Some of you may have noticed that I changed the Enhancer tier benefits from "5 Chapter Headstart" to "Backlog Access." I'm doing this so that I can write on a less strict schedule. I know that my previous output wasn't incredible by any means. Many authors on Royal Road and elsewhere crush my two...

The explosion immediately blew through every one of Janus’ reinforced mana panes, only stopping after it blew Tara completely off her feet. Janus and Rowan only felt a rumble.
