Also a reason for the delay was my frustration that I couldn't get away from Rand as quickly as I wanted. But now we are moving on to a larger scale battle.


 

At Randidly’s echoing words, Acri trilled happily. With its elastic body, Acri quickly coiled into a spring and launched itself up thro...

First status of new schedule! But more to do with Halloween festivities than anything else.

Well, a little bit more Randidly.



Sulfur hummed pleasantly even as Randidly flexed his right hand and popped a finger back into place. It was great that one of them was enjoying the experience, but Randidly felt rather exasperated that his armor now-made-right-arm wasn’t more concerned with t...

Today I also took some time to outline.  Tomorrow will start to see bigger players come out to play on the battle. But it's been fun giving  Rand so much screen time.

Randidly narrowed his eyes and tried to handle the tasks of both distracting the Nether Gatekeeper and assisting against the surrounding Nether Beasts. His attention was stretched to his limit. Chimeric Avoidance.

Travel day. Ugh, I hate early flights.


 

From their vantage point on top of the fort, the sounds of the battlefield were almost distant. It was easy to feel separated from the suffering happening below. Vualla clenched her fists tightly, making her metal gauntlets shake. The interim Commander sh...

When Randidly removed the mental blinders he had carefully erected during his interaction with Vualla, the sea of information that Grim Intuition provided him crashed against his senses. For several seconds, Randidly had to stop his mad dash back toward Lady Iellaya’s camp and simply process everything that was ...

Also, a week with no statuses? Who am I =P


Randidly’s Grim Intuition was ominously pulsing during the entire journey to find Vualla amongst the numerous forces on the frontlines. Not the least of which was because there was suddenly a whole slew of reinforcements on the Aether side that made it extremely diffi...

As Vualla slowly slipped her numb hands into her heavy iron gauntlets, she had to suppress the ball of panic that was running through her chest like a rabid rodent. For each time since the strange dreams started, Vualla would have her...

Randidly watched Lady Iellaya rush up the hill without comment for three reasons. Then he sighed, shook his head, and began to walk in the direction of the longer path, leaving Lady Iellaya alone in this area of karma. He left the burned-out grass and the fading arrays behind him, creating some space between the t...

At that moment where all of her carefully assembled accomplishments fell to pieces, Lady Iellaya felt fear. A hopeless fear like she hadn’t known since the first days when she learned how powerless she truly was from the Nexus, when she struggled to gather enough energy to survive. As one who grew up while her ...

Hindsight on Randidly’s own process of crafting his Fate equipped him with a much more well-honed series of tools with which to address this project. Randidly started by wading into the tall grass adjacent to the longer path/shorter path sign and using Absolute Grasp of Yggdrasil to clear out a large area of all the grass. A...

Lady Iellaya covered her smile with her hand as Lord Miln glared at the recently arrived Randidly Ghosthound. Lord Miln’s eyes were so cold that the temperature within the tent immediately dropped several degrees.

“Uh oh. Uh oh,” Octavius Shrike hissed in growing alarm as he looked at the carefully calibrated instruments he had arrayed in front of him. His mastery of Aether had been stretched to the limits to make all these methods to keep track of the slippery and paranoid Randidly Ghosthound. And now those in...

With three and a half hours until he needed to meet with Lord Miln, Randidly slipped away from Lady Iellaya’s camp and arrived at a spot he had prepared ahead of time in the badlands. It wasn’t far from the frontlines, but it would hopefully mask his location. It was enough just to take himself out of the spotlight.

Based on some inspiration he had received from Vualla’s effortlessly brilliant Aether Engravings, Randidly created a large array around his chosen locatio...

Six months after she ran away from home, Illym remembered her surprise at being a relatively well-known killer on her current planet. People would pay her quite a bit of money, either to kill someone or not kill someone. Illym, somewhat glad to have found something that she was extraordinary at, accepted the money.

There were sometimes attempts on her life, or others paid to do the opposite of what she was doing, but that honestly just excited Illym more. For a few seconds,...

Look, a full week and reaching the goal of 10. I honestly think this will be the schedule moving forward. Much more manageable.


 

Seeing the smoking remnants of the Skill that was clearly another attempt to control him brought Randidly quite a bit of pleasure. But he didn’t miss the way that the Path altered itself halfway through to incorporate aspects of his Nether notes, something that Randidly hadn’t possessed when he originally gained the Path.

These are a little shorter, just because its much more time consuming to do the Stat based stuff. Should finish it out today, and on toward condensing a Fate~

For several long seconds, those two images were all that Randidly could see. The apple, hanging fat and ripe, disappearing and reappearing somewhere else as leaves rippled and passed in front of it. Watching, observing, passive, above everything that occurred below.

Sick 😷. But the chapters are written. I can get them out in like 12ish hours when I'm up. And I don't want to fall behind, so I'll put out at least one additional one tomorrow.

For Randidly to achieve the effect that he was looking for, he needed one more push from the Path. That, combined with a very concentrated push from his image, should be enough to create the Skillset. The trick...

Randidly raised his hand slowly as he considered the notifications he received from finishing his Path. He had received a fair amount of Endurance and Resistance as he put PP into it, but the ultimate reward was a little underwhelming on its face. In total, Randidly had spent 1000 PP for only 10 to each of his phy...

Two statuses in a row 🥶. But tiring weekend. I think I'll settle into the two a day schedule through the weekdays. 

I think I could do the two today, but I'd rather reset fully going into next week. Because this feels much more sustainable.

Okay, time to move toward the end of this arc!

Just an emotionally exhausting day for unrelated reasons. I'll put two chapters out tomorrow. I actually like the two a day schedule
