“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”

Cardinal Gabriel was annoyed. Admittedly, that state of being was becoming an irritatingly common one for them, yet the longer they remained in Luceneva, the more irritated the angel became.  Yet, simultaneously, they had somehow not reached the point of outright rage. Indeed, it seemed as though they had at some point changed courses onContinue reading “Interlude 17 – Cardinal Virtues”

Caius Vocula was having a very bad week. At least, he was fairly certain it had just been a week. He wasn’t entirely sure, but he was somewhat worried it had been far longer and he simply didn’t know, in large part because the damned lunatics holding him hostage had been keeping him in andContinue reading “Interlude 16 – Important Negotiations”

Stretching her stiff limbs as she woke up from her nap, Seona let out a little yawn, set her head back on her shoulders, then got up from the deck and walked off the boat she had ridden up the river. The Goldbed River, she was pretty sure it was called. Something like that? TheContinue reading “Interlude 15 – Upriver”

KnownContinue reading “Interlude 14 – A Royal Meeting 2 (Aquatic Boogaloo)”

Tisma Vlahos was having an interesting month. A simple job to investigate a dragon starting shit near the Gorokivan coast turned into her meeting up with two of her best friends in the world and getting directly involved in the new “Stop the Demon Lord” quest.  Now, that was unexpected, but not too bad. JobsContinue reading “Interlude 13 – A Royal Meeting”

Setting his pack down, Julius stretched his arms over his head. He knew the journey across the Light Lands to train would be tiring, but he also didn’t expect it to be boring. Since they had to make sure Blake didn’t spend all the funds they were given for the trip, it was decided they’dContinue reading “Interlude 12 – The Flirty Bard”

If there was one word that could describe Claire Valondrac at the current moment, it would be exasperated. Half her life she spent building up her forces and plotting to creating an endless army to fight and finally win against the Light Lands. And then the Lightning Core broke.  Not immediately, fortunately. She was stillContinue reading “Interlude 11 – Valondrac”

All elves, no matter the kind, had very long memories, and Caius Cornelius Veritas Vocula was no exception. Perhaps that was why he formed grudges so easily? Every miniscule slight and conflict stood stark in his mind, and he utterly despised all forms of disrespect.  Fortunately for him, his long life as an adherent toContinue reading “Interlude 10 – The Light God’s Voice”
