It was a small place underground, but it was good enough for the half elf. The stone walls bare as innocence, a solitary chill seeping deep into the room and into the half elf’s bones. As he channelled his Mana through his body, it fought off the chill, the warmth of magic flooding through his ...

The market was bustling with peoples, thousands before them. There were many, most commoners adorned in colourful clothing, but they stayed far away from the likes of those who were escorted by the heavily armoured, and those who were escorted by those without.

‘Impossible!’ Sabreen thought, for the half elf was far too young to face against the likes of Vaseera and Rook. No, he was too young to defeat the likes of Vaseera and Rook simultaneously, a feat which even the Sabres of Dusk would find difficult. The Faro’s mind raced with the thought of ...

“I have to mention that the business is led by quite a few Iyrmen, so if you have any qualms working beside Iyrmen, or receiving their orders, it might be an issue,” Adam said as she returned.
“If I had an issue with that, I wouldn’t have entertained your words for this long.”

“Do you feel it too?” Rook asked, the figure adorned in his full plate, his helmet, in the face of a hyena, settled at his side. A familiar blade hung to his side, the kind that had been auctioned in Red Oak in years previous.
“I do,” Vasera confirmed, the woman adorned in full plat...

The city sprawled across the horizon, the buildings flowing out like a wave across the land, the hilly terrain carrying homes and fields like waves on the sea. The large walls seemed so broad, so heavy, the kind that held the seat of power of an entire region. It had been only a couple of months ...

Afraz couldn’t help but laugh, listening to Adam’s tales, the old man reaching out to pat the half elf on his back. He made to speak, only to burst out into laughter once more.
Indeed, what could be funnier than showing those old fogies what’s what?

The port town provided great relief to the travellers, especially during such a turbulent times, the Reavers far in the distant horizon.

The ship was beautiful, in the sense it was built to be a ship first, and held little to no frills. It was extremely large, large enough to carry all of their carriages upon the deck. The crew numbered a few dozen at least, all busy on deck to earn all their pretty silvers. The three sails splaye...

The tale was unbelievable. Of course it was. How was it that after they left, a tsunami of trouble threatened to drown him?
Ah.
Right.
It was because Adam was Adam.

“How was it that you managed to kill him?” Mirac asked, for there was too much ambiguity in the half elf’s statements, even though he spoke clearly. It was impossible, wasn’t it, for a young man to defeat the likes of a Paragon? It was one thing for Jurot to defeat his sister, but another...

Hello there!
Last month I was quite sick and though I’m much better I’m still feeling the after effects of it. Thankfully I’ve been working on my health for a while so I’m not quite so lethargic as I usually am.
I am now chapters behind on Beyond Chaos, and I’m sorry about ...

The carriages rolled out of the town, leaving behind a whirlwind of rumours.

The room felt so much colder, the young half elf sitting in the middle of his bed, cross legged, staring out at the wall ahead of him, but seeing nothing in particular. He remained uncertain. Uncertain of what to say. Uncertain of what to do. Uncertain of even what to think.
