AN: The first part was SUPER uncomfortable for me to write, and even then I chickened out on how bad I could make it.
For those of you unfamiliar with the setting: Basically, ALL THE CONTENT WARNINGS. E88 are Nazis, with all that entails. We've got a good amount of body horror going on, etc.

AN: Song made it to rank 80! Just 30 more before you all get 5 bonus chapters!
People voted, people discussed, and after a lot of studying, checking, and what have you, I've decided to run 4 Song chapters - 1 Elaine chapter a week for now. When the current Elaine story ends, I'll adjust back to 5 Song chapters a week, unless or until I get more Elaine Ideas. We'll see how it goes!
I want to thank IFR, Supp Mr Mike, NightSky, Fala, Newbie, and Redenife for writing such wonderful re...

Maeve, bloodied but unbowed, was brought low by chalice and curse.
They forced potions down her throat -
Elixirs to twist will, to cloud the mind, to sow false warmth in a heart scorched with grief.
The witches say such brews can carve love from fear and pain,
And if not love, then at least devotion deep enough to look like it.
The Saga of Bjorn, Verse 26

Felix fumed on his way to the dining hall. Professor Mistv...

Edit: Sorry, content warning on the Bjorn Saga verse
Beneath black silk banners and a sky that did not dare storm,
Bjorn wed Maeve.
The ceremony was small - whispers only, no bells, no blessings.
Witnesses, few and hand-picked, spoke in hushed awe of how she gazed at him -
Eyes soft, voice sweet, as if all her world was narrowed to one man.
They did not see the potions.
They did not hear the chains.
The Saga of Bjorn, Verse 27

In the eyes of the Bloodline Magic, Bjorn was now kin.
He took the name Morsin without challenge -
Not from a court, nor from the grave.
And so the blood-runes burned with new purpose:
Bjorn, once thrall-born, now Regent,
Ruler in name and fate, until young Seamus would come of age.
But the child was small, and time was long.
The Saga of Bjorn, Verse 28
==============
Felix dragged his feet on his way to rituals. Ahead of him th...

Hey all!
Okay, the CJD chapter's reception has been WILD. I ran a quick flash poll on Discord, and people really, REALLY want more.
So I've come here to ask you all how MUCH more you want!
With 5 chapters a week, what ratio do you want?
I'm not going with the highest voted one, but the most average one. With that said, I suspect the poll will end up a bell curve, and it'll be the highest one anyway.
This week will be 5 Song either way.

AN: Hello all!
There's lots of requests for various epilogue chapters, but this particular story has been rattling around in my head HARD. I can't stop thinking about it!
In order to defeat the plot bunnies that plague me, I've got to write it!
The hook: Elaine's transported by fairies to another realm. Elaine does Elaine things, chaos ensues.
Or: Elaine in a world of superheros is roughly a tier or three above everyone else... but they can hit her from unique angle...

Though Dublin was locked like a tomb,
Smoke always escapes through cracks.
From cloister to court, rumors spread -
That the Morsin line had fallen,
That a bastard reaver now wore their name.

A fan went "hey, I do this sort of thing, this sounds super neat! Selkie, want me to do a mock up of the common rooms?" and I naturally said "SURE!"

AN: Patreon's exactly 10 chapters ahead of RR! I hope to widen the gap in the future. For now, we're dropping from 7 a week to 5 a week. It'll basically be what, almost 40 chapters in 40 days? Maybe 35 chapters in 35 days? Not quite sure on the math, either way, I'm pretty satisfied. I ran out of manic 'start of story' energy, although I'm still having a ton of fun.
I could use more ratings and reviews on RR. Seeing the kind words helps keep me going! 2025-11-17 13:00:14 +0000 UTC
