Chapter 14
Walking along the river made for far slower passage, even with Magnus’ help in finding paths to take that would allow him to not have to wade through bushes or clinging vines that lined the riverbank.
Casey kept with the plan, though. He followed the riverbank ...

Hope you all have had a great year and are looking forward to the next. Thankfully for Desmond here, the Chloe-Krampus is gonna be a bit more gentle than the normal one might be!

I’d still not figured out a way to diplomatically ask Cariad if she’d let me touch her and see if the entropy magic would protect me from the consequences that may have very well been why she was willing...

When they left Hrefna’s house a few minutes later, Maude was clearly lost in thought. Casey, rather than interrupt her line of thinking, set about taking care of his errands. While he’d recently had the chance to refresh his supplies in Oakwatch, he still visited t...
2024-12-23 09:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostI gave both Cerebaton’s warning and his suggestion several days to percolate in my mind. One thing that kept slowing me down was the realization that, while I was undoubtedly interested in Cariad, I had a very full plate at the moment. Between the relationship I already had with Kassandra and R...

Casey chatted with Arvid about inconsequential things as they walked. The two drengr in the lead would chime in on occasion, but for the most part they seemed to be content to listen to the two men talk with the occasional huff or grunt from Magnus.
It was actual...

Magnus, in his interminable style, made friends immediately with the drengr of the Oak Horde. Once Arvid got over the start of having something so big creep up on him, he immediately began to rummage in his pouch for some dried fruit to offer the big animal. When Magnu...

Koda chased the Crooked forces until they reached the narrow paths that lead up and out of the low valley. He swung the oversized meat cleaver that the Crooked champion had once wielded like he was beating dirty rugs with it, hacking down foes with abandon.

2024-12-15 09:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostHaving spent so long struggling to get by, working in a shitty job, and having to put up with so much bullshit to make ends meet gave me a strong sense of work ethic.

Given the chaos Casey had left in his wake, he pushed himself hard to make as much distance as possible. The escape from the town had been flawless, and if he hadn’t ended up running across the trio of idiots on the road outside, it would have meant he could travel e...

By the time Koda hit the edge of it, the camp was already in disarray.
The other three hunting parties had waited only moments for the group that was pursuing their fellows to exit the camp before they shoved the prepared logs and rocks over the cliff edge to cras...

“So, what is the plan, Sienna?” the bear-featured man said once Koda and Sienna had crept back into the trees so that the other hunters could talk to them more easily.
The group crowded around, though none besides Sienna got within arm’s reach of Koda.
“I still can’t get over how well you handled Valda in the fight the other day!” Kassandra’s cheer was infectious as the dwarf lamia slithered along at my side, grinning happily while she swayed.
“It was just sparring,” I reminded her carefully. “If we’d been in an actual fig...

It turned out that the situation at the gate was even easier than Casey had expected. There were no guards standing watch on the inside of the gate. Instead, he heard voices from the small hut to one side of the passage, voices and the rattle of dice on wood.

Finding the path left by the monsters wasn’t hard. They hadn’t exactly been trying to be subtle in their flight. Koda followed the road that the female hunter who had reported to Sienna came in on, then looked for signs of struggle.

Sienna was an able guide and led the way deeper into the village for Koda without hesitation.
They clashed twice more with the gnarled creatures, and Koda gave as good as he got with the clawed gauntlet. He could feel something guiding him as he fought, a sensation of...

Water struck his face with the sensation of pushing through a gauzy curtain. It pushed against Koda’s skin for a brief moment before parting and allowing him through. No sensation of wetness clung to him, just that gentle tugging sensation accompanied by the stronger pull...
