Truth lightly sighed and made his way down into the city below. He was quite sure Starbrite wasn't here, but he had to start somewhere. He had the nagging sensation that he was missing something. T...
2024-03-29 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostRache was waiting for us when we got back to the Tower.
“Watcha got for me, Rache?”
“Riding wild and free, boss!” She tossed me a map update. And… ...
2024-03-29 02:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostI don’t know how long we waited, in that broken-time place. It really didn’t matter. Versai sat on the floor, hugging her uncle’s body. Whispering to him, now and then. Shivering. I explored ...
2024-03-29 01:50:01 +0000 UTC View PostMy summons whipped around, as did Versai. And then they froze, not sure what to do. I noticed the lights dimming. Just around the edges of the room- our little stretch of hallway remained in the li...
2024-03-29 01:40:01 +0000 UTC View PostWe queued up outside the second door. I had put myself at the end of the stack this time, and bumped Mika up ahead of Pammy. This was the last unexplored room, so I wasn’t worried about being att...
2024-03-29 01:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostKim summarily presented a small heap of Rune Bones as well as a cosmetic hat usable by scouts. It was a sort of fez looking thing. It would look awful on Rache. Eternally banished to the depths of ...
2024-03-29 01:20:01 +0000 UTC View PostI couldn’t bring myself to look at Mika’s character sheet. Somehow I knew that whatever I read, I would become violent. The Blue Roses too- would they be described as dancers? Entertainers? Som...
2024-03-29 01:10:00 +0000 UTC View PostI still had a couple of summons left, but after a Four Star, I mean, sure, better to have than not to have, but my expectations were nil.
And met. Barely a WoooWooaaaoooaiii in the...
2024-03-29 01:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostWe trooped upstairs. The door to the Records Hall was open, but I skipped it for now. More pressing concerns. Once more, I had kept all the monsters out of the tower, and all my summons alive. We k...
2024-03-29 00:50:01 +0000 UTC View PostRadz fired for effect. Kim kept her buff refreshed, but with the speed that this was closing, I wasn’t optimistic that she was scoring hits.

2024-03-29 00:40:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt was that feeling. The feeling when you are crossing the road, and Truck-Kun is coming straight at you, but it’s not your time yet. You think. You aren’t sure if Truck-Kun knows that. Will he...
2024-03-29 00:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostI was going to hold off on the bulk update until tomorrow, but the feedback I am getting is that delay is confusing/frustrating, so I'm going to bulk update tonight. So. You know. Be prepared.
2024-03-28 22:21:10 +0000 UTC View PostI glared at the three incoming smoke signals. There was a case for picking one and having Radz pound it. There was a case for splitting her fire and trying to slow the columns, break up their rush....
2024-03-28 16:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostTruth hadn’t even made it to the other end of the village before he was forced to confront an inconvenient truth- Snakes generally don’t travel at high speeds while clinging on to other animals...
2024-03-28 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostFirst- I apologize. I thought I had unlocked everything when I was setting up the tiers, and clearly I did not. This was my mistake. The problem was brought to my attention and should now be fixed....
2024-03-28 13:32:41 +0000 UTC View PostTruth walked down the road. Forty kilometers was a casual hour’s stroll, he wasn’t pushing the pace. He wanted to puzzle at Earth Folding Step a bit as he went.

2024-03-26 16:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostTruth looked up through the humid summer sky at the burning heavens above. Each little dot of light a being so utterly beyond him as to defy description. Each moving dot is another being of impossi...
2024-03-26 16:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostI lay on top of the palisade, flopped on the firing step and stared at the blue sky. The cotton-bud clouds drifted slowly, long pillow-coated barges of comfort. Did the Goddess and all her Doki...
2024-03-25 16:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe Iron Horse steadily crossed the mountains; “steadily” being one of those tricky words that sounds objective but is actually subjective. Truth, for example, considered it quite reliable. The...

2024-03-22 16:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostTruth had become something of a connoisseur in the fields of dissociation, alienation, persistent feelings of unreality and a general sense of the inherent wrongness of the world. He could, with re...

2024-03-21 16:10:01 +0000 UTC View PostI froze. The numbers sprinted through my head. Five orders, then it’s night and the battle starts on its own timer. I have used two orders- one to have the Judith's clear trees and make cut board...

2024-03-21 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI finished off what few missions the board offered me, and examined the loot. It… wasn’t much, if I was honest. Stone tapes, resource packs and a few collectable tokens that would eventually be...
