Shal stepped out of the teleporter and looked around. The buildings around him were solid and grey, and he stood in a small courtyard that was open to the sky. Yet when he looked up, his vision could pierce past the thick mist that lay over the area. It was soft like cotton, and different b...

When the storm wasn’t smashing them with enough thunder and lightning to knock their heading off from their goal, the monsters that Skarch expla...
2018-08-28 04:51:08 +0000 UTC View PostToday's chapters will come out tomorrow. I volunteered at a charity event, so I didn't have enough time to turn my outlines into chapters.
Also, great job so far on the contest! A lot of the submissions have made me audibly laugh.

Silo glanced sideways at Randidly, who stood at the bow of the boat with a dreadful look of concentration on his face. A thin bead of sweat formed and fell down his face.
Although Silo wasn’t sure what he was doing, he could tell the other man was stabilizing their boat somehow. Des...

It wasn’t until they were within sight of land that Randidly felt them. Of all locations, being on top of water was the most blinding for Randidly. There were minuscule plant life forms floating everywhere in water, but it appeared that either his Skill Level was too low or there was a ca...
2018-08-24 05:02:25 +0000 UTC View PostJust one chapter tonight. I need to do another big outline. There are a few plot lines I want to wrap up, and its not always best to just stumble across them and address them then.

Coughing, Randidly excited the Dungeon. He raised his hand and shaded the sun from his eyes. There was a brief moment of vertigo, but it quickly passed. A second later, Helen and Azriel came out behind him.
After taking a couple steps forward, Randidly turned around and smiled at them...
2018-08-22 05:12:29 +0000 UTC View PostIdk why, but I love when Randidly gets to be playful.
‘They are having us fight in this war for them, huh…’ Randidly thought to himself, considering the three people standing on the stage in front of them. After finishing their spiel and naming the teams,...
2018-08-22 05:10:31 +0000 UTC View PostImmediately, Randidly could tell that Helen’s patience was brought to the brink by simply listening to the back and forth between these two individuals. Her eyes became even more vicious as the man trying to enter into the city spoke again.
“Please… you know I earned my spot as a representat...

The next day, Randidly, Helen, and Azriel set out on their journey towards the Central Domain. This would be at least a week-long leg without teleporting and no one had the funds to swing all three of them. The representatives of the Western Domain would be departing by teleportation in a f...

Shal stood calmly with his hands behind his back. He was currently abreast with a stern woman with her grey hair shorn short. They both stood behind an aged and slim woman who sat at an ornate wooden table in a dimly lit room.
There were three other figures at the table.

After Azriel stated that she would not participate in the finals, Randidly stared at her for a long time. He supposed what she was saying made sense. Was he really so far removed from old Earth that he didn’t remember the hazard of injuries?
Not that he had been injured very often. ...
2018-08-20 06:30:23 +0000 UTC View PostI had this weird impulse to write something different, so I spent today working on something non-Rand to clear my mind. I will upload it for patrons probably next weekend, as payment for missing my one chap today.
But for now, I'll toy with the idea in my off days.
2018-08-19 04:23:27 +0000 UTC View PostNo chapters tonight.
But in other news, the next competition will start on the 25th of August. In addition, I also plan on releasing a few maps on that date.
I figure y'all would appreciate how I view the geography of Earth and Shal's world.
2018-08-17 03:46:52 +0000 UTC View PostOkay, okay, back to 6 or so chapters of Randidly programming after this.
The Lottery was a concept that Senator Firefly came up with to both encourage enrollment in the military and to give the lower classes in the Orchard a way to rise up. Even though it had...
2018-08-16 06:20:35 +0000 UTC View PostWell, it ended up being two long chapters about this character. And I really wanted to make it three to flesh out a bit more. But, I exercised restraint.

Drake scratched his chin. “I don’t get it. What am I going for?”

There were a few hours where Randidly was frantically using Plant Dominance to fish out and rescue the few spear users who were caught in the collapse of the wooden battlement. Then there were another few hours where the survivors of his squad and the reinforcements he received spread the w...

Once more, Randidly felt the Witch King pause as he rushed towards its back. It considered blocking Randidly, but it once again concluded it would be a waste. Its claw continued to rip towards Azriel. For her part, she used the combined time of those two hesitations to reposition her spear ...
2018-08-12 03:42:24 +0000 UTC View PostTwo on Saturday because I'll release the three Monday instead of Sunday. Going to Cedar Point tomorrow.
As Randidly grinned at his opponent, the thing grasped with its cold hands. Above him, a vicious claw condensed at such a speed that Randidly only had time to sw...
2018-08-12 03:40:11 +0000 UTC View PostUnrelated, sometimes I definitely think that Grammerly is taking a break as it looks through my stuff. It's a fickle program.

As Randidly understood it, the military on Tellus was divided into 5 ranks: Sergeant, Captain, Colonel, Field Marshal, and Auroch. These ranks each could have up to two Lieutenants as personal aides and controlled 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000, and 1,000,000 men respectively.

Even now, Helen found herself somewhat stumbling over how deep and green his eyes were. And when he was staring down over the shaft of a spear at you, the beauty of his eyes was insufficient to show through.
This was a man who had grown accustomed to violence. And Helen loved it.

On another note, I watched the Ready Player One movie this weekend. It reminded me why I create. It was... very cathartic after a long July. Hopefully August turns out better.

Real quick, I had three ideas for short storylines in our Earth interludes. Which of these is the most interesting? Or comment your own.
2018-08-03 16:10:29 +0000 UTC View PostWoo, 600 chapters. Remember, my goal is to finish in 200 chapters. So three fourths of the way done. Let's get to it, next in Shal's world.
