Concurrence Chapter 4-6

2703 words. Begins at the astericks. Astrix? Asterisk? I feel like I've never typed that word before.

Her eyes met his brown ones. “You jested before that I always thought the Covenant was in the wrong. I do not regret my service to the cause, but in that moment, when I saw that child, it was a very… stark reminder that the Covenant is not all it is made out to be back on the homeworld.”****

“So that’s it?” he asked. “Almost shooting a kid was what g...

Suvelian Artwork

Brought to yall by empyrea1, we get a nice look at the typical suit orientation worn by Suvelians not in the field. I hope to one day describe what they look like beneath their suits, perhaps accompany it with some artwork, but for now, we'll keep that a mystery. 

Concurrence Chapter 4-5

2800 words. Reworked a few of the initial paragraphs so there's some slight overlap from the last update

“This was all I could find,” she said, depositing her find on the countertop. He quirked a brow at her haul – a few pieces of fruit, a houseplant, and a collection of random household items.

“Better than nothing,” he said, grabbing an orange off the counter before it rolled away. He slid it along with his own findings across the counter, appraising their fo...

Here are the final versions of Dragons Games in ebook formats for all patrons. Thank you all so much for your support!

Concurrence Chapter 4-4

3000 words give or take.

The Major considered leaving her. She was a huge target that would just draw even more attention to him, and the Covenant would be focused on her while he snuck away, but something gave him pause. She was a prime source of intel on the Covenant, and if he could exfil her, humanity would have a chance to learn more about the Covenant’s plans, that kind of information could be crucial for Earth’s survival.

“Damn it,” he muttered after hesitating. He ...

The Major

Streets of New Mombasa

Eight Hours After Rupture

“I don’t know what I’m looking at here,” the Major muttered.

Winking an eye shut, he adjusted the magnification with his right hand, using his left to hold the scope to his opened eye. There was no real reason to carry scopes when his shotgun was his go-to weapon, but it was small, portable, and perfect for recon.

The view granted...

Concurrence Chapter 4-2

2383 words. Sorry its a little less wordy this time round but I'll have more soon.

The Major stepped through the blast doors, calling back over his shoulder: “You have no reason to know my sources.”

Echoing her own words made her mandibles twitch in anger, the Elite following him through to the next street over. As she stepped off the metal blockade, the door returned to its closed state, the sudden grating of machinery making the Elite whip around in alarm.

Hub Citizen Artwork

"The circle of life on the Hub is obvious, moreso when looking at it from a ship."

Artwork tease for the Hub Citizen tier. 

Dragons Games Epilogue Pt2

Here are the next 3300 words of the epilogue. I shall reevaluate the whole shebang and make some tweaks, then start getting ebooks in order.

“I’ve got just the reward in mind for you,” she cooed, Jim helping her to her feet once they’d got their breathing under control. He followed her inside. Jim had been sure to pick out a place big enough for a fully sized Pokémon, as he wasn’t quite sure how big a Garchomp could get in their prime, the walls and ceiling spaced ...

Dragons Games Epilogue

Here are the first 3000 words to the Epilogue of Dragons Games (the true ending, no AU). You may notice some similarities to the alternate ending, save for one, obvious detail. Keep tuned for the rest.

Epilogue

Jim wiped the arrow off the whiteboard with his thumb, he didn’t like that angle of attack, flipping the lid off his marker as he got to work thinking of something else. There was only so much he could consider from the safety of the training room, but wi...

The Major

Streets of New Mombasa

Seven Hours After Rupture

The gentle patter of his boots stepping into puddles of water was drowned out over the downpour, but his strange companion made even less sound despite being nearly twice his size, the Major stealing the occasional glance at her to confirm she was still there as they made their way from street to street, the alien content to hang back ten or so mete...

The Major

Kikowani Station

6 Hours After Rupture

“Think that’s all of em’,” the Major said, replacing his spent shells. “You can come out now. That you, Holiday?”

Holiday always had an affinity with Covenant weapons, but she wasn’t one to stay quiet when he called her, the Major frowning behind his visor as he examined the train. This whole side of it had been rendered black with plasma f...

Tiers Revamped

I will be personalizing the patron tiers to something more reflective of my original works, which from here on out will reflect mostly the various species I plan on introducing to my Pantheaverse, cause I like aliens, and I hope you all do to.

All these levels shall include discord roles/benefits as well. 

Here's what I am thinking:

Hub Citizen: Replaces tier 1, typical entry level, you are residents on the ringworld from Folium Nebula. Artwork for this is currently und...

Concurrence Chapter 3-2

2524 words.

She had dropped them all in a matter of moments, but that wasn’t the entire hunting party. She heard a Jiralhanae bellow a challenge at her from somewhere above, one she met with her own roar, bracing her carbine on the lip of the window.

Her earlier suspicions were confirmed as another Jiralhanae entered the complex, the waning daylight at his back as he crouched by the threshold, his red armour square in her sights. He must have thought himself out of her view as h...

Concurrence Chapter 3-1

Sorry for the delay was taking my sweet time with this opening. 2364 words incoming.

Seela

Kikowani Station

5 Hours After Rupture

The light from the setting star had become a strange, dusty orange, and Seela didn’t like it. Clouds of ash began to broil the heavens, darkness enveloping the world as the strength of the sun began to wane, the guttural roars of those who would see her dead flowing on the screaming wind. ...

Concurrence Chapter 2-3

2446 words. That'll be it for chapter 2 after I go back and whip any typos into shape.

The Major

Kikowani Station

6 Hours After Rupture

Water splashed onto his shins as the Major stepped into the puddle in front of the kiosk, his gloved fingers tapping at the letters of the touchscreen keyboard. This had been the third kiosk he’d sought for after the first one had bugged out, each one either glitching out or pointing...

Concurrence Chapter 2-2

2953 words

The Zealot turned away in some vain attempt to hide his shame, Seela allowing herself a little bit of a smile as he finally shut his mandibles for two seconds.

“We have more pressing issues to address,” the Marshal went on. “there is no time to waste squabbling amongst ourselves, so listen. There has been a complete restructuring of the chain of command, directly from the Prophet himself. I am… no longer to be your Field Marshal.”

“Are you being replac...

Seela

Streets of New Mombasa

30 Minutes Before Rupture

She watched the planet’s star begin to sink beneath the urban horizon, the plummeting temperature making her shiver beneath her power armour, pausing on the next corner to catch her breath. Her Kig-Yar had been running down the Human survivors through the winding streets non-stop, panting like a pack o...

Dragons Games Bonus Scene part 2(of 2)

The last 3140 words. According to my word doc Dragons Games is 123,141 words long. Hot dog that's a lot. Thank you guys once again for your support this thing was a long time in the making (The whole story, not this bonus scene)

She giggled when he gave her an annoyed look, her laugh petering out when he reached out and took one of her generous boobs into his hand, the flesh too heavy to fit in just one palm. Her nipple dug into his fingers, and he seized it, beginning to slo...

Dragons Games Bonus Scene

Here is a little bonus AU scene following the ending of Dragons Games, the first 2585 words at least. Wanted to release the whole thing but it'll take me another day to finish it up, so keep your eyes peeled.

AU: Slow Burn

“Come on guys, lift those knees! Left right, left right!”

The team was heaving beneath their jerseys, running as a group of sweat-riddled boys who forced anyone they passed to shield their noses from their stench. The more depleted amo...

Dragons Games Chapter 11-3

Final 3000 words. Give or take some edits. Still need to type 'the end' and all that, but if their would be a credits scene, this would prelude it. I want to thank each of you again, this has been a long time in the making, though it's not QUITE the end as I'll be chalking up a bonus scene as I hinted at before. 

Just as she was entertaining the thought of pulling up to one of the huts, she spotted something. There, on the shores off the islet to her left, was a skiff, d...

The city was bustling with activity, dense with establishments and venues promising all manners of entertainment. Even at this hour there were people in the streets, basking in the neon glow of shop stalls, the smell of cooking food wafting into her nose. It wasn’t at all like her last hometown, but that wasn’t a bad thing, she always preferred the busier places.

It was a natural extension of her love of the stage spotlight, and why she cou...

The Choice

“Wait!” Cassidy yelled over the cheering. Some relatives in the audience had made their way onto the stage to congratulate their children, and in only moments the whole theatre was a mess of people. “Jim come back!”

But he wasn’t listening, disappearing into stage left, the backwall hiding him f...

Dragons Games Chap 10-5 redo, question, and update.

This is my second attempt at chapter 10's conclusion. I wanted to thank you all for your support so far. Just want to put it out there that any feedback or suggestions are welcome, particularly with this one, since I've had flak in the past about reveals and conclusions (looking at you The boy and the Queen). Also wanted to say this is NOT the end of dragons games, we have 1 more chapter to go and possibly an epilogue, if I don't roll them into one setting. 

I've also been thinking...

Dragons Games Chap 10-5 out of 5

2600 words. Biggest moments here, needs to be done right. 

And she did. For about thirty seconds she spoke, and Jim stood still throughout the whole thing, his expression shifting from concern to horror with each word she said, until she closed her chops with a sigh.

Thirty seconds. That was all it took to change it, for everything to make a kind of disturbed sense, his mind filling in the blanks that had been left open all this time. Thirty seconds.

He turne...

Dragons Games Chap 10-4

5160 words. You'll know why this one is bigger, I had to end it where I did.

Half the stands shouted out in joy, while the other booed and sulked, directing their insults towards Jim, who flinched when something hard smacked into his back, Jim looking down to see a water bottle laying on the grass.

Spartan supporters vaulted over the barriers, rushing onto the field, hands thrown up in victory as they crowded the winning team, the players gathering into a big group as t...

Dragons Games Chap 10-3

2729 words. 

Yet perhaps it did, the ball saying goodbye to physics at the last moment, jutting through the air at a rough angle and sailing straight through the posts, Jim matching the crowd’s enthusiasm as he pumped his fists, making sure he pointed and laughed at Erich when he could.

With the lead cemented, the Mythics played on, their morale high, and the halftime siren wailed without the Spartans gaining another point. The teams filed back to their respective changeroo...

Suvelians

I have an update for you all tomorrow but for now, have an artwork done by Ximema, of a female Suvelian in a more worker-oriented suit. Should have another one but Xim has gone silent so hopefully nothing bad's happened. Thought I uploaded this to yall before but I don't think I did.

Dragons Games chap 10-2

2332 words update. Changed the previous jokes because I wasn't happy with them. I like the weak password joke but it seemed a little out of place. Tough decisions I know. 

“Take a good look, Jim,” Erich said. “This’ll be the last time those sponsors look in your general direction after we kick your butts.”

“Money’s always involved when people have to look at you, Erich,” Jim shot back, Erich grumbling as the Mythics laughed at him.
