Year 340

"I present to you, the first demon-king rated version of our void sea weaponry." Alka and Stella said together. They stood in a large warehouse located deep within one of Darkgard's many weapons factories, a place where many other dwarven engineers worked with Stella's void mages to build special weapons. "The first Starvoid Voidling-propelled Torpedo!"

Multiple large spherical bombs with hundreds of little sticks.

It resembled a fur...

363.1 Upheaval Part II

363.1

The five worlds clamped down on interworld travel and communication between them shrunk to no more than a trickle.

In a time when what they needed was to come together, their paranoia and fear prevented them from doing what they needed. 

"Traitor."

The term exploded into the consciousness of the Erasians. 

“Traitor.” The words repeated in the whispers, and snuck between the thick beards and clinking mugs. 

Even the most disconnected...

363 - Uprising, Upheaval

Jorkun walked to the platform, draped in more accessories and equipment than he ever had. Relics embedded on his metallic arm, relics on his shoulder. There were enough relics on Jorkun’s body, that he later described it as being back to the glory days of Eras. 

Back to the days when relics flowed from Erasian Forges, and the markets flooded with treasures aplenty.

Once the Descendants on their world were defeated, he knew there would be retal...

362. The Eye

Year 339 (continued)

The domain holders stood victorious in what was now nothing more than a field of rubble. There was chaos as their deaths ripped the threads of reality and tore out multiple large strands. 

It was a strange thing for us. Even for Lumoof, it felt as if the world itself mourned the death of so many. 

For Stella, though, it was horrifying. 

She would later say it felt as if the familiar voices of the void had suddenly tu...

Interlude - Edison and Marin

361.1 Infernal Confrontation

"Traitor!" 

The word echoed in the Dome of the Thousand Descendants. The place was built thousands of years ago, as a place for the Descendants to gather and discuss matters of great importance. The crowds were large, thousands packed into the place that could be best described as a stadium. 

“Traitor.” The Descendants whisper about the presence of traitors amongst them. Small roots poked out in the gaps, easily missed and hidden in the ground. No one was lo...

[RSM] Chapter 114. Escape II

[I was supposed to post this last night. I put my kids to sleep, and I slept next to them. And I was too tired to touch my laptop. So I could only do it now. My apologies. Also, RSM will be on break for the entire month of December. I will be pausing billings around 29-30 November. ]

Maybe it was survival instincts, maybe it was just wisdom. It was a lesson he learned rather early in life, that there was no use fighting all the fights, and it was infinitely better to wi...

361.05 Infernal Affairs II [And December Break Announcement]

361.05

It was not hard to find Erasian Relics on a world made by Eras, especially worlds with incredibly long and almost continuous history. There were many things tossed aside over the centuries, and worlds like the Five Erasian Core Worlds, with their many generational and developmental layers, were definitely archaeological diamond mines. 

Here, on worlds where worship of Eras was strongest, the Descendants had to spend great effort to destroy old relics that went...

[RSM] Chapter 113. Escape

Two days after the Blood Banquet of Kaorlia

"Sect Master Fox is missing." Deputy Sect Master Severian summoned the elders, Elly, Celestia, and the core disciples, and said words that they feared. He then unfurled the paper scroll that contained the exact details of his disappearance and his crimes. "He was last spotted in the Imperial City of Kaorlia, and has been marked as one of the wanted criminals by Prince Kaorl's faction." 

There was an audible gasp and shock t...

My vines and roots spread quickly through the Library of Eras. 

Stones were brittle, and gaps emerged over time. Steel and metal rusted. Even bronze and copper shrunk and expanded with the weather. As structures aged and weathered, roots, vines, and crawlers found it easy to infiltrate the gaps. The holes.

I did my best to hide them from the gaze of the Descendants. We appeared as dull as we could, our colors matched those of our environment. If the stones were gr...

360. The Red Herring

360

Hoyia landed on the Aivan world and felt the world shift. Traveling via void portals, especially how she had to make so many hops through different worlds, was a drain physically. There was something about being flung through a small void tunnel through the void sea that was nauseating and exhausting.

She very much preferred the gentle comforts of Aeon's teleportation. Point to point teleportation was truly amazing, but alas, good things could not be everywhere, because they r...

[RSM] Chapter 111. Schemed

[ My apologies for the delay. There were parts I was not too happy with, so I kept tweaking it over the past two days. ]

Banquets were tiring affairs. He had been the host many times, and also as guests. Though he knew of many others who seemed to be energized by them. 

Tundra was not one of those types. 

Tundra loved reading and studying. That was how he rebuilt his own focus and energy levels, and so, he often felt a sense of admiration fo...

Year 339

Once every two weeks, the old Temple of the Erasian Studies played host to a sermon by the Descendants. According to Gorkun's records, the ancient temple was once a place of worship, where great magicians and researchers of Eras were exalted with an audience with Eras himself. 

Somewhere over the past few thousand years, the Temple was renovated and changed into the Temple of the Reviver. 

A horrific sculpture of the monstrous Re...

[RSM] Interludes - From Ripples To Floods

Interlude - Titans

"Do you know what this is about?" Nord Truehaven asked his fellow branch leader, Karen Earthant. They were both peers in the eighth realm, and fellow members of the Titans. 

The fact that they were summoned to the Titan Peaks were clues, but there was an air of tension they rarely felt. The Sect Master's aura could be felt for miles all round, and even as he tried his best to hold it in, his emotional state could be felt even in the waiting rooms down bel...

Library of Eras

The streets of the city were filled with noise. The constant hum of work in the background. There were at least a few kinds of steam-powered machines and crystal-powered machines working in the background. 

The buildings were covered with pipes and little thin crystal rods, both for the purposes of transporting hot steam and magical energies, and their constant hum served as the Library's background soundtrack. Unlike the elves, the dwarves ...
