Many have debated the exact meaning of the name attached to Yolesh the Ever Dying. Is the Ancient some form of undead? Is it a boast to state how Yolesh cannot truly die? Does it have another meaning altogether?

Amongst the worshippers of Yolesh, there is no consensus, but there are a few prevalent views, the most common among them being that the aura of undeath that surround...

B5 Chapter 55 - To Be Bait

“I don’t think you understand how dangerous this is.”

Tyron grunted, not bothering to give Dove any more of his attention than he absolutely had to. This obviously drove the skeleton to be as annoying as possible.

“Hey. Are you listening to me?” he demanded. “If you get caught wandering around out here with your dick in your hand, you will spend the next thousand ...

B5 Chapter 54 - Advance or Die

There were two new options for Tyron to select from and he examined them carefully. Every advancement he made in his main Class was a treasure to be treated with care, since progressing and gaining levels was such a difficult process. Truth be told, he was shocked that he’d managed to gain two levels since coming to the Realm of the Dead. The creatures who lived here were dangerous and...

B5 Chapter 53 - Dead Progress

Visions swam through Tyron’s mind, a dizzying kaleidoscope of images and impressions that seemed to stab deep into his brain, leaving behind tiny shards of knowledge he couldn’t interpret. He saw magick, folding and twisting, meshing and weaving with creatures who lived and died. He saw the transition from life to death, and the reverse. He saw rebirth, he saw annihilation and he saw...

Merigold had never imagined that she would ever be the target of an assassination attempt.

She’d been lucky to study at the Twin Goddess Academy on a scholarship and her grades had earned her a minor position within the bureaucracy. T...

B5 Chapter 51 - Secrets of the Realm

Days later, Tyron staggered out of bed, his head a confused jumble of formulae, sigils and conduits. The food he’d brought with him to the other side had quickly become corrupted by the abundant death magick in the realm, causing it to lose almost all of its nutritional value. An oversight he now regretted. Even so, he munched on some blackened carrots and slimy, spotted potatoes, trus...

The Soul Eater was heavily mangled, but even so, Tyron was able to piece together just what it had looked like in undeath, and it was a disturbing picture indeed.

What’s more, he had no idea how to extract the souls from its gut, so he did...
