“Thank you,” Elissa told me after the meeting was done and the sky was darkening once again. The camp was in a tizzy with preparing the finishing touches for the battle to become. From pits to barricades, all to blunten the darkspawns’ charge. I made my own arrangements -- speaking to the R...
2023-01-27 18:39:18 +0000 UTC View Post"I don't suppose you'll tell me who you are?" Ciri questioned, looking at the raven haired woman, who seemed absolutely delighted at the sudden change of scenery. The fancy villa was gone, replaced with a rooftop in the heart of Novigrad, not far off from where Triss was staying. Which was not ex...

She slept with her back to it, usually seated up with her legs curled into her chest. The chair that was there was used as a footrest as she watched me get out of the shower with a towel wrap...
2023-01-23 16:09:06 +0000 UTC View Post“You fucking fucks!” Subject Zero snarled at me as I collapsed into a heap on the ground, purple energy surging around her hands.

2023-01-23 16:09:04 +0000 UTC View PostI squeezed the trigger, the gun bucking in my hand as the bullet bounced off a sharply angled wall, striking the ground, and still ripped through the kneecap of a man that was taking cover behind a concrete barricade. I heard him cry out, but through a camera, I saw him fall to the ground, clutch...
2023-01-23 16:09:02 +0000 UTC View PostMy location was near perfect. Pacifica was the worst part of Night City according to anyone, enough so that the Mayor of Night City was doing everything short of sawing the district off of the city and shoving it in the ocean to get rid of it. It was sparsely populated, especially in comparison t...

Someone was clearly in a mood typing this one up. Fortune cookies were probably the best bad cookie you could eat....

Her mom was covering her bruises up with makeup. She had gotten pretty good at it, Mary Jane reflected. The foundation matched her skin tone, and it covered...
2023-01-21 15:42:01 +0000 UTC View Post"We lost him," Clint informed Natasha as she stalked the room that was the focal point for all of Audacity's henchmen and the last known location of the man himself. "We aren't the only ones trained in the disappearing act -- seems like Audacity blended in with his men, and the moment we lost eye...

"It's located outside the city and it's right fuckin' dead in the hordes’ path. Get them all out. Kicking and screaming if you have to," I continued, sitting on a stump of a tree. A number had been felled t...
2023-01-20 15:50:57 +0000 UTC View Post“Fuck me,” I moaned, really wishing that I could remain asleep, but my brain wouldn’t turn off the moment everything clicked into place for me to wake up. I was on a rough hay bed and the cloth over it was itchy, so was the blanket that covered me. Those were far more distance concerns beca...

2023-01-20 15:50:53 +0000 UTC View PostThere were many types of fear, and over the course of my life I had become familiar with most of them.

2023-01-20 15:50:51 +0000 UTC View PostDespite the siege, it was decided by King Widukind that we would celebrate Yule to honor the gods, as thanks for the victories we had enjoyed so far. While we couldn't make wreaths, we had everything else we needed to celebrate -- animals to sacrifice, and Yule logs that were carved out of buildi...
2023-01-18 15:57:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe meeting concluded not long after the reveal that we were dealing with an entirely separate Frankish Army. King Widukind acted composed, but there was an edge of franticness in his actions that betrayed how flatfooted he was caught. How off guard all of us were taken. We were sworn to secrecy ...
2023-01-18 15:56:59 +0000 UTC View PostThe charge was absolutely devastating. There was simply no other word that could hope to convey the effect that the cavalry charge had on the unprepared back of the army.

2023-01-16 15:56:00 +0000 UTC View PostRadovid was the only other king that Guts had ever seen, and however begrudgingly, he could admit that he was more impressive than the king of Midland.
