The Prologue of Volume 3
Added 2020-01-04 02:36:13 +0000 UTCThe Prologue of Volume 3 (In editing-v2)
In the middle of a dark forest, three furtive figures could be seen sprinting forward, their movements silent and sure. These warriors bore dulled, black metallic armor that covered them from head to toe, accompanied by a slim mask that hid their identities.
Two of them were obviously male, with lean, muscular physiques visible even when hidden by their armor. Their masks were colorful, with animalistic, wolf-like features painted onto them, unlike the plain, black mask of the third figure. This last warrior was a female, one that moved in graceful leaps, exuding a tangible Aura of bloodlust. This Aura was visibly wrapping around the other two warriors, somehow helping enhance their speed as they sprinted forward.
How could they know we were coming? One of the two armor-clad males spoke aloud, his voice holding a hint of anger.
I dont know. We got past their sentries clean, Im sure of it. Damn Farian Magic. The other male grunted as he replied, shrugging in mid-air.
Perhaps- Before the first warrior could finish a reply, however, the female warrior interrupted him.
Boys, boys, it doesnt matter. Your jobs arent to think, merely to kill. As soon as she spoke, the other warriors instantly shut up, giving her their full attention.
Their system of Magic is rather odd, it wouldnt surprise me if one of them found a way. She clapped her hands together in delight as she spoke, as if this surprise had become an amusing challenge.
By this point, they had covered an enormous amount of ground, crossing 4 miles in roughly 20 seconds. Their pace was extraordinarily fast.
Still, that just means we have to find that person and kill them. While her face was hidden behind a mask, one could practically hear the smile she now wore.
We are the caretakers of reality. Its our job to guide the world onto the right path. The blood-red Aura that surrounded her seemed to grow darker and more intense, visibly quivering,
The Great War cannot be stopped. Destiny awaits.
Immediately after, the two warriors accompanying her replied, as if by habit,
"Destiny awaits."
"Destiny awaits."
Their words vanished into the night as the three figures fled, leaving behind only a promise of swift retribution...
Swift retribution and death.
Destiny awaits.

4 miles in 20 seconds x 3 = 12 miles a minute x 60 = 720 mph. Speed of sound is about 770 mph. They are running at almost Mach 1.
2020-01-16 19:36:38 +0000 UTCBasically everything you are curious about will be continued in Volume 4, and at the very end of Volume 3 (This of Volume 3's last arc, in the current releases at this time). Volume 3 is a sort of "intro" to the Second Layer, much like Volume 1 was an intro to the First Layer. Everything comes together in Volume 4.

2020-01-08 20:57:31 +0000 UTCStorylines I would like to see something about: The third volume just doesn't have a bunch of time lapse but Shin on the first level. Because of the short amount of time he really hasn't had a chance to improve too much other than Yvvtal's inheritance. What happened to Sophia's sister (this is a huge dangling storyline IMO)? What is Prime doing (should he be in the prologue or chasing those recently introduced Beast Disciples)? How will he separate from his Yvvtal's spirit (The screen time/interaction with the spirit seems to ebb and flow)? There is an undead dragon out there to be used to send as a weapon vs the Deities. I am looking forward to reading and finding out about all these things and probably a few more I have forgotten.

2020-01-08 06:34:41 +0000 UTCWell I guess I should stop Patreonizing you, Wiz...that way I won't ruin the ending for myself when I buy the book ;-)

2020-01-06 07:20:25 +0000 UTCJust wanted to say, I just finished both your books on amazon. I’m no critic, but I read a bunch of material in this genre and what you’ve done so far is really special. Hope you continue with the series, it’s become one of my personal favorites.
2020-01-05 11:02:44 +0000 UTCHmm? What punchline?
