“You think you can take me down with just a single stroke?!” Drake growled, suddenly offended.
Bear stood calmly, unperturbed by Drake’s outburst, “I don’t think anything man, it will only take one for a level 10.”
Drake blinked for a moment. He had forgotten that he was s...

Drake was silent for the next half an hour, trying to understand the implications of him being so high on the TP ladder, and how exposed he actually was. Anyone could identify him at this point, meaning anyone could see his alias and then see his level and put the two together, and try to kill hi...

Hey everyone! Going into January I am going to be making some minor changes to the patreon rewards. This is not me going to take away from what you are supporting, I am actually going to change some of the rewards to be better.
The 3$ Tier will be bumped up to 3 Chapter Advanced releases.

“I’ve got the perfect spell for that,” Drake grinned, “But I was wondering something. What is with the number needed for that quest? 500? That seems a bit impossible and a pretty big jump from the other ones I’ve gotten.”
