It didn't take long for Mara to get there.
“Was it odd? Finding out that you were a prince of all things?” Kathrine asked while sipping at her tea again and giving Riven an appraising glance. “Did it phase you?”
“It doesn’t mean much to me, honestly. I was more interested in finding out about my mother and father rather than anything else, but it appears none of you know what happened either.” Riven yawned, putting...

Kathrine Vonsilla Crushada the 9th, eldest daughter to the Duke and Dutchess of House of Crushada, 107th in line for the vampiric throne, was not in a good mood.
“Yes instructor Pladius…” Kathrine said for the twelfth time that night while brushing a comb through her long locks of brunette hair - staring at a slim figure wearing a black dress that she seemed to barely recognize lately in the mirror. “I realize it’s important, but there...

Salzahar glared daggers at the leaving vampire from atop a ledge above the audience hall. He fidgeted with the hoop earing on his right side, chittering to himself while consider whether or not he should take the shot at his long-time rival now.
The plan to lead the dwarves over to Snagger’s position had been fumbled, utterly fumbled, and he’d been left humiliated while losing out on a huge amount of profit the dwarves had laid out for him an...

Riven stood beside his two minions in an audience chamber, with Mesha and her cousin Snagger beside them. The room was coated in multicolored crystals and illuminated by glowing multi-colored gemstones set into the walls. There were also two rows of elevated platforms that came down from the sides of the room like the stands of a stadium would, with higher ranking members of Snagger’s rat-kin brood filing in for what was apparently the very fir...

The trees had begun to turn from vibrant green to a dark gray and black, many of them losing their leaves entirely or illuminating deathly teal light. The grass had gone from a healthy look to a gray-silver, and unnerving fogs blocked their sight even though it was midday. Though the accumulation of dark clouds in the sky that seemed to settle in ever-more without signs of leaving any time soon didn’t help their vision problems either - and it...

“Alright, we’ll come up with a name for our new city after you cull the opposition. Remember not to just butcher anything in sight, I mean that, and catch you later.” The call with Allie ended, and he deposited the black communication bauble in his bag of holding. Riven thumbed through the pages of one of the large books he’d taken off the dwarves, walking behind Snagger down the underdark tunnels with a gleeful grin and gave Athela...

Gurth’Rok looked back at the reflection in the mirror, and he put his hand against the glass to try and wipe away the disfigured features he saw. The wooden mask to his left had been worn for many years now, a reminder of his failures. The scars he bore and the upper lip that’d been ripped off to give him his ever-present snarl still radiated remnant magics of a long forgotten curse that’d been resistant to his attempts at healing. It...

Azmoth immediately tore forward and slammed a foot down in the direction of the oncoming projectiles, not wasting any time and sending a shockwave of kinetic energy through the air. Stone shrapnel form the cave floor was thrown up, creating a temporary cloud of dust, and vast majority of the projectiles shattered or were thrown aside due to the shockwave.
But three made it through.
Mesha squealed in pain and ...

What stepped out of the portal was very far from the handsome figure of Fay’s brother. Riven could make out distinguishing features that told him it was the same man, the same incubus, but he looked haggard and beaten to an extreme.
Tupper’s right leg was necrotic and bent at an awkward angle, and the rest of his body looked starved. His face was half burned, skin flayed off the side of his skull as he limped forward, and one of his win...

“It’s not that big of a deal!” Allie protested in hushed tones, embarrassed that she was getting chewed out by her older brother in front of all the people she led even despite having went into the adjacent cellar to have some privacy. “Keep your voice down!”

Flashes of multi-colored light erupted from the planting rod, and over the course of minutes Riven’s guild hall came into fruition.
After moving around to the front of the building, it was just like the pictures. A large central tower was present over the main entrance where very thick, wooden double doors with enormous ringed knocker handles on the outside. The upper floors on the third level had balconies, each with a stone gargoyle dep...

Blood and viscera tore through Kathrine’s abdomen and white sparks of high-speed shrapnel blasted towards Allie’s face with a high-pitched screeching sound that dulled the senses. Allie’s eyes went wide, Kathrine let out a horrified scream, the heavily armed guards jolted forward with shouts of alarm, and more of the flaring metals continued to blast out of the exploding thrall to head towards the three royals.

Riven side-eyed his sister with a growing grin as Azmoth walked over to play with his new hammer, and he nudged her in the side to get her attention under the dim glow of starlight and the green flaming halo overhead. “Hey, I do have one other thing for you before we move on.”
Allie evaluated his smug posturing and took a wary step back. “You better not fucking tickle me or something stupid like that. I’ll fight back.”

“NO! THESE ARE MY SHINY’S!” Athela screeched while in spider form, wearing a small empty treasure chest that’d been dumped out on her head, while simultaneously waist deep in the pile of gold and platinum. She angrily swatted at the coins to make her hill of wealth shake, reminding Riven of a toddler when they didn’t get their ice cream. “MY SHINY’S! MY SHINY’S! MY SHINY’S!”

Riven’s staff channeled sparks of dark lightning up the fleshy, whip-like tendril attached to its embedded blade. Deep inside the drake’s brain, the large monster spasmed and twitched - and eventually settled down into death while Azmoth ripped a large hole and stepped out of its smoking throat.

Hakim quickly swung his huge axe down onto the monster’s head with a ‘Lacerate’ martial art that would make any of his fellow Barbarian-class counterparts green with envy, and the large lizard spasmed while many more of its blue-scaled kin rushed his way.

“Fine!” Riven laughed and held up both his hands in surrender when Allie whipped out her wand and started jabbing him in the side. “I’ll stop fucking with your hair, ok! Jesus! OW!”

Harpoons launched from the trees, imbued with blinding white light of holy origins that slammed into the two being held down. Riven’s body was easily pierced completely through, rupturing internal organs and sending his innards out the other side.

Riven’s journey back was a quiet one while he contemplated the things Gurth’Rok the orc had said. Pondering the chieftain’s words and feeling not just a little bit guilty about slaughtering so many of them to defend the elvish village, he wondered what the morally right choice would have been.
But he did not dwell on it for long. In this world, he could only do what he thought was right at the time. Thinking about how he ‘coul...

The story Athela had put a large damper on the mood, and Riven was unsure of what to think regarding the orcs and their situation. On one hand they’d killed and eaten many humans and elves in the area alike, apparently admitting raiding surrounding towns or villages that’d popped up after the integration and leaving them as husks of what they once were. On the other hand, the orcs had claimed that they weren’t entirely at fault here - of wh...
