[B2] Chapter 3 - Level of control

“What is it?” Fay asked sleepily.  “I thought the dead were far behind us?”  I checked on Glimpse and found him circling along our backtrail keeping track of the gradually dispers...

[B2] Chapter 2 - Draw up a list, check it twice

I woke up - no, this wasn’t reality.  Or even the surreal, possibly-a-coma-dream world of Urth I’d grown to accept as my new normal.  I was back in Aresk’s realm but this time I cou...

[B2} Chapter 1 - Stop moping around!

Level 70

Body:  C-   Mind:  C-  Souls: SS

That was a lot of Souls.  I suppressed the urge to giggle like Scr...

Chapter 63 - Holy moly

Having shouted myself hoarse rallying my cavalry to reform outside the Areskyn encampment I ran back and forth chivvying along the more bloodthirsty stragglers.  It took ten painful minutes as...

Chapter 62 - Betrayal

I took off across the kilometre or so of grassland that separated me from my wife and my warriors in a sprint the likes of which would make Olympians weep in jealousy.  Each step threw me forw...

Chapter 61 - Fine then. Fists!

Seen from above the festival site lacked something.  It was impressive in scope, don’t get me wrong but it just looked like a low hill surrounded by concentric rings of upright stones. ...

Chapter 60 - What fresh madness is this?

AUTHORS NOTE:

I'm extending the General tier to 18 chapters ahead of RR :)

Thanks very much for your support!

Chapter 59 - That’s pretty disgusting, bloke.

Vilis Humano slain x37.

One thousand eight hundred and fifty Souls gathered.

I was crouched down near the last and largest camp of th...

Chapter 58 - No shortie could do this!

I ran north with bare feet.  The cold was uncomfortable, as were the occasional jagged stones, but it wasn’t painful and it didn’t do me any harm.  Whether it was my strength stat or ...

Chapter 57 - Barefoot King

“I cannot believe you aren’t wearing shoes!  The ground is still frozen for Aresk’s sake!”  Fay grumbled good naturedly as we walked from Mondit to the pass hand in hand.  I ...

Chapter 56 - Levels and loot

“So what’s the final tally?” I asked Trikilo.  His savage grin looked sinister in the dancing firelight.  It had taken three days for us to round up the Kopregyn herds and bring the...

Chapter 55 - War, huh.

Looking down from Glimpse’s perspective, at first glance this seemed like it would go very badly for us.  My sixty chariots held the central position flanked by fifty lancers at either end o...

Chapter 54 - The bright side

“And this is what they do?” I asked Kril in icy horror.  It had been two weeks since we sent the Koprigyn emissary packing and they had finally made their move.

“Koprigyn are savag...

Chapter 53 - Damsels in distress

“Step forward,” I called from my chair.  Fay was sitting next to me on her own wearing a stern expression on her face that looked almost comical to me.  She was usually either joking,...

Chapter 52 - Just as red as this one

Two weeks had passed in a happy blur.  The hides were cured and those that weren’t being immediately converted into simple saddles were packed onto wagons in anticipation of our move north t...

Chapter 51 - That word again

We didn’t catch the name of the new Dreamer from Areskit as we bounced and shook our way past the horse archers who wheeled about to follow in our wake.  Glimpse had circled down and landed ...

Release update

Hey all,

Welcome and thank you to the new subscribers, hope you enjoy the story!

I've just hit the main RS page on RR so I'm going to step up releases for this week and probably do anot...

Chapter 50 - Schrodinger's Wizard

“And you didn’t see him at all?” asked Jagapan, fixing me with his mismatched stare.  We were back in his tent and in addition to Kril and my Fangs we were joined by Sulk, his wife Kayla...

Chapter 49 - No one will know

Grell smirked at me in reply.  Crow's feet marred the otherwise smooth olive skin around his eyes and he held out his right hand.  A ball of orange fire appeared floating above it.  ...

Chapter 48 - I’ve never met a wizard before

“Does this place smell bad to you?” I asked Kril as we walked into the town.  I nodded to the guards who gave me wary looks in reply.  Kril took a deep sniff and shook his head.

Chapter 47 - Being brash

We travelled quickly to Jagarnit.  We stopped to make camp twice on the way and I spent the evenings giving instruction on unarmed and short blade fighting as well as giving lectures on what I...

Chapter 46 - “The power”

I awoke alone which surprised me into sitting bolt upright.  I scanned around my empty tent and reached out to Glimpse but he was currently devouring every scrap of meat he could find that had...

Chapter 45 - Aresk blesses this union

Kril accelerated our chariot ahead of the slowly moving wagons.  Two more of the rickety seeming vehicles sped up to pace us as we raced north towards Mondit.

“What’s the rush?” I ...

Chapter 44- Split the herds

I resumed my usual place on the now red stained stone flags.  Another beast was led in and I put my wrist under its chin as usual, blade a centimetre from its throat.  

“For ...

Chapter 43 - Glimpse

The animals were led in one at a time.  A pair of ropes had been slung across the stone slab and once the beast was in position it was hoisted off the ground slightly.  They must have dru...

Chapter 42 - God-marked

I explained what I wanted in terms of saddles and stirrups to my new crafters.  They caught on quickly but seemed to doubt my sanity.

“But why?  The horses won’t like it! You’...

Chapter 41 - Still thinking with the wrong spear!

Hakubin rode forwards with his mounted escort and stopped halfway between our warbands.  While he had the numbers I wasn’t worried about it coming to an actual fight.  We still had plen...

Chapter 40 - It speaks well of your character

“She’ll be safe?” I insisted the next morning.  Kril seemed exasperated with me: we were meant to be discussing the concept of stirrups.  He had a basic grasp of the idea but withou...

Chapter 39 - Cowards words!

Myself, Mune, Jandak and Kril walked back to the camp while the rest of our group slumped on the back of the chariots for the final leg of the journey home.  I got the feeling I would have to ...
