Chapter 182 - Void

I wasn’t a total moron, of course. I didn’t trust this woman as far as I could throw her. Even if…that was probably farther than I would expect, if I engaged Sylvan Vigor&nbs...

Chapter 181 - Unexpected Break

Before heading off to dinner with Renauld, we let him stop by a local bathhouse in order to freshen up. Hard days of battle and marching had left the Gnoll looking and smelling a bit…rank, to be ...

Chapter 180 - Weaponry & Returns

Things were changing in Elderwyck.

For both the city, and us.

The General in charge of the Loyalist forces in the city had wised up to the fact that his soldiers were being targeted. At...

Chapter 179 - The Gift

I tried to put the odd encounter with Bleddyn’s cousin out of my mind during my shift at Jason’s. Thanks to the nature of Ringed Mind, it was pathetically easy for me to nearly...

Chapter 178 - Rhiannon

AN: This is…

Well, a very important character. For a lot of reasons.

I didn’t know anyone named Rhiannon. And I had definitely...

Chapter 177 - Surprise Visit

I stood at attention in front of Hook’s desk in the main Nocturne Divisions safehouse here in Elderwyck as much as decorum demanded I did.

Which was, considering the average Agent, not very...

Chapter 176 - Searching the Horizon

We each split up not long after, engaging our individual stealth Skills as we did so. This wasn’t a group mission, per se, despite our meeting up before starting.

We were all just acting in...

Chapter 175 - Unexpected Reunions

What the hell was she doing here?

The last I had heard from Bella, she was sailing away from the docks at Sancthaven all those months ago. She had told me she was making for the...

Chapter 174 - Magical Brews [Vol. 5 Start]

I took a slow breath in, holding my concentration. I’d been challenging myself recently to do this with only my newer golden hand instead of my flesh one. The process was a bit clumsier with the ...

Chapter 173 - Tithed [Vol. 4 End]

Well, this was a fantastic start to our infiltration.

After the Tlatecian Orc guard had, somehow, immediately known that a group of people were entering the city from the back entran...

Chapter 172 - Bona Fide Relics

“Oh…,” Tlazo said, visibly enraptured. “I had absolutely no idea that such interesting events had been occurring on the surface.”

It hadn’t taken the apparently supr...

Chapter 171 - Gambling

“I assure you, you’re in no danger here,” The owner of the voice said nonchalantly before pausing. “Well, as long as you do nothing foolish, of course.” They amended.

Chapter 170 - Fading Trail

I only had seconds to react, but thank God for Ringed Mind.

Split-second decisions were what it was good for.

I lunged for Sylvia as the ground began to fall beneath us...

Interlude 10 - Burning Hels

The plains before the southern outer wall of Helstein teemed with an endless, roiling horde of monsters. They stretched out as far as the eye could see, even with a high Perception Virtue. Under th...

Chapter 169 - Battle in the Dark

“Whisper, with me,” Hook said lowly, maneuvering himself into the combat stance I’d seen from him so many times in training. “Hangman, Dusk. You take the rear. And remember…aim for the he...

Chapter 168 - Ruinous Haunts

The light from Sylvia’s Skill was dim, but it still allowed me to see the hallway around us as we descended. Thankfully, Hook and Dusk hadn’t gone very far. I would have been pretty pissed off ...

Chapter 167 - Down, Down, Down...

“Wait wait wait,” I said uneasily as I hurried after the forms of Dusk and Hook. After our meeting in the tavern, we'd left immediately without resting in order to get into the city as quick as...

Chapter 166 - Dusky Doubts

As Hook, Sylvia, and I slowly slipped our way through the gathered crowds of refugees, I couldn’t help but notice the atmosphere out here.

It was, in a word, bad.

Which, no shit.

Chapter 165 - Walls and Gates

The direction that Hook had led us to the Duchy of Elderwyck hadn’t been on one of the main roads in Herztal. We had primarily been taking game trails, and when that didn’t work, going over lan...

Chapter 164 - Lost Rendezvous

Now that we had horses, Hook wanted to push them harder in order to reach Elderwyck quicker. The normally more even-tempered dwarf seemed to have a strange dislike for the equines, even if it was a...

Chapter 163 - Farewells

Fade and I ended up sitting on that hill all night, simply staring off into the distance at Elys. By the time she began to sink below the horizon, I was pretty sure I knew what his answer was going...

You know, I was looking through the planned arcs for this book and realized that it's going to be the longest by far before I get to volume 5. The current word count for volume 4 could po...

Chapter 159 - Unexpected Boon

Elder Einion and Gruffyd didn’t keep me for very long, in the small side room they had led me to. After all, there really wasn’t all that much that I could expand on. Not without getting into s...

Chapter 156 - Side-Quest

The gathered forces moved out, almost directly after Hook’s dramatic announcement. Which made sense, when you thought about it. We were still in the lands where the Loyalists had set off what Hoo...

Chapter 155 - Regrouping
