I can't! Some of the stories are fanfiction, and RR doesn't allow links to them. I can only link them on the page of the story itself. Phantom Star for instance has a link to my Patreon in the author notes.

2026-02-12 19:08:40 +0000 UTCY'know, they could probably do some serious damage by NOT leaving the steam hole and using Conjure Refreshment plus Heat Water to make Steam Grenades or Steam Bombs. Boiler explosions are deadly AF.

2026-02-12 19:07:43 +0000 UTCTo my understanding the steam/heated water is just heating the device while letting steam escape, not putting steam into the enclosure to make the food soggy.

No, they will buy it from us, because learning how to make it themselves will be a task they won’t even consider.” I feel a bit called out. Especially when I buy a new thing that broke down, even though it's possible to fix it with knowledge. Soldering, Electrician-work, building/crafting, cooking ... etc. *Someone* does it, so it's possible for me to learn it too, but I rarely thing of it as an actuall theoretical possibility. Thanks for the reality check El'Tela. :)

2026-02-12 14:23:06 +0000 UTCI am really curious as to how the sausage was made for this chapter, how many times Seras, did you rewrite it?

2026-02-12 13:33:13 +0000 UTCThis chapter was so American Isekai that I contracted type 2 diabetes just by reading it. What are you doing to these poor elves, Seras ! We all thought that Dorah would be famous for being a badass mage paladin adventurer, but I see that her future is actually that of a fast food mogul !

2026-02-12 11:41:17 +0000 UTCNow I am hungry for pizza. :( It is so cool that the spells mesh well with each other! Now I do wonder about cooking buffs. Eating gives a bit of health regeneration? How could anyone realize if food gives a resistance buff or an experience buff? If such a thing is only 1-5%, for example, then the only way to figure it out would be by relying on chance intuition of a huge sample size. Basically wisdom of the crowd -> rumor -> scientifically test rumor. Sort of like household medicine spread through the ages. . . . Now I imagine a granny telling a sneezing child to drink their coca-cola, to get better. xD I feel for El'Tela. Of course she once tried to monetise her awesome conjuration. Now I imagine her in a fast food restaurant with a uniform . . . About the need to fight, one of my theories is that the king might actually want to ask humans for help already. Due to elf nonsense/arogance, a majority of his council is against it and he would either loose face or he'd loose power to a rival, if he pushed the decision through. At the same time, he knows that they can't win alone, because he goes out to fight regularly. So he maybe set a trap, like: "You think we don't need help? Alright, I believe you. Make preparations for an all out assault in a month! We ALL will join it, you included. Let's push the trolls out!" So if he has political enemies, he'd basically force them to either backpedal and say that human help wouldn't be that bad, or actually go out and fight. I asume the council is made up of Magisters and Magistrix who never fought. So it could be a win-win. Either the push the trolls back, or they don't and his political enemies will change their tune, because they realise they'd be stuck fighting a loosing battle. It'd basically be sacrificing people for social capital to push a decision through. :/ Though it could be naive of me. Politics (at least today) is probably not this black and white. I just like to think that every suboptimal decision has a perfect reason behind it. :) Great chapter! Very chill. Have I mentioned how damn hungry it made me? :/
