Interlude 9 – The Return of the Finja

If one were to look up into the skies near the Ebkai mountains, they would see an approaching skyship slowly sailing down into the docks. Around two weeks after its wreckage at the hands of a dragon, the Finja was returning back to the dock it called home. It was certainly interesting having to stayContinue reading “Interlude 9 – The Return of the Finja”

Chapter 35 – The Country of Light

Julius had a very…interesting time on the journey to Zemava. After his latest meeting with Claire, he just sort of…stared blankly off into the distance, watching the coast as their ship continued its voyage. He had a feeling that Douglas and Tisma knew why, but he refused to talk about it.  At the very least,Continue reading “Chapter 35 – The Country of Light”

Chapter 33 – The Lightning Temple

Maria had a damn good singing voice. Granted, Julius couldn’t exactly understand a word of what she was singing at the moment, but it did still sound really nice. The caster of their group, currently decked out in some golden, lightning-bolt emblazoned robes provided by the Torahikos, was standing right outside the huge round doorContinue reading “Chapter 33 – The Lightning Temple”

Interlude 8 – The Wandering Minotaur

His hands grasped tightly around the hoofed foot pinning him down, desperately trying to keep it from crushing his chest in, Julius could do little else but glare furiously at the enormous, four-armed and blood-red devil staring him down, a horrible grin full of sharp yellow fangs splitting the bottom half of her face. BlackContinue reading “Interlude 8 – The Wandering Minotaur”

Interlude 7 – On a Different Island

Sylsa let out a heavy sigh as she sat back down on the deck of the ship, watching the angel, Kokriel, fly off to her teachers’ rescue. Everyone else was moving, meanwhile. It was a constant flurry of anxious motion since the crew of the Finja had to fully deactivate the balloons attached to theContinue reading “Interlude 7 – On a Different Island”

Chapter 23 – Avoiding Politics

Julius was having a weird day. Granted, that wasn’t saying much given that every other day was weird for him. Really, weirdness was becoming normal to him.  Anyways. As he stood in the Rosvord Fort, Julius stayed silent as he stared at Rostel and what he assumed were two other leaders of Hulthemia’s major factions.Continue reading “Chapter 23 – Avoiding Politics”

Chapter 15 – A Night of Rest

While Julius would have preferred to finish the Wind Temple as soon as possible, what had happened earlier that day just completely took everything out of him. Thankfully, instead of having to go back to the Finja or find an inn, his group was actually allowed to stay in the castle. Even better, they wereContinue reading “Chapter 15 – A Night of Rest”

Interlude 2 – Meet the Hero

Julius always considered himself to be rather simple. He took things as they came and didn’t question them. Well, aside from now anyways.  “So remind me how a mage got chosen by a sword,” said the young blond fighter as he scratched his head.  “Well, it’s like it chose him for his spirit, I guess?”Continue reading “Interlude 2 – Meet the Hero”

Chapter 13 – The Northern Nation

Tramontava was a bright place and its capital, Stenistrata, was equally bright. And also huge. Probably four or five times the size of Orindaco. Though, maybe that wasn’t the right city to compare it to. Queenshill, the capital of Luceneva, was the closest city in terms of scale Julius could think of, but it wasn’tContinue reading “Chapter 13 – The Northern Nation”
