AN: Sorry about the late upload. I took a nap and forgot to set an alarm.

I could see the Genestealer Patriarch’s stupid face snap towards me, its beady black eyes full of malice and hunger staring into my own as the portal hissed up.
It took a moment to process the sudden appearance of a portal right behind it, and the sight that greeted it on the other side. It was a moment too long as I exploded into action, not even calling on any of my weapons as I punche...

Valenith looked down at the world he had been entrusted with by his Mistress. He knew it was only the first of many, but such things meant something. This was where she went from a wandering rogue psyker to a sovereign of her own making, and this was the world that housed her subjects, the ones that chose to be her subjects. It was also a prototype, he assumed, a framework for how she would rule worlds conquered or otherwise added to her domain.
Vallia. The heart of her w...

‘To You, My Friend Across Time,
If you are reading this, events have unfolded according to my most bleak predictions. Or at least, very near to it. For this letter to make it into the hands of one who can read it, the threads of Fate dictate a rather specific sequence of events. One, I am in some way indisposed. Two, humanity remains but is much diminished and once more consumed by its self-defeating internal conflicts. Three, the Eye of Terror has expanded to stretch acr...

“Fascinating,” Trazyn found himself saying, staring at the sensor readouts. Serenade had been a dead world for centuries now, ever since the Imperium committed Exterminatus upon it in the wake of … Trazyn’s minor miscalculation.
In his defence, he had never dealt with Genestealers before that incident. How was he to know that letting a few of them loose as a distraction to make his escape would spiral out of control so massively? He certainly hadn’t considered the humans...

AN: I managed to get my laptop back in record time! (I'd lent it to a friend, cause I haven't used the damned thing since college). We are right back on schedule ... if this one doesn't commit ritualistic suicide too. The incense burners are up, burning sacred incense, and I'm blasting Noosphere music while writing this, so hopefully the Machine Spirit is pleased.

Two Avatars, I could get used to this. Lightyears apart, both acting out my will. One worked al...

My PC just died and I don’t have my laptop on me. Which is a problem because I haven’t scheduled today’s chapter.
If all goes well, I’ll be getting my laptop back tomorrow, so the chapter should be out not on Wednesday but Thursday. I already have the next two chapters written, so worst case scenario is that I dump them both on Saturday.
Sorry about that, and thanks for your understanding!

I let the silence hang, drinking in the sight and feel of the battle above. Of two Gods clashing.
“That C’tan shard he is fighting needs to die,” Trazyn announced in a low tone, glancing at me. “Finish it off, and I’ll … remove some of the restrictions I’ll place on my Crypteks while they educate you.”
“Make them teach me how to form necrodermis into more useful forms,” I said without thought. The idea had been with me for a while, and now I had the oppor...

AN: Happy New Year! Cheers to you all!

I was still watching the fight between Orikan and the last Deceiver Shard when Trazyn finished up, his newly filled Tesseract Labyrinth hanging from his metallic hips.
“If you are interested in World Spirits, I have a sizable shard of another one in my collection,” Trazyn said conversationally. “I believe it would be well within your rights to ask for it in return for services rendered today.”
I thought about it for...

I pulled enough soul energy into my body to strain what my soulbone skeleton could hold, and to rupture blood vessels all across my fleshy bits. A telekinetic blast ripped out from me, a simple omnidirectional shockwave that travelled at the speed of thought and threw back C’tan shards and nearby Necron warriors alike.
A tendril of eldritch flesh ripped out from my back so fast it broke the sound barrier, and the ball-like appendage at the end of it slammed into the ground right in th...

AN: Merry Christmas in advance, and a ... merry Christmas Eve? Is that what I'm supposed to say today? I always get told, "Thanks, but Christmas is Tomorrow." when I say 'merry Christmas' on the 24th. Anyway, enough of my ramblings. Happy Holidays. Chapter be upon Thee.

“Nice trick," I said conversationally. “Got any more up your sleeve?”
“What manner of creature are you?” Mephet’ran mused, ignoring my question. “A last d...
