Rob idly tapped his foot against the ground as he waited. Waiting, as it turns out, was something he was going to have to get used to. That hadn’t been an issue when he was stumbling around a deadly forest, not knowing where he was going or what...

A deluge of outdated system messages flooded Rob’s vision as he awoke. His eyes widened as he sat up from the couch he was laying on and scrolled through the list showcasing the internal bludgeoning his brain had been put through while he was un...

Status Effect: Hopeful (Mild) has changed to Hopeful (Moderate)!

“So what do you want to do tonight?” Jason asked. “Heard there’s going to be a party on 4th

A gentle breeze caressed his cheek.
His campfire crackled in the silence.
The moon shone down with warmth.

Figuring out what to do with Men’ta’s body ended up being a grim, mentally-exhausting stumbling block. They couldn’t leave his body behind for later retrieval as it would be summarily eaten by spiders – or any of the other carnivorous beas...

Rob ran, and he didn’t know where.
He had no delusions that he could outrun the elves if they came for him again. They would be on him like a pack of lions cornering an infant gazelle. Nor did he have any destination in mind, or even a hu...

The Elder’s proclamation sparked another round of debate. Emotions flew about the room like debris in a tempest, tossed about aimlessly and without any regard for collateral damage. At least, that was how Ria...

“Seriously? You said that to a professor?” Jason snickered. “Not trying to earn any brownie points, are you?”
