Currently working on Chapter 159 and 160

159 is close to complete, so it will probably be the third chapter I post this week rather than one of the side stories.

Hell's Songbird - 9

Mentally groaning at the thought of immediately attacking another horde, I gesture at the crescent blades. “What’s the deal with the ones that aren’t rusted?”

“No Mana in them, so likely some alchemical process used in refining the...

Ebusuku’s PoV - Duskstone - Moradin’s Hall

The glances don’t worry me, but being in this place is odd. I wouldn’t have been able to cross the threshold before, yet now it doesn’t merely tolerate me it welcomes me. ...

Abyssal Road Trip - 153 - Where's my mind

Amdirlain’s PoV - Limbo

Amdirlain sat cross-legged, floating above the pallet bed—Telekinesis rather than Flight keeping her aloft. The minds asleep around her tried to press across her awareness, but she kept clear of t...

Amdirlain’s PoV - Limbo

Duurth silently led her across a sky bridge between buildings and down a path that ran to an inner courtyard. There he had introduced her to Master Tenzin and excused himself.

Klipyl’s PoV - Catacombs

Claws caress in quick strikes that slip along my breasts and make them jiggle but can’t gain purchase.

Hell's Songbird - 8

The grass is soft and almost ticklish underfoot beside the pool, and I shift my weight, but Ilya stays at a distance. Both hands filled with sheathed daggers, I shake my head wondering why I grabbed them both for practice.

Abyssal Road Trip - 144 - Under your scars

Unsure of the time at Aggie’s location, Amdirlain used Spell Waiting Message to ask her to summon Pit.
