“You gave her a blessing, my Keeper?” Tsubaki asked in confusion as we appeared near Olympus, having found its position after it teleported to the system. I offered a small nod of my head, smiling. “I’ve never had a true priestess. While I don’t plan to bring her into Olympus or anything like that, I thought that it would be nice to have one in the mortal world. Especially given the recent invasion.” In truth, I had been impressed by Priscilla’s passion and commitment to her duties. Even…-

I shook my head, walking together with Lifre and Tsubaki through the white halls of the research facility. Chelsea had taken the bone wand with her to conduct some additional tests to determine if the wand posed any additional dangers to the facility. Before she left, however, I asked if she would give us tools with which to travel between worlds, similar to Lifre’s dagger. Chelsea didn’t have any problem with that, and immediately produced a pair of golden coins, one for myself and the other for…

“Is that what I think it is?” I asked hesitantly, looking at the ring within the glass display. Chelsea let out a long sigh, nodding her head. “If you think that it’s a ring designed to automatically convert the energy of the void into the four basic types, then undergo the complex fusion process to create raw divinity. In which case, yes. Yes, that is exactly what you think it is.” “I’m feeling that there’s a twist here.” I shook my head, looking back at the small kitsune. “If you…

Fifty years. That is how long it took for the world the full recovery from the previous invasion, including restoring enough of Deckan and Sher Dien’s infrastructure to make them self-sufficient again. I was only made aware of this when I checked the time that had passed after the acceleration had ended. Not far away, Dana and Tsubaki were waiting for me, having arrived near the start of the acceleration. I gave them both a small nod, before focusing as blue light wrapped around my body. Once I arrived…

The recovery efforts were… by no means simple. The easiest part was, by far, ending the quarantine of Fyor, and allowing everyone that had been evacuated to return to their homes. Those that had homes to return to, at least. In most worlds, the property damage was actually fairly minimal, with the apocalypse beasts targeting the people rather than the planets themselves. In truth, only Deckan and Sher Dien suffered a true cataclysm. Both of them needed the work of multiple gods to put their planets in a…

After leaving Leowynn’s room, I found Terra standing outside, a knowing smile on her face. She brought her hands from behind her back, presenting me with a thick book with a black cover. “I heard the whole thing, naturally. I thought you’d be needing this.” I nodded my head, a thankful smile on my face as I led Terra towards the living room. “Right… did Tsubaki miss anything in her report, by the way? I know you’ll have a clearer picture of what happened.” Terra put on a thoughtful…

Dana was left to rest alone in Olympus, Tsubaki having to run out as soon as she delivered Dana to her room. As she laid there, she took a mental count of her casualties. Dana allowed her mind to sink into her shadow world, checking up on Clara and Sienna. The two were resting in their own rooms, both barely able to move. For once, Dana was thankful that her familiars were both clone types, as it meant that they would be protected by the same energy that protected her. That was the very kind of thing…

Aznod clenched his fists as he looked at the city of Ashtanu, forcing himself not to speak. Every whimper or gasp in the city had turned into casualties, and nearly half the city had been destroyed at this point, even with Udona’s warning. He could only imagine how it was on the rest of the planet, not daring to spread his senses out. He looked over at Udona, preparing to comfort her, only for her face to suddenly turn pale. Udona shook her head slowly, looking up. Aznod followed her gaze, but did not…

Mora looked down at the spot where her clone had only just disappeared. She had only had a few minutes to mourn, a show of respect to a warrior worth remembering. Afterwards, she felt something was wrong in the world. The wind began blowing in the opposite direction, and she tried to lift her head to the sky. However, she found her head sinking further down instead. Mora spent nearly fifteen minutes adjusting to what she could only compare to the most sadistic version of ‘inverted controls’ anyone had…

Kal’thrall watched the army closing in around him. For the most part, none of the figures present were able to give him a sense of danger. They felt like little more than insects scurrying around in his sight, and he could destroy them on a whim. However, there were exceptions, those that gave him a faint sense of dread. First and foremost were the three girls that had emerged first. Kal’thrall could feel something almost sinister about the three of them, not to mention the fact that they seemed…
