Wrath’s rumbling forewarned her crushing into our cavern, her flowing mass crossing a vast field of distance in moments. Her dark blue form coalesced into a large amalgam, golden plates of enamel flowing across her shifting body. She gasped out through a telepathic tether, “You already killed Plazia?” I gave her a thumbs-up, “We did. He’s dealt with, and your planet will return to normal after a few days.” Wrath peered down, “But Plazia rests in every corner and piece of the planet.…

Plazia thrummed his fingers against his throne, “That can be arranged, and quite easily so. I have a few furnaces on hand, and I can distribute them out as we make progress towards my goal.” Helios sighed at me. The void ice bearer shook his head, “Elemental furnaces aren’t worth this, Daniel. This is an insane proposition, and you’re running into it without giving it any thought. You will regret this.” The minds in my head swarmed out with a plethora of thoughts. They considered dozens…

I took a step back, and the others did with me. I reached up a hand, and I slid Amara into the portal in a quick swipe. Disappearing into my pocket dimension, Amara didn’t have time to react. At the same time, I reached out a hand that grappled Plazia in an intense gravity well. Plazia hovered off the ground, his body inert yet oozing mana still. Plazia mouthed out, “You’re cautious of me. That’s excellent. Only a fool would trust an eldritch abomination, especially one so close.” I…

Once it landed, I seized the mind’s fragment around my own conscious, smothering it. It reached out with an insidious curiosity, “You who crawls beneath the mantle…Who are you, and how have you not perished amidst my inner sanctum?” I grinned, “Me? I’m Daniel Hillside.” I spread my arms, “And I’m alive because I’m hard to kill.” Plazia’s piece spoke out, “You are difficult to kill, but only now. You’ve lived by the mercy of those around you.” Plazia didn’t…

Helios nodded, opening a warp back to Svia. The calculating albony tilted his head, “Should we burrow down?” I rolled my shoulders, “Let’s.” Taking a stroll back onto Svia, we walked into Reason’s colony right where we left off. Once again, the colony’s drones communicated our presence, the blue bodyguards returning. Reason arrived with them. The elegant and deadly razor queen spread two tendrils of slime out as if they were arms, “What have you decided on?” I raised a hand,…

Florence raised a hand while stammering, “Uh…that’s an exaggeration, right? Hyperbole? Perhaps a saying I don’t understand?” I winced, “Or Plazia’s a fortress caliber eldritch. That’s a bad situation.” Florence’s fur bristled over his skin, and he took sharp breaths. I pulled the Rise of Eden over our group, the augmenting aura calming him down. Behind me, another person panicked as well. Well, monster, but either way, Amara gasped in shock. She took a step back, pointing her…

The cloud warped, wisping to a singular point of water. That liquid plopped to the earth, my view of the sun cleared. I gawked at the display, the range of my abilities far exceeding what I believed of them. Dwelling on what I was capable of, I allowed my mana to effuse ever so slightly. The air around me blurred from it, the dimension around me warping. I hoped Plazia was ready for me. Because I was ready for him. An hour later, and I prepared for the Ahcorus’s homeworld with my team. Most of…

“You’re right. I spoke with him about being contracted under the Empire. I wanted to buy out the contract, along with his village. What’s your price?” A sly grin cropped up on the Emperor’s scarred face, “Oh, Tera? He’s not for sale.” I leaned back, “What? Of course he’s not for sale. I’m talking abofut the contract.” Obolis rolled his eyes. “The difference between the two is negligible. Tera is an enormous pool of potential value, and while I understand your misgivings…

I pointed Tera towards the set of stairs leading to Torix’s lair. Tera followed me in a nervous trot. Once up the stairs, we found Torix still reading with his eyes plastered to a book. Little did he know I did the same. I waved a hand at the lich, “Hey, do you mind casting your silencing magic over one of the rooms in the temple? Maybe one with a view?” Torix raised his hands and snapped his fingers, “On the uppermost floor, third room on the left.” I thanked him before Tera and I walked…

I leaned back while opening my arms wide, “What? You don’t remember me? I guess it’s harder with my helmet on.” Tera’s eyes narrowed while he searched his memories, many thousands of people popping up in them. He shook his head, “You’re not like many I’ve met if anyone.” “I’m Daniel Hillside. You helped me with getting access back into the system because I was messing around with the cipher.” Tera’s eyes glazed over, and they stayed that way for a few seconds. As I began…
