After a moment of incredulously studying the cudgeled-together connection between the station and the ship, I realized I was going to have to take the first step. With a long sigh, I stepped forward onto the connection. Miru, ever fearless in the face of new and exciting things, was quick to foll...
2024-02-02 16:14:26 +0000 UTC View PostEveryone took a moment to recover from my sudden attempt to change the topic, wanting to focus on the potential to do actual magic. Sally seemed to at least partially pick up on my intent as she energetically started bouncing over the table.
"Well, we will get a sort of… Obelisk, that I c...
2024-02-01 16:10:40 +0000 UTC View PostHello! Just wanted to pop in and explain that you guys will have access to four chapters of The Brink and Back early, with one for Patrons, two for Investors and four for Board Members. This will start after chapter four, which will unfortunately mean it will seem like Investors and Patrons will ...
2024-01-31 16:35:07 +0000 UTC View PostWhile I don't know how many chapter it will be until the next jump, but now is the time to pick where they will be going!
2024-01-30 18:36:44 +0000 UTC View PostTogether, the group silently descended the stairs, the tension rising with every floor we passed. Eventually, after what seemed like ages, we had made it down another ten floors. It was slow going, between me carrying Takagi and the overall need to stay as silent as possible. By then, my legs wer...
2024-01-30 15:57:24 +0000 UTC View PostWithin ten minutes, the power core was up and running. We couldn’t hear it, of course, given how far away we were, but with some help from Racer, who had stayed behind at the hangar, we were able to direct the energy from the power core directly to the life support and artificial gravity. Unfor...
2024-01-29 16:15:37 +0000 UTC View PostThe Intervention led us into one of the large hangar bays built at the center of each face of the internal square, choosing the one furthest from the missing chunk and the Munificent. As we got closer, we could see that this particular bay was mostly empty, with several dozen crates toss...
2024-01-26 16:36:35 +0000 UTC View PostI watched the speech until it was finished, surreptitiously glancing back at the hallway that led to the stairwell, as well as back over to the nearby elevators. Pretty soon, Hans and his men would step out of that elevator, and I had no way of knowing when. I was aware of every second that went ...
2024-01-25 15:40:37 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! This is the first chapter of my new story! Please enjoy, and read the afterwards for a bit extra about how this story will work.

I didn't miss my old life.
My old life was crap, honestly. A dead-end job with no respect. Barely making ends meet...
Barry and I finished our quick run to a nearby corner store, grabbing several bags of salt. The store was in pretty rough shape, with dozens of broken shelves and over ninety percent of its stock gone. Seeing the window shattered and the store a ransacked mess made me glad I had stayed in my apar...
2024-01-23 15:59:51 +0000 UTC View PostThis poll is less of a singular decision, and more a way for me to see how you guys feel about how closely the Skyforged Vanguard works with the Rebellion going forward. The results won't necessarily dictate what happens, but it will definitely influence my choice. Please leave a comment wi...
2024-01-22 20:02:21 +0000 UTC View PostHard to believe this story had already reached 100 chapters! I hope everyone has enjoyed the story so far and is looking forward to the next 100!

Lieutenant Soran, his troops, and the engineers showed up not long after we went out to wait for them. They arrived on two of...
2024-01-22 16:25:53 +0000 UTC View PostWe spent another hour listening to Doralik talk about the resupply station, examining maps, and talking about what sort of damage we could be looking at and what sort of state some of the more sensitive systems might be in. When she was finished presenting everything she had learned, the woman pr...
2024-01-19 16:20:19 +0000 UTC View PostWe made our way back into town at a much slower pace than we had left it. We were loaded down with all sorts of useful, and hopefully useful, stuff, our carts practically overflowing. It was clear that this was the first of many trips we would make to Abe's house. Surprisingly, though, our overlo...
2024-01-18 14:56:35 +0000 UTC View PostOnce we had managed to clear the rubble from on top of the hatch, it became a lot easier to hear the voices coming from inside.
"Help! Is anyone there! We are stuck!" The muffled male voice said. "The dragon, you need to hurry!"
Another voice layered in on top of the first, softer but...
2024-01-16 16:11:17 +0000 UTC View PostBecause of my writing schedule, there isn't enough time to run a poll for where Aiden is going next, so instead the next poll will be what the reward will be!
For future Reward and Location polls, I will be offering two options to vote on, but when I put them into the story, ...
2024-01-15 19:46:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe trip between the old CIS base and the newly inhabited Alpha Base was nothing new. Pola and Vaz continued to work on our armor, spending most of the two-day trip in their workshop according to the morning updates Vakim liked to make. They were both clearly excited about how their project was g...
2024-01-15 16:41:33 +0000 UTC View PostHello! So, if I'm honest, this interlude probably should have come before the previous chapter. Unfortunately, that just didn't occur to me until I was editing it. So enjoy this slightly miss timed Interlude that I think came out pretty good!

General Syndulla stood on the...
2024-01-12 16:32:42 +0000 UTC View PostWith my first idea acting as a solid foundation, the plan came together pretty quickly. Eventually, after some back and forth and when the general outline was complete, Jessica and I both agreed to give it a shot. We then spent about an hour climbing over the truck, making our plan a reality, or ...
2024-01-11 15:37:27 +0000 UTC View PostBy the time we got back to the bastion, it was too late to head out to look for Crazy Abe’s house. With the bikes, we would have definitely made it there and back before dark, but there was no way in hell I was going to rush a trip like that. This would be the furthest any of us had gone outsid...
2024-01-09 16:30:56 +0000 UTC View PostAlright guys, so here are the final option for the teams armor!
To the people who suggested ODST and Starship Trooper armor , they were both good ideas but they don't have the the tight, sleek, complete body coverage look that I was looking for. I will keep them in mind for future things th...
2024-01-08 18:14:01 +0000 UTC View PostMy first task for the next day was to find someone with enough authority to buy the alibi supplies. I left the Chariot pretty early, stopping by the entrance to the hangar to watch the sun slowly rise up the opposite side of the valley. There were alcoves and hangars carved along that cl...
2024-01-08 15:51:17 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! On Monday (January 8th) I plan on starting a poll that will let you guys pick what the Skyforged Vanguards armor will look like. I already have a few options, but before I create the poll, I wanted to give people the option to suggest some. To be clear, I'm looking for a picture o...
2024-01-05 19:27:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe trip to Thila Command took a few days, and the crew spent it unwinding and recovering from the stress and tension of the previous few days. Between constantly being on alert, being stuck on a much smaller ship than we were used to, and the ever-present weight of the Imperial forces around us,...
2024-01-05 16:30:46 +0000 UTC View PostIt didn't take us long to get everything together and head out of the bastion. Jessica and Barry were already set from their previous trip back to the high school, wearing their bulletproof vests and decked out with a full utility belt. While we didn't have pistols for them yet, they each had tas...

2024-01-02 16:37:54 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! Attached is the final edit for Last Resort: The Road Home! I hope you enjoy!
As I mentioned before, I am going to be taking a break from my original content to focus on my fan-fiction.
2024-01-01 19:10:16 +0000 UTC View PostI stepped into the building through the damaged, pried-open doors,l immediately wincing at the blaring sirens and constant flashing red lights. While we had fully expected the facility to be on alert as we entered, I underestimated how obnoxious and distracting it would be. Still, at least we did...
2024-01-01 17:13:49 +0000 UTC View PostOn January 1st, I will be posting the fully edited version of Last Resort: The Road Home. Once I do, I will be taking a break from writing original content to focus on more fan-fiction. As a result, the posting schedule for Rise of the Battlemage will stay the same, but Project Bastion will now b...
2023-12-30 18:07:00 +0000 UTC View PostOnce again, Miru has some downtime, so now you guys get to pick what she is working on!
