“-AND UNHAND ME AT ONCE-!” Vocula was a very shouty man. Very loud and unpleasant, or so Charlotte thought to herself as she carried him from the building. It was a shame she had to deal with him, but not too much of one. Politics were not her speciality, after all. “Down you go,” sheContinue reading “Interlude 22 – What Just Happened?”

Chapter 55 – The Things We Do For Love
Julius was up and out of his seat the instant he saw the knight raise her burning hand. There was just something far too familiar in the red glow that was quickly becoming a white-hot flame, something that made him instinctively know that he needed to move now. Charlotte was out of the room, DougContinue reading “Chapter 55 – The Things We Do For Love”
Chapter 54 – A Peaceful Conference
Claire was having a fun day. She had a delightful date with her fiancé, she managed to meet a number of rather interesting people, and she taunted an idiotic angel right to her stupid stone face. And now, politics! Ah, how she loved politics~. Genuinely too! There was just something pleasant about making decisions thatContinue reading “Chapter 54 – A Peaceful Conference”
Interlude 21 – Family is Weird
“My thanks to you for listening to my piece, Aunty Sova,” Maria Loren intoned in the politest tone she thought she could handle, bowing to her sorta-aunt/not-really-stepmom with her arms in her robes, like one was supposed to do with this type of thingy. Sorta. A public plaza wasn’t exactly the most politest of places,Continue reading “Interlude 21 – Family is Weird”
Chapter 53 – Arrivals
As long as Julius knew her–so literally his entire life–Graves has always had a wide variety of hobbies. Fencing, fishing, dancing, knife-throwing, drinking contests, and so on. And apparently her new hobby–or at least one she was returning to–included wrestling. At least, that’s what Julius assumed after he was pulled out of the water withContinue reading “Chapter 53 – Arrivals”
Chapter 52 – Meetings and Reunions
Shioneri had some nice food. It was to be expected, since it was a resort island, but it was a nice thing to note. Lots of good mutton and fish, plus this “rice salad” stuff was pretty good. Even the group he came with seemed to enjoy the large meal, though Ariel did say Claire’sContinue reading “Chapter 52 – Meetings and Reunions”
Interlude 20 – The Tundra’s Fist
Julius and Ellen did their best to move quickly but quietly as they traveled through the forests of Naloriva. After what…happened, the party found themselves in need of some money. Blake was the one with the funds and he…So, even with what Tisma had on her, and what they’d barely managed to scrape out ofContinue reading “Interlude 20 – The Tundra’s Fist”
Chapter 51 – Shioneri Island
So Julius was feeling weird. Not really nostalgic, not really anxious, just…weird. It was weird. Being on the boat to Shioneri Island felt weird. Not the boat ride itself, but the location they were heading to. It was the place his group, his “team of heroes”, landed at right before they entered the Dark Lands,Continue reading “Chapter 51 – Shioneri Island”
Interlude 19 – Father and Daughter
Cyrus hummed “The Lover and the Dreamer” under his breath as he walked through the halls of Castle Valondrac; the song felt fitting, in many ways, dedicated as it was to the idea of two divine beings from separate tribes coming together in passion and romance. Granted, said romance ended quite terribly so it hopefullyContinue reading “Interlude 19 – Father and Daughter”
Interlude 18 – A Douglas Plan
“Hmm…sho, th’ fhck’s ’ll th’s?” Gali asked as she munched on a cactus pear. Doug smiled right back, his mouth closed to avoid showing his teeth. Culturally sensitive there, real nice of him. Or he just didn’t wanna challenge her. Either or. “Letters, mostly, Lord Galinori.” “Hm.” She crouched down beside him and glanced overContinue reading “Interlude 18 – A Douglas Plan”
