I looked up at Xocoh, who was going cyan with fury. Kobold quirk there.
Well, might as well rub it in a bit. I split one part of my mind off to work on a Water-generating spell, while taunting my opponent some.
It was terrible practice, but this was a show. I was bei...

Please welcome The School of Sorcery and Spellcraft!” The [Announcer] shouted, and we exited the gates to great fanfare. 2022-12-16 06:43:35 +0000 UTC View Post
“Three cheers for Iona!” I shouted as the Valkyrie entered the School’s living room. After today, all of the School’s teams had competed at least once. Shirayuki had gotten a whole feast arranged for us.
With a single exception, the School of Sorcery and Spellcraft’s teams a...
2022-12-14 13:26:33 +0000 UTC View PostI released [Channeled Blink] as Iona was teleported off the field. Rules and regulations be damned, I wasn’t going to let anyone die in front of me. Mormerilhawn was on top of his game, teleporting Iona and the archer out to the waiting healers the instant bef...
2022-12-12 04:24:21 +0000 UTC View Post“Rolland, please send your next contestant forward.” Mormerilhawn’s voice was loud and clear as a bell, and Eira Barnett stepped forward. The Rolland’s team strategy was clear - put their casters in early, and give them enough time to regenerate mana for the teamfight.
Iona stood wh...

The moons had been shifted. Selene and Lunaris - I could imagine no other entity that could even begin to think about pulling off the stunt - had spun the moons in their orbit, eclipsing the sun and explicitly highlighting Iona before ...

“Brrrpt?” Auri was also offering to come.
Iona shook her ...

Iona had just barely made it under the registration deadline, and had a most interesting session with the [Judge]...

There's also a secondary piece from one last artist trailing in super late. Sharing because!

Hello all!
Sorry this post's a bit late - I pushed it a little hoping for some things to happen that should be happening any day now, but haven't yet as of this post. Curses!
Anyways!
1) It's currently admin week. Next post is on Nov 28th, as my family and I celebrate Thanksg...
I let Iona lean on me, being her support, her pillar. I half-wrapped an arm supportively around her, as I helped her sit down on the bed with me.
“The Valkyries are gone? What?! Tell me more. How did you find out? What do you know? Are you okay?” I fired off questions as fast as I could...

I don't believe I'll be doing this regularly, and I should do this one picture at a time. Also, 'normal' art is still coming this month. That being said - large AI artwork dump!

There was an entire bookshelf filled with books behind me, where the window claimed there was open air and light.
