Epsilon Twilight

86. Shift I

Once I became aware that the author I had been seeking for almost a decade had been before my very eyes all this time, I couldn’t help myself. I needed to meet him, to meet Eygaz. It was a danger...

85. Heir III

Time looked as if it had stopped upon the realization. In retrospect, the pieces were always there. I knew few things about the nameless author, but it was enough with the three pieces of informati...

85. Heir II

“Does it scare you?” Amyr added, his hand still being attacked by magic lightning. “Does it scare you that your own soul acted beyond your control and knowledge?”

My first instinct ha...

85. Heir I

The planes slightly warped as my avatar manifested on the imperial palace. I was aware that my presence would make either Princess Salayah or dragonborn Caius come, so whilst I waited for them to m...

84. Affinity

“What I’m seeing here is that the hole will be a pain to sew back.” First Sergeant Shyz touched my shoulder and inspected the hole. “Damn, it’s a clean hole by both sides of the jacket bu...

83. Training

Even after a night’s rest, my mind was still focused on the author of the soul anthology. I had found proof of their existence. This was the farthest I had ever gone with my investigations. I kne...

82. Divination

“So, a healer then?” The young arcanist asked once the glooming dread on the room settled down.

“I’m not fully qualified as such, but I can do some patching and first aid,” I added....

Update on Book Cover

Hey guys!

Do you remember that I told you a while ago I contacted an artist to make a book cover? So, yeah, I didn't get a response. Instead, I contacted another artist and has already given ...

81. Order

I would say I had done my bags if I had any personal items, to begin with. I probably was the most austere and minimalist ellari in Ferilyn, my personal belongings were kept to a minimum. Clothes, ...

80. Alive II

My eyes shut wide open as Marissa’s lips touched mine. She vigorously pushed her tongue against mine in a mad frenzy. I gave her a light push, separating our lips and ending the kiss.

“Wh...

80. Alive I

Alatea was more than capable to heal all the damage my body had sustained over the last days, and far more competently than me. The Regenerate spell was powerful, but at the end of the day, it was ...

79. Mystics II

“Greetings, imperial princess.” My Astral Self bowed to the albino draconid as I materialized in the imperial palace. Checking back on my body, I felt Alatea’s healing magic making its course...

79. Mystics I

I found myself in Alatea’s office as I went to visit her to heal all the damage the sparing against the Ceaseless Storm had done on my body. But to my surprise, when I opened the door there was a...

78. Soldier IV

Have you ever wondered what it felt like to be blind? Most likely yes. Everyone would say they only see an infinite blackness if they lost their sight, yet to me, that infinite appeared as the shin...

78. Soldier III

I followed Albeyr through the military offices, but Amira stayed back at her office. That made me a bit nervous because if there was one person I could trust, it was the pure-soul arcanist.

W...

78. Soldier II

“What are you exactly doing?” Fynn Albeyr asked me.

He had entered the room at some point, but I was too concentrated to even notice it. It didn’t help that Amira herself was able to do...

78. Soldier I

The day after visiting Novela’s emporium, I finally deemed it appropriate to go back to classes. Besides, I had mostly healed back thanks to the relentless efforts of Mystic’s Dominion to keep ...

77. No Rest for the Damned II

My voice, almost a whisper, exploded with confusion incarnate.

“What do you mean that my Arcane affinity lowered?”

“What I have just fucking said!” Novela’s removed her hands ...

77. No Rest for the Damned I

Pain.

A single odious word. A single word I had painstakingly made familiar with these last days. They say the wicked had no rest, but it was more like no rest for the damned in my case.

76. Patriarch

Saphar hadn’t really changed after these many years. Maybe he got a bit taller, but that was all. He was of dark blue skin like his father, but his hair was white-blond instead of orange-red. He ...

75. Noble House

As my consciousness came back to my body, I was able to breathe again. My body had been breathing automatically whilst I was gone, mind you. It just felt like a novelty to breathe. And also, very p...

74. Heroes of War

As a lightning strike of unbelievable power assaulted me, around the nine-star mark judging by the fluctuations of mana, I shifted my Astral Self back to the spiritual plane.

That’s the thi...

73. Testimony

“Did you actually have to tell everything?” Marissa’s first comment after finishing telling my story was but a groan. “You certainly didn’t have to tell all the events until right now?”...

72. Untold Story

I blinked several times as it took time for my dying body to grow used to the light emitted by the surrounding Mage Lights. I tried to get up from the chair I was laying on, but my arms proved too ...

Addendum: Letter from a Traveler

Disclaimer: This chapter is an addendum to the end of the second book. It's meant to incite questions but contains mild spoilers that some readers may not be comfortable with. This chapter is total...

Update/New Schedule

Hi there everyone!

I decided to take a week off publishing chapters before the third book to rest a bit. The upcoming releases of new chapters will also come slower as I don't have a stockpil...

71. End of Inactivity

I woke up once more to the world of the living, no different than coming back from the dead. I found extreme difficulty in the most menial tasks such as blinking and breathing. Rebirth was complica...

70. Life Anew

I felt my inexistent blood freeze as an entity beyond comprehension appeared before me. From the mist dancing on top of the River of the Damned, a wooden vessel appeared in my sight. It was a gondo...

69. Known Origins

“You may inquire the wrath of the gods if you cast this spell.” The emperor said as he brought me an old book in tatters. The antiquity was held together by sheer luck alone. “This isn’t ma...

68. Throne Room

“Hello, father.” I bowed to our mighty country’s emperor.

The old emperor may not be the strongest warrior in the Imperium, but he was a very capable mage and my mentor. His eyes posses...
