"Wow, that's one way to get the blood pumping!" Pit exclaimed. Above them, the Manaships and Thalgrym's aerial warriors clashed with the shadowbeasts. Bloody lightning raged across the skies as the gods cried out in annoyance.
For the moment, they were forgotten.
"Can we get the princess to...

The voice of the gods crashed like thunder, and the Stormwardens appeared within the dark Tempest. Their limbs were like shadows even after breaking through the stormwall, slick darkness stretched up over their extremities as they thrashed the clouds to ribbons, as if they were fighting some invisible force. Their halo of lightning f...

Pit stood at the edge of Euphonia, contemplating the stormwall.
A formal structure had been built there, leading off the edge of the floating island. It was Nymean-made; that much was clear to him. Their signature pattern of stars was repeated everywhere, and a motif of roots and vines were engraved into the ta...

Primeval Drift is level 82!
Archie walked free of another jar, carrying two more wheezing bodies atop his shoulders. He stumbled to a stop as his ears started working again and whipped his head to the side. He blinked. A firehose the size of a waterslide was being blasted off from a…glowing guy...

Yari clutched the pole, his hands bloody from a long day of navigating the Poison Fields. His other hand clung the side of their flatboat as they were tossed by surging poisonous waves. In the distance, serpents did battle with a monster.
Monsters fighting abominations. We’re doomed.

"Beef has them fully engaged. Proceed to the Overlord's Manor," the sharp-winged matriarch said as she landed beside him.
Kevin, on Harn’s left, shuddered. "God, that's creepy. A voice like yours shouldn't be coming out of a giant skink."
"Hmm," Hallow mused. Then the water bubbled just f...

Beef walked carefully on the dark edge of the jungle where dry ground met sudden noxious wetland. He'd taken his time, moving as quietly as possible through the underbrush as the sun rose slowly into the sky. Scratch that. As the sun tinted the sky, the sun's rosy hue faded slowly into early morning blue. 2024-08-02 12:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post

They trudged through the jungle, the Wyrmkin with their spiral necklaces leading the way. Beef still couldn't see the wards that supposedly hid their presence, but the occasional flash of Mana vapor caught his eye. Even if he hadn’t, Beef had decided the Kobolds were cool. Mostly, it just felt good to have someone from Earth...

The Theron's body ignited as crystalline Mana poured out of her Gates, congealing above her into the shape of a massive book. Easily the size of a car, it was made of translucent purple and gold light. The pages within gleamed with an oppressive power that rammed down at him, splintering the stone beneath Felix's fe...

The elevator dinged as it reached the seventy-first floor, and the doors opened onto a pale white hallway lit with sconces filled by purple Mana crystals.
Zara peered out. "Can you sense her?"
"She’s not here." Felix leaned back into the elevator and tapped the sigils for the next fl...

The halls of the Violet Tower were quiet, but unlike outside, Apprentices and Journeymen were everpresent. Mages moved swiftly up and down corridors, speaking in clipped tones and shifting materials from one room to another. Everyone seemed to have work they needed doing, which was great for Felix and his friends. Their off-whit...

The first thing Felix saw as the skiff doors opened was purple. Great sheets of it, magical and slightly transparent, hung from every wall and solid surface he could see. Though they could only see the squat edifice of the dockmaster’s office from their vantage point, it was clear that no building went without a touch o...

It was morning, and the sun had barely crested the horizon when Felix, Zara, and the rest crowded aboard Vilas Tern's personal skiff, headed for the Violet Tower. At first, Felix had been nervous. They had spent the night strategizing on the best way to approach the Tower and achieve their objectives. The preparation, however, was no...

"So, you chose Beefhammer as your name? That's hilarious.”
“Better than Shadowlord, Devon,” the green-gold Kobold snickered.
"Hey!” The purple Kobold poked his brother. “We don't use our old names unless we want to! That's a rule, remember?”

"Enough!"
A voice boomed through the chamber, halting everyone in their steps. A physical pressure pushed down against them, shoving Wyrmkin to their knees and even Beef felt it weigh on his shoulders. The rebels gasped, most falling backwards, and Beef turned around.
At the far end of the...

"What do you mean we gotta be tested?" Archie asked.
The Elf leading them through the jungle looked back at him, a glimmer of pride in his eyes. "We're bringing you to meet the Wyrms, but in order to see them, in order to access the true might of the resistance, you must pass through the test."
"I'm not great at test...

After Thalgrym’s declaration, Pit and everyone else were confined to their ships, forced to wait out the night in the ancient berths near the eyrie. As the moons crested above the foggy horizon, Pit sat on the deck, staring around at the floating islands and picking apart what he had said to the council.
"I should...

Pit was among the first to greet the Chimera. As his friends disembarked from the ships, Pit and A’zek approached the line they made around the star-shaped platform. Lots of sniffing and excited jostling marked the line of Chimeras as they came close, but not too close, to the Manaships, as if there were a line in the sand they wer...

Their fleet followed in Scylla's wake.
Pit flew with her, easily keeping up with the smaller Tenku as the storm intensified. With every beat of his wings, it seemed they drew nearer the heart of it, until the world thundered around them like the growling of a ferocious beast. Wind, rain, and ceasel...

A storm crackled overhead as their ships anchored against its terror. All nine Manaships were lashed together in the aftermath of the Twilit Apes' attack. The wounded were laid out on the decks, wrapped in bandages to staunch the worst of their injuries. Soldiers were busy doling out potions, but there were too many wounded to handle separate...

After tea was had, and nerves had settled as much as Felix imagined they would, Tern set his saucer down and grimaced.
"I suppose it is time for me to fulfill my end of the bargain," he said.

They settled into a study of sorts. A fireplace sat behind them, cast out of iron in the likeness of a curling, serpentine Dragon. The interior of the fireplace, however, was filled with more books. As was the mantel, which had a number of dog-eared tomes beside a collection of small ivory monster skulls. The walls were lined with built-in ...

Felix paced at the edge of a sloped roof, the sky of Levantier above him full of Manaships slowly meandering between him and the clouds. He worried at his lip with his teeth. It had been several long minutes since Pit had eaten the Twilit Ape, and all Felix had to sooth himself was silence.

Archie fell through the street and, for a brief moment, it was as if he ceased to exist.
It was always like this. Using Primeval Drift wasn't like closing his eyes. When he phased through solid matter, his sight stopped functioning entirely. His ears were deaf. His voice was muted. There was no color nor light an...

Down the main thoroughfare the new construction continued, though beyond those blocks Archie could tell it was mostly residential. The town was too small for much else. The quality of homes varied as the smell of mildew and water filled the air—a thin river cut through the southern end of the town, and the homes changed rapidly from larg...

It was a short jaunt down a fern-crowded defile and across a half mile of dense jungle before the two of them reached the road. In Archie’s opinion it barely qualified as such; made of hard-packed dirt studded with half-sunk blocks of stone scattered at seemingly random. Deep ruts marred its surface t...
