Chapter 389 - Morpheus

Note :

Construction might drag on for even longer than expected, thanks to more bullshit. I might honesty return to my place regardless of if its still going on, provided that the noise is at a bearable level. Because this is just INSANE. There's talks of it dragging into 2026 because of the bureaucrats' demands (I kid you not, they are asking for every window to be removed and repainted because they don't like the specific shade of the paint, these people are NUTS).

Also, some of...

Chapter 388 - Operations Center

Chapter 388

Red Sands Desert, Aurorean Empire

Dungeon Factory, Operations Center

Alexandra looked around, impressed.

For a while now the command center had gotten...well, a mix of 'too crowded' and 'not crowded enough'. When the shit really hit the fan it was too tight, but on a day to day basis no one really maintained a watch, besides the AI who weren't really there to begin with. Once the vampire maids had handled that, especially to keep an eye on the prison...

Chapter 387 - The Right Thing

Note :

Gods I hate patreon. They started force activating AI 'Autopilot' crap to try and spam members with offers and shit like that. I am so done with this.

Chapter 388 is also almost done, just not added to the queue because I got cut short by a session.

Chapter 387

Eris Empire, Capital City of Starcore

Imperial Palace, Agency Bunker

Cassissa looked up from her desk as the door slid open.

To her total lack of surprise, the director wal...

Chapter 386 - Tark

Note :

I'm still afraid of moving things too fast, but honestly I feel it's FINALLY time to converge some long running plotlines and get all that sweet, sweet payoff. Which I suppose is kind of the theme of this whole book, with Emilia and Alexandra's party.

I hope you guys enjoy !

Chapter 386

Red Sands Desert, Aurorean Empire

Capital City of Rebirth

Normally, in these summits, all the real deals got made in hallways by aides and secretaries. ...

Book 10 Cover

Heya ! Here's the finished cover for book 10 of The Fallen World !

You guys are getting a peek before I slap it onto RR, probably next saturday.

Would have posted a chapter but I was too tired. On the plus side, I appear to be recovering from my illness. So there's that.

Were the rest so easy...

Anyway. I'll go back to writing so there's a chapter ready for tomorrow. See you !

Chapter 385 - The Citadel

Note :

So, for those wondering what went worse, I fell sick, my mom got an incredibly violent allergy, and on top of all that I had a personal-ish event that I'm currently going to keep under wraps at the advice of some of my friends. I might make an announcement about it, I might not. We shall see.

Anyway, I enjoyed the hell out of writing this chapter ! Only hesitated at one joke at the end (it concerns Ghost, Alexandra and Emilia), because I know some people are extremely uncom...

Chapter 384 - Aurorean Empire

Note :

Well things went from 'bad' to 'worse'. I'll do a proper announcement soon, but this is going to be painful.

Chapter 384

Low Alcheryos Orbit

Citadel of the Flames

The sensation, when the Citadel moved, was...bizarre.

It wasn't quite teleportation. But nor was it a gate either. One of the few relics they had been allowed to keep from the studying of what slumbered beneath Alcheryos, she didn't think even the Seraphims who mainta...

Chapter 383 - We're Boned

Note :

No, I couldn't think of a better title for the chapter.

Also, sorry for the lack of chapters lately, but my life has been absolute hell. The construction at my place has reached a level where it's simply no longer inhabitable, and I'm going to have to evacuate. And according to the workers it will take at least another three weeks JUST for their crew to finish their part of the job, and there'll be follow ups.

Oh, and the bureaucrats who ordered that construction in t...

Chapter 65 - Anomalous Materials

Notes :

Gods the construction here is driving me nuts. I have people using power tools all day literally a meter away from my desk. I'm amazed I even have EARS left. And the fucking architects of france (psychotic bureaucrats who basically can impose whatever construction they want in certain areas with no real oversight or checks, and who have been going on a power trip these last few years) are screaming and demanding MORE. I hate these scumbags so fucking much.

[MFR] The Terran Guard

Notes :

Sorry for the lack of chapters in the last few days, but as some of you have probably seen in the news, things are a bit hectic over here in France. Hopefully it gets better, but in the meantime it's hard to write.

The next chapter should be an MFR one, chapter 65. Hopefully I'll be able to finish it by friday.

I hope you'll enjoy this lore file in the meantime !

The Terran Guard

While it is not the largest nor the best equipped unit of the Federat...

Chapter 382 - So It Begins

Notes :

Finished writing the chapter to Whiskey's stream. It worked strangely well, surprisingly enough.

Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy the chapter ! I really liked writing this one, especially the end.

Chapter 382

Red Sands Desert, Archduchy of Rebirth

City of Rebirth, Ducal Manor

The ducal manor may not strictly need to be used as a keep anymore, nor would it have any appreciable amount of combat power compared to Alexandra's mesa fortress, but...

Chapter 381 - Et tu, Explorator ?

Note :

Hopefully this doesn't feel rushed, because I'm trying to get things moving. And yes, the title just popped into my mind unbidden and I couldn't get it out of my head. Is it correct ? Almost certainly not. Is it funny ? Hopefully.

Chapter 381

Red Sands Desert, Archduchy of Rebirth

Dungeon Factory, Command Center

"Nothing." Said Alexandra. "Are you certain?"

Glitch nodded.

"No combat personnel. Plenty of artificers have been moved ...

Chapter 380 - Well, Shit

Note :

I was going to say things were starting to get better, but shit has gone sideways yet again. Hurray.

I also completely run out of ideas for the chapter title and went with this.

I hope you'll enjoy the chapter, because honestly I am completely depressed at this point.

"Interesting." Said Alexandra, after Allya stopped speaking.

Schedule Change

As talked about in the notes of chapter 378, I am adjusting the schedule (due to my own changing IRL stuff). From now on, I will attempt to post chapters on :

Mondays

Wednesdays

Fridays

Sundays

I might adjust and remove Sundays in the future.

The changes from the previous schedule is basically, I no longer post on thursdays and saturdays, but I now post on fridays and sundays.

So far the schedule has worked really well in letting me pace myself and av...

Chapter 379 - Deal With The Devil

Note :

Sorry for the late upload, I was handling some edits for Manaforged Robotics and forgot the time.

I hope you'll enjoy this chapter ! It has some...interesting stuff at the end.

Also, I will be doing a post later today about adjusting the schedule. Due to a lot of my TTRPG stuff moving around, I will no longer be posting chapters on thursdays and saturdays, but be posting chapters on fridays and sundays !

[TFW] Chapter 378 - Chekhov's First Round

Note :

I'm a bit worried about doing too much too quickly, but I need to get things rolling or that damned summit will finish at the end of the next book.

And I'm sure the chapter title is going to give many of you guys a heart attack, but no, it's not Cassisa.

Yet.

You'll see. It's at the end of the chapter. Something I set into motion alllll the way back in book 1 and is finally coming full circle.

[TFW] Chapter 377 - Turning Of The Wheel

Note :

Today really hasn't gone like I expected it to. Like, at all. I realized that I am late posting this so I'll put it up. Maybe expound upon it later/in the next chapter.

I made an actual collection for book 10 of TFW and book 2 of MFR, hopefully it'll update correctly and not break down whenever I upload a new chapter.

I hope you'll enjoy the chapter ! I decided to throw in some events that were supposed to happen later, and speed things up a bit. It's time to kick thi...

[TFW] Chapter 376 - Talking Shop

Note :

Not much to say honestly. Things are decently stable right now. Made some delicious nutella filled cookies today. A single one completely filled my friend for the day. I make monsters of these things.

Dungeon Factory, Conference Room

"I wanted to thank you, miss Kaliver, for your and Laria's assistance." Said Alexandra as they finally sat down around the table, loaded with food and drink. Kal...

[TFW] Chapter 375 - Auntie

Notes :

Since it had been a while, I decided to come out swinging in the plot, emotional and silly departments.

I hope you'll enjoy !

Chapter 375

Red Sands Desert, Archduchy of Rebirth

City of Darthar

Starvak sat back into his chair.

It was falling apart. It was all falling apart.

First the ill advised reveal of his power. Then the attempted assassination of Crystal.

Turning against the UDC hadn't been an unspeakable mistake ...

[MFR] Chapter 64 - Aegis Monstrum

Note :

Heya. Didn't have a chapter for a bit, I honestly felt absolutely fucking awful and took a bit of a break.

Also I feel like I'm starting to burn out a bit on Manaforged Robotics, so I might switch tack to The Fallen World soon.

Chapter 64

Starborn Mountains, Starfire Valley

Workshop

Sapphiria came out of the workshop, data already pouring in from the turrets and the bots.

Six hostiles, moving fast.

She was still grabbing her...

[MFR] Chapter 63 - Making Peace

Notes :

Well, this week sucked. I got assaulted twice, had to deal with the construction company AGAIN and a bunch of other crap. Yay.

Chapter 63

Starborn Mountains, Mount Nebula

Crash Site

Sapphiria took a deep breath, and sat up.

Cia was observing her, the simulacrum's projection having 'checked' on her half a dozen times in the past few hours. Which she couldn't be blamed for, all things considered, as her CO had just been leaning there for...

[MFR] Chapter 62 - Divinity

Notes :

Sorry the delay. Chapter wasn't ready and this has NOT been a good day, for a certain number of reasons.

I'm a bit afraid of having laid it on too thick in this chapter, so I'm curious what you guys think.

Chapter 62

Starborn Mountains, Starfire Valley

Settlement of Astralis

"Sapphiria? Are you okay?" Asked Kalia, reaching out towards the AI.

Sapphiria jerked away from her, stumbling out of her chair, her armor's systems the only...

Chapter 61 - Technological Salvage

Note :

Been playing Days Gone a lot lately. It is amazingly stressful and yet relieving to empty an entire machinegun into a seething mass of zombies, and then cash in on having nuked dozens of them.

I should have Sapphiria do that. Run simulations where she guns down hordes of Banes and find it almost disturbingly therapeutic.

[MFR] Cuprum Duelists Rules

Notes : Chapter 61 has been written and added to the queue !

Had a lot of fun writing those rules. I don't know if the game would actually play well or be fun, but it was interesting to design at least !

Born on the island of Cuprum, this card game uses a standard Imperial deck to simulate a battle. The name, 'duelists' come from the way the battle is resolved.

An imperial deck is similar to a normal deck of card, except that cards two through five are 'peasants' and ...
