2022-12-20 23:57:24 +0000 UTC View PostHump spotted Luna through the carriageway window as he descended the cliff. Even out of her priestess robes, her blonde hair stood out from the crowd. She was with a slightly older woman—no doubt...
2022-12-17 22:10:32 +0000 UTC View PostHump raised the idea of joining Marcela’s squad with the rest of the party that evening. It was no surprise when they agreed. Which meant, if Graham’s artifact was a success, in a week’s time...

2022-11-20 01:10:20 +0000 UTC View PostAn aspect of this chapter was a bit out of my usual ballpark for writing, but I was pleased with how it turned out! I'm pretty sure you'll know when you get to it lol.
