Mirian awoke on the 1st of Solem, the year of Poclym 4851, for the 214th time. She stared at the hole in the ceiling where the temporal anchor in her had come from, all those years ago. She looked to the side where her roommate Lily was still asleep. She had long ago given up talking to her. The ...
2025-06-08 17:49:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe way I've got it now, Chapter 218 is the end of book 3. However, it's still possible I do some edits to mess around with the ending so that it's properly satisfying. Feel free to comment your feelings on the matter! Are there things that feel like they should have been covered in book 3 that w...
2025-06-04 17:13:53 +0000 UTC View PostThey’d set up the device on the tallest tower of Vadriach University. Late evening light near sunset was best for looking at the Divir moon. That way, the sky wasn’t too bright to see it, but the light was still reflecting off it. As the spell engine telescope swung into position, Jherica sta...

They spent the night at the old house, then headed back to the plateau. As the date ticked closer to armageddon, her father continued his instruction. Centuries of spellcasting had given him such a wealth of knowledge, and there were old spells he knew about she’d never heard of. He also had a ...
2025-06-01 15:30:34 +0000 UTC View PostGaius prepared breakfast for her, and then they set off, levitating to the old house. As they flew, they talked.
“I believe your theory is right,” her father said. “The Sixth Prophet spent a great deal of his time dealing with corruption in the Academies. There were also some high pro...
2025-05-30 18:32:43 +0000 UTC View PostThey stood atop the plateau. Mirian faced her father and gave him a salute with Eclipse.
“Don’t hold back,” her father called.
Mirian took a deep breath. Her heart was pounding in a way that had only been matched by her confrontation with Ibrahim. She had thought through her str...

Gaius Nezzar stood in the kitchen, hands wrapped around a mug of tea. He’d reactivated the illusion so that one of the walls looked like Mirian’s childhood home.
“Where is this house?” she asked.
“Ten miles or so northeast. Not too far from Falijmali. Deep enough in th...
2025-05-25 16:10:36 +0000 UTC View PostMirian had thought through her plans endlessly, but they had all been for different circumstances. Worse ones, in fact. If there was one thing she could be absolutely certain of, it was that her father was on her side.
It was a key advantage.
They had a minute, maybe less. “If you w...
2025-05-21 17:40:37 +0000 UTC View PostHappy Seventhday! I updated the map found in the glossary with a few places like Florin City and Falijmali and a few other place names. I plan to update the glossary with some of our newer characters fairly soon. If you click on the map, you can then zoom in pretty close. Here's ...
2025-05-18 17:28:58 +0000 UTC View PostShe was four. She was running through her home, feeling the glee of movement. The hot desert air blew between the sandstone pillars of the open hall. Beyond them was a garden of hardy desert plants. She didn’t like it as much as the courtyard garden, the one with the pond and all the pretty lot...
2025-05-18 17:10:31 +0000 UTC View PostMirian woke, sealed the hole above her bed with shape wood and shape metal, quickly threw on her clothes, then sprinted out her dorm and to the plaza in front of Bainrose Castle. She blinked beneath the flagstones, plummeting a dozen feet before casting levitation to st...

On the 211th loop, Mirian flew northeast from the Mahatan Gate again, this time skipping the retrieval of the lotuses in exchange for pure speed. She kept her use of using myrvite souls and mana drain to a pace she knew she could handle, allowing her to use bursts of accelerated levi...
2025-05-11 17:02:24 +0000 UTC View PostMirian’s search of the surrounding area that cycle turned up little. Occasionally, she would look out at something and feel the faintest hint of deja vu, but it was hard to say if she was even remembering something or just going insane from looking at too many rocks.
With a few days left ...
2025-05-07 17:48:48 +0000 UTC View PostPatreon seems to have made it so I can send out full chapters by email to people when I make an edit, so the second tier should be getting full chapters emailed out now for a better reading experience. If there's any problems with that, let me know. I may or may not be able to do anything about i...
2025-05-04 17:46:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day, Mirian returned to Najwa’s Artificing Shop. It was early morning, so there were no customers. Najwa was carefully disassembling a scrapped spell engine. From the dozens of glass vials spread out on the table, Mirian guessed she was extracting magichemicals from glyphs, a laborious...
2025-05-04 17:24:09 +0000 UTC View PostRavatha looked at Nurea. Nurea looked at Ravatha. Mirian, lounging in a chair, observed them both as they both had what could only be described as a stern-look contest. After a bit, the competition seemed to resolve in Nurea’s favor, because Ravatha looked away. “This is absurd,” she said.<...
2025-05-03 03:27:08 +0000 UTC View PostNear the end of the 205th loop, Mirian checked back on Torrviol. Professor Seneca and the alchemists of the Academy were isolating and studying several of the strange magichemicals produced by the jeweled lotuses, but the alchemistry was time consuming. Viridian continued to work on hybrid lotuse...
2025-04-30 16:43:06 +0000 UTC View PostThanks for all the suggestions and responses to last week's question! Now I need to figure out how to get into a time loop myself so I have enough time to read everything. Anyways, here are the chapters that got published this week:

It turned out the ‘bit of fun’ had to wait; they first had to acquire a tri-point meter, which took longer than any of them anticipated. While a carriage full of servants was borrowing one from one of the private academies in the city, Gabriel took the time to review the menu and made some su...
2025-04-27 16:31:53 +0000 UTC View PostMirian started the cycle by connecting the Torrviol Gate to Mahatan, then snuck into the hidden gardens and stole several jeweled lotuses for Viridian to study. With the professors set on various research tasks, she headed for Florin City.
With some trepidation, she wondered if her adoptive...

Mirian’s journey back to Mahatan was significantly longer. By the time she arrived in the city, the worst of the soul disruptions were smoothed out, though she still sometimes felt her aura discharge mana as some tangle swirled about. She could still sense soul fragments, and still incorporate ...
2025-04-20 16:31:02 +0000 UTC View PostPrince Rehiz was already on the move as Mirian flew through the palace, sending servants and bureaucrats scattering. With enhanced detect life, she could see the a large group moving down a hallway towards the north section of the palace. The tight formation moving in synchronization aro...

Selkus Viridian sat next to Mirian on the garden bench, looking out across the courtyard. An artificial waterfall from one of the stone aqueducts was complemented by bird song. The birds, unfortunately, were in little bronze cages, which glittered prettily but somewhat soured Mirian on the scene....
2025-04-13 16:46:39 +0000 UTC View PostIt took Mirian three and a half hours, and half of that time was cajoling Viridian into abandoning an early dinner to come join her. The man had his habits.
She informed Torres of when the Gate had switched over so the leyline detector data wouldn’t be mixed up and had her team start work...
