Today (Friday 2/12/2021) marks my very last day at my day job. From this day forward, I'll be a full-time author. Amazing and insane, and you're all part of that. If it weren't for all of you and your support, I wouldn't be able to manage this thing I'm turning into a career.
So from the d...

"Here they are," Portia said.
She had led him to a pair of cots in the rear of the Healer's Ward. Real, actual cots held the two heavily bandaged men. Felix could make out their faces well enough, even if he didn't have his Voracious Eye to identif...

Felix marveled as he flexed his hand. The hole that the priest had shot through it had healed completely. All it had cost him was stolen essence. The other slices and bruises on his body healed just as fast, fading to simple scratches in minutes, though it depl...
