Chapter 230
Halloway hit the wall with a grunt, more surprised than anything. He hadn’t expected the man who had confronted him to be so quick on his feet, Or this strong. He thought as he met the man’s eyes. Craftsman was not a large man, he was thin, built like a desk jockey. He wore a pair of...

SHRRRIIIIK
Ishtar knew the trajectory of the attack, all of her mental abilities working in concert to navigate the fight. Even so; He’s so goddamn fast! She thought, twisting to the right as the golden sword cut through the air to her left. She kicked off the ground and int...

Inches away.
There he was. The man whose actions in another timeline, another life, had been the impetus for her own creation. Ishtar could, in some way, credit her birth to the impetuous little man that stood before her. How many days had she spent in her early state, before she was fully ...

Above the widening melee, above the flames that Kerauna stirred with her ceaseless storm. Ishtar looked down from within a weave of illusions upon the heroes and cultists facing one another in battle. The cultists had formed up within what appeared to be a well disguised single-story fort. The wa...

The first wave of cultists Ishtar came across poured through the trees in a wave of rage and fanaticism. Screaming at the top of their lungs as they brought their weapons to bear against their unnatural enemies. Ishtar floated lazily above the Legion as it charged, some of them taking surface dam...

Ishtar stood on the beach, the Atlantic Ocean crashing against the immaculate sandy shoreline. She was in her full regalia, helmet, armor-all gear prepared. Time was winding down and she was beginning to accept the fact that she would be going into this fight without her other half. She closed he...

Side Story: Drums of War 3
Screams came from within the cave but neither person on either side of the entrance moved an inch to investigate. One trembled, his eyes downcast as the fog from his breath and tears obscured his glasses. He reached up and tugged on the scarf around his neck, trying to hold himself together as th...

CLANG!
Sword met hammer and the two weapons skittered off one another, sparks snapping out and dancing off the floor. Lillian stepped forward and swept her weapon low, pulling it down first and then to the right in a rapid change of direction that would have been impossible for an ordinary ...

Carla marched down the hallway, her heels clicking against the marble floor. A small crowd of men and women followed her, doing their best to match her brisk pace. She wanted to leave them behind and escape the sea of bureaucrats and sycophants left over from her predecessors regime. She felt no ...

Ishtar rounded the corner, dipping low in the process, her hair fluttering up behind her. The axe swung across the spot where her throat had been just a moment before. She turned her head sharply, looking up into the blood-red eyes of the emerald skinned humanoid, its muscles bulging with t...

Ishtar pulled her hand away from the mote with a jolt, her brow furrowing in consternation. For a moment there she felt Sonya’s mind reach out to her, offering reassurance, but the message was indistinct. She couldn’t make out much beyond the vague sense that Sonya had faith in her. Ishtar fr...

The void wrapped around her, spreading out in an endless expanse. The silence was deafening. The pressure, incomprehensible. The crushing weight of eternity pressing down on Sonya like a mountain. She held herself as steady as she could, floating in that place that seemed like the space in her ow...

Thunder rumbled overhead, it was still muted, but it felt closer, more insistent. It nearly drew her attention but the man before her reached forward to rap his knuckles on the table. She looked back at him, possibilities and questions bounding about in her head like so many pinballs. She shifted...

Sonya stared blankly down at the snow crunching beneath her feet as they passed through the silent forest. She wasn’t entirely sure where she was in comparison to Titania’s court but based on the rules of this twisted world, she wasn’t far away. The wind picked up, whipping between the tree...

Um…
Sonya cleared her throat while Pandora stared up at her, slack jawed and her brows raised in disbelief. The woman didn’t move an inch to take her hand, she didn’t even look at it.. Pandora’s eyes were fixed solely on Sonya’s face with an expression that made her wonde...

Pandora?
In between the decades of senselessness that came and went in this terrible place, Sonya had rallied herself to take stock of the mysterious world around her. She was keenly aware that it wasn’t real, but it also seemed to obey many of the rules of reality. It had other ...
