Henlo my dudes! Yep, that's Pinot in a can! It's meh, but boy is it helping with my screaming hip. Hours on a flight, 4+ hours waiting for the next one, my hip is like "WHY YOU DO?!" T_T the woes of physical damage.
Did you see that chapter heading in the pic? Yep... It's coming along. Abou...
2022-06-02 22:57:25 +0000 UTC View PostIt was dark when they arrived in Desedra. The train hissed to a stop and Rhen had to reign in his nervous energy. He wanted to leap to his feet and run to the communications center but had to restrain himself.
“Shall we stay at the Silver Mark?” Rhen asked. It was a choice pick, close to the downtown center where Ar...
2022-06-01 15:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostThey got into Yu in record time, poor Arannet flustered and a little wet. Rhen promised that taking the boat back up would be a lot easier than walking, though Arannet wasn’t opposed to with her new boots.
The train had arrived, and Rhen knew it would only stick around for ten minutes to offload and load before gettin...

Henlo my dudes! WAAAAHHHHH!!!! I love this so much! Aki, Rhen's main dude! We took a few liberties with adding the armor, thought it looked cooler.
What do you guys think?
2022-05-27 18:08:59 +0000 UTC View PostArannet pulled another sheet in front of him. “This one is talking about the proper use of materials for any structures used to gain access to the nexus node. This one is going to be important for you, because nexus nodes can’t be shifted around like other dungeon nodes without a risk of losing the connection to the other...
2022-05-27 15:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! As usual, I've got some water here with me as I walk very slowly on my treadmill. It's been a crazy crazy week... let's jump into it!
Book 1 is hitting editing soon and book 2 is releasing here M-W-F! What do you guys think of it so far? Too slow? I got some feedback on Roya...
2022-05-26 18:24:19 +0000 UTC View PostRhen booked it a full speed, triggering swift twitch and surging his legs with anima. The yeti monster roared in defiance, clawing after them. Aki lifted a bubble of water from the river and tossed it over Rhen’s shoulder. It landed with a wet splat against the monster, but it’s thundering strides never stopped.

2022-05-25 15:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostA wet splash on Rhen’s face jerked him awake.
Aki stood over his bed, glowing his happy yellow-pink color. “Good morning.”
Rhen groaned and sat up. “Less so now that my face is wet.”
“Well, it is a good morning for me, so I will still say it.”
“Hand me my pants, would you?” Rhen asked...
2022-05-23 15:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostWithin thirty minutes, everyone had respawned, cleaned off, and dressed. They came back to the inn where Patti and Rhen served the hungry respawners old stew. While Rhen and Patti regaled them with tales of the battle, and the new realm, Arannet sat quietly in the corner, smiling ever so often.
Maybe she wasn’t so bad...
2022-05-20 15:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! I just woke up from a serious nap... did not sleep well last night but feeling pumped and ready to do it now! I've got some icy splish splash to accompany me on this journey, but I might get a zevia root beer soon >_>

2022-05-19 23:07:50 +0000 UTC View PostArannet clutched her hands at her chest. Rhen could just see the thoughts of “Oh no, where am I going to sleep?” running behind her eyes. Finally, she looked at him.
“What happened?”
Rhen tried to pout but he just couldn’t hold it anymore and snorted a laugh instead.
“What’s so funny?” she as...

2022-05-16 15:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! I'm currently drinking a Ginger Ale Zevia... mmmm.... zero calorie soda. This one is meh, the root beer one is pretty good, but also clear, which is confusing to me. Would not make a float with it >_>

2022-05-13 01:06:28 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! I decided to drop the final chapter of DD early so we can get on with some more chapters!
I'm working hard on DD2 right now, but I'm sorry to say I'm not as ahead as I'd want to be to start posting chapters... SO!! There's two options for you...
I can start posting Prison World: Earth chapters (the...
2022-05-10 18:11:39 +0000 UTC View PostRhen gave a gurgling gasp and spit up water. Right, Amphibian Lung. He activated the spell to swap back to atmospheric breathing, sputtering all the while.
Water rushed behind him and lapped over his feet. The sand beneath him was warm and soft. There was a gentle breeze that licked the warmth from his skin. Chirping bi...
2022-05-10 18:05:35 +0000 UTC View PostJoseph’s tentacles slipped off the monster’s tail as it grew too large to be held. Eli zipped out from the darkness and smashed into the monster’s underbelly, his thorny head piercing through the armor and cracking it.
A purple syntial glowed on gigafish’s neck and it roared. The shockwave smashed the raid party...
2022-05-10 14:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostLeslie and Ghwan moved about the gathered bruisers, securing their colorful feathered armor into place and giving instructions.
Jakira looked incredible.
Mulit-colored reds, blues, greens, oranges, and yellows cascaded across her dark body in a rainbow. Everything was form fitting, with no need for gaps a...
2022-05-09 15:34:30 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! Due to the prodding of a lovely patron, I've started a public discord server. You can check your benefits to get on in there!
Later taters!

2022-05-09 04:54:29 +0000 UTC View PostA week later, everyone had gone through the aquatic chamber with their new aqua-syntials, practicing their abilities on the smaller fish. There were only twelve days left, but Rhen was feeling confident the small raid of thirteen could make it happen. Everyone had agreed to get Cephaloshifter—because who wouldn’t...
2022-05-07 15:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostRhen held two of the fish cores in his hand and stared at the mastery node, unsure what to ask for. He didn’t think Aki would be able to maintain every air bubble for everyone in the raid party, so perhaps long-breath or water-breathing would be good choices. What other abilities that would work well under water?

2022-05-06 15:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes. Today I'm drinking theraflu.... No fever, no COVID, but I've got something nasty going on. Trying to take it easy, but wanted to update you before I passed out and forgot.
Starting to work with an artist on this. Excited for the cover concept on this one ^_^

2022-05-05 17:38:29 +0000 UTC View PostThere had been just enough anima left for Rhen to craft a passageway down to the shore of the aquatic chamber, and while it hurt to use it all up, he didn’t want to waste anymore time searching for a way in. With that done, he put a team together to go hunt some fish.
Aki was essential. It was going to be his responsi...
2022-05-05 16:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostRhen was quiet on the way back, thinking through his speech. He had a lot to apologize for, but apologies wouldn’t win them over—a plan would. He had that, but how to present it… especially when it relied heavily on Wyland’s machines?
Maybe he should let his actions do the talking, first? No, that would be weird...
2022-05-04 15:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostRhen walked through the soaking wreckage of his village. The inn’s foundation was all that remained, just charred and cracked stone barely holding together. He crouched at the place where his tent once was and grabbed a handful of mushy ashes.
“What happened?” Jakira clutched the towel around her shoulders as if i...
2022-05-03 17:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostRhen stood at one of the six transference rods imbedded in the ground around the node. The other five candidates, Olliat, Barrek and both of his woodworker friends, and a very reluctant Joseph stood holding the other rods. Eli, his mother Valine, Bort, Barrek’s wife stood guard around them to make sure no terrocken’s deci...
2022-05-02 15:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostAll mining operations had stopped, and round-the-clock shifts had been posted at the resurrection node. Everyone saved an anima profile, and Rhen adjusted the setting so that they could afford to resurrect everyone if they died. It resulted in the speed of Jakira and Aki’s resurrection being affected—which Rhen could actu...
2022-04-30 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostPain lanced through Rhen’s shoulder, and he was hauled into the air. Rhen pulled his crescent blade from its holster and slashed at anything he could above his head. There was a monstrous hiss and the claw’s grip slipped. Rhen’s flesh ripped and he dropped back to the forest floor.
Rhen rolled onto his back, both ...
2022-04-29 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostHenlo my dudes! I've got that clear splishy-splashy today for a drink but I'm thinking about cracking a cold one... my brain is mush.
Book 1 is done! You'll be wrapping up chapters in the next few weeks, unless you want me to accelerate their release.
Book 2 has an outline that's wait...
2022-04-28 23:56:35 +0000 UTC View PostRhen used tremor blast below the terrocken junior’s feet, tripping it up. The monster’s feet sunk into the earth. It wobbled to the side as it tried to free itself, then collapsed. Jakira was on it in a second, bashing the side of its skull in. Her club flared green, leeching some of the life-sustaining anima out of the m...
2022-04-27 16:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostRhen dozed in and out, the train home rocking him to sleep after a night of hard work. He clutched the inflammatory leaflet he’d gotten from the Delver’s Guild on the Zephitz dungeon.
“Young. Inexperienced. Foolhardy. Don’t delve with Zephitz,” read the title of the pamphlet. Welsh must’ve spent at ...
