After a few minutes of ducking through side alleys, Grace doubled back just in case she’d picked up a tail. She hadn’t seen anyone, but that didn’t mean they weren’t there. It was only paranoia when there weren’t people looking for you.
And even if she was being paranoid, it alway...

With a single raised finger of defiance, Grace ignored the guardsman’s shouts and took off through the bustling market at a dead sprint. She raced through the packed bazaar, weaving her way through the crowd all the while cursing her rotten luck.<...

Max nodded at Aimee, noticing how she didn’t seem to agree as she stood there with her hip cocked to one side.
“I’ll be fine. Stop worrying,” he replied as Max folded up the pad that had been lying on the stone bench. “From what I have learned, thes...
2024-11-26 14:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostThe foxkin had taken his last breath and Max wondered just how much Igarra knew about the strength of each competitor.

Do not fool yourself. What we are facing are strong...

None of the other three hesitated, each of them moving as a group, keeping him pinned in as he let himself get pinned against a wall.
Knowing what was going to happen, Max had his spell already building up, waiting for ...

Max nodded, still keeping his head covered, having finally gotten a shirt that fit and a robe that didn’t itch as much.
The guards moved without waiting, having seen the glowing stone, and glanced over the paper.
As they moved through the gate, fewer peopl...

Kauakan’s expression was hard to read, his exoskeleton not changing at all, yet the pair of eyes and how the eyelids moved were the only clue that he was nervous.
