Tsaimath

Chapter 180

During the evening all of us kept relatively quiet, occupied with our own thoughts. What I did, however, was asking Drega for the blessing she had used the last time, which she spoke o...

Scarlet - Chapter 35

Scarlet relaxed, stretched out on her bunk, watching the other two women in the room through Crysna’s eyes. She suppressed a smile, seeing them almost petrified, like mouses before a...

Scarlet - Chapter 34

Upon entering Albertina, Scarlet instantly felt a familiar feeling settle between her shoulders, almost like an itch that she couldn’t scratch or shake. That itch that prodded her to...

Scarlet - Chapter 33

A low moan sounded in the forest, with nobody around to hear. What was it that made those horrifying sounds, was it a tortured ghost, was it a tortured soul? Or was it a young woman, s...

Scarlet - Chapter 32

Three days after leaving the Sparkle behind, Scarlet was wondering if she had chosen the right path. Navigating had been a little challenging, but on the other hand, she had managed to...

Chapter 179

We managed to get back to Kolyug in the early evening, just as dusk was settling in. During the day, I had given a rough explanation of my weakness but I didn’t go into detail. Adra was still sce...

Scarlet - Chapter 31

Once again, Scarlet woke due to the light filtering through the leaves of the tree she had been sleeping in. During the night, she had been awake for quite some time, looking up, into ...

Scarlet - Chapter 30

Over the next two days, Scarlet followed the small stream she had decided to call Sparkle, after realising that Crystal might cause misunderstandings, considering the monsters were cal...

Scarlet - Chapter 29

Scarlet was startled back to wakefulness, not quite knowing where, who or why she was. Even just the concept of thinking needed a moment to emerge in her head but the process of waking...

Chapter 178

It was late morning, we had been travelling for maybe two hours after breakfast and according to our plans, we should reach Kolyug some time in the late afternoon, unless something une...

Scarlet - Chapter 28

Scarlet had been walking for some time, maybe half an hour, when she felt comfortable stopping and orienting herself. She hadn’t felt the pulses for ten minutes and felt them go past...

Chapter 177

When I woke up the next morning and let my hand roam over my head, I noticed that I had started to regrow my hair, maybe a centimeter or two, over the night. My first reaction was glee...

Scarlet - Chapter 27

Walking off, Scarlet heard a soft snicker behind her, coming from one of the people washing in the river. She ignored it, knowing that there was no point, she had ground to cover befor...

Scarlet - Chapter 26

Outside, back in the sun, Scarlet felt herself calm some more, as if she had just left the den of a vicious beast. She wasn’t quite sure why she had been so disturbed by the Doctor�...

Scarlet - Chapter 25

The Doctor and Scarlet came back into the main-room, where the other three newcomers an Aida were waiting for them. Aida handed the Doctor a folded-up paper and stepped back, out of th...

Chapter 176

We were fleeing. Not that the others would have called it that, but to me, it was flight, plain and simple. After telling Sigmir that we needed to get away, she had, once again, simply...

Chapter 175

“Morgana?... Morgana?!” I heard Adra call from outside, so Sigmir and I quickly left the bear’s cave and joined her.

“What’s wrong?” I asked, curious. She had wanted ...

Scarlet - Chapter 24

Scarlet took the list from the Doctor and started reading. The entries started simple, with a ten-day box of ration bars for two credits, continued with survival gear, a tent for twent...

Chapter 174

When Sigmir grabbed me, she frantically started to pat and lightly slap my head, before carrying me over to a patch of snow that had yet to be molten, and throwing me into the snow hea...

Scarlet - Chapter 23

Somehow, seeing Albertina again was both uplifting and depressing to Scarlet. Last night, the two of them had camped on another clearing, before continuing their way south, keeping the...

Chapter 173

After the fiery explosion caused by the bear had lit up the area behind me, I turned just in time to see Adra step out of the forest behind the bear and, while the bear was starting to...

Scarlet - Chapter 22

The two women continued on their way, Scarlet looking for trouble and ways to improve her power. For an hour and a half, they used the sun to keep their direction, adjusting for passin...

Scarlet - Chapter 21

It was morning when Scarlet decided to wake Keera, after her own watch had passed without anything happening. She had taken the time to probe her abilities a little more, getting a bet...

Chapter 172

Adra and Kelgorn looked around the burned-out area, soon finding bear-tracks leading towards and into it, making them agree that the power Adra and I were feeling from the cave was our...

Scarlet - Chapter 20

 AN: Hey guys and gals. I'd love it if you could give me some feedback for Scarlet, both the fiction and the Character. 

Knowing that she had been handed an opportunity to ...

Scarlet - Chapter 19

Once Scarlet had herself back under control and the monstrous bird had vanished into the distance, she looked over to Keera, realising that the other had taken the influence better tha...

Scarlet - Chapter 18

‘Ultimately,’ Scarlet thought in the evening, ‘it was the right call to stay here, in the area.’

The day had been unpleasant for Keera and her, the reality of Verdun full...

Chapter 171

Hunting in the woods around Kolyug was not as interesting as I would have hoped. The game was basically the same we had hunted further north, with levels mostly between thirty and fift...

Scarlet - Chapter 17

When Scarlet first woke, grumbled and stumbled off, Keera felt it was funny, the previously highly competent and controlled pixie had been turned into a coffee-zombie. Just what would ...

Scarlet - Chapter 16

Keera had little fun during her night watch. Sleeping on the hard ground had not been restful, her body was sore and aching all over and her mind was calling for a real bed in which sh...
