2024-11-26 00:27:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day was pretty quiet. I’d slept in the Heart, and upon waking, gotten my wishes stocked up in the ring. I’d considered using them, but honestly, given the million point end goal, if I ...
2024-11-22 23:55:51 +0000 UTC View Post“This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen,” said Ray bluntly as we pushed through the hanging flower vines, stepping into the house. I’d taken to calling it the Heart of the Forest, because...
2024-11-22 00:36:06 +0000 UTC View PostArchie’s fight with the Queen wasp was pretty spectacular. Lots of fire and screeching, though the purification didn’t seem to hurt ALL of the wasp, just parts of it. Archie had other weapons, ...
2024-11-21 00:53:01 +0000 UTC View Post“Well, that didn’t take long,” Vesper said casually as the fog cleared. I had two minutes left on my timer, but it occurred to me wasting it on random larvae MIGHT be a poor use of my resourc...
2024-11-20 00:41:17 +0000 UTC View PostRather than just grind wishes and relax, the next day I decided to check in with the others (though I did store my eight scrolls in the ring before I left) . Vesper, Ray, Desria, and all my friends...
2024-11-18 22:49:30 +0000 UTC View PostI woke up with a headache. Again. I grimaced, massaging my head. This was becoming a fucking habit again, and I wasn’t excited about it. I sat up with a groan, looking around…and noticed I coul...
2024-11-16 00:00:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe activation of Gluttony changed the game. Aside from torn muscles from the electrocution, I hadn’t realized how much fucking FATIGUE had build up on my climb. Every step drove me deeper into p...
2024-11-14 21:59:12 +0000 UTC View PostI arrived at the trial relatively early. Even strolling, I’d given myself plenty of time, and this one wasn’t too far away. When I got there, I was pleased to see Harper, Elena, and Mnemosyne h...
2024-11-14 00:43:02 +0000 UTC View PostWe had five days until the next trial, and I spent them practicing with my new mask. There was a whole binding ritual where I had to bleed on it, then dance around it, then sing it a song…I was p...
2024-11-12 21:32:12 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day I got in touch with Zeke. As our resident master Enchanter (sort of) he was the first person I needed to talk to about my idea to offset the soul strain from my pseudo Domains. I hadn...

The fight with Grindelwald begins
2024-11-09 00:29:12 +0000 UTC View PostThe next five days were pretty mundane. Almost boring, to be honest. Physical combat practice with my apprentice, Life Nova baths with the clones, Life Nova infusion with the egg. Rinse. Repeat. If...

Aura awakens, and being an overachiever, a semblance too.
2024-11-07 21:36:43 +0000 UTC View PostI was feeling much better after my Life Nova bath. My muscles were pleasantly invigorated and rejuvenated, and I had plenty of energy to burn off, even though my soul was still fragile. The feeling...
