Abby, that’s a ghost, right?

She was dressed more casually as well, though still in a more eastern-looking style.

Very minor thing, but I noticed the other day when I was going through my notes that Elise actually has three classes in the mornings, not two as has been shown in the recent few chapters. It's not hugely important to the story, but I will be ...
2025-10-04 07:04:14 +0000 UTC View PostAbby, is it normal for dungeons to be buried like this?
“No, but it really depends on where the core spawns. In this case, it seems to have spawned in a place where a burrowing animal lived, and the animal took it into its burrow before eating it.”
I see. Is it sa...

I forgot to mention this, but a couple of you guys commented about the Infiltrator Quest starting at 10 days, but then being 5 days in the next chapter. 5 days is correct. It was 10 days in my first draft, and I changed it, but apparently missed that i...

At first, the twins seem pretty normal. They’re identical girls—well, women, since they’re 21, but they’re younger than me, so that makes them girls—and they wear big billowy robes with big witch hats. They’re pretty, I guess (though not as pretty as me), and with natural platinum blo...
