As I walked down the stairs to the platform on which my visitors had been fighting for my entertainment, the air started to stir and shift. It wasn’t just the air of intimidation I tried to proje...
2022-11-09 17:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostObserving the Travellers as they cautiously made their way up the stairs, only to realise that they were in full view of my Throne, without any cover nearby and freeze was quite amusing. To be fair...
2022-11-08 17:00:10 +0000 UTC View Post“What on earth is he talking about?” Clavran asked one of his fellow Korbal, as Howardlight finished his challenge to the dark-cloaked guardian that had stepped forward to meet their attack. Fr...
2022-11-07 17:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostI was somewhat amused when I realised that I actually recognised the leader of this motley band of adventurers. Or rather, of Travellers, for I was now completely convinced that they all were from ...
2022-11-06 17:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostA cloying, almost overpowering presence seeped out of the Soul Prison, wrapping itself around Lenore and me, the two of us separate once more. The presence was faintly familiar and I intellectually...

2022-11-05 15:37:11 +0000 UTC View PostLooking up, into the massive mountains surrounding them, Clavran could only shake his head. Just a week ago, he had been fighting in the Arena of the White Tower, fighting to entertain the masses a...
2022-11-04 17:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostGently touching the Soul Prison, I felt the power pulsing within. The difference was incredible, from the faint, almost extinguished presence it had when I first got it, to the palpable sense of po...

2022-11-02 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostAt the edge of the Elven Forest, where the dryad-bound giant trees of their home have to give way to the smaller, ordinary trees that grow near the slopes of the Mountains of Ice, a small army is m...
2022-10-31 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostA frown creased my forehead, as I was looking down at the elvish army. I couldn’t believe that they would be this reckless and predictable, simply marching up the valley without taking any additi...
2022-10-30 17:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostObserving by myself, the images were even clearer than seen in the memory of the Nevermore. It truly was an army that made its way up the mountains and, almost certainly, towards my valley. Seen fr...
2022-10-29 16:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostAfter five days of hard work, the valley had completely changed once again. Not only were there creatures roaming around the valley, but there were even multiple walls protecting the perimeter and ...
2022-10-28 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostAfter knowing that I might, eventually, get a veritable host of spirit-infused Ice constructs, I had a wide smile on my face. Maybe, for once, we wouldn’t be hopelessly outnumbered. But before I ...
2022-10-27 16:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostIt took me a few seconds to recover after seeing those two boxes. I could easily accept the title, and it even tickled me that I had gained it, though I had no idea what it would actually do. It wa...
2022-10-26 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostAfter a good rest, the world had changed quite a bit. Looking from above, we could see that the surging levels of Wild Magic had stabilised, effectively turning the valley below into a quite lethal...
2022-10-25 16:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostAs the giant Yeti died, power surged through the glacier, flooding the entire valley. It was a wild mix of Astral Power, enough to turn visible to the naked eye, to say nothing of our special sight...
2022-10-24 15:48:32 +0000 UTC View PostGiven that the small Yeti, for a given value of small, were again charging in our direction, Ylva and I started to retreat. Without the cover of the mist, we couldn’t conceal ourselves any longer...
2022-10-23 15:44:27 +0000 UTC View PostMoments after the first Yeti died, it started to dissipate into Astral Power, a disgusting mix of tainted power that made me nauseous to my core. I could easily identify the base types of it, Ice, ...
2022-10-22 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostThe glacier housing the Nexus was eerily silent. Dense fog turned the visibility to nearly zero and a cold wind swept through it at all times. How the fog could linger, despite the wind, I had no c...
2022-10-21 16:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostIt was quite amusing, travelling through the Mountains of Ice was just as dangerous as travelling through the elven realm, maybe even more so. The elven forest had required us to conceal ourselves ...
2022-10-20 16:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostLooking at our chosen mountain from the air, I felt even better than before. Lenore was carrying me in my Hallow, as the sun was still shining and thus there were no shadows for me to step into at ...
2022-10-19 16:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostIt almost felt odd, putting my feet back on the ground after five days of constant flight. After we had destroyed the dryad and the forest around her burrow, the three of us had decided that landin...
2022-10-18 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostWith a step into the shadows, I disappeared from the area devastated by the Nidhögg’s flames. Everything I had planned to accomplish was done and I had even gained a point in Darkness-magic from...

2022-10-16 16:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostLetting the Darkness around me dissipate a little, I let myself sink down to the ground. While the aftermath of the Nidhögg’s devastation wasn’t as welcoming and homely as the frozen wastes le...

2022-10-14 21:11:25 +0000 UTC View Post“There seems to be nothing around here,” Lenore mused, her mental voice filled with disbelief. I could empathize with her, seeing the massive tree and the empty meadow around it didn’t invoke...
2022-10-14 16:00:16 +0000 UTC View Post“How exhausted are you?” I asked Ylva, knowing that she had to be running on fumes by now. She had fought just as hard as Lenore and I had and now she was even carrying me to safety.
