Miri’s starstruck moment was shattered by the grating voice of Deskelon.  “I see you’ve brought your…retinue, just as we instructed. Good.” The half-elf bit her tongue lightly to kee...

Moments later, they emerged from a similar tunnel of light on an outcropping of rock hanging over a deep chasm.   An elaborate structure with colonnaded balconies surrounded the outcroppi...

A few of the servants stepped aside as the three women dashed down the long corridor, stopping dead in front of the large doors and composing themselves for a moment, before Miryala swung them open...

She arrived at the dining hall, which was mostly empty since the early shift had risen much earlier, and the servants whose work starts later hadn’t yet arrived.There she found Minna, likewise dr...

Miri yawned and sat up, stretching her long legs. The sun would be rising soon. She brushed her hair, and got dressed for the day as quickly as she could manage.

Today, she would put on her a...

“Think really hard, lassie, about what words come out of your mouth next—they may be your last.” The human’s jaw dropped for a tense moment as her fear-filled eyes took the measure of the d...

It had been over 50 years since the Arcane Council had called a general meeting, but this year, they were meeting again in Rhynchus, the largest city of the realm, where they had conjured the first...

Patrice bit her lip nervously. “I can do that, Milady.”

“Good girl. Now, they are protected by a spell, so you will allow people to punish them any way they see fit. EXCEPT that there are some liberties that shan’t be taken. Even with lowly excuses ...

“You, guard! The skinny one. What’s your name?”

“Patrice Milady.” “Patrice…you work for the constable of this town?” “Yes Milady.” “I have a proposition for you.” Marianna passed over a coin pouch. “If you do what I ask, this...

“Now, I’ve put an end to it, because I have a war of my own to wage,” Marianna said. “People of the town, do you find these sorceresses enchanting? Can you resist their charms?”

The question was met by laughter, and the two former sorceresses found themselves being pelted with moldy vegetables and rotten eggs. “That’s what I thought. I suspect that the rest of your for...

Fiona brought her torso upright, then thought about getting off her knees before thinking better of it. “We came from the misty isles with nothing--”

--” “Except the powerful amulets you stole from Tabitha, Mistress of Illusion, before you left. And your scant magical power. Now that I’ve absorbed it, I know its scale. I drank deeply of yo...

After a few minutes, the paddles mercilessly paused, before disappearing. The crowd quieted down and a smiling Marianna spoke.

“I hope I won’t have to explain the situation to you again, dears. You’ve made a mess of things here. Really, it reflects poorly on the sorceresses of the Misty Isles. So the sentence I pass ...

Just as before, the magic paddles chastised their targets, to the music of the Selena and Fiona groaning, and the crowd laughing. Even Marianna was chuckling so hard she covered her mouth.

The crowd laughed not only at the resounding sound of the magic feet making contact with the blubbery backsides, but with the graceless way the two would-be-conqueresses, who moments ago said they refused to kneel, had tumbled to their hands and knees. Neither had taken notice of the glowing paddles that had reappeared behind them.

The women who had instilled such fear in the village just yesterday had now become the laughing stock of the town square. Stripped of their powers, their clothes, and every drip of dignity, their r...

Not to be discouraged, if such a thing could ever be said of disembodied sky feet, they made their way around to the now well-presented targets on the other side of the doubled-over duo.

At that point, she tossed the ball of energy at the sisters, which set off what the crowd could only imagine as a kind of magical circus act. First, two disembodied feet, blue as the sky, kicked each sister in her most private area. At least one audible “squishing” sound was heard in addition to the slapping sound of contact and the groans of the sisters. This caused the two women to double over in pain, although the spell prevented any serious injury.

“Do we really have to go over this again?” Marianna asked, exasperated, as she conjured a small ball of energy between her hands. “I am a powerful sorceress. You were piddling witches who thought you were sorceresses. But now, I’ve taken what little power you’ve left, and you have none. So kneel. I won’t ask again.”

Fiona glared at the sorceress. “You have no right to judge us! What makes you think that we’ll kneel before you!”

“And why would you do that?” Selene said, suspicious. “That’s easy darling, you’re going to need it for the sentence I’m about to pronounce on you. Mind you, it will protect you from bodily harm, but it won’t stop you from feeling whatever is happening to you. We couldn’t have that. Now kneel for your sentencing.”

After a few moments, the odd blue patterns that had been circling around each of them dissipated. “What was that?” Fiona asked. “Oh, just a spell to protect you from harm.” Marianna replied, smiling craftily.

Marianna began whispering a chant, and soon, a clear, blue field was scintillating around each of the ex-sorceresses bodies. “This tingles! What are you doing?” Selena asked, confused. “My head!” Fiona shouted.

It was just over four-hundred years ago that the Arcane Council met at Rynchus and conjured the first Wardshell. In a matter of months, they had replicated the feat at most other population centers...

OK...

Going to wrap up the story soon, as in I expect it to be finished by April.  I'm starting the renders now.  It's been a rough time.  Part of me, I think, doesn't want this story to e...

You won't be billed for March

Due to my lack of updates, I've paused billing for the month of March.  I'll try to get on this and finish this story up!

Sorry for the lack of updates; plans for this page

For years, I updated every day.  No patreon that I ever joined updated more than a couple times a month.  But right now, I am trying to find the energy to wrap up this last story.  A...

Their tortured backsides were still glowing—Fiona’s red and letting off steam, while Selena’s would occasionally pulse with a bolt of blue lightning.

That was useless, though, since the crowd had seen everything on offer when Marianna’s magic had held them stretched out above the scaffold for the whole town to mock.

The two former sorceresses were gradually lowered to the ground, and used their new-found freedom of movement to wipe their faces and try to cover themselves.

(Working on getting back to posting.  That was...rough.  And after recovering, I've been depressed and had problems concentrating.  I'll try to get back on schedule and wrap this up ...

Recovering

I hope to post again soon, but right now everything still is bad enough that it's hard to concentrate or enjoy anything.

Hopefully posting will start again soon.

I'm sick and overwhelmed with work at the moment.  I'll get on it as soon as I can.
