2024-05-18 15:35:30 +0000 UTC View PostIt rained without a single cloud in the sky. Instead there was a large flock of birds, flying upon the skies.
They were cloudbirds, with feathers made to look like their namesake, colo...
Moonwash, Baston, Luine, and I walked through the overgrown forest, away from any established roads. We all carried very large packs on our backs, but it barely slowed us down, as strong as we were...
2024-05-18 15:31:53 +0000 UTC View PostEveryone was here to celebrate my departure. They were just that excited for me to be gone.
Jokes aside, I had spent the entire past month cooped up at home. I’d already said my good...
A few weeks later, I was finally ready to choose the two new Mutations I could get for free. I had pored over the list with my family and Moonwash, and just learning of the possibilit...

“Stop. Stop! I need a moment, I need to be alone!”
Everyone paused. They looked at each other questioningly, until my dad pulled both Mom and Baston away, gesturing for everyone else to ...

“Level 10, 10, 10. Below, below. Oh! A twenty!” I was muttering my observations to myself, as we made our way towards the upper districts. My level sense was still not as accurate as I’d like...
2024-05-18 13:28:25 +0000 UTC View Post“Hey, are you sure this is a good idea?” I asked Moonwash as we descended the very long spiral staircase leading to my house’s basement. I could just feel the rock all around us, hea...
2024-05-18 13:27:14 +0000 UTC View PostThe battle raged on below us. Goblins kept on streaming through, and the templars were forced to take part, after just waiting in reserve for most of the battle.

I stood right behind the fence separating the tree wall from the rest of town. With me was my full party, The Harvesters.
“Alright! Let’s win this!” Angerly announced, hefting her mass...
I was back in the rainforest. Just me, my dad, and Mom. They’d asked me if I would like to take part in the eradication of the sapient goblins. There would be no judgment if I didn’t go.
“Happy birthday,” Moonwash said and handed me a gift. My fourteenth birthday was actually yesterday and she’d also been there to celebrate it.
I took one look at the alleged gift, and ...

I walked across the streets with a pack of wands in my hand. I entered the ornate store, with my dad following behind. A cool breeze immediately greeted me inside, air conditi...
I raised an eyebrow as Moonwash clambered out of the Harvester Home. She was clad in full plate armor, with thick gauntlets and guards around the limbs. She didn’t leave herself nearly as exposed...
2024-05-18 13:20:03 +0000 UTC View PostIt had been over a month since the incident where my parents nearly died. Although I still wasn’t sure how close they really came, since Mom’s account of the situation always painted them out a...
2024-05-18 13:18:48 +0000 UTC View PostI stopped. I halted. My mind was still reeling, blood pumping frantically through my veins. I had arrived at the tree wall, the border marked by colored bushes. Those were the safe ones. The ones d...
2024-05-18 13:17:38 +0000 UTC View PostI went back out into the forests with my parents. It would take a while yet before I could go out as a party with The Harvesters.
I fought many of the same monsters out in the forest as Mom ...
We returned home before sundown after a fruitful day of hunting and adventure. I wanted to do more, to stay the night and brave it out in the wilderness, but my parents refused. They told me that I...
2024-05-18 13:14:30 +0000 UTC View PostI found myself in a clearing, facing a lone wolf. Not in the sense of people who liked to call themselves that, but an actual wolf that was alone. My parents deemed it to be an acceptable enough ta...
2024-05-18 13:13:21 +0000 UTC View PostI arrived at the southern exit of town, flanked by my parents on both sides. I was wearing my full regalia, the metal parts now coated with an outer layer of fantastreel.
Fantastreel was a h...

"I… I'm sorry." I tried to sound sincere. Luine decided to make us all apologize to each other, after catching us having a grand old brawl.
I couldn't even fault her for it. If I wer...

2024-05-18 13:05:40 +0000 UTC View PostI arrived at the foot of the tree wall, the magically sustained patch of forest that protects and surrounds the town of Latarus. Tall towering trees stood at unnaturally even intervals, their barks...
