Right to a Bear's Arms, Ch. 26

Season 2, Hera Takes the StageContent Warning: NSFW!(( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YwTn_ukmyA ))The sizzle of the pan on the stove was a cheerful sound, complimented perfectly by the music blasting from her Bluefang speakers on the counter neaby. Her culinary efforts filled the apartment kitchen/dining room with t...

Lykopis Art

While I know it's no real comparison for content, here at least is a small present for yall of some work I've had done of my favorite Half-Orc Barbarian Queen. I have way more in the wings ready for short scenes, so just wait and see.Image 1 was done by an artist on Fiverr, by the name of Sakha S. His work is o...

Fearful and the Guardian: First Haunting

Do you want to play Hide and Seek?My name is Andrew Phobos.My life is a ceaseless stream of terrifying situations, coincidences, encounters, stalkings, hauntings, run-ins with scary or crazy individuals, and near-brushes with abduction, muggings, or even death.That may sound dramatic, but trust me when I say it's a...

Of Barbarians and Bards

Quiet shuffles of silk and cloth. First one leg, then the other, sliding the trousers on over his legs as near silent as could be. For someone who had made an unhappy expertise in being quiet, stealthy, near undetectable, this was perhaps his most tenuous, most dangerous of endeavors. He’d snuck through Dragon hoards...

Who are the Two Great Lovers?

***written on my phone so please forgive any grammar issues***By now you must have seen me ramble on and on in varying formats about two of my most beloved characters: Oborro Othello and Lykopis. I've longed for years to find a format and the words to convey my love for these two and their story which has become ce...

The Two Great Lovers: Orc-Claims

The gentle slide of cloth on polished steel. The twitter of distant birdsong. Warm sunlight streams in around the room.A long happy sigh fills the room from the couple curled up on the floor facing the great windows, showcasing the mountain cabin's overlook of the Dissualt Valley far below. Oborro leans over Lykopi...

The Four Dragons, Verse 3

Verse 3, A Killer PerformanceMany, if not all in the Adventuring lifestyle must face seemingly daily challenges that the people who live comfortably in cities, towns, and villages are blissfully unaware and spared of. The challenges of the road are many: freak thunderstorms, rock slides, bridges badly in need of repair...

Update as of Today

As I am now going through a divorce, there will not be any updates here for a while. Apologies to everyone here. If you no longer desire to subscribe, I'll understand. I simply do not have any idea when or if I'll be able to come back anytime soon. My wife was my muse and my best friend; without her I lose ever...

It happened in an instant. One moment, only the line in the sand was between them. Oborro's back was still hunched, his legs balanced as light and spring as he could be, hands spread wide, eyes scanning for any possible opening. He had thought he knew Lykopis' speed, having seen her in battle so many times. The...

"Lykopis, the Mad Queen of RendeHow does one describe madness? Can it be quantified? Is it actions taken in defiance of logic, or simply the lack of it? In the many realms, in all the lands that are Talamh, there is no shortage of those many would call 'mad'. Insane, senseless, unthinking, or just plain old...

We-Haul, Part 3

"So, let me get all this straight." Griggs slammed back perhaps her sixth beer. Eric Harker, just glumly dotted his finger against drops of condensation forming on the outside of the singular glass he was still working on. "You went home.""Yup.""See all sorts of decorations and such up. Love...

The Greatest Bard who Never Lived

"Many people often ask me the meaning behind my apparently 'ever-so-odd' moniker that I most often address myself as. It seems to them either an impossible statement, or perhaps in their mind, a bold overstatement of both my Bardic skills as well as my dramatis personae. To both, I would attempt to lay to r...

He whose Name means Victory

Ajax Kherylon (A-jax Ker-il-ion)A towering wall of red-tinted armor and golden-scarlet scales; a hulking warrior without equal; a terror of the battlefield, implacable, immoveable, and to this day, indestructible. He whose blade has pierced the hides of Dragons, from which he carved out his shield, and whose glowing ye...

The Man with the Axe

The Man pulled the door to his mudroom behind him shut as he exited his small, modest house. The evening air was much cooler than it had been in the daytime; the humidity was still godawful though. Shadows lay everywhere, dimly cast and stretched into grotesque shapes from the numerous walnut and pecan trees dotting hi...

Poll on Revisions

Due to a constant, and never-seemingly ending stream of difficulties in deciding how I want my new novel's first official chapter to go "Verse 2 of the Four Dragons" having to rewrite chapter flow, dynamics, etc again and again, I have decided that I wanted to take a quick poll and see what everyone thought...

The Bard and the Barb

Happy Fourth of July. These two are enough fireworks for me. I don't think even I need to say anything else.

Verse 2, Master of the Four Dragons

No good story truly ever starts at the very beginning. Some of the best tales pick up right in the middle of the action, although the challenge is thus much more complicated. They must not only tell a great, sweeping narrative forwards, they then also face the challenge to suitably grip and captivate the reader enough ...

Announcement

So apparently I goofed and Verse 1 of my upcoming, in the works Novel: the Four Dragons, never actually posted the actual book chapter. This has since been rectified. Read and enjoy to your heart's desire. More character art will be coming as later chapters are released. Thank you all!

We-Haul, mini-series, part 2

“Antonia Kilgrave Griggs, you never mentioned your little Human friend was so cute!”Rolling her eyes, Toni hoisted the futon higher into her powerfully corded arms. The steel frame bit into her thick fur, as she had divested herself of her usual leather jacket from the heat. “Friends don’t talk about friends th...

“The rental charges come to $24.99 per day, plus tax, and miles driven. So…”The clack of keys and scrolling of a mouse interrupted the otherwise humdrum silence. Then came the waiting. The god awfully slow waiting.“Fucking computer…” he muttered. Still not loaded. He didn’t dare press refresh; it always w...

Four Dragons, Book 1, Verse 1

Verse 1, Wolf and Warrior‘The life of an Adventurer is not what the stories make them out to be. It is a hard life, and a grueling one. We might have walked as far as ten leagues today and yet the others are no worse for wear. Meanwhile I, the least experienced of our cadre of campaigners, truly do begin to understan...
