The woman playing her lute at the queen’s funeral wove the most entrancing, heart-wrenching music Snow had ever had the misfortune of hearing. Even through her grief, she couldn’t help but shoot glances toward the lutenist. The performer wore a solemn expression, the entirety of her attention on ensuring there wasn’t a ...

“What.” Rose spoke for both of the twins as they stared at the solo celebration. Somehow, he heard the dry, shocked statement and turned to face them, immediately shifting into a courtly bow.

Snow turned away from the window, smiling brightly at her...

2025-06-18 15:52:23 +0000 UTC View Post“I'm starting with stabilizers, which even someone with a Novice-rank forging skill is able to make.” Joe grasped at the air, his aspect hammer manifesting in his hand as he settled in next to the anvil. “Since I'm going to be creating an Expert-ranked ritual, and I don't actually have the required skill level to do so,...

“I'll claim the land, setting this as the center of my territory. To help you guys get back on your feet, I’ll put together some rituals that’ll make life easier for a while, as well as raise a few buildings, while I'm at it. You'll have all rights necessary to cultivate the area, exploit the natural resources, and have...
2025-06-16 11:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post“Please, take a seat.” The Duelist had a smug smile on his face as he waved at a couch with plush, golden, overstuffed cushions. “Most comfortable place on the frontier, guaranteed.”
Joe stared at the couch, taking a long, deep breath as he shook his head. “You think I don't know why you want me to sit h...
2025-06-13 11:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostThe black smudge in the sky quickly grew to a towering cloud filling Joe's view of the horizon as he and his coven rushed across the untamed landscape.
As they got closer, Joe's aura started to clear out the noxious fumes in a sphere around him, but the sheer density of the smoke made it impossible for him to diss...
2025-06-11 11:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostThree days later, Joe stared hungrily at the slowly roasting meat he was twirling over the campfire. “Looks like it's just about done…”
Grabbing the stick, he began to pull it off the heat, only for it to instantly blacken and crumble into charcoal. Caught somewhere between hunger and betrayal, the Ritualist threw...
2025-06-09 11:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post“I can see why you were nervous about some of these, Tatum.” Joe murmured as he finished reading over the dense information. “I think it's easier to count how many skills didn't change. Two? Maybe three? Also, what's up with Mental Manipulation Resistance? That skill is clearly out to get me, and if

2025-06-04 12:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostTatum waved his hand dramatically, a soft shimmer of lavender light warping the space his fingers passed, symbols and glyphs unfolding like a lotus blossom blooming, forming into perfectly shaped letters which hung in the air. As he read over the densely packed words, the deity spoke with his normal smooth rhythm. “Busy, bu...
2025-06-04 11:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostJoe had fully intended to get Boris settled then vanish into the wilds around the town for a few weeks while they geared up for the upgrade. But the moment his feet touched the bottom step of the stairs into the secret chambers, he realized they weren't alone down there. Though the air was filled with a thin cloud of incense,...
2025-06-02 11:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostThere was a long, awkward silence following Joe's statement as each of the people in the room thought through their options. Then, seemingly all at once, the council chamber erupted into horrified murmuring. Joe's eyes twitched slightly at the lack of patriotic fervor, concern for the residents, or the potential for destructi...
2025-05-30 11:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostNearly a full day passed before Joe finally spotted a sign they were nearing the guild’s town. It wasn’t marked by roads or banners, just a subtle shift in the forest.
The ancient trees with their thick underbrush and shadow-drenched canopy gave way to a younger grove, one clearly shaped by human hands. The trunks s...
2025-05-28 11:00:08 +0000 UTC View Post“Seriously, just focus on walking as quickly as you’re able to do.” Joe murmured in what he hoped was a reassuring tone as Boris flinched away from yet another soft rustle in the underbrush. “I feel like after that absolute bloodbath of rabbits, you'd feel safer around me.”
“Was that supposed to be ...
2025-05-26 11:00:08 +0000 UTC View Post“Let's get going. If you hop on my back I can get us there in… let's say an hour and a half?” Joe gestured for Boris to hop on, only for the Scholar to scoff disdainfully and slowly shake his head. “No? I suppose we could use the fast travel option at Tatum’s shrine.”
“You are joking, yes?” Bori...
2025-05-23 11:00:13 +0000 UTC View Post“Woo!” A guard recruit dressed in clearly non-regulation gear called over. “Baldy almost got tapped, know what I’m sayin’?”
“I literally don’t. Somehow I left, and the lingo went feral.” Joe tiredly rubbed at his eyes.
“Ya know… tapped.” The guard looked at him askance, as though t...
2025-05-21 11:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostJoe padded along the stone streets of Ardania, the soft soles of his shoes making no noise as he pushed through the still-leery crowd. After leaving the palace, nothing was going to stop him from moving directly toward the merchant district, no matter how many sidelong glances and aghast stares he received. Thankfully, as a s...
2025-05-19 11:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostJogging along the primitive road fast enough that each step kicked up a small cloud of dust, Joe grit his teeth as he tried to take deep, even breaths. The midday sun was glinting off his shiny head, scintillating slightly as it refracted off his Exquisite Shell—the magical protection itself far weaker than it normally was,...
2025-05-16 11:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post“I found it, but it's…” Joe looked up from where he’d settled in to wait, blinking rapidly as he pulled himself out of the depths of studying the Ritual Combat Manual. Master Darling was walking toward him with an enormous tome, a pensive expression writ large on her face. “It's even more difficult than I remembered...
2025-05-14 13:57:52 +0000 UTC View Post“You're saying you want to join the math club?” Master Cosmo Hollows excitedly gripped Joe's hand and began pumping it up and down. “We'd love to have you! We meet every Tuesday and Thursday from-”
“I was more hoping-” Joe had to put effort into freeing his hand from the Wolfman’s good-natured excite...
2025-05-12 11:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostA green flash later, Joe found himself once more in the Grandmaster’s office, though somehow Pete had already gathered the necessary items and piled them up.
The elderly man walked to the other side of his desk and put his hands flat on its surface as he stared up at his tower’s new member with great concern. ...
2025-05-09 11:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post“Must you drag this out, Istvan? If you truly had an angle, you’d already be gloating about it. This sly tone you’ve taken is unlike you.” Pete strolled out of the apparently tenuous safety of the secured courtyard, casually walking an arm’s length from the group from the Tower of Blood Rights before stopping and ta...
2025-05-07 11:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostPete, much to Joe's surprise, didn't wave his guest over to stand near him. Instead, he got up and walked around his own desk, moving until he stood just to the left of and behind the as-of-yet unnamed man. The bald Ritualist watched this interaction, recognizing the show of respect for what it was.
“This is Sage<...
2025-05-05 11:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostAfter adjusting the collar of his new clothing, Joe pulled on his new gloves and slipped his feet into the well-designed slippers. Immediately, he felt a sense of rightness and let out a sigh of relief. A small notification popped up, grabbing his attention and causing his lips to form into a small ‘o’ of surpris...
2025-05-02 11:00:08 +0000 UTC View Post“While we’re waiting for the Grandmaster, why not let me take a peek at your ability with Magical Matrices?” one of the Master Ritualists excitedly interjected before anyone else had the opportunity to speak. “I'm Master Cosmo Hollows, founder of our math club!”
Joe's gaze dropped to the exuberant Wolfman's hi...
2025-04-30 11:00:59 +0000 UTC View PostJoe walked through the streets, carefully following Mak’s written instructions each time he came to an intersection. He was trying to channel Heartpiercer’s confidence as he walked alone through the streets of the world-spanning city, but his mind was churning with the concerns the cheese merchant had brought up. 2025-04-28 11:00:21 +0000 UTC View Post
