Scenes From Elsewhere (Carthage III)

For the past year, a Civil War had been in the offing in Carthage. Gisgo had never formally relinquished his title of Malik to the Assembly of Shophets when they demanded he do so. Instead, he took...

Chapter 21

The Dodds Mansion was like some sorta time capsule, a Gilded Age Remnant that stuck out like a sore thumb in the modern skyline. Shit'd been built at the turn of the century by Wealthy Investor Edw...

Interlude: Ra

Ra was, slowly, making his way around his Empire on his Great Progress. Already he had been feasted with gusto by his son, Heru'ur, and with somewhat less gusto by his brother, Apophis. Most recent...

Chapter 90

Watching the fights of the New Faces Team was an educational experience. The Brawler, Nanakase, seemed to mostly be just that, a brawler. Some of his moves had a fluidity to them that made me think...

Chapter 50

Athens was surrounded. As winter crept upon us and December dawned, my Army had dug into positions around Athens and settled in for a siege. Our Trebuchets hammered the walls as days turned to nigh...

Chapter 100

I unfortunately only had a single night to spend with Brienne before having to march out of the Capital with Stannis' Army for the Battle with Tywin's Army. Even more unfortunately, the Red Keep wa...

Chapter 16

The Jarl's Castle was a great monolith of tiered stone on a hill overlooking the main street of Jannathstaad. Five levels of towers and walls rose up along the hillsides, leading to a great keep at...

Chapter 9

Lizzie's Bar was all the way in Kabuki. V wasn't around for me to bum a ride off of for this trip either, as she'd been contacted by Tio Padre about a Job. Something about a Fixer out in Santo Domi...

Interlude: Memento Mori

Captain Arnošt Svatoš of the Alpha Company of Delta Battalion, First Guards Regiment, had been sent in ahead of the rest of First Guards that were already unloading in the city of Nova Salon...

Chapter 15

The Âu Cơ Fortress was, at least nominally, impregnable. Bastions of Trinium-Reinforced Stone atop a large mountain, with tunnels honeycombed throughout the mountain and redoubts on a number of n...

Chapter 89

The next two matches were informative, not just for me, but for anyone paying attention. Kusanagi Kyo clearly had some form of Divine Empowerment, as the flames his Chi sparked forth registered as ...

Chapter 32

The first thing I did after getting on the Hogwarts Express was to find Hermione and exchange late Christmas Presents. Once again, I gave her a Tebo-Bone Disillusionment Ring and got a book in retu...

Images for Chapter Fifteen

Here are the images for Chapter Fifteen. We have a few major players making their first on-screen appearance, so hopefully the AI Generator got Elminster, Sarevok, and the Blackstaff right. As for ...

Chapter 99

As I entered the Throne Room of the Red Keep for the first Court of King Stannis' Reign in King's Landing, I couldn't help but notice the mood was a lot brighter than I thought it would be. Part of...

Chapter 15

As I dreamed, I found myself transported to what seemed to be a giant casino with magnificently plush silk carpets dyed richly in blue and silver. All around me were games of chance going on, as ta...

Chapter 45

As soon as we returned to the Mansion, I was off to grab a shower and a change of clothing. Atlantis didn't have showers, per se. Instead, they used a sort of sonic machine that vibrated the grime ...

Chapter 56

As I reconvened with my Council using the HPG, I had to thank Precentor Armanovitch for all the work she'd done for me as part of our small, but growing, conspiracy against the leading factions of ...

Unfortunately, Packing for my Camping Trip is taking up a lot of my time tonight and I have to sleep soon. That means you guys get this instead of a second update. Hopefully, you aren't too put out...

Chapter 31

The Gift Exchange was a larger affair at the Ball than it would have been elsewhere. There were, apparently, two separate gift exchanges. With the Adults exchanging second while the kids went ...

Announcement: Small Pause This Weekend

I will be camping this weekend, meaning I will have limited, if any, internet Access. I will have a chapter out tonight, maybe two, but then there will be no chapters until Sunday Evening when I re...

Chapter 20

The second that cackle rang out, Jackie knew that he was in for some shit. The lights winking out as the fuses blew from the sheer mystic power of an unbound and vengeful spirit was the sorta shit ...

Chapter 88

As the fight recommenced, Kim launched himself into the air about twenty feet up flipping around and flaring his Chi to come down at me with a diving kick that somehow had him rocketing down at me....

Interlude: Battle of King's Landing (Non-Ricasso) II

Stannis Baratheon growled as he cut down a Gold Cloak who was trying to cut him down with a halberd, parrying the descending chop with his blade and literally kicking the man off the walls of the C...

Chapter 14

Lieu Hanh was dead. I hadn't trusted the reports I'd been given at first, thinking them a trick. Most Goa'uld would try faking their own death if they could use it to escape, perhaps hijacking the ...

Chapter 14

The Very First thing that happened as Thorfinn the Tall led the Crew of the Hammerdown against our party was that Janessa looked over to the right with a sharp motion of her head. She...
