Just figuring out the best way to share these since patreon editing is limited - so bare with me, first up is Trevor, also any feed back is welcome especially if you think knowing the inner workings of skills like this is too much of a spoiler :D<...
2025-09-08 16:34:38 +0000 UTC View PostAs we pulled up to what would be our campsite for the evening, I made sure to check my notifications for the day.
Notification:

2025-09-07 18:13:01 +0000 UTC View PostOnce everyone had eaten, the conversation quickly turned to the buffs—particularly the bread rolls.
As Jen pointed out, it shouldn’t have worked. I’d done tests with Geo, and any time he helped me with cooking, I couldn’t infuse the ...
2025-09-06 20:28:45 +0000 UTC View PostI was torn between checking my new evolution upgrades and finding out what was going on.
Crisplet was back in the fire, but everyone else was still outside. It sounded like the battle was over, and now there were just two large fires burning...
2025-09-05 19:39:15 +0000 UTC View PostLeaving town, Hari stopped by the guards to let them know we were heading out on patrol. It was then that I learnt another group should already be on their way back from patrolling the forest’s edge, and unless something had delayed them, we’d...
2025-09-04 04:52:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, everyone was in high spirits. I successfully carved a rune into two more melons and reached Level 2 in Carving Touch. But when I looked through Char’s notebook, I was immediately reminded of how truly out of my depth I was.
... 2025-09-02 12:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostIt had been over a month since he’d started this job. It was supposed to be simple—investigate rumours of a new rare class appearing in Dunhearth, report back to Lord Falcone, and be done.
And at first, everything went smoothly. After a ...
2025-09-01 12:55:42 +0000 UTC View PostLiane had left to find out what Simon was up to and to properly scout the area. It was apparently extra important to Hari, because once we left to do patrols, he needed to know how much protection Micca would require from the guild.
She had ...
2025-08-31 15:23:52 +0000 UTC View PostWell, if I can’t use an essence on a batch like that, I guess the other options would be to make a large one and break it up… or maybe see if I can use it in a drink.
Micca was still slowly eating her cookie.
“You know, these wou...
2025-08-30 17:55:08 +0000 UTC View PostIt didn’t take long for us to make it back to the house with Micca. Once inside, Liane quickly informed the others of what had happened.
I was surprised by their reaction—Hari and Jen both went to grab their weapons. Did they really thin...
2025-08-29 17:38:46 +0000 UTC View Post“It is you! Why are you here?” Micca called out, jumping down from her wagon and running forward.
“Uh, long story. What… why are you here?” I stammered, dismounting from Sable.
She wrapped me in a hug—at least until she not...
2025-08-28 06:39:35 +0000 UTC View PostOnce it was all over, I felt… relieved. Sure, I’d need to cook more drake, but the pressure wasn’t as crazy this time—I didn’t have a three-day deadline.
I was also relieved that Liane was okay. Both because she ate the drake, but ...
2025-08-26 17:41:30 +0000 UTC View PostI leapt forward to try to stop her, but she was already gone. Even Crisplet shot some sparks. It didn’t take long for the others to notice something had happened and put things together.
“You’ve got to be kidding me. Liane, get back he...
2025-08-25 18:26:40 +0000 UTC View PostObviously, I couldn’t use Stock Reduction yet. These steaks were rare quality, and I could only reduce common.
But soon!
Once I’d cut off a thick steak, I laid it out on the stone table. It looked rather funny—like a ridiculously...
2025-08-24 17:20:40 +0000 UTC View PostMilo didn’t wait for the others to try the stew, but grabbed a bowl straight away instead. I was curious as well. I had tasted Buvul and mushroom stew many times when Geo made it, so I wondered if the flavour would be drastically different.
<... 2025-08-23 16:10:13 +0000 UTC View PostWe set up our camp that evening right on the border with the forest, so we finally got to collect firewood. Liane and Jen both went hunting in the forest as soon as we stopped. I knew what Liane would be looking for—so did Jen, which was why she...
2025-08-22 14:35:33 +0000 UTC View PostAs we turned off the path that would have cut through the mountain range, the trip immediately got slower. The ground was loose and rocky, and Sable was not used to this type of surface. Even though we weren’t on the mountains themselves, the sl...
2025-08-22 09:46:51 +0000 UTC View PostIt didn’t take long for the man’s boss to show up. He looked flustered as he came up the stairs, but after eyeing the group and seeing Jackson, he seemed to rapidly gather himself and then bowed.
“Hello, my name is Ralph. If you don’...
2025-08-21 16:35:07 +0000 UTC View PostAfter that announcement from Kara, she promptly left the house, saying she had many other matters to attend to in the wake of the disaster that had occurred. It seemed like everyone was preparing to leave right away, but to me there was still a ma...
2025-08-21 08:09:30 +0000 UTC View PostWe stopped, watching in both awe and horror, as a giant fissure split open along the mountainside, followed by the strongest tremor yet.
The streets erupted with panic and fear. Buildings cracked at their foundations, people screamed, and al...
2025-08-20 17:03:56 +0000 UTC View PostAs we left the office and the doors shut behind us, I heard another loud crash. I suspected I now knew why Kara kept such a modest desk.
Heading down the stairs, my mind reeled with what had just happened—how casually the Lord had asked to...
2025-08-19 15:34:04 +0000 UTC View PostIt was an awkward wait, especially once the captain of the guard arrived. Hari flat-out refused to speak to him until Jackson showed up, which took considerably longer.
“Can you at least tell us what caused the incident?” the guard capta...
2025-08-19 06:31:24 +0000 UTC View PostLily hated the city. Impossible to get a proper sleep, and with that lizard on the hill, she rarely had a clear view of the moon. Why did humans choose to live like this?
There hadn’t been much to do once the child had entered the city. He...
2025-08-18 08:21:53 +0000 UTC View PostAs I write the story, I am considering adding a couple Interludes through the story to address other characters, such as Lily and Micca, and others during the story itself, or I can keep them all till the end of the Novel like I did in book one as...
2025-08-18 06:28:33 +0000 UTC View PostWe waited, letting the silence of the cave linger, listening for the slightest sound of movement. When none came, we advanced.
Milo dismantled the spikes that had blocked the creature from flanking us and conjured another orb of light, sendi...
2025-08-17 15:17:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, when I woke up, I saw Milo and Jen sitting by the windows Milo had left in the side of the structure. Hari and Liane were still asleep.
I made my way to the fire, where Crisplet was resting. Did fire elementals even sleep?<...
2025-08-16 16:10:50 +0000 UTC View PostAs I entered the structure, about to get back to eating my rabbit, it seemed my words had struck a chord—Milo burst through the entrance right after me.
“Did you say… Ancient?”
I just nodded. Milo collapsed onto the ground near...
2025-08-15 16:05:09 +0000 UTC View PostHari didn’t put me down until we reached the bottom of the stairs. He had run so fast that what had taken us hours to climb only took minutes to descend. Crisplet had become an orb in my hand, and I honestly don’t know how I managed to keep a ...
2025-08-14 14:25:09 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, like every morning so far, I did not want to get out of bed.
Part of me wondered if perhaps being an adventurer was the wrong choice. If I became a chef in the city, I’d have access to a bed every day, right?
I shoo...
2025-08-14 08:20:26 +0000 UTC View PostBefore we left the inn, I remembered to quickly check my notifications from the day before. There were 52 more since yesterday, but it wasn’t enough to push me over a level. I was, however, getting close to that level 20 mark—and I’d get a n...
