Op A.D.: Initiate! 175 /179 Whooo I am back in the grader seat! First targets? Mewn and Urm. Here we gooo! First things first: a mystery involving aliens seems pretty neat. I’m happy to see Mewn going forward with the story, and I’m also looking forward to what all else is in store for our two...

Will Temperantia 250/250 I know you weren’t terribly happy with this piece, but having read it a couple of times the biggest issue I see is pacing. We get to see Laebuta, having survived the little spat with the other archmagi, keep chugging along and being more useful than he thought. And...

Laoch WC: 2,000 “Please!” Ioannes begged, standing between Palamedes and the various people who surrounded them. “Please, there’s no need for this.” Currently, Ioannes was below the deck of the Hydrus in the cargo-hold along with the other injured. After the battle with the Archmagi and...

Will Sapientia 320/320 YOU BURNED A LIBRARY YOU MONSTER One of the things I can appreciate with your writing this time is your world building, or attempts to connect more of the world together to make it feel more alive. This can be hit or miss, though, as was the case in this chapter when...

Will Mis 667/667 The thread took a while, but it’s done now. I appreciate that your writing here is so well balanced between plot development, and handling all of the other characters. Per usually you demonstrated strong narrative writing style, and even when you took on other people’s...

“Yeah, no,” came a surly woman’s voice. Twin shotguns snaked their way between Deni and Misericorde. “I’ll be a married woman before I let another person sacrifice themselves. Kaeso!” “Swing again!” The order was for Dante, and heavy footfalls accompanied the demand. As the kinner took his...

The wandering gunsmith could hardly believe it. A bitter-sweet feeling rushed throughout his body as he realized what he did, and then his eyes grew wide when he felt the magicked surface fade away from under him. The world began to rush up around him and he panicked, the knowledge that those...

“I wasn’t meant to,” Ioannes muttered. At least now the wanderer knew why he’d felt the Call so strongly on the ship. He closed his eyes for a moment, steadying himself as he felt someone rest their hand on his shoulder. No, not someone, but dozens of people. He could feel them there, just...

Ioannes groaned and carefully pushed himself back up onto his feet. He grabbed at his chest and winced when it protested at his every movements. Firing wasn’t going to be easy like this. Something to worry about later. His rifle! The wandering gunsmith remembered then, as he’d been forced off...

Ioannes watched in horror as the serpent unleashed its attack, but didn’t have much time to worry about everyone on the ship. Unimaginable pain racked the demon, and in its pain the monster thrashed about wildly. The demon carrying Ioannes had enough trouble staying aloft, so when it needed to...

The hail fell and struck indiscriminately. Kaeso and Flavinia shared a space for a moment, the brunt of the magic falling on the enlil warriors armor and shield as he sought to protect his closest ally. Brother Paulus was a magical bastion, as swirling silver sands danced around him, mingling...

Chaos erupted across the deck of the Hydrus. As the demons touched down, their hideous bodies a mocking parody of the velen, the defenders surged forward. Ioannes, himself, wasted no time taking a shot at the first demon who was too close while the rest of his party did their own thing...

The arc of lightning raced in front of Ioannes, and brought the laicar gunsmith up short. The hairs on the back of his head stood on end, and a chill ran down his spine. He should have known he wasn’t leaving the ship. Not with Palamedes standing so defiantly, facing the giant serpent, and...

The two women had enough firepower between the two of them to aide the grizzly vorax, and without much more of a fight, the avian demon died in a violent spasm -- disappearing in a cloud of smoke. Palamedes turned and lunged at the next nearest demon, repeating what had worked so well before...

WC: 1,655 What Old Beginnings (cont.) Kincaid blinked. Apertis wanted to hire him. But not just hire him, the machina wanted to hire the thief off the books. Whatever it was that Apertis wanted help with, he needed it badly and didn’t trust anyone. If that wasn’t the case he wouldn’t...

Palamedes attention was solely focused on the avian demon that rushed him. He did not see the second demon, nor would he have cared. He did not even bother to notice the vile liquid that splashed across his matted fur. As the first demon drew close, the vorax reared and made a terrifying...
