Cauldron
Alexandria stepped through the floating portal into the clean, almost sterile meeting room inside the Cauldron Compound. It was a familiar room, one where she met with her peers at least once a week, usually more, as they desperately put out fires that sprouted up across the Eart...

We dropped out of hyperspace at our deployment point a day and a half later. Once there, we quickly organized our fleet. My team, as well as Corvak's team and Lieutenant Rider's clone crew, were all riding inside the Chariot, so we piled into the ship. Most of our passengers stayed in ha...

So, eventually (not necessarily the next time) Connor will come into enough cash to start upgrading the HQ on the Horizon world. The general rule (as of now) is that each extra HQ will have various standard upgrades and one unique. Horizon world unique upgrade is allowing the purchase and ownersh...

We ended up staying on Nirn long enough to watch 4th Group leave for their mission with the Rebels, though not through any sort of plan or choice. Ahsoka and I personally saw our friends off, before heading back home to enjoy some downtime before starting to look for our next mission. 4th g...

Once I finally decided I wanted to purchase the market building before the grow house, I quickly added the structure to the tablet interface's cart. The fact that I was buying these things like I would something from Amazon was endlessly surreal, especially when moments later, Maxwell held out a ...

Over the next two days, I built four more starships, each more technologically advanced than the one before. With this strategy, I managed to leapfrog through the starship branches, making considerable progress toward the higher-tier ships. I consistently switched back and forth between civilian ...

Waking up the following morning was like waking up after a long case of the flu, only to find that the mental fog and daze had finally passed. Except in this case, the fog had been around for my entire life, and now I could see past it, through it, like it never existed in the first place.

Hello Everyone! As I said, Grammarly has failed once again, but I can't delay posting forever, so here is the rough draft. Note there is no PDF, that will be included in the final, which will replace this once Grammarly decides to fix their product. Please, those of you who usually post correctio...

Hello everyone! Lately I have been toying with the idea of loosening Jackson distaste for creating living, sapient beings, not to necessarily expand the main cast because that's already to big, but to flesh out his growing group with "Citizens."

As we feared, it took an unfortunately long time for the hermit group to reach back out to us, with an entire day and morning passing before we heard from them again. Thankfully, they did not contact us just to say that there was no deal and that we should fuck off, which was honestly already bet...

After transferring everyone over to the HQ, since I had no plans to upgrade the barracks within the next few days, we settled in to give my new soldiers an in-depth briefing. It took about an hour to get them filled in, during which I began to notice just how simple and incomplete they were. They...

While I was eager to test out my new weapon, Kali would be very cross with me if I started vaporizing trees and boulders like a maniac.

Hello everyone! Its interlude time! I'm going to break the chapter up into two parts, one from a POV I've already chosen, and one you guys get to choose.
Keep in mind, due to there being no post on Monday the 13th, it may take some time for this interlude to come out!

It took me about nine hours in total to complete the alchemy station in its entirety.
