A Few Minutes Prior to Eslan’s Awakening

“Right, so here’s my plan.” I began with haste, knowing well Eslan was just minutes away from really waking up now. “I’m going to ease him into things, then on my command,...
2024-02-06 17:22:18 +0000 UTC View PostWe returned to what was for all intents and purposes, the closest thing to a portal to earth, reentering the blackout tent in tentative silence.
The entire space was quieter, more relaxed, as the burden of balancing belief from disbelief was removed from my shoulders, replaced now with only a giddy desire to show what was already accepted as fact by the sole patron of this cinematic exper...

2024-02-03 20:29:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! There’s quite a few revisions in this one! Mostly in Thalmin’s section of the story, as I wanted to reframe it in a way that I think better conveys both Ilunor and Thalmin’s characterization and how both of them are taking Emma’s revelations thus far. Basically, I wanted Ilunor to be more of a reactive character in that section of the story, with Thalmin more or le...

I hope everyone’s month is going great so far, and your new year is going awesome as well! :D Well, it’s that time again! And I’d like to take this opportunity to sit down for another talk with you guys!

I was broken.
Twisted, mangled, and defective.
I was broken.
Lacking direction, lacking sense, lacking in the skills I needed to make it through.
I was broken, in more ways than one could feasibly count.
I was broken, and yet, I persevered. All in an effort to pursue a shadowy vision of a purpose deeply ingrained within my very...
2024-01-30 16:11:43 +0000 UTC View Post“I hate Earthrealm.” The Vunerian repeated once more, this time louder, and with greater conviction.
Those words resonated at odds with the calm, and otherwise uncompromising serenity of the projection around us. In a sense, falling flat against the completely unassuming atmosphere, consisting primarily of the clear and high-pitched harmonics of the wind chimes, the rustling ...

2024-01-27 20:09:15 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! There’s only a few revisions in this one! :D The most notable of which is having Thalmin directly asking about the existence of humanity’s nobility, because I thought it was a better and a smoother way to transition into having Emma talk about Earth's remaining nobility! :D Aside from that the only edits that have been made is just me rearranging a few phrases and word...
2024-01-27 20:04:13 +0000 UTC View Post“I need to rephrase this in a way that’s more appropriate.” Vir began by ‘clenching’ those two glowing eyes tight, forming two distinct lines vaguely alluding to a simplified, text-based rendition of a frustrated and exasperated expression. “And in a way that’s above all else - more respectful. As those that have held the title of anchor, have proved to be an instrumental componen...
2024-01-23 20:07:06 +0000 UTC View Post“Emma.” Thalmin uttered out with an uneasy and darkened timbre. “What is happening?” He pointed, expectedly, at the rapidly developing enclosure dam. As activity doubled, tripled, then quadrupled in a matter of seconds on the timelapse. With ships and aircraft buzzing around monolithic and motionless beams lying flat on their sides on either side of the harbor; and land vehicle...

2024-01-20 20:07:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! There’s just a few revisions in this one! :D The most notable of which being a few tweaks made to the very tail end of the ending of the chapter since I wanted to rephrase a few lines there to give it more of a stronger impact, as well as to better illustrate the scene! Beyond that, the only other notable change was made to a few lines describing the ships, as I wanted t...
2024-01-20 20:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post“Most of us do not leave this third stage.” The AI continued, in a voice that was in equal measures hesitant yet insistent on getting that point across. It was as if Vir was stuck between that eternal, very organic struggle, of wanting to explain something extremely important to him yet at the same time being forever reluctant to do so given its troubling nature. ...
2024-01-16 20:09:56 +0000 UTC View PostI snapped my fingers.
And the whole world came to an instant pause.
The sights, the sounds, the endless stream of drones and the chaotic crowds of people all frozen unnaturally in place.
There were multiple ways things could proceed from this point forward.
An inordinate number of trajectories by which this exercise… no, this presentation could be taken.
Hey everyone! Here is the Work in Progress for Chapter 64 I hope you guys enjoy! :D I have an exam tomorrow so I hope you guys enjoy this work in progress while I'm back to studying now! :D

2024-01-13 19:25:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! We have just a few revisions in this one! Most of it is simply rephrasing or changing up the way how a few lines were phrased in order to better improve the flow, the cohesiveness of the meaning behind each sentence or paragraph, or to make things a bit better sounding overall! :D The scene with Thacea looking up at the delivery drones and stuff was one that I’m most pro...
2024-01-13 19:11:15 +0000 UTC View PostThroughout the millennia, a universally accepted fact had acted as the backbone for hostility against the notion of a fully thinking, fully sapient, autonomous artificial intelligence. A fact that was seemingly simple, indisputable, and most of all, self-evident to anyone with even the barest hints of an understanding of the modern world - that artificial intelligence was and always will be fun...

“Yes, Emma?”
“I’m only using the term commoner because I think that it’s, at best, an analogous term that is able to somewhat bridge the gap between our two cultures. However, I don’t think it really gets to the heart of how fundamentall...

2024-01-07 00:41:27 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! We have just a few more additions in this one! As I felt like I wanted to add a bit more banter as well as a bit more to show Thalmin's growing suspicions to ease the transition between Thalmin's fixation on the clothes before leading into his confusion regarding the quality of the everyday person's attire! Aside from that only a few edits have been made here and there aga...
2024-01-07 00:31:23 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! We're back with Wearing Power Armor to a Magic School! :D So this revised version has mainly been focused on just sprucing up a few grammatical issues here and there! I also rephrased a bit of the scene with Ilunor being freaked out by Emma's robotic arm. There's also been a bit of additions to the details regarding the heritage town on the sign just in front of the town. ...

Hey everyone!
I have something super exciting to show you guys!
It’s a little bit of a departure from our usual reference lineup whilst we wait for the Thalmin reference commission! :D
