Chapter 758 - Sun Palace

Zeke didn’t bother telling anyone else where he was going.  If anyone in the tower needed him, which was unlikely, they could talk to Eveline.  She could probably solve any issues herself, and if not, there was always someone else to step up.  After all, there were dozens of less...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 69 - A Wasted Planet

Elijah’s efforts took him all the way to two-thirty-nine, and a good ways through that as well.  He wasn’t certain why the system had decided that every ninth level took so much more experience, but he’d begun to dread them.  That he’d progressed nearly halfway to two-forty was ...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 68 - Eternal Foes

They made the first move.

Elijah leaped high into the air, using Cloud Step to go high enough to avoid the deluge of attacks.  They blistered the air beneath him, tearing through the abyssal monster’s remains with wind blades and blobs of paralytic poison.  The second was new, a...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 67 - Enemy of my Enemy

Elijah was exhausted.

He’d been at it for four days, constantly attacking the abyssal monster.  He’d poured everything he could into the prolonged battle, and, at long last, it had gotten fed up with his attacks.  With thundering steps, it followed him onto the chain.  View Post

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 66 - Poking the Bear

I've removed the chapters for book two from here and Royal Road. They will be available on September 2 when Whispers of the Wild (book 2 of Path of Dragons) releases on Kindle and Audible. Check it out 2025-08-15 15:10:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 65 - Worse Things

The ruins were the most intact Elijah had encountered since entering the Broken Crown.  The buildings loomed over him, towering to heights that would never have been possible back on Earth.  Thousands of floors, all empty.  He’d entered the city two days before, and he’d still ...

Chapter 757 - The Need for Closure

“You don’t have to do this.”

“You’ve said that to me before.”

“And I’ve meant it every time, Ezekiel.”

He shook his head, turning away from Eveline.  She flitted across the room, planting herself in front of him.  It was hard to believe just how much ...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 64 - A Grove Untended

Elijah stomped on a floundering vespiran’s head, and as its skull cracked underfoot, he felt brains and other fluids squish between his bare toes.  He ignored it, whipping his head around to investigate the chamber for more survivors. 

There were none.

Silence reigned thro...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 63 - Shape of Spores

Elijah grew, bypassing the size he normally associated with the Shape of Thorn.  It didn’t stop until he was staring Zhyratha eye-to-eye.  Something hit his back, but he barely even felt it.  Instead, his hand shot out, and his four fingers wrapped around the vespiran High Druid...

Chapter 756 - Meaning and Consequence

“If you were to ask most people what they thought godhood meant, what do you think they’d say?” asked Zeke, sitting in front of his captive.  Predictably, the knight said nothing, as much because he was terrified into silence as because he was bound and gagged.  There might have b...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 62 - Zhyratha

Over the next three weeks – as far as Elijah could tell – six more groups met the same fate as the first.  Each instance was worse than the last, and not just because he was forced to endure the pain of a wasp larva boring through his skull and trying to take control of his mind.  View Post

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 61 - Larva

Elijah awoke to discomfort and immobility.

His uneasiness only worsened when he opened his eyes to see the setting.  All around him, dragons hung, their bodies plastered to the wall by familiar resin.  Elijah was no different, his arms and legs entirely immobilized by that same su...

Announcements (Path of Dragons)

First of all, I rearranged the collections section, separating the Path of Dragons books. I think this will make it easier for people to read them. But let me know if there are any issues with those because I did it at like 2AM, and I'm sure I made some mistakes!

Second, Protector of th...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 60 - Hollow

The wind whistled in Elijah’s ears as he rocketed toward the vespiran.  For the briefest of instants, the creature didn’t react.  Then, his eyes widened.  That moment of surprise was the only opening Elijah needed, and the Verdant Fang sank deep into the thing’s chest.  ...

One thing that surprised Elijah more than anything else was the sheer variety on display within the army.  Not only was every facet of draconic society on display, but there was physical diversity within each category as well. 

For instance, some of the dragons looked much as he...

Chapter 755 - Easier than it Should Be

Zeke crushed the man’s throat, then tossed him aside.  He didn’t even know his title.  Just that he was head of the Temple of the Sun, as evidenced by his once-fancy robes and elaborate scepter.  And the fact that everyone there seemed to defer to him. 

Looking down,...

“The Red Tyrant's work.  Impressive, is it not?” asked Dolo, one of his arms on his hip.  The other had been severed during one of the previous battles.  When it had happened, the tetradrak had been only a little distraught, mostly because he wasn’t looking forward to the cos...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 57 - Disconnected

The sky roiled, billowing clouds of corruption staining the atmosphere.  Even though he knew it couldn’t touch him, Elijah watched it like it was an impending natural disaster.  A tidal wave of wrongness that would sweep over what was left of the planet and infect them all.  Havi...

Chapter 754 - Why

Jonah took a swig from his beer as he studied the enigmatic stranger across the table.  The man had shown up at his gate only two days before, and since then, Jonah still hadn’t quite figured out what to think of him.  Immune to inspection and teeming with power, the guy was clearly a...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 56 - Allies and Dragons

A swarm of glittering flies billowed, spreading in every direction and descending upon every wasp within a quarter-mile radius.  At the center of it was Elijah, spinning and leaping as he fell into the rhythm of battle.  Every now and again, lightning arced out, finishing off or stunnin...

Gunnar wanted to shoot someone.

Or maybe more than one.  Over the past few weeks, he’d added multiple names to his list.  Not only were there the ones he’d expect – like Lefevre and Kaffey – who’d more than earned their placement, but there were plenty of others as well....

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 54 - Choosing a Path

Elijah stared at the portal, still unsure of which path to take.  He’d been sitting there for hours, endlessly debating each option.  And he was still no closer to a definitive decision.  The problem, as he’d first noted, was that each of his available options was attractive.&n...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 53 - Asserting Dominance

Elijah pushed himself to feet and finally let himself see the carnage he’d wrought.  Tens of thousands of wasps, spiders, drachnids, and vespirans lay dead.  But for the hatred flowing through him, it was not enough.  He knew that, even when they were all dead, he would want more...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 52 - Sprint

Arriving at the Circle of Lost Seas was a little disconcerting, and not just because of the sudden change in temperature or the mostly imagined stink of wasps.  No – what Elijah found most jarring was the presence of a Conclave compound only a few hundred yards away from his dolmen. <...

Miguel blocked a thrown dagger, slapping the blade aside as he charged forward.  With a surge of speed, he rammed into the goblin-sized troll, slamming his sword through its chest.  It erupted from the thing’s back in a shower of gore that sprayed the next sapper in the narrow corrido...

Chapter 753 - Know Thy Enemy

Unsurprisingly, the City Registrar was located on the first tier.  Though Zeke did note that its surroundings were much better maintained and far cleaner than the rest of the tier.  It also played host to a great many guards, all of which sported the sunburst badge signifying allegiance...

Path of Dragons 11 - Chapter 50 - Empty

For a few hours, Elijah just wandered the grove, wondering where everyone was.  He could feel them nearby, but so vaguely that they were barely even noticeable.  It was similar to what he felt from the people in Ironshore.  The city was within his grove’s sphere of influence, but...

“I have to admit – that went better than expected,” Elijah remarked, looking down at the rapidly rotting troll.  Even with half its flesh having turned into a decaying slurry that mingled with the massive pool of congealing blood beneath it, the thing was huge.  His previous asses...

Chapter 752 - Phoenix Reach

Zeke approached the tiered city with characteristic nonchalance.  He was unconcerned with how he was viewed, largely because there was nothing in the realm that could inflict consequences upon him.  Perhaps not in the entirety of the multi-versal landscape. 

Instead, he focus...
