2021-06-18 12:58:59 +0000 UTC View PostKellin advanced forward, drawing his rifle again from his right hip and moving cautiously despite how giddy he felt. It felt wrong to have this much more luck than he'd ever thought they'd have, all things considered.
"How do you think it got here," he asked in wonder, a cool blue and white lighting shining softly from above as they descended into the passageway.
"Unsure. Set into mountainside. Unlikely it was swallowed by portal. Intentional placement," she reasoned back...
2021-06-18 12:58:18 +0000 UTC View PostAfter another minute of light jogging, Kellin watched their [Energy] hit 20. Slowing to a walk, he searched around with eyes and ears looking for anything out of place, any trace of their pursuers, but couldn't hear anything off in the distance anymore let alone nearby.
"Alright, I think it's fine to drop it," he said aloud, waiting for Gypsy's confirmation before dropping the [Cloak].
Another few tense minutes passed as they walked along, not gaining [Energy], but not losing it e...

Damien sighed in spirit, cursing as his mind rambled on and on against his wishes. Not in a 'can't stop thinking' kind of way, but a, 'have a god trapped inside your head with you,' kind of way. Nothing he had tried worked to stop the diety's rant either. Threats, bribes, re...
2021-05-23 10:35:50 +0000 UTC View PostDamien wished he'd been one of the unconscious ones. He felt every cell in his body cry out in pain when they collided with the far end of the vent they'd broken through the wall into. Krissa's body had once again taken the brunt of the impact and finally, the three larger sentients broke apart from one another as they fell through the wall in slow motion, then began a downward arc. His eyes widened in panic as he sent one final trail of electrical current through the cave, striking Alexa in ...
2021-05-19 05:35:01 +0000 UTC View PostSo, not for nothing, but hey guys how's it been. Man almost a year. I'm finishing the last chapter of this book right now, but here are two more. Have coffee and the drive to finish this volume at least right now, so I hope you all enjoy the way this one ends.
First let me apologize for the long delay. I lose motivation to do... well, anything when I become depressed, and writing is just right out, especially when the characters hit close to home.
Secondly, let me make sure...

Damien's eyes widened in pain, his hand fractured in multiple places. Despite the increased density of his bones, muscle, and skin, ripping control of the section of wall from the Nivari Mages, and willing it to bend outward, the impact had still broken multiple knuckles and fingers on that hand. Still, the exploding wall alone would have probably killed the closest Nivari, around a hundred pounds of stone shrapnel slicing into his side. It had certainly injured two Hellial...

Rai gazed into the pool as his lone follower strode through the forest dodging, attacking, and wounding monsters that the Deity couldn't sense. In fact, Rai wouldn't have been able to see Damien either if he didn't know where the boy was. Gods couldn't see those they weren't contracted to unless they were utilizing their element, after all. They had to search with their own power and stay focused on them, lest the mortal get away from their field of view. It was easier when one k...

Damien got to the carriage in half the time it had taken them to run from it as Kastra healed his insides. He almost ripped the door off as he burst inside, hands reaching out as his two swords shot into them. Not sparing another glance around, he bounded out and ran toward the mountain, eyes burning with hatred as the white-haired sylphen beside him bounded along with the same fury, thunder rolling out from deep in her throat.
He could see the Hellials retreating. He under...
2020-05-31 07:05:38 +0000 UTC View PostRe-read pt 1 and two if you wanna recatch up. Also, sorry this is sooooo fkin late. I think making schedules makes it harder for me to keep to them >.> In any case, I have 8 chapters still ready to post, and im going through as many as i can before i pass out tonight. These are all gonna be public for now so you guys arent screwed <3
This chapter might not hit as hard as initially intended because of the long wait for it, but i hope you'll like it.

I'll be done by tonight. I was hit with probably the worst writers block I've ever encountered, and honestly... I feel like I may have gone too far with one of the scenes, but... well. Good luck <3
I'm halfway through, but the ideas are flowing finally. I've written 5k words in the past 6 or 7 hours and i dont plan on stopping for a while. Though, it'll be another 10k before I'm done I think... Maybe it wont be done tonight. Who knows. But you'll be getting 3, if not 4 chapters her...
"You were right; their Mages retreated," Uhren observed from beside Minerva as they stood up by the Nivari, watching the battle from the vantage point.
"They wouldn't want to hurt their own troops," Minerva shrugged as she continued forward, a calmness radiating from her face as bloodlust raged beneath the surface. "It's one of their foolish weaknesses. Because of it, they won't be getting any shields when we start firing back," she added, pausing to look over at him be...
2020-01-15 09:24:04 +0000 UTC View Post"You'll be at the base tomorrow night?" Minerva confirmed, speaking to the mana stone before her.
More than a bit of eagerness had spread through her body due to this call. Longer than a month in planning, she was finally going to make up for the mistake all those years ago. An incorrect decision, the wrong subordinate sent... she'd meticulously searched for an opportunity to snatch the girl ever since, and being patient had finally paid off. The Nivari had given her th...

"Alright! Stand back, weaklings!" Marciella cried out, floating in front of the group while holding her hands on her hips.
Alexa scoffed but took a cautious and imperceptible half step backward. Even if it was just showboating, it always paid to be a little extra careful around Fae that wasn't Kastra.
Damien was sitting closest, having just finished experimenting with the strange object he'd made. Alexa was as giddy as the rest of the group, if n...
2019-12-28 07:26:06 +0000 UTC View Post"Finally!" Damien yelled out, startling Kastra and Adrenna who were inside the bouncing cart, watching him, Garrett, and Marci all work on the metal device before them.
A week and a half passed from the moment they'd left Eleram, and Damien let out a sigh of content as he stared at the finished prototype. Sitting around a foot in thickness in all directions, Elerias very first alternator lay before him.
Working with iron had been the largest issue he'd encoun...
2019-08-02 01:47:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe carriage rocked back and forth as the caravan moved onward, one by one down the gravel road. The Tearen family's cart was indeed put at the back, as Damien had assumed it would be. Regardless of how well he and those around him received the Fae, other people in this world would not be swayed so quickly. Hopefully that would slowly change as time went on, but there was no guarantee. The Fae certainly weren't helping their case with their obnoxious personalities.
Either way...

A cool breeze drifted through Damien's hair and the happy Fae's who sat atop his head, reclaiming her spot from years prior.
It had been a while since his 'best friend' had spent some genuine-time on him. Usually, she was content to be off on her own or hanging around Garrett, but every now and then, she'd grace Damien with her presence.
It had been a long time since the last then.
Though, this time, it wasn't because she was missing ...
2019-07-11 04:31:39 +0000 UTC View PostDamien woke up from the sound of rustling and turned over to see Alexa stealthily attempting to retrieve her wings out from around him and Kastra. With a smile, he grabbed onto her and pulled her close, eliciting a yelp from the caught party.
"Damien, let go. I need to go check on your parents, they-"
"Our parents," he corrected.
She sighed at him.
"They don't know where food is, our cups, plates... anything. It's already ele...

Hey guys, a new chapter? What? No. Really? Why?
As I mentioned on discord and Royal road, things have finally slowed down for me. I have my helicopter license, I've taken my tests to get more qualifications, and now I just fly to finish my training. No fire season this year, everythings finally mellowed out and FINALLY, I'm able to go through and edit things, though I'm only up to chapter 20.
BUT, THIS CHAPTERRRR's existence(And one I'll release later this ...
2019-07-04 08:07:09 +0000 UTC View PostI'll be putting edited chapters up on royal road, let me know if you want them here too.
For now, I've decided to just tack on the edit to the bottom of the base chapter, so in the event someone is reading for the first time it won't confuse them if the storyline changes.
For now.
That's probably gonna change...
Definitely.
Most likely just deleting the first write completely and replacing with the edited ones lol.
We'll see.&nb...
2019-01-06 00:58:49 +0000 UTC View PostHi guys! Yes I'm alive, sorry for taking so long to post/get back to you all. It's been a bit hectic.
What you want to know:
Before I do any more writing, I've decided to full edit what I have so far. This is in an effort to give you guys the quality writing I was doing before. I can't very well pick RIGHT back up where I left off after taking almost 6 months off writing all together. I need to go through my book and remember all the little details I've forgotten. ...
2018-11-17 21:17:36 +0000 UTC View PostWell, I thought I'd have time. Then the Carr Fire and Mendocino complex Fire exploded and began burning down towns and villages. So... I'm busy until further notice. Wake up at 530, work by 6, work until 9-10, go to sleep, do it again tomorrow. Yayyyy firefighting.
I'll let you know with a chapter when I get more time! Thanks for being so understanding, stay safe this summer guys! It's a rough one.
2018-08-09 17:46:35 +0000 UTC View PostFinally gonna have time to write tomorrow. California is burning to the ground everywhere, my home town was being threatened and my family got evacuated (everyone’s ok) but it’s certainly been busy haha. But tomorrow I’ll be able to write! I think! I’m pretty sure. Gonna be on the clock as a firefighter but... it might be a lax day. Here’s to hoping!
Mom giving rr this last chapter and then pausing them until I’ve given you guys three more. Thanks for all the support up until...
2018-08-01 06:22:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! Sorry I went radio silent, the world just keeps catching on fire. Hope you keep enjoying the story! Don't worry, I'm not gonna stop. Things may slow down but I won't stop till it's done xD

The sun had set but its glow still lit up the sky, sending dim rays throughout the quiet forest.
Shadows danced around the figure of a man darting through it as if riding the wind. No monsters, animals, or even plants obstructed his way as everything before him seemed to bend out of his way by his will.
"One day is all I ask for but no... Urgent report... If it's not..." the Celestial muttered to himself. "You'd think my subordinates of all people could understa-"

"Would you?" Carien asked, gesturing across the room with his right wing toward a surprisingly feminine Kreel that was arm in arm with another much larger male.
"Would I what?"
"No for me. Kreels... Never been my cup of tea," Oryen responded. "Now..."
"Jesus..." Damien whispered under his breath, laughing and rolling his eyes.
An hour had passed. He'd spent a majority of the time avoiding invasive questions and proposals while sipping very minimally on a g...

The coach slowed to a stop and Damien glanced to the other side of it, looking out the window. The road curved along to the left and there was a procession of other coaches, all ranging from Bronze to Gold, waiting in line in front of them up to a point where it looked like they would stop, unload, and then depart. The one they were currently riding in was the only one above Gold.
"What is all of that about?" he asked Oryen, turning to look at the matching couple before him...
2018-07-01 06:50:21 +0000 UTC View PostI screwed up and left my laptop charger at the airport. I'll get it tomorrow, but it's gonna die before I'm done editing this chapter. -_- I apologize gents and ladies
2018-06-30 05:29:37 +0000 UTC View PostBad news? Fire season is messing with my schedule a lot now that I'm going on fires. That's why I haven't gotten a chapter up this week.
Good news? I just got a single resource assignment that has me sitting somewhere pretty innactive for 10 hours a day....
Soooo....
Chapter coming tomorrow for sure. :D
If the assignment persists for a while... More to come as well.
2018-06-29 04:16:39 +0000 UTC View PostPower outage. Too much snow up here in Tahoe hahaha. I was in the middle of a chapter, too.
Luckily! i have my half charged laptop! Hopefully I can finish the chapter before it dies, but if not... well, I’m at the mercy of the weather right now guys. I’ll find some coffee shop to go charge my stuff in if it doesn’t come back on in the next day or so though!
Ill keep you all updated.
Update: No joy, she ded. Good news is the Edison guys are fixing the power pole already though...
