Ignis felt too tired to fight with Amicus. She waited until he deemed it safe to lower their platform and unfurl it. They drifted towards Dianette who was panting, hunched over with her hands on her knees. The velen gratefully climbed aboard with help from Ignis. The young soldier brushed a...

More prayers tumbled past Ignis’ lips when she saw the ring of fire forming. She had managed to crawl towards Laurel. Her eyes squeezed shut as she clung to the battle hardened woman and words of supplication tumbled past her lips, begging Aquila for help. She rifled through her robes for a bit...

When the mist fell, Ignis began to murmur a prayer to Aquila. “A lonely fortress. It keeps watch throughout the day. Crash and break on it.” A barrier rose between her and the ongoing battle, shielding herself and Laurel from whatever might come their way. The avian could only hope Aeria could...

Amicus was able to summon vines and thick branches to protect Ignis from the lightning orb coming their way. The orb crashed into the magical shield, sparks crackling along the vines and searing the leaves out of existence. The mons infans panted from the effort. His veins burned from...

Ignis hated feeling so helpless. Her leg throbbed and her head pulsed. Unfortunately, there was little Amicus could do for her. The enlil's eyes burned with desperation and her chest tightened. She watched with horror as Aeria struggled to defend herself. Then, the avian’s face twisted into the...

The sound and force of the explosion shook the leafy construct, making it difficult to stay upright. Ignis began to pray to Aquila for extra protection, the words tumbling past her lips even faster once the dragon’s roar filled her ears. A thin shield curved around their leafy platform, but...

“Good throw,” Laurel commented with a resolute nod. “This doesn’t look good,” Ignis murmured, squinting at the thrashing dragon. The bright orbs were blinding, causing the avian to shout and cover them with an arm. Seconds later, their platform swerved violently in order to dodge the magical...

Crashing Waves 1822 words Fare for a ship out of Terminus was more expensive than Lottie had anticipated. Her coin purse was considerably lighter than anticipated after boarding The Wayfinder. Its crew and captain were bold and consisted of relatively powerful characters --they were among few...

Ignis frowned, unable to feel relieved when their shelter survived the first bout of flames. She was certain there was more to come. Unfortunately, she could not predict the next burst of flames very well. She'd barely been able to spot the cloaked figure striking at something when flames burst...

The Bitter Dregs 1371 Lottie made a face at the gritty dregs of her coffee. It was time to refill her mug again. The caffeine and the strong flavor had been keeping her going for the past few hours while the agent pored over the documents and notes in the file Eden had given her. The...

Ignis had already noticed the unnatural and sudden heat. “Not again,” she mumbled, not seeming to hear Aeria’s question. The avian’s eyes were glassy and she was rocking back and forth subtly. “We...” the feathered woman paled as her breathing grew far too shallow. “We need to get a better...

Laurel clicked her tongue. “Still useless until you get healed up. Look kid, this is a real battle. Save stroking your ego for something less serious. We're already making our way towards the dragon.” The laicar turned her attention to Ignis. “What do you see out there?” “The path is...

The gargoyle screeched as Aeria hacked at it, it's flight patterns becoming more erratic. Angrily, the ugly, gnarled creature howled. One arm clubbed at Aeria, its function inhibited by her desperate attacks. The hand around the spurii’s throat tightened, making it more difficult for the lancer...

Cora kept firing at the aerial squid, the gunshots getting louder. The vines tried to wrap around the squid’s body and tentacles, sharp branches growing to repel its attack. Dianette pulled the trigger on her rifle, aiming straight at the squid like demon’s body. Laurel sat up and...

Cora fired rapidly at the squid as soon as the first insectile demon had gone down. Amicus saw those awful tentacles and felt Ignis’ rising panic. He pulled and the plat form jerked backwards and dropped fast, plummeting more harshly than even gravity would have pulled it on its own. Ignis...

The drone that had been hovering after Ignis whirred and fired several shots at one of the insectile demons as soon as it was in range. Ignis fired her pistol at the other. In the same breath she ducked the tentacles that had gotten far too close for comfort out of reflex. One of the tentacles...

Ignis paled at the sight of the dragon. Couldn’t it have just stayed in Infernalis where it belonged? She groaned under her breath, “Not that thing again.” She wondered how they would manage to subdue the beast and the mysterious figure riding it without suffering terrible casualties. Dread...

Hanging In the Balance 1546 Follows Any Way You Want It Eden grinned as she mapped out possible plans. Her latest endeavor with Mercuti had the potential to be an interesting and productive challenge. The business woman liked mind games and puzzles. She'd hardly been able to contain her...

Ignis’ shoulders sagged in relief. “I'm so glad you're alright,” she murmured. Unfortunately, Aeria was already up and preparing to attack the demons again. She whipped up her arm and fired at the beast, squeezing extra to release two bullets instead of one. As soon as the shots were fired...
