Dear Patrons,
Unfortunately with being sick and other unforeseen circumstances this month, I didn't really deliver much content even though it was supposed to be an awesome free month. To rectify this, I'm going to give one more month for free.
Might be ill advised to take another month off of getting paid, but I believe in honoring the spirit of something, and I want you to know how much I appreciate each of you. So, I will be giving Patreon another free month for the month of J...

Dear Patrons,
I hope this finds you well 🍻
Apologies for the light posting the last week, I currently have the flu and it is kicking my ass. I should hopefully be able to focus on writing again in 1-2 days. I already have half a chapter done for HTG and ROD.
Anyway, stay safe out there and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season ❤️
Chapters should start flowing again soon. Thank you for your patience 🙏
Respectfully,
Godric

Chapter One-Hundred-Twenty-Five – Velocity – Part Three
Expectations are infinitely evolving so that they extend past what we thought would make us happy. Not because they should, but because we allow them to. Such is the human condition. Were we not beholden to expectations, we’d be a much happier sort of creature.

The creature slams its head against hills as it moves forward, filling the skies with boulders and debris.

She turns her head, eyes growing wider. Curses sling from her mouth as she tries to dig deeper, she looks at me, and I can see in her eyes that I am ho...

Any thoughts you have on it please share it in the comments, or in Patreon chat, or the discord, or if you don't want to share with everyone, you can direct message me here or on discord. Once I have the first chapter for all the prompts, I'd greatly appreciate you taking the time to vote on the final poll.

Dear Patrons,
We are officially in December!
I come bearing gifts.
As a thank you for your continued support, I will be making December a free month for existing Patreon members. I will be pausing the billing for one month.
What this means for existing members: If your subscription is the 2nd-31st you won't be charged until next month. If it is on the 1st (Today), you will not be charged on January 1st, so your free month will be delayed.
For those who took adva...

Chapter One-Hundred-Eighty-Nine: Ulatar - Part Two
Planet: Etheria
Kotina’s watchful gaze travels from the cave’s entrance to my hand as I pick up the shard of Etherium. Light blossoms from the deep blue crystalline structure. Cracks in it create a cloudy view. It is small, but it is extremely potent. My will threads into desire and pulls the Etheric Maka from the shard. Energy vibrates up my arm and ...

Dear Patrons,
I hope you're all having a wonderful Monday! For my fellow Americans, happy early Thanksgiving!
I'm going to post a HTG chapter today and a ROD one tomorrow. I will be taking a few personal days this week for the Thanksgiving holiday to visit family. I'll try to post again on the weekend if I have time to write. It will for sure be back to regular schedule by Monday though, and I'll try my best to churn out a few extra chapters next week to make up for this week.

After a few more moments she comes back towards me, but she does not sit down, her eyes remain outside as she leans against the cave’s wall across...

You want me to allow the items you store to retain the velocity at which they were stored… I’m not opposed so long as the original agreement stands, it must be an object you can hold above your head in the normal gravity of your world, and as an added precaution, it can’t be the velocity while you travel through a System generated gate. There will also be no arguments later that something floating on w...

Going to stick to the current schedule of 3 x chapters a week minimum for ROD and HTG.
Let me know in the comments if you don't like this posting schedule.
Update for ROD: After writing the current Arc for ROD it has become clear that the narrative would suffer if I prolonged the ending of it.
That being said, it will likely conclude as a trilogy. Book two is almost over, and Enhanced Jimmy is... rather efficient. Could ...
