Alex left astera and headed for the mouth of the everstream and could only sigh at how much the terrain had changed. None of what he saw was familiar anymore near the mighty river as everything had collapsed , risen and been buried by the shifting of the earth. The river itself was the only thing that remained the same mostly as the faintly glowing waters flowed unobstructed into the sea. Alex ...
2023-06-03 16:35:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe twin nodded "yeah that makes sense , Hagrid ordered this ring didn't he?" he asked with a knowing grin. "How'd you guess?" Nick asked surprised. "The poor bloke's been griping about slugs in his garden for as long as we can remember." the other twin said with a chuckle. Nick smiled "yup , that sounds like Hagrid alright. Did you know when I asked him to think of an enchantment of some kind ...
2023-06-02 17:55:56 +0000 UTC View PostNick left after that with a wide smile while the twins got dressed and ready to go out. Ten minutes later the twins came down to the common room in their normal robes and Nick frowned. "First thing you need to know about working around fire ." he waved his wand and transfigured their clothes into larger but matching versions of his own "Never wear loose clothing that might get in the way or cat...
2023-06-02 17:54:46 +0000 UTC View PostAlex got three traits from the meal with the last one surprising him , [quick thinking] , [thunder resistance] and [inkosis]. [Quick thinking was rare ranked and was automatically unlocked but at level one Alex didn't feel much difference. [Thunder resistance was common rank however so he just needed to fulfill the requirement for the trait which was merely to get shocked fifty times. [Inkosis]...
2023-06-02 17:51:48 +0000 UTC View PostNick was confused "I have no idea how this could help you make prank items but if you say so." he said with a shrug. "Not this bit specifically mate , but the whole process of making stuff out of metal. That ring of yours is proof enough that metal can be used to make amazing jokers and we want to know how." one of the twins clarified as Nick and them left the room which he then locked. "I can ...
2023-06-02 00:03:36 +0000 UTC View Post"Oh?" Nick said pleasantly surprised to notice that the furnace came preloaded with dragon flame on the dial. "Something wrong mate?" one of the twins asked nervously after hearing him. Nick laughed "No , quite the opposite in fact. Whoever you got this from has done you a favor and loaded an additional flame type to it for free." he explained with a wide smile. the twins perked up "Really? whi...
2023-06-01 18:35:23 +0000 UTC View PostOcclumency was the magic of protecting the mind from intrusion as well as organizing ones mind. The way it did this however was from an internal point of view rather than a biological one which meant that illusions that messed with the mind via biological means still worked. Despite finishing the books Nick was not nearly done researching the topic or else the timeline he gave Snape would be ma...
2023-06-01 18:33:39 +0000 UTC View PostThe hunters dismantling the elder dragon's corpse paused and checked to make sure that they didn't get any of the ink on them. Once they were certain they were clear they went back to it much more carefully this time. "That bad huh?" the admiral asked concerned. 'See for yourself , the stuff's chewing a hole through me even now.' Alex said while pointing at a part of his body that was sizzling ...
2023-06-01 18:28:29 +0000 UTC View PostNick split up with the girls after that since he was headed for the library and they weren't. They weren't the only students relaxing today as in truth most were with even the ever studious Ravenclaws not having their noses in some book or other. There were of course a few students like Nick who were still studying today such as Hermione who was as per usual buried in a pile of books that serve...
2023-05-31 21:40:08 +0000 UTC View Post"Of course sir , please excuse us." Tracy said while nervously fleeing the area with Daphne. "I assume this isn't about my swim in the lake considering you certainly wouldn't care about such a pointless thing correct?" Nick asked casually. Snape seemed to appreciate Nicks frankness as the smallest corner of his mouth ticked upwards ever so slightly. "Indeed , rather I have been informed of your...
2023-05-31 18:41:20 +0000 UTC View PostDespite it's odd look the elder quickly realized that Alex was not a food item but rather a predator like itself. It was confused why Alex had his aura suppressed which is why it made the mistake of targeting him to begin with. Most monsters gave no care for their aura's and as a result it was easy for the others to know if they should turn hostile or flee. Still the elder had it's own pride an...

This was the best I could seem to get from the site I used , let me know what you guys think.
2023-05-30 23:16:02 +0000 UTC View PostNick turned in after restocking his store of sweets , hopeful about finally getting back in the habit of making rings almost everyday. Unfortunately he failed to consider that not everyone wakes up at dawn on their free days and immediately gets productive. It was only when he sat in the common room for an entire time waiting that this dawned on him. 'I guess there is no reason to get ahead of ...
2023-05-30 21:54:24 +0000 UTC View PostThis time Nick not only lowered the intensity of the energy but he also changed the intended enchantment to a fire based one. This caused his spirit to turn red and flickering despite actually being stable as it took on the properties of the element. With a light tap of his hammer Nick backed away from the anvil quickly since according to the crafting method elemental failures tend to be rather...
2023-05-30 19:40:25 +0000 UTC View Post'This could become a problem later' Alex thought seriously as he dragged the juvenile monsters corpse back to astera to be dismantled. He wasn't done clearing out the water just yet with this single kill so he simply dropped off the corpse and headed back out. This time rather than relax and move nice and smoothly he pushed his body to it's limits to try and figure out exactly how large of an i...
2023-05-30 17:25:46 +0000 UTC View Post"I already know precisely the classroom I would like to use , assuming you are not too busy to see it that is." Nick said eagerly but remembered that she might have other plans already. "You are in luck it seems Mr. Iron as I just finished my work for the day when you arrived." Mcgonagall said with a small smile. "It's not far from here , near the charms classroom in fact." Nick said as he stoo...
2023-05-29 15:38:49 +0000 UTC View Post"Who is this Nicolas Flammel and what does he have to do with whatever Hagrid took from the vault a month ago?" Harry asked with a frown as the group walked away from Hagrid's hut back to the castle. Nick didn't give out his knowledge on the matter but winced when Tracy froze in shock at the question. 'Right nobility members like them probably teach this kind of knowledge to their children.' he...
2023-05-29 15:35:34 +0000 UTC View Post"Aye , it's been a pain to deal with for us without your help as well. Really put into perspective how much we've come to expect your help with the monsters nearby. Once the ground settled the monsters went on a rampage all around the new world with the elders recess being by far the worse. Only good thing to come of it really besides all this extra space had to be that tunnel to the Everstream...
2023-05-29 15:30:36 +0000 UTC View PostThere will be no chapter today and possibly tomorrow as there was a sudden change in plans and I had no time to prepare.
2023-05-27 16:52:02 +0000 UTC View Post"That'd be a load off my mind if ya could thanks." Hagrid said eagerly. "I should be able to get it to you soon after I get the workshop set up." Nick said while writing down the order and specification down for later on a small note pad. "How much ya reckon it'll cost me?" Hagrid asked curiously. "Depends on if you want it made of something specific with any extra effects , if you only want a ...
2023-05-27 00:29:48 +0000 UTC View Post"Oh really now? Whatcha need a workshop fer?" Hagrid asked interested. Nick showed off Greed "I'm a ring maker and need the workshop to perform my craft." he said honestly. Hagrid looked surprised but impressed "Ring seems a bit odd what with the way it moves like that , looks like it'd itch." He said honestly. Nick took the ring off and tossed it to him "not at all , give it a try." he suggest...
2023-05-27 00:27:46 +0000 UTC View PostIt was a little bit of a walk to reach the edge of Hagrid's gardens from the castle since the area the school held was truly massive if you included the lake and forest. The field outside the castle that Nick and the others needed to cross was easily a couple miles across. This meant it took a good thirty minutes to reach the hut and knock on the huge rough wooden door. "BARK! BARK!" Hagrid's d...
2023-05-26 20:28:23 +0000 UTC View PostDumbledore couldn't help but have a complex expression as he looked at Nick from the professors table in the great hall. He had spoke to Minerva earlier and learned that not only was the boy just as gifted at transfiguration magic as a metamorphagus but that he was cursed with situational awareness. Most children his age wouldn't realize what his power and influence could accomplish but Nick di...
2023-05-26 20:26:21 +0000 UTC View Post'Yeah , I suppose I owe him a little for the scar but only this once , I'm not some god to be worshiped after all.' Alex said sternly. "Funny story about that , quite a few people seem to think you are in fact some sort of god beast come to guide us to prosperity. I think they're a bunch of loons to be honest but they are entitled to their beliefs." The admiral said with a helpless shrug. Alex ...
2023-05-26 18:02:04 +0000 UTC View PostNick was pretty good at manipulating his own facial expressions since remaining stone faced all the time makes people avoid you. In public you need to look calm or cheerful in order to fit in , a fact he learned the hard way in his past life. While the memories regarding information that this world simply lacked were gone his habits and temperament hadn't changed much. In fact losing his previo...
2023-05-25 20:39:11 +0000 UTC View PostWell actually Mcgonagall did assign homework but since it was literally just to play this nifty game Nick came up with to familiarize themselves with transfiguration it didn't really count. Most of the students had planned to try it out themselves anyways since it seemed pretty fun , much like wizards chess. "Mr. Iron if you would please stay after class I have something to discuss with you." M...
2023-05-25 17:54:43 +0000 UTC View Post'Four months lost forever just because of a single monsters stupidity.' alex growled angrily seeing this. It wasn't totally not worth it as he got some amazing upgrades as a result but Alex knew the suffering that came with these abilities and he would choose not to get them like this every time if he could. Contrary to what his training might imply Alex was not a masochist who enjoyed sufferin...
2023-05-25 16:36:34 +0000 UTC View PostOnce everyone was done they took a brief break to ease their minds a bit before the second portion of the class began. "how could you just let me suffer like that I thought we were friends!?" Tracy asked dramatically. "You could see the board just as well as I could , besides I was the first person here so I got started earlier than everyone else is all." Nick said with a scoff. "I'm still mad&...
2023-05-24 16:17:21 +0000 UTC View PostBeing denied satisfaction to her curiosity only served to irritate the girl even further but she was far too proper to break the rules to get what she wanted. Nick was actually worried the girls head might pop with how her veins were pulsing under her skin and her clear anger. Hell her wand wasn't even in her hand and it was popping constantly to vent away the rampant magic energy she was exudi...
2023-05-24 16:15:57 +0000 UTC View PostThe wanderer and admiral had long since vacated the area so Alex didn't need to worry about them. Instead he was far more focused on getting the hell out of dodge and surviving the incoming explosion. He covered miles in moments but it proved to be insufficient as soon a massive burst of wild white energy erupted from Xeno jiiva's location atomizing it instantly before spreading. The world itse...
