The run was plenty long enough to tease out what he needed from the mana field and determine that it was essentially a suggestion field saying ‘you want to go this way; the thing/place you want is this way’. All h...

Akert was smaller than Rissa had expected from Katya’s descriptions; she’d assumed it would be a major city, with everything Katya had said about the market. It wasn’t.

Andarit and Arrin were appropriately impressed as Serenity hurried them towards the creeper rot. The demonstration was worth the time and mana use, but he didn’t want to take more than that. He still didn’t know...

“Creeper rot?” Andarit turned to Serenity, confused. “That doesn’t sound that bad. What is it?”
“A magical fungus, I think. The important thing is that it eats organics and spreads really easily. Wh...

Arrin followed the trail into a small room with two beds and two chairs. He noticed the door vanish, but it wasn’t like he was going to try to go back until he’d killed Andarit anyway. He only had three days, now...

I spent some time playing with some AI art generators today. I was hoping to come out with either some cover art or a good image of Serenity.
I wasn't very successful. I figured I'd share the hilariously bad dragon pictures anyway.
