The slight shaking of Sigmir’s gait combined with the warmth and the feeling of security in her embrace must have lulled me to sleep for I was woken after the sun had started to peek through the clouds in the next morning. Both, Sigmir and Adra told me that they had kept a good pac...

Jongarn’s chamber was similarly laid out as his father’s. A long bed dominating the room with a closet and a chest placed against the walls. Whispering, I explained Sigmir what Lenore suggested and we entered the room. I was looking for hair and Sigmir was looking for something h...

With the door open, Sigmir, Adra and I sneaked in, looking around the room after quickly closing the door, a cold draft would be a telling signal for anyone feeling it that something was wrong. We were in a large front-room, something I would call a saloon, sitting-room or main-room,...

Aaaah, that hits the spot. Now, where was I? Oh, right, the journey of the Korbal and their fight against the Dark Queen.
As I told you, the Korbal did not join the assault on the Gate of Tears, they moved on a hard and arduous route, circumventing it. They did so, knowing that...

After I had enveloped the nymph in her shadow-cocoon, it took a few moments for her to realise her situation, that something strange was going on. At first, she didn’t quite parse what was going on and was talking into the void but there was no sound, no echo, if I didn’t make mi...

When the fighting was done, I asked Sigmir and Adra to take care of the corpses, it would be sad if we wasted the preparation they had already done in the camp, so we would take it over. In addition, I wanted to get my four volunteer-subjects dealt with. I ignored the messages of exp...

The camp we had found was surprisingly normal. In my mind, there was this image of dryads and nymphs, dwelling in the forest, one with nature and its creatures, frolicking around naked, all that jazz. The idea was slightly influenced by the images presented under the banner of a cert...

On our way to Adernas, we had to camp out another night. By now, I was more than just a little annoyed. Rai, the young beastman, was displaying an infuriating mix of arrogance, child-like innocence and cowardice. He had yet to speak to either Adra or me, let alone thank either of us for som...

We made our camp within the protected enclosure provided by the evergreens and waited for the beastman to wake up. Sigmir had looked him over and guessed that he was a youth, maybe fifteen winters old, as she put it.
During the night, we put up a watch, feeling a need to have someone ...

The dead forest around Tegi was even more eerie than I had thought when looking at the video. Not only were the trees dead or twisted, there was no life in sight. Nothing at all. The strange feeling I had when Tegi was still in existence was gone, it was possible that the miasma had been fu...
