ARENA has been added to the land of Sandstorm.
The blue rectangle emerged in front of Dallion.
SANDSTORM has acquired 16734 inhabitants.
SANDSTORM can be improved to Level 5.
The massive arena popped up in the center of the settlement. The number of inhabitants was impressive, even if the...

A group of fifteen people had gathered in front of the Gremlin’s Timepiece, waiting patiently for Dallion to go outside. All of them could be defined as mid-level; all of them had multiple disfocus rings on. Along with the other artifacts they were wearing, this group was enough to...

What the innkeeper couldn’t avoid, she dispersed with one strike in the direction, additionally causing the spectral shardfly to go on the defensive. That was only part of Dallion’s plan, though.

There was no need for her to do so. In fact, there was no need for her to do anything. Her assistance in taking down the general had been noted by both the lord mayor and the Order of the Seven Moons, which had generously provided her with enough gold to live but a house on the edge of the city’s noble dist...
2024-01-05 03:00:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe more things changed, the more they remained the same. Dallion had seen dozens of different faces of Nerosal. The city had dazzled it with its size, showing him a world in which thousands of awakened lived among the non-awakened. It had been in this place that he had learned of awakened professions, guilts, and other organizations. Here, he had found knowledge, friends, love, but also pain a...

“Well done, Count Elazni.” The overseer greeted him. “The emperor will see you now.”
“I’m grateful.” Rather convenient that he c...

Defeat the guardians and change the land’s destiny.
Guardians? From what Dallion knew a normal item could only have one guardian. This wasn’t a sphere guardian by any means, and yet there could be no mistake—rectangles never lied.
The reality that had formed around Dallion was an endless land of ru...

He had taken a moment to explore the item’s realm, but found it to be completely empty. There was no guardian, no creatures, and no hints; just a plain square room that had its destiny fulfilled. The seal was no different, other than it probably had enough material to create two gold coins.
The only time he’d heard ...
2023-12-30 01:15:17 +0000 UTC View PostIt was arguable whether moving the settlement was faster than flying, but it turned out preferable. As Dallion directed his bubble of reality through the wilderness—and the thin layer of control that stemmed from the imperial capital—he sensed several new water golems laying in wait. Smaller than the one he’d faced, they acted like underground streams, only a small part of them peeking ov...
2023-12-28 22:49:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe poison plague and the war had changed everything in the world. Nobles had died off, replaced by others, cities had shifted allegiances, most countries had melted away, either destroyed or merged with one of the three world powers. Yet, a few spots in the world had gone through a lot less. Canopa village couldn’t be said to me of one of those places, but its changes had a more recent cause...

Gleam, on the other hand, was as merciless as always.
“Is that it?” she almost scuffed as she fluttered above the settlement in her fully sized majesti...
2023-12-21 00:56:30 +0000 UTC View PostFields of grass extended as far as the eye could see. Hills poked out here and there like pimples on a teenager.
So empty, Dallion thought.
Turning in the direction of the sun, he could see a sea in the far distance. There wasn’t a single whiff of salt in the air.
“That’s how domains usually start out,” Vihrogon emerged in his dryad form. “A blank canvas for...

To this day, Dallion knew quite little about the Moons. His interactions had made him know some of their personalities a bit. The copy...

A few brief goodbyes were said, including by a slightly embarrassed Diroh. The fury wasn’t fully clear what had happened. From her perspective, it seemed like she’d go on a flight, as she often did, and ended up falling asleep at a random ...
2023-12-14 17:19:41 +0000 UTC View PostGoing back to his room was always a bittersweet experience. Technically, Dallion didn’t need to stay there. He tended to sleep in his realm or in the wilderness. At one point, he used it to have private conversations with one person or another, but that, too, had ended. Thanks to the duchess, his communication with Eury remained through magic letters, and other than Diroh there wasn’t anyon...
2023-12-12 15:06:39 +0000 UTC View PostThere was a stark difference in the emperor’s garden. All the green plants had vanished, replaced by shades of crimson red. Normally, Dallion wouldn’t put any stock in it, but given that the emperor had called for him so suddenly, it was naïve to think this wasn’t meant to intimidate him.
The path, too, had transformed. No longer the straight line of tiles, it zigzagged in delibera...
2023-12-10 16:35:48 +0000 UTC View PostThe lake turned platinum the moment Dallion touched it with the tip of his harpsisword. Ripples formed, spreading along the surface in perfect circles.
Looking at it for a few moments longer, Dallion bent down and put his hand in. Instantly, the surface hardened in an attempt to trap his hand. Thanks to his reaction trait, Dallion easily pulled his hand out before that could happen.
Griffin remains filled the chamber. In a past era, this had been the treasure vault of a throne room, now fallen to neglect. Traps and protective spells had kept it from being looted for centuries, though after millennia those had faded and rusted away, allowing for creatures from the wilderness to make it their home. Later, still the creatures had been killed off by hunters, though not all val...

The albino shook his head.
“You shatter half the arena and still repair that?” He went to the general’s desk and slid a finger along it. “No echoes,” he noted. “Didn’t see that coming. Although he was just a greedy snob, we had to keep an eye on.”

Back when he had gathered them in the hold created by the magic vortex, Dallion had taken the time to cast a spell within the structure of each. Some of the spells were more powerful than others, set to be cast once the item was broken. Dallion had made sure to use items that had no guardians, just as he had used the grafting method...
