“What am I supposed to wear for this, Lily?” Arthur said. “These are the god kings of the Demon World, right?”
“God kings?” Lily looked confused but soldiered on. “Why are you asking me? I’m normal. I don’t do Arthur things. You should ask...

It was not a dud.
Arthur’s brief attempt at a dry description of his majicka-storing boba was a flash bang, fully shocking the room awake. The majicka boba was something only he could do, for the moment, but the fact that he could do it without explicit involvement fro...

Trivial Rarity and System Unpreparedness
The system, for all its power, lacks time. Over the centuries, scholars of all stripes have remarked on some minor way the system has “fleshed out” its ability to communicate some concept. In these modern da...

Eito led them away from the hotel at a crisp pace, moving in a direction Arthur hadn’t gone yet. Half a mile later, the group arrived at a sort of ramp that dropped into a covered area, big enough that four people could descend side by side at the same time.
“A tunnel? This takes us to where trucks are?” Arthur asked, accidentally slipping in an Earth-word.
“A tunnel, yes, but...” Eito moved down the ramp with Arthur and Lily in tow. “Please stop using that word. The t...

The second shower of the day was amazing.
Arthur had taken two showers on the same day before, but it had always been when he needed both. It was for utility. But this? This was raw hedonism. This was Caligula stuff. He swam in the water for a half ...

“I can’t believe you didn’t bring Rhodia. Whatever will you do with yourself?” Ella asked. “I brought mine. See? If you bring them, they’re with you. It’s not hard.”
Minos patted his wife’s hand as they walked arm in arm. “Now now. The boy made a mistake. We can’t all be smart all the time.”
“Mom. Dad. Come on,” Milo said. “She didn’t want to come. She’s been here recently, she has her own work to do, and she said, ‘you are going to spend all yo...

By the time Arthur was done, everyone else was already out in the foyer waiting for him.
“There you are,” Mizu said. “You smell better.”
“It’s the soap. I think it has flowers in it,” Arthur said.
She went up on tiptoes, bent him over a bit, and smelled his hair. “I think it’s blue star. And something else. I really like it.”
“Oh, you love to see it,” Ella said. “Did I ever tell you about the time I caught them on that bench, Itela? Both of th...

After the literal dust had cleared and the combination of Mizu and Milo emptied, welded, and reinforced a water pipe, the two groups finally had time to greet each other. As Arthur guessed, Karbo had gotten bored at some point and covered the last few hours of travel midair, dragging Itela, Ella, Minos, Eito, and a very terrified wagoner with him.
Now that the guards were gone, they were all reacting to this in very different ways.
“Dad! Mom!” Milo shook some of the water and ...

“Milo, where are you going?” Arthur asked.
“The industrial district. No question,” Milo answered without any hesitation.
“That makes sense. I’d imagine there’s a lot of smithing there.”
“Not just smithing. It’s bigger than that.” Milo made some sweeping arm gestures over his head, trying to indicate just how big. “It’s all of industry. Making things. Fixing things. Melting things. Pouring things. I’m not just a smith now. I’m a machinist. It’s...

Arthur watched as Talca and Littal combined their wagon-moving forces to maneuver around a section of road that had, based on what Arthur could see, simply fallen away to the side, paving material and all. The actual motion around the hazard wasn’t that impressive and even seemed like something Arthur could handle. What made it more of a feat was that Talca’s wagon was moving so fast. As it swerved around the newly generated ditch, it must have been going forty miles an hour.
“Gee...

I’ve said this somewhere before, but writing is both absurdly hard and absurdly easy. I’ve had a bunch of jobs that were pretty bad in a lot of stressful, abusive, terrible ways, and writing is far and away easier than all of them. I get up, I have some ideas, I type those ideas, I slightly edit those ideas to be more pleasing to your eye, and then I take a nap.
The hard part, which anyone who has written knows, is doing it every day. For a large part of the writing of this book, th...
