A Novel Approach chapter 63
The returning contestants took longer than expected to get back, so they ended up pushing the feast back until the night after. I spent that whole evening with my wife, and then the next day, after stockpiling my wishes, I went to see Benny. I hadn’t checked in with my friend beyond our greetin...

She wilted a bit at my question, but shook it off quick. “I’m SO sorry,” she said emphatically. “That was…I’ve never had that happen before. My bloodlust usually doesn’t surge like that, and you...
2025-01-24 21:38:02 +0000 UTC View PostMy normal style, at least recently, had involved a lot of head on combat. Explosive charges and big flashy explosive battles. But after my earlier epiphany, I started to analyze my behavior a bit more. I realized that I had better tools for combat than just burst strength. As useful as that was w...
2025-01-23 23:32:00 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the ceremony, we had a meeting set up with the elders, but since Daysia and I were some of the first back, we had some time to kill before things actually ended. Hours if not days, depending, so I decided to take my new staff for a test drive.
First though, In wanted to show it off. I...
2025-01-22 21:53:35 +0000 UTC View PostWe made good time returning to the mother tree. Aside from Archie knowing to be careful, Daysia was much stronger now, her link to her tree granting her new powers, and the life fire didn’t overwhelm her as much. By the time we landed she mostly just seemed extra energetic, but even that might ...

The lemur king had driven him back and the two of them had exploded into fierce combat again, with the lemur king slowly luring away his enemy.<...

2025-01-21 00:02:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe difference between using my Goetia forms with and without a staff was stark. The smoothness of my motions, the speed, the explosive power. They were all incomparable to what I could manage with my fists, and that became obvious to the lemur as soon as the staff smacked into my palm.
The...

Alright folks, thats the end. I like to finish stories open ended, leading into possible sequels. This one might get one eventually, might not. As of Monday, I'll begin posting my new Young Justice story (harem heroic protag, gamer but very slow burn power wise, with lots of crafting) on here, mi...
2025-01-17 20:55:32 +0000 UTC View PostThe lemur was looking at me. This one was smaller than the king, with copper colored fur and piercing amber eyes. The knives it was resting lightly on the ground were wickedly curved and jagged along the inner hook of the blade, with the outside sharpened to a razor’s edge. The most absurd thin...
2025-01-17 00:40:53 +0000 UTC View PostI was prepared for the deluge of information that hit me when I activated Murmur.. With Callie as a backup just in case, especially using Piece of Mind, I was more than up to the challenge of handling the avalanche of stimuli.
One of the adjustments I’d made when creating this particular ...

Final farewells, one more chapter left
2025-01-15 23:59:33 +0000 UTC View PostDaysia, it turned out, WAS looking for a partner. Despite seeming incredibly shy and anxious, the daisy haired Dryad was extremely enthusiastic about working together. “I’m so happy not to have to do this alone,” she gushed. “I’ve never been very speed oriented. I’m a Tree Singer, and...
2025-01-15 00:05:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe difference in atmosphere during my communion and the others was pretty stark. When they went up there was lots of laughing and muttering, good natured teasing for people these Drayds had known for years. When I was announced though, everything went dead quiet, and the whole vibe became much h...

Two more chapters left on this one
2025-01-14 00:03:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day I made my scrolls, bringing my total to sixty four, then took a long shower and got dressed and ready for the opening ceremony. After so long on Rackham I’d gotten used to taking my time doing things, but I knew that with the succession war only ten months away I needed to buckle d...

One was similar to the reason most people didn’t follow a god’s Path after they had taken it if they wanted to advance/. Sharing your renown with an entire species was a bad way to get lots of attention. Another was because it made creating ...

2025-01-08 21:32:42 +0000 UTC View PostThe Ordolon Oak was a particularly lovely building. One of the roots of a large tree that formed a city/ I’d been expecting all the root buildings to be pretty similar, but I was impressed by how intricate and personalized each of the buildings was. The wood had been shaped into gorgeous relief...
