I accept my death.
I accept the coming end demanded of me for the greater good of existence, so that the next coming may be free of our taint.
I accept the destruction of reality to wipe clean the sins of man.
I accept my duty and task to bear the fires of sin and perdition, to infuse my body and bones with the ve...
2024-06-15 18:13:32 +0000 UTC View PostIf you live long enough, there will come a time when the future thins, and the novelty of your experiences grows fewer and lesser by the day. As you develop your skill, you realize most never learn, and even the ones that do walk a path tattered from the treading, making mistakes you’ve seen another lifetime ago, making decisions you have lived before.
Rejoice wh...

For what worth is a man if his words were not? A life lost in the attempt of righteousness hurts less than a dream never sought.
There comes a moment where one must choose: wick or flame; to stand and deliver, or refus...

2024-06-10 10:37:48 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a pretty work-heavy month, and I have a few announcements to make.
Right now, I have a TTF chapter (90%) and Godclads chapter (40%) done. I have slowed down over the weekend to improve my workflow and improve the chapters you get.
As such, expect two chapters tomorrow as it is a holiday here, and maybe an additional Godclads chapter thereafter, bringing the total count bac...
2024-06-09 18:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostThere is no higher sin than love, there is no greater transgression than to want, there is no greater failure of humanity, of existence, than our inability to face things as they are.
No more.
I will see us make this mistake no more. Love will hurt me no more. May only awareness ache when I think of those I lost.

2024-06-06 18:48:32 +0000 UTC View PostPeople ended up calling this time the last days of the false peace, because that's what it was. A false peace. Sure, the Guilds weren't fighting, but those half-strands were bound to get into it sooner or later.
Even without us lighting the fuse, the High-Cuntus… well, she had her designs long before we did.
In the end, all I can say is ...

2024-06-04 06:54:21 +0000 UTC View PostArt is how you betray yourself to an enemy. Art is the fullest expression of who you are, of what you desire, of your expression released into the world.
You live. You are shaped. And you shape thereafter.
And in your wants and flaws, your greatest defeat will be shown.
As the forest grows, so does the flame.
As the flocks flourish, the wargs fatten.

2024-06-01 13:17:49 +0000 UTC View PostGood evening:
This is just a brief announcement going over a few things.
First is the release of book 2 of Godclads. As some of you might already know, the official release of book 2 has gone online. I hope you've all enjoyed the story so far, and know there's more to come. It's been pretty great writing it, and plenty of content remains left to get through.
As you might ha...
Someday, Samir. Someday, you will tell me, “No.” And when that day comes, I will know that you are finally well, and that will make me smile.

2024-05-30 05:48:16 +0000 UTC View PostThe content of a god’s character is molded from a common collective of beliefs. This is why many gods experience such drastic “personality” changes across the eras, and the reason behind their erratic behavior during certain moments in history.
Think of people: ugly, undisciplined, mostly stupid, highly predictable, and heavily shaped by our environments. Now...

2024-05-24 11:51:58 +0000 UTC View PostPower does not prepare one for rulership or control. This is something that one can observe in a god, but only truly learns firsthand.
To wit: consider how most understand power. Power, in the conception of the common person, is an expression of dominance. To control or inflict change on a level beyond another. Power looks like a giant stepping on an ant. Power loo...
