Entering the colorful and familiar home of Miyara the seer, the atmosphere was much lighter than Mana and Cobal had anticipated. Visiting someone who was on their deathbed wasn’t an easy task in the best of conditions, but knowing that the person in question had a reason to call them over in their final moments … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 29 – Divine Intervention →

The sun was long gone and the only thing still lighting their pathway along the beach was the moon and the stars. Mana once explained to him that - as least in her world - the moon didn’t actually have any light coming from it directly, but only reflected the light from the sun which … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 28 – The future →

“You didn’t have to come out here to greet us,” Cobal said to Guthir.“Nonsense, you have done us a great service.”“Maybe you should take his advice father, you know how hard it was to push this wheelchair all the way to the pier?”“A bit of exercise is good for you, you spend all day behind … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 27 – A hero’s return →

The strange buzzing noise that the screen made faded as the image itself disappeared. Silence filled the mage’s tower as the four of them were rattled by what just happened.

Sitting around the wobbly table in the sand were representatives from each camp. Eliana and Fareh were joined by Bartew and Kenar. Mana, Cassandra and Cobal sat opposite them as … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 23 – The key to the tower →

Oops, I forgot to properly schedule this post and it didn't go through. Apologies for the short delay “While you were off flirting with nobility, I did some hard work here on the island,” Mana proclaimed, after coming up from the water. She quickly put a towel over her shoulders. “It’s freezing down there, I’m … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 22 – Found what was lost →

As Cobal spent most of his time lost in thoughts, with far too much to process about different aspects of his life that were very quickly unraveling into something out of his control, he put his efforts into training his sword fighting. He’d picked up many different pieces of advice over the past year and … Continue reading Vol 4: Chapter 21 – Back to the island →
