Plans for April 28-May 3
I got another chapter done today! I wasn't sure if it would happen because I was super busy with my audiobook giveaway -- if you haven't commented on the post yet to sign up yet, you have until Sunday! -- and because I went to lunch with my wife for my birthday, but I managed to sneak it in.It's getting re...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 34
Chapter 34There was a line to get into the Crestline Gorge, which was situated inside a pass in the mountain range that surrounded the Ragewater Sea. It actually led into the mountains and was sealed off on the other end, with the entrance having a massive distortion that extended from one side of the gorge to the othe...

Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 33
Chapter 33If there were such a thing as a penthouse suite in the world of Tarth, the Gold-Ranked room he was led to would be it. It had all of the amenities of the Silver-Ranked room back in Forgestone, only more. Bigger bed, bigger bathroom, fancier-looking everything โ it had it all. He knew that it was more expens...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 32
Chapter 32โYou have done well for yourself, this one observes. To the detriment of many of your fellow Contenders in Forgestone, of course.โYouโฆ know about that?he thought, remembering his first encounter with the Support Class Representative back in Ashcleft that made it so he didnโt have to verbally speak. Th...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 31
Chapter 31It wasnโt long before Thaden was forced to make a wide turn to avoid the murdering Contenders walking along the pathway that led toward the city of Rageharbor. He stayed as far away from them as he could, which only amounted to about 500 feet as he skirted edge of the mountain range surrounding the Ragewate...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 30
Chapter 30The sight that Thaden caught as he looked over the edge of the rock pile wasnโt a good one. It seemed as though he was a few seconds too late to help, as the commotion was wrapping up even as he peeked down at the scene unfolding in front of him.A total of 15 Contenders of different races, genders, and Clas...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 29
Chapter 29Thaden didnโt get a chance to check his notifications after traveling through the rest of the forest and finding a place to sleep for the night up in a tree, but he certainly checked them in the morning once he wasnโt tired enough to fall asleep while reading. He skipped over the โmonster slainโ messa...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 28
Chapter 28Expecting to see something similar to the Mausoleum of Despair, which was a massive arena where he was confronted by multiple Mini Bosses and capped off by the extremely powerful Monarch of the Dead Boss, Thaden was in for a completely different experience when he started walking through the tunnel to the Bos...

Chapter 27As Thaden made his way deeper into The Den, he encountered more than just Shadowcoons โ though the theme of the dungeon quickly made itself clear.Ebon Vixen โ MaximalLevel 62Molemurk โ MaximalLevel 65Bringing his portable healing target along, the Lifewarden faced greater numbers of Shadowcoons at first...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 26
Chapter 26Walking down the dirt tunnel entranceway, Thaden was expecting some more magical torches along the walls similar to the Vogmite Tunnels Dungeon, but that didnโt seem to be the case in The Den. Instead, light seemed to shine in from random holes in the ceiling, creating spotlights of illumination that seemed...

Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 25
Chapter 25While he didnโt have a physical map on him, Thadenโs Mentality had allowed him to essentially memorize the maps he had been allowed to study at the Adventurer Coalition in Forgestone. Using his approximate starting location around Northbend, he knew that he needed to head far to the southeast toward the c...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 24
Chapter 24Unfortunately for Thaden, there were no new spells waiting for him when he reached Level 54 nor at Level 57. He still received a spell selection for each of those Levels, as well as another +36 in Mentality and 16 free stat points; he ended up finally taking Major Lifelink and Major Wardlink because he had th...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 23
Chapter 23Securing himself in the crook of the tree he managed to lift himself into, despite the enveloping darkness of the nighttime forest, Thaden sat back and sighed deeply. Getting out of Northbend at night was somehow harder than getting in during the daytime, as more and more people โ both Contenders and Charee...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 22
Chapter 22Leaving Forgestone earlier, the Guards said absolutely nothing to Thaden as he walked out of the gates after an hour of painstakingly climbing over the scattered rubble that used to comprise the buildings in the grand city. Instead, theyโd simply stared at him from atop the walls as he passed through the ga...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 21
Chapter 21Bending over and putting his hands on his knees, Kyler finally stopped running after hours on the road. As he attempted to catch his breath, his heaving lungs filling his ears with their labored inhalation and exhalation, he shifted himself slightly so that he was looking behind him.Nothing. Thank goodness.Th...

Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 19
Chapter 19As much as Thaden wanted to get up from where he had just sat down to confront the Vice-Leader of the Forgestone Adventurer Coalition, his entire body โ not to mention his mind and emotional state โ was exhausted, and not even his righteous anger could get him to his feet. So he had to settle for glaring ...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 18
Chapter 18To say there wasnโt anyone left within the city was technically untrue, as at the far reaches of his vision he could see City Guards up on the walls staring inside the city, standing as still as statues and lit up by the myriad of magical lights in the pre-dawn light. And if he was also being truthful, sayi...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 17
Note: I'm not sure if y'all are ready for this... but here you go:Chapter 17Startled screams echoed through the tunnel as the shaking increased in intensity, to the point where Thaden had to spread his legs apart and balance himself to avoid falling down. He watched as a number of other Contenders nearby tried ...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 16
Chapter 16โYou came.โThaden snorted in annoyed amusement. โOf course I did; you didnโt really give me much choice if I didnโt want to have to start over somewhere new.โCamille looked away from his accusing eyes, as a blush suffused her cheeks. โIโmโฆ sorry about that. I didnโt think I had any other o...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 15
Chapter 15He wasnโt sure if it was some sort of spatial reorganization of the dungeon once he completed it or he had just gotten so turned around while moving through the caves, but when he emerged from the glowing false wall of stone that swung inwards with his touch, Thaden found himself exiting the Magma Dungeon o...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 14
Chapter 14Smiling as he juggled the blue, multi-faceted, crystalline orb the size of a baseball between his hands, Thaden strolled down the large tunnel that led to the different dungeons available in the mountain where Forgestone sat, noticing that even if it was getting late in the day, the crowds of Contenders hadnโ...
Unexpected Healer Book 2 -- Chapter 13
Chapter 13โWhatโ?โThaden was dragged a few feet down the alleyway and pushed up against the wall of the Outstanding Accessories shop. His surprise was so great that he didnโt activate his protective Fields until after his back was against the cold stone of the building, though it did nothing to remove the hands...
