Beyond life and death, in a realm where wonder abounds and lost souls often wander, exists an ephemeral yet eternal sanctuary. This realm, accessible to all yet rarely held in memory, resides not beyond the veil but intricately within its fabric. Here, one can retrace long-forgotten memories or weave new tales as fanciful and...

Once again, I found myself being hauled around in a bowl—well, more of a large bucket now. Sure, I can crawl by myself, but as it turns out, Black Puddings aren’t exactly speed demons without the ability to morph legs. Heck, I’d even settle for spider legs at this point, but all I can do is sprout a few tendrils and dra...

Here's a compilation of the AI-generated MidJourney art I've been using. I plan to post several pieces and organize them under the Collections tab for easy access. Ideally, I'd group them all in one post, but with the volume I'm adding, Patreon is getting a bit finicky. So, I'll split them across multiple pos...

The desert stretched on, vast, and unyielding, far from the comfort of any oasis. In this desolate expanse, the air began to twist and warp. This was no ordinary illusion of heat or a common mirage. What unfolded before the barren landscape was the emergence of a portal, a shimmering gateway distorting reality itself.

Hi’ya,
Here's a quick update for you all. With the holiday season in full swing, my schedule is becoming increasingly chaotic. Despite this, I remain dedicated to delivering two chapters weekly, each about four thousand words or more, though the release days might vary. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. ...

This was one of those wildly confusing moments.
On one hand, I was relishing a delectable feast, dissolving—or rather, disintegrating—a winged lizard. They call them a dragonkin, I think, and it's surprisingly tasty, if I do say so myself. On the other hand, there's this elf, Vanya, she was the one who offed that go...

Hey everyone,
I've got a bit of an update for you. I wasn't totally happy with how the last chapter turned out, so I've decided to spend an extra day or two polishing the next one to make sure it's just right. This might mess with my usual—or unusual—schedule a bit, but as long as I can put out two chapters, each ar...

Vanya Anlyth, Champion of Jörmun, pushed open the door to a tavern now overrun by Slaethian forces. Inside, a raucous symphony of laughter and drunken debauchery filled the air, a cacophony born from another conquest. The jubilant atmosphere was shared by all except the tavern owner, a stout man with a blend o...

My head—scratch that, I’m currently lacking one. Umm... consciousnesses? Yeah, that works! My consciousnesses swirled with confusion as I woke to find myself sprawled on a stony surface, oozing out like an impromptu Rorschach test in black tar.
Too silly?
Just a tad, Dream.
Hello everyone,
I wanted to give you a heads-up that the next chapter is slightly delayed but fear not—I'm on track to release two new chapters by the end of this week—or weekend. Apologies for making you wait a little longer than usual.
On a separate note, Chapter 12, which I uploaded last Friday, hasn't had ...

Dear Patrons,
I hope this message finds you well. My journey with writing has been progressing positively—or at least, that's what I like to think. However, your opinions are the ones that truly count, and I'm eager to hear your thoughts. Despite a few hiccups, the latest round of edits on Book 1 is coming along nicel...

The insidious urge to snuff out their pitiful existences flickered in my mind—tempting but not quite irresistible. I had no wish to be ensnared in another tortuous cycle.

Ever since his wedding to Lady—or Princess, depending on the addresser—Aurelia eighteen months prior, Duke Lysander’s nights had devolved into a relentless torment. The conditions of his dukedom dictated a shared chamber with his bride, yet she remained a wife in title alone; their marriage had not been consummated. He ...
