Chapter 70: Devil You Know

The next day dawned all too soon.

In many ways, it was beyond me to be exhausted now. My body could not tire.

But that didn’t address the mental exhaustion from casting so many spells. I’d been up most of the night fixing the damag...

Chapter 69: Mind over Matter

The moon cast its sliver light over the courtyard.

That wasn’t me being poetic, the moon on this plane didn’t shine with the faint white light I’d grown used to, or even the rusted red of Nirn’s. Instead, it painted over the night wi...

Chapter 68: Playing Nice

It was a struggle to keep my face calm as Liliana drew me deeper into the room, setting me to the right of her throne.

The symbolism was rather obvious.

Raven drew back, mingling with the Liliana’s horde of zombies. I didn’t envy h...

Interlude: Creeping Dread

Liliana gazed moodily into the Witch Bane Orb.

It was an interesting creation, the artifact that she’d bartered for with the Vampire Lady Olivia Voldaren. Just as its name indicated, the orb protected its wielder from malicious sorceries a...

Chapter 67: Insolvent

I’d like to have said that my alternate took my hand and pulled us both across the Blind Eternities to our destination without any fuss.

Of course, that would have been too easy.

The moment I reached out and took the...

Chapter 66: Finale of Promise

The correct answer was no.

That’s what every book, every cautionary story and children’s tale, said to do when given a Devil’s Bargain.

No matter how clever, or powerful you were, the Devil always collected his due. There were no...

Planar Chaos: All that Glitters

“This would have been so much easier if you didn’t wreck the motherboard,” I muttered. 

There had still been enough material left in my prosthetic limb to pry off a wall panel, after I’d summoned a copy for myself.

Chapter 64: Contingency

The situation was, in a word, dire.

I was trapped with no recourse in a ritual circle. My friends and teammates were trapped inside a simulated dream that they believed was real. Martian Manhunter, the one supporting the dream, was trapped b...

Runoff Poll

Thanks for all the support in my first poll!

I'm a bit surprised, but it looks like it ended up a four way tie. So here's a run off of the top four options. This time, the poll will be one vote only, so pick the one you want to see the most!...

Chapter 63: Fail State

In the end, that feeling of foreboding had me teach more than a few defensive spells to my friends. It offered little peace of mind, though I didn’t let my apprehension show, beyond warning the rest of the team to be on their toes.

For the...
