Chapter 7
Thaden didn’t necessarily believe in providence by some higher power, but he did believe in his own Fortuity. To that affect, he wasn’t too surprised that 30,000 in the stat—with his solo-based gear now reequipped—made itself known when the two closest NESTs near the...

Despite the distance from where he’d landed to where The Citadel used to be being quite a trek, only about 100 monsters met their end while Thaden ran back to The Citadel. He supposed that made sense because he hadn’t gone out of his way to hunt them down; the ones that ...

It's now all done, so there shouldn't be too many other obstacles in the way of writing the rest of the week!)

2025-06-13 21:16:39 +0000 UTC View Post(A long one today, as it's nearly twice the length of a normal chapter. I didn't want to break it up, however, which was why I didn't have a longer Chapter 3 -- sorry for the cliffhanger yesterday!)

NEST #3823 subjugation complete!
Chapter 3
The tunnel leading further underground reminded Thaden of the many dungeons that he’d delved throughout the Region, if only at its most basic level. The winding passageway led to multiple larger caves, each of which contained Gorillum of higher Levels than the ones he’d ...

Missing his destroyed Wyvern’s Flight Cloak, which would’ve made the trip a whole lot easier, Thaden leapt over the small hillock in front of him as he tore across the landscape of the Wildlands. When he landed a few seconds later, he could see the ruins of a town in the...

“What an absolute disaster.”
Fer’la’vina could only nod in agreement with Che’ga’lera as her feet touched down on the edge of the Stronghold, set high above the Wildlands in an unassailable position. Turning around and using every bit of her now-restored Le...

I finally have the cover for my new story! I ended up naming it The Lone Keeper, as it seemed like it encapsulated what Bax is in the book. I haven't decided whether or not to change the name of subsequent books or simply add a "2" and "3" to them, but I can decide that later.
My hope is...

Everyone ignored him as the Adventurers rushed to either the walls surrounding the city or took off outside of the gates before they closed. Bax followed the latter for a moment and no one remarked on his presence as he passed through gates that he had a feeling would be cl...

The gate guards gave Bax a look as he passed through, but again, they didn’t stop him. He halfway expected to be picked up again by more town guards when he entered, but thankfully there was no one waiting for him just past the walls, so he was free to explore in...

Quickly running around the immediate area inside the forest, streaking through the trees in a blur, Bax looked for any other monsters that might be near. After nearly a minute of running at full speed, out of sight of any Adventurers or the field workers, the only monster h...

No one accosted Bax as he left the same way he’d come into the building, though he did get some strange looks from the few other guards that were still in the “station”, as the Elf had called it. He had a feeling that they had gotten what they wanted out of him, so th...

It was almost painful to have to match his speed to the Party that had “rescued” him, as it seemed so slow to Bax, but it also gave him a chance to practice adjusting to those who couldn’t move as fast as he could. The last thing he wanted to do was arrive in town whi...
