The rest of the day passed quickly, and at the end of the night I gave my last wish to one of the Beast Lord Initiates. I got three points of Might, bringing me to an even one hundred sixty. With that out of the way we set out to meet with the others to attend the auction. Lament was coming, along with her partner Falken, Sydney and Megan were bringing Riley and the rest of th...

Naturally, the second district didn't have any clues. We searched the whole place and found nothing specific. It was clear that the Devastator wasn't here in the first place, since there were people all over. To my surprise though, as we followed the path around behind the block to the third district, ...

On a scale of one to ten, I'd give the ghost rising up through the table a six on my 'what the fuck' meter. Which, honestly, isn't that bad. I've been to magic kingdoms and have a fairy living in part of my soul. I've seen some shit. Still, the effects and everything, while not ba...
2023-02-15 21:37:20 +0000 UTC View PostWe didn't hear back from Alexander until the next day. Since we had one more after this before the auction I let the Beast Lord Initiates do another full five wishes to preload some more days for later. I'd have to work out some kind of arrangement for after I left. I managed to get the points in Might this time, which was nice, and put me at nine hundred nineteen ...

In the end, I decided the best way to find clues about the Devastator and Luxord was to explore the town. Since that was probably going to take a while, I decided to bring Rana along. I figured we hadn't spent much time together since this trip started, and I wanted to see how she'd been doing. She was...

"This is boring." I said, barely bothering to keep my voice down.

When I got back to the old house, I pulled my girls and the others aside for a chat, filling them in on what happened. "Time manipulation is a pain.

I've never been one to worry or fret about things. I'm not entirely certain I actually feel fear the way other people do, or at least I've never experienced anything like what I've heard described as terror. I've been nervous, been worried, I've known something could hurt me, but ...

Whatever the fuck the Devastator was, I knew I absolutely did not want any part of fucking with it.

The room full of frozen infected was...quiet. Which seemed obvious even as I thought it.

On the list of things you never want to see associated with an enemy, a five sided shield is basically at the top.
