Sofia still did not dare to look away from the Veik King, and with the lack of air, she could not speak, so, for a lack of a better option, she used her back as a writing board. She flattened the back of her bone armor and let her words carve themselves upon it.

So, I've had this idea about a cyberpunk style story just running around in my head for a while, and tonight, I was quite bored, so I just scribbled some stuff. It's like... A proof of concept? What could become a first chapter with a lot of work?
The warrior’s body extended from both sides and glued itself back together in an instant. He charged at Pareth while his sword was still on the ground, but failed to hit him, as he had to raise his sword to deflect an arrow of light coming from Bookie. His momentum lost, he teleported again. 2024-02-28 17:01:14 +0000 UTC View Post
