It was a cold and dreary day when Cobal, Mana, Diana and their small caravan of servants drove into Saphestan. The streets reflected the snowy weather by feeling chilly and empty. Cobal shivered in the back of their carriage. Diana insisted they’d travel with their family’s carriage as the announcement they brought to the capital … Continue reading Vol 4: Chapter 30 – Return of the prince

Soul Eater
The shonen manga genre is one that is very near and dear to my heart. It’s what I was first introduced to when I was younger and it’s a genre that I’ve always enjoyed, despite its flaws. And one of the major flaws of many shonen manga is the pacing of the story and the … Continue reading Soul Eater
Vol4: Chapter 29 – Divine Intervention
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 Backlog
It’s something that many of us struggle with, the dreaded backlog. This can be the movies or shows you still want to watch, the books you still want to read or the games you still want to play. There’s many other things that can be on your backlog of course, but I reckon these are … Continue reading The Backlog
The burden of fun
It’s almost September again, the summer break that us teachers get that feels like it lasts forever to get to also is over in a flash. I suppose I shouldn’t complain since 6 weeks in a row is much more than most anyone else gets, but I definitely need the first 2 or 3 of … Continue reading The burden of fun
Vol4: Chapter 28 – The future
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
The new Blink182
A quick post today about some music. I’ve been going around lately discovering a lot of new music. I got into Sleep Token, Ghost, the Kpop movie, and of course - although not new - Yungblud’s album Idols. I’ve also made a habit out of clicking on songs in my recommendations that look interesting. So … Continue reading The new Blink182
Vol4: Chapter 27 – A hero’s return
“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
Taskmaster
Five comedians, one Taskmaster, one little Alex Horne and a whole bunch of nonsense. That probably is enough to describe the format of one of the most fun British panel shows out there. Having had this blog for coming up on five years now, it’s a wonder that I never dedicated a post to this … Continue reading Taskmaster
The Hesitant Hero – August Update
Here we are, in August of the fourth year of The Hesitant Hero. I had no real expectations I’d ever spend as much time in this world as I have when I first started writing the initial ideas down on paper in late 2021. The only thing I really knew for this story was that … Continue reading The Hesitant Hero – August Update
