder to shoulder. Five men advanced with their shields interlocked. A swarm of microdrones had entered first without engaging the enemy. They were in position ...
2022-04-18 13:52:26 +0000 UTC View PostStanding at the top of a hill with my six captains, we looked at the cave opening in the rockface. It was wide enough for a surface shuttles, land/air hybrid vehicles that looked like the beak of a mountain size bird. The shuttles we used were mai...
2022-03-19 15:42:09 +0000 UTC View PostWhen the time had come for me to leave Vanguard, I simply stayed put. Destiny had access to the version of herself outside my cube. No one came to force me to leave, so I kept training. I had to admit it was a relief to have some semblance of cont...
2022-03-16 16:26:35 +0000 UTC View PostOnce inside the Psionic Recovery Chamber, I found myself in a sealed off walkway that led to the main chamber. Only when the door shut behind me did I feel the pressure in the room change. The door to the inner chamber opened and I slowly entered ...
2022-03-12 04:29:56 +0000 UTC View PostPorting into the Vanguard sim, I arrived in a wide open room with a white glowing ring that reached from wall to wall. I wasn’t alone. Even as I finished phasing, others were arriving around me. I already wore my basic psi-wrap body armor and ps...

Entering my cube, I’d informed Destiny I had every intention of entering the bandit simulation Achilles had gifted me. It was really just a customizable training sim. The one Achilles used himself. Because of the new freedom we’d received afte...

What’s taking so long?
Family sickness is the main thing that has been slowing me down over the last few months. It started in about October. Every year around October the kids get sick at least once. This year it just has...
2022-02-01 19:29:31 +0000 UTC View PostAs soon as I opened my eyes, I knew something wasn’t right. I woke with people in white coats surrounding my cube’s platform. I was lying there groggy as if waking from a not so restful sleep.

2021-12-24 02:03:24 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
Revisions are coming well on the first 75k of Codename book 4. My daughter has had the stomach flu, so I'm been more radio silent than I planned. I'll be getting to comment responses, which I've been looking forward to, early next w...

2021-12-13 19:20:11 +0000 UTC View PostI was hoping to have the rest of the arc out tonight, but I completely forgot some characters so I'm going back through it. It's much more complex than normal. I should have it and the next chapter, that I might tack on to the end of this one post...
2021-12-12 05:24:21 +0000 UTC View PostMost of our men had been moved away from the northern gate, leaving only those that would venture out and face the rank D Ekseliksi elite in battle. My fellow majors had two squads of their best men lined up in long rows as if to show them off. Kl...
