Only two today. Honestly, most of my day was me thinking about the details of what Rand says at the end of this chapter... so look forward to that.
Randidly arrived in Donnyton more like an unpopular aunt than a celebrated hero; he arrived silently while bearing his own luggage. Se...

It had been a while since Randidly had used his hands rather than his Skills to work with plants. Part of him felt somewhat strange at first, digging around the plants and pulling out weeds, pruning the dying stems from the flowers. Idly, he flicked the odd bug from the underside of leaves.
But the more tha...

Arbor, Ajax, and Madelyn crouched around Naffur, who was vomiting noisily into a metal bucket.
“This is my fault,” Ajax said with a shake of the head. “A miscalculation on my part. I had not predicted he would appear. And to take his frustrations out on you-”
“No,” Naffur managed to speak ...

Sometimes I look at the chapter number and just shake my head. Why did I do this to myself.
Then I think how amazing it is how much a life can change in two years.
In spite of himself, Randidly couldn’t help but grin and spin around to tackle Arbor when they were out of sight of th...

Randidly was very annoyed. Because he couldn’t find this Naffur and had spent a few hours summoning riders and sending them against monsters of various Levels. At Skill Level 1, his Rider had about as much strength as something who possessed a Level in the low 30s. At Skill Level 20, he gained the ability to su...

Before Helen and Alana’s party left, Randidly pulled Alana, Dozer, and Annie to the side and had a brief talk with them. Luckily, it seemed that whatever Dozer had done to Annie after carrying her off had vastly improved her mood; she was practically beaming while Randidly explained some of the messages he wanted to pass on...

After a slight deviation, back to regularly scheduled programing. We will try the Monday Tuesday, Thursday Friday schedule this week.
There were giant pink clouds floating above Randidly. They seemed profoundly puzzling. As he stared up at them, they seemed to wiggle and wave; despite th...

And three more tomorrow.
Randidly looked around at the ten or so people inside the tent.
Other than himself, there was Helen, Dozer, Alana, Annie, Ptolemy, and a half dozen high-Level fighters from the assorted squads. It was somewhat nostalgic to see these people again, and also s...

What a weird week.
Randidly found Azriel among one of the small cloisters of White Hunters, participating in their training regimen. The area given to them was filled with towering, gnarled trees that kept the area shaded. It was cool and breezy, and largely silent, aside from the small ...
2019-02-16 06:21:40 +0000 UTC View PostIt turns out today is Valentine’s Day, so I don’t think I’ll be able to edit and release tonight.
So I guess two Friday and three Saturday? I might do three tomorrow and then the two on the weekend.
Woo, why can I just go write in a hyperbolic time chamber and then pop out with everything done.

After the meeting, Alana volunteered as an escort to take the ogres to their new living quarters. As most everyone else didn’t want to risk going that deep into monster controlled territory, she was the only one that accompanied the ogres.
Randidly figured it would be fine; he feared more for the og...

Despite the fact that Randidly overwhelmed the strange plant goliath spell, the Obyrn Ironfist insisted in continually reiterating his own Level superiority at every chance he got. It made for tiresome negotiations. Often, the discussions about the treatment of ogres would stall out for several minutes after he b...

After some consideration, I've decided to take the advice of a commenter and switch my schedule a bit to posting Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday.
Mostly, I generally have trouble midweek trying to get the scenes written in a way I like. This will help.
Since its only the last chapter that messed me up today, I'll be posting two today, two tomorrow, and then three Friday.

As Obyrn had suspected, Alana appeared after the ogres had demolished the first wave of metal beasts that harried them. Although they were resistant to projectiles, the metal beasts ceased functioning after a single hit from an ogre warhammer. They were fragile, brittle things.
Unfortunately, about twenty o...

Very quickly, Randidly shook his head to dispel the negative thoughts; he could dwell later. Right now, it was time to figure out what was happening on Earth. The biggest lead that Randidly had was that Alana was extremely concerned when they connected a few days ago, so he spread his Aether Detection and followe...

When Randidly returned to Earth, he did so silently. He popped into existence on the same low mountain West of his Erickson Steel headquarters on which he departed. The dry stones rattled as he poofed into existence on top of them. Clouds spread out like a flax blanket across the morning horizon in an endless exp...

“We should have attacked them when we first spotted them. Crushed them to paste,” Annie grumbled.
Dozer shook his head. “Not our call. Better to let them feel comfortable over there.”
“If we end up having to storm this fortress, you’ll admit that I was right,” Annie said pointedly. The t...

“Pass the salt,” Edmund Dugg said. He also pointed, as though no one would understand what he was referring to otherwise.

Also, just one day of non-Randidly to touch in on a few situations. Then we need to start getting into the thick of things.

Oh, here's a good space for reader input. How much non-Rand POV should there be before he arrives back? I don't plan to fill in all the gaps of what has happened while he has been gone, but suffice to say things have been rough on Earth.

The details of Rand's talk are important, but I wanted to wrap these issues up quickly. So allow me to brush over it for now. We will get to it Monday.

I didn't start this story out as much of a planner, so bringing Tellus to its finale was a lot of head scratching for a while. But I really like how this has turned out. Threads have come back more readily that I would have expected.
