The trip to Ashiok’s tribe had been uneventful.
Two days at a rather sedate pace that left Ash feeling tied down and slow.
Or at least, a sedate pace for Ash.
While he and his group could run for extreme distances, Ashiok’s people could not. The distance they covered was inc...

An unassigned Golem in the shape of a small monkey trundled away quickly from the group. Before anyone could grab it and throw it into a storage device.
“Ashley, do forgive me, but I’m just not suited to combat with beasts,” pleaded Siu, moving in close to his back. He felt a cool han...

The Qi-Lord was worthless.
Absolutely, perfectly, totally, worthless.
Seconds after Rou had cut them free then they were off and running. Stumbling down the road back toward the camp at the base of the prison.
Trailing behind them stomach acids and what looked a lot like semi-di...

Ash summoned two butterfly-swords from his Qi-Sea and formed them from his Qi directly as he and the gigantic rat closed in on one another.
They expanded within a flash and were near duplicates of his original butterfly swords.
Though even better.
These Qi swords fit his hands i...

Ash looked around after arriving in the camp.
It smelt far worse than it’d looked from above.
Glancing over his shoulder he could see Moira above them. Circling slowly as she scanned the surroundings for them.
Even now, Ash found it hard to truly understand the height of the p...

In the two days after they’d taken over the facility, they’d had very few visitors.
The other ships that’d come up to the portal had left.
Ren had also left and was currently spreading the news about the new changes that were coming, as well as the goal to make the whole prison ...

Ash chuckled as Chunhua continued to march a group of Cultivators across the square to where he stood.
They were very unhappy with the two choices they’d been given.
Move to the realm below, or back into the prison and understand that the Sheng Alliance would be taking ownership of ...

Xiuying was like a butterfly in a cage. Moving around the room quickly and just about bouncing off the walls.
Zipping from one side to the other and back again.
Trying to find a way out and not really responding to anything.

Rushing along yet another corridor, Ash was incredibly lost.
Beyond lost, honestly.
Xiuying seemed to be completely unconcerned with it and was still excitedly moving along. Shooting down corridors as soon as they appeared and not hesitating at all.
The sound of three pairs of b...

Looking to the rapidly approaching ceiling of the prison, Ash was nervous.
There was a large opening in the ceiling that looked as if it didn’t belong there. A gash in the ceiling that had the appearance of something blowing outward.
As if a bomb had gone off in fact.
Bits of ...

The Knight at the center of the square casually dodged to the side, only moving their torso and twisting away at the same time. The enchanted sword had passed by without even touching him.
Leaving behind a whining noise given the strength it’d been thrust with.

Ren stood there, hands on hips, and looking imperiously beautiful.

Stifling a yawn, Ash looked up to the air-ship that was coming down toward him.
It was flanked by four others, surprisingly.
All of them showed some signs of damage though.
One even had a hole in the side easily fifteen feet wide.
Ash looked to those with him.

Ash had been sat here in this small room for the better part of a month.

The last of which had been named without his input, though he understood it.

Locke collapsed into the couch, groaned, and then leaned into the arm of it. Her breathing wasn’t very steady and she was still somewhat red faced.
Ash had been eager to get her into the bed and hadn’t let her out of it for a time. He had no regrets of what he did to her, or with her.

Ash watched Ghast’s air-ship move off into the sky quickly.
