2024-06-29 12:19:16 +0000 UTC View PostThe moment we stepped out into the wind and snow, we lost the ability to communicate except for vague hand gestures. I’d opted to make this trip as Silver, after first finding Charles as Kaia to ...
2024-06-29 01:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostI was still thinking about the enchantment walking staff as we left the workshop. It hadn’t done anything when I played around with the finished metal engraving. Not even when I sang at it, which...

2024-06-23 01:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe cop car I’d just eviscerated with two hundred and eleven bullets was only the first. Dozens more were hurtling up from behind as the civilian traffic desperately pulled aside in an attempt no...
2024-06-20 01:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe morning after returning from our trip, I headed to the workshop. Snow covered everything, and only thin paths had been shovelled out. April's forge, at least, appeared to be free of snow… unt...
2024-06-20 01:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostIt took us around the same amount of time to get back from the quarry to Edgewood, but that was because we had to stop singing for a day due to the cold air of the eternal winter—it was like razo...

2024-06-05 01:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostWe got permission to go on the trip, but then we spent four days waiting for ‘Silver’ to show up so she could be asked to help. Silver, of course, did not show up. The Captain was hesitant to l...
