I began the meeting by asking Bridget to recount her experience. She detailed what she had seen and what would have happened had we not rescued her and the others in time. Her descriptions of human remains were enough to provoke the anger of every...

The faint scent of ash and rust filled my lungs as I dashed through the ruins of Crownhill. Marcus went off to get the Sheriff, and the others spread out to contact the other minor factions. I decided I should do the same.

It took me a while to shake off the effects of three levels of Mania. Blood Frenzy didn't earn its name lightly, and the woods outside of Crownhill now housed considerably fewer monsters.
Hopefully, the notifications my companions received i...

The grand banquet hall buzzed with activity, the tables laden with diverse dishes, as guests from across the Ten Thousand Worlds engaged in lively conversation. Despite their many flaws, the Cult of the Unblinking Eye knew how to throw a party.

As we continued driving towards Crownhill, the landscape around us transformed from dense forests to a mix of rolling hills and patches of woodland. The road was rough and uneven, making the ride bumpier than usual, but our trusty old jeep held up...

Sakura hammered a few more nails through her bat before she was finally satisfied with her replacement club. Then, with a grin, she hefted it and waved it around. Seeing my former boss waving around a spiked club like a gangster made me chuckle.
