"Laur! Shields!" Vess cried.
"Already forming!"

Hey folks, I had a death in the family and it's throwing me off my schedule a bit. My great aunt passed at an astounding 101 years---a long life, but it's still rough.
I'll have today's chapter up a little later for Journeyman Tier.

It wasn’t the waiting, really, so much as the boredom. Pit had already counted all the tiles across the chamber twice, watched the storm out the windows, and stared aimlessly through the swirling Shadowgate. E...

"Pyreform, huh?" Evie asked, reading the Skill descriptions that hovered in front of her. "So you're an elemental now?"
