Chapter 9
“Do not let them push you about or belittle you, Drengr,” advised Queen Runa in a low tone as their group strode over the open ground between the two camps. “You may be a new recruit, but you are still of the Roaring Mountain. We do not abandon our own and you are only claiming what is yours by right.”
Casey nodded firmly, not varying his stride as he led the delegation of the Roaring Mountain to the designated meeting spot.
They’d arrive...

So the poll closed today on these, and it looks like it was pretty unanimous that you all wanted the longer, once weekly, seasonal short stories.
This'll run from a few weeks before Christmas to a few weeks into the new year. Exact dates will be forthcoming in a future post, but I want to do AT LEAST one short story per setting in play at the moment.
To that effect, we are gonna run a poll next to see what ones you want first. Vote for any that you like, but if you tie things inte...

As always, the <3 <3 <3 in the title denotes a spicy chapter. You can guess what happens based on the previous chapter's ending, and can skip this if you aren't feeling the spice.
Otherwise, enjoy!
The private bathing room was definitely the right call in this situation. We barely made it through the door before my girls were already doing everything but physically tearing the clothes off my body.

It only took two days for the ships to be ready, but they didn’t leave for four days. Runa had wanted to give Casey time to get used to living in the Roaring Mountain, since he hadn’t bothered to sleep in his quarters before meeting with her yet, but they had to get moving to reach the meeting point at a reasonable rate of travel rather than the ‘full-speed’ urgent that they’d used getting to the Roaring Mountain after the skirmish on the border.

Given Valda’s urging earlier to the others, it was unsurprising to find that the bathing rooms in the building reserved for the student-mages were full up when we got there. So the girls and I just scribbled a quick note on the message-slate attached to the door of our rooms before heading back out into the frontier town in search of one of the public bathhouses.
The noise of the fighting had died down by now, and looking towards the wall I saw that the fighting had apparently come to...

“Blair, enough!” Casey protested as the over-eager Gale Cat flailed about while trying to find her balance on his shoulders.
“You shouldn’t have teased her,” Vibeke snickered as she watched her spirit beast try to use Casey as a jungle-gym. Aiden was running around Casey’s ankles, yipping frantically as he either encouraged his fuzzy friend or tried to chastise her for doing something he couldn’t.
“I didn’t tease her!” Casey pro...

Hey all! So I recently sat down and worked out my schedule for the rest of the year for my Patreon preview chapters and I realized something as a result of my new writing schedule. I'm going to be a bit ahead of the ball around Christmas, to the point that you Patreons will likely be getting about 90% of the book on early release and be seeing teaser chapters for the better part of 2-3 months. Now, I have no problem with that, but I was curious about something:
Would you like things to rem...

Hey all! The timing on this one was hilarious to me, because it's exactly a week later that Audible decided to approve release info on Lost Bloodline 4's Audio.
And yes, because Audible is a bunch of prudes, they made Samira put on more clothes for the initial release cover. It'll swap over to the full one soon, but in the meantime, I've attached it here.
Enjoy!

We moved on the enemy camp decisively and without mercy. The fact that this one last battle lay between us and safety lent strength and determination to all of our fighters, even the wounded. The addition of the ancient weapons looted from a human-era ruin bolstered the confidence of even the weakest of our group to the point where there was not an ounce of fear in anyone’s hearts, only determination.
Valda made the decision of when to attack, explaining her reasoning to Rieka as she ...

The sheer ridiculousness of the situation would have sent Casey through a loop, but this wasn’t the strangest thing to happen to him yet.
Still, being led to a section of soft earth beneath a collection of four trees by a cougar the size of an elephant was strange enough of an experience that it at least registered on Casey’s ‘weird-meter,’ though when you added in the snide comments from Magnus it was hard to freak out.

The next several days were an education in the reality of war and both its noble and dark faces. I wished on a daily basis that there had been some way to spare my girls that experience, but they pushed through with admirable grit, and I made sure they knew how proud of them I was.
The fire continued to burn for over a day, sending a massive cloud of smoke high into the sky like a great sign pointing towards the excavation site that I’m sure the enemy had thought was secret. It was bo...

Traveling overland offered such vastly different views that Casey didn’t mind the extra effort that went into it. Sure, being able to see everything from far above was a wonderful and interesting perk of the flying longships, but between the distance and the wind, he missed out on a lot of the simple joys of travel.
Like what he was witnessing right now.

They retrieved an overstuffed Magnus from where the Gladewalker Elk was drinking from a bowl of vegetable soup at one of the tables. The fact that he had to lean over an unconscious drengr to do so and was getting that soup all over the sleeping man didn’t bother the Gladewalker at all, it seemed.
It turned out that all three of them had rooms in the east peak, with Einar being on the same row as Casey, and Vibeke only one row deeper into the mountain....

Einar and Vibeke went first, turning in the wooden plaques that they’d gotten for their kills during the trials.
Apparently, the Roaring Mountain worked with an internal system of points that they scored based on the work you did for the clan. Craftsfolk earned based on items they created, hunters on the quarry they brought in, and so on. One could exchange the points directly into coins, or trade it for goods and services. This not only allowed the cl...

Waking with a start, Casey sat bolt upright on his bedding. The cot he’d been sleeping on shifted under him and nearly dumped Casey off when he flailed.
Casey, what’s wrong? Maude asked in a hurry as he struggled to not end up on his ass.
Not responding at first, Casey took a moment to calm his racing heart. The dream, because now that he was awake again he could recognize it easily, had been both so real and so hazy at the sam...

Hello all and welcome to the pre-release chapters for Steelforged Legacy 4. The next book out is actually going to be Summoned by Monster Girls 2: Salvaging Shadows, but ya'll already have all those chapters in the rough format, so I'm just leaving them archived here for now and stepping past to Steelforged Legacy 4. (Which also means we'll progress a bit sooner past SFL4 to MGiS 7 too. Look forward to it!)

“You are serious?” Valda asked, horror and amusement warring in her voice.
I just nodded and gestured for her to stand back as I heaved on the heavy door, which swung open with a protesting squeal of hinges whose grease had long since dried up.
Glancing through the door into the darkness beyond, I paused for a moment before giving a shrug and mumbling.
“Well, it can't hurt to try it out since it worked elsewhere. Lights on!”
“What work—” Valda began to qu...

Okay! So this is the last teaser chapter for Lost Bloodline 4. Book releases on 9.23, which means these will all come down on 9.22 so make sure to give them a read before then! I hope you enjoyed the glance into Koda's world to whet the appetite! Look forward to learning more about the newest primal spirit we introduced here soon! (it's not a cliffhanger, because literally the next chapter would come out on release day!)

The last time that Koda had been amongst the people of the Silent Plains tribe, they’d been recovering from what amounted to a natural disaster. While they’d been happy to have his help in dealing with the threat, it had been enough to drive them from their homes for a time. That sort of experience left a mark on people. In the battle's aftermath, Koda had told Vysin to focus on the recovery and reconstruction efforts rather than a party for him.

Every other time that I’d gone into one of these human-era ruins, it had been a slow and careful exploration with my girls to uncover secrets or mysteries. We had tread carefully to avoid traps and preserve history, doing the minimum amount of damage that we could in order to preserve everything we left behind.
This mission was something entirely different and I couldn’t help but feel odd about that. Though I didn’t hesitate or regret what we had to do. It was to keep my girls saf...

After really stretching his legs the previous day, Koda knew the sort of sustained pace he could manage towing the sleigh with its load of people and goods. While the girls had covered for him previously, saying that he had stopped to spare them, he had let his pride drive him to push harder than he should have.
That didn’t make the sight of him anything less of a spectacle as he crossed the snow-clad hills of the high plains, though.

Up until this point, we’d done our best to keep the movements of our raiding unit as quiet and subtle as possible. Working from ambushes to minimizing magical usage. But now that our target was in front of us, Rieka had decided it was time to pull out the stops.
Two of the student-mages that had come with us were fire-focused spellcasters, and they worked along with the three wind mages to unleash a firestorm over the campsite that turned night into day and set fire to many of the ten...

As was commonly the result of making plans, fate liked to interfere with them. Less than a day after Koda decided to head out to the Silent Plains tribe, and a full three days before they departed, snow blew in from the high mountains.

Peering over the edge of the cliff, I studied the fairly solid camp that had been built in the entrance of the gully below.
While the buildings themselves were more of the simple hide and cloth tents that we’d seen on our way through the mountains, many of them had a rough foundation of piled stones around their edges, as if reinforcing the temporary buildings. Instead, the piled stones made them look even more ramshackle due to how crude the job was in ensuring the stones fit togethe...

“Honestly, it’s not a bad idea,” Kris said as she studied the glazed clay cup in her hands.
The older cat beastfolk looked a little silly with how heavily she was bundled up at the moment, despite being inside and in front of a good-sized fire in the hearth.
