CH1026 ???'s Perspective
In the void, a person opened their eyes; the nothingness around them only contrasted by the chaos of their thoughts.
They didn’t know where they were, didn’t know what they were, didn’t even know who they were. Every probe of their mind brought with it fragments of memories, pounding at their head that made them grasp at it, giving them their first sight of their arms and made them recoil in horror.
Horrible things, their limbs looked twisted and warped, patches of flesh and...

<You’re going to kill yourself.>
No being a negative Nancy up there. It will probably be fine.

Are running out of options to awaken connect, Ben thought back with finality, trying to put an end to the conversation they’d been having ever since he’d told Myriad exactly how he’d been planning on attempting to awaken connect next. I’m running out of time, man, and the longer this doesn’t awaken, the more I’m beg...

Even in the days since her awakening, walking through town was a surreal experience for Thera. Everyone’s soul was in sight, and through that, everyone’s system information was visible. Ben may have been able to see soul structures and a person’s skills, but now she could see everything. Affinities and resistances, the jobs people had taken, the few of them with a title and the many with blessings, even if basically all of them had come from Myriad. It just felt like people were so expo...

“You know, I would have preferred if you’d mentioned something like this ahead of time,” Ceselee called out to Ben the next morning as he worked just outside of new dryad region of town, even with a crowd gathered to watch as he quickly constructed two giant arches, with materializers on standby to constantly produce all of the materials he needed for them while at the same time what was created flew through the air under the force of his magic, being shaped and enchanted on. “I don...

Stating that he intended for her to devote her time to raising herself after already securing the blessing, the realm finally exploded into a chaos of voices, the havoc leaving Ben a small sense of peace.
Ah, there it is. It really doesn’t feel right at this point if my meetings up here don’t piss someone off.
Immediately, there was a back and forth of reactions among the divine, with so many words aimed at him that he could pretend he couldn’t tell what everyone wa...

Laying in bed that night after a long day of losing, whatever team he was put on in their games having their fate largely sealed, Thera nestled into his arms, still wanting the comfort they provided, with the fear of losing him still fresh in her mind, even if she was taking it well.
“Seems like you had a good talk with Mora,” he said, the two of them not able to be so open about it earlier when the kids were around. “Everything went well?”
“It did,” she nodded. “He ...

New month, new poll! So, first month of the year is almost over, hope it’s been going well for all of you so far! Actually pretty happy to say that things have been going well so far myself; between family to see, a bit of an injury last year, and a few bouts of sickness all in the last few months of 2025 I was feeling a bit behind, using up a good chunk of my emergency backlog and whatnot but this entire month I feel like I’ve done a great job getting it back up to my standards, giving m...

“It’s about to start,” a god among the crowd spoke up, every deity there preparing for what was to come, but none more so than Phixth, with visions of chaos already swarming his thoughts.
“We just have to trust in our mortals,” the stone god told the rest of the crowd. “We haven’t spent so long raising them for something like this to lead to too much carnage.”
A few others among them echoed the sentiment that none of them actually believed as they all watched and w...

Another strong reaction incoming, I bet.
Since the hours she’d help at any hospital had been reduced in the name of forcing the other healers to refine their skills, the reaction to any time she would show up had become more desperate as the others made clear just how much they enjoyed the break she provided, and usually, that was intense enough. Coming back after other work left her skipping shifts though? She knew she was going to be walking in on a whole other level of des...

With pain gripping him, he shoved the feeling to a distant corner of his mind to instead focus on what he could see around him, he and the rest having been deposited in the heart of a dense forest, with Hentath’s thoughts telling him that at least they hadn’t been brought far. A handful of kilometers from the village at most, but still a devastating separation from the safety he’d wanted for them, with trouble not ending there.
“Ben, your leg!” Delair screamed, his student see...
