Chapter 24
Simply walking toward the stand of trees in the distance wasn’t quite the stroll in the park that Thaden had hoped for. Not more than 100 feet from where he’d taken control of the Beezards, his army was attacked by 3 giant Mutated Beezard Warriors that seemed to float...

Walking through the dungeon entrance was as strange as it always was, though he certainly wasn’t expecting what ended up being on the other side. Based on the underground location, he had figured that the dungeon would be based around caves or dark spaces, but he was al...

The area around Teglir was interesting because, at first glance, it didn’t seem like it could sustain as many Adventurers that operated out of the city. The immediate area, for approximately 50 miles around, was pretty much all cleared land that had functional farm fiel...

Thaden dug into his breakfast with gusto, the food better than he expected for a buffet-style format in the Coalition’s dining area. It made sense for the food to be made in mass quantities like it was given the sheer amount of Adventurers filling the massive cafeteria-...

“Thank you. I really appreciate you working with me on this.”
Thaden had been surprised to learn that the Teglir Branch Leader of the Adventurer’s Coalition was only Diamond Badge Rank, as he expected her to have at least Platinum, if not Platinum+ like his ow...

The release of The Affinity Collector went pretty well! Now that it's done I can finally focus on finishing the rest of Healer Arc 2, which I'm hoping to have completed by the end of January. I'm approximately halfway done with it, so it's definitely possible :)

Thaden had visited the cities that had been created on the developmental world of Tarth, and at the time, he had considered them fairly massive when compared to the various towns that dotted the Region that he’d ended up in. Unlike those cities, which apparently only ha...
