Lifeweaver: Chapter 25

The monster built from bits and pieces of humans reached for Luke, who'd thrown up Threads of Mana to block. One thread cut into the Flesh Golem’s mana channels as it struck, parting the arm in t...

Lifeweaver: Chapter 24

Ray pushed Penny back with a firm hand. "I don't know if it's real or not, but it doesn't matter. It's not part of our world. Let's just find this Shepherd, kill him, and get out of here."

Lifeweaver: Chapter 20

Luke looked out across the crowd after shouting for more members to join the party of six required. Perhaps six wasn't a must, but going in without as much power as they could muster was a fool's e...

Lifeweaver: Chapter 19

Everyone stopped and held their breaths as the portal groaned, and some of that warm pinkish hue returned, but nothing happened for a long moment, and Luke glanced at the countdown timer in his int...

Lifeweaver: Chapter 18

Lifeweaver: Chapter 17

Lifeweaver: Chapter 16

Lifeweaver: Chapter 14

Lifeweaver: Chapter 13

Lifeweaver: Chapter 8

With the spear pulled out of his body, Luke stumbled, stepped forward, and then fell. Coughing as the wind was knocked out of him, each breath provided Luke with less and less air. Even with all th...

Lifeweaver: Chapter 6

It was a tall, pear-shaped thing without clothes or hair, like the Michelin Man if he had lost a ton of weight while still being fat. Rolls of loose skin covered its disgusting, fleshy body, and it...

"Shut up...

Lifeweaver: Chapter 2
