Reality cracked.

The world splintered into infinite pieces. 

And at the center of it all stood a single man.  A primordial whose power knew no bounds.  In that split seco...

“That’...

Catharsis through healing.

Elijah often neglected his healing abilities, usually reserving them to mend his own wounds.  However, he couldn’t deny that focusing on the well-being of ot...

Bogotá was a city of contrast. 

That was abundantly clear as Elijah left his meeting with the Comisario and forged ahead into the settlement.  He’d seen the skyscrapers from afar...

Path of Dragons 9 - Chapter 38 - The Agony of Stillness

A bird rested upon Elijah’s shoulder while a two-tailed fox curled in his lap.  He ignored both, instead focusing entirely on the stillness within him.  His heart barely beat, he didn�...
