Welcome back! For those of you reading The Runesmith Chronicles for the first time I recommend going back and starting with the first book The Runesmith Chronicles (it's actually Oni and the Farmer but it's too late to change it here :P). Mostly so you have a better understanding of how things like the magic system works and what's going on as I often refer...
Be warned, this chapter is light on the eroticism. ***** So, as one might expect, Nagi are vicious creatures. They're the Gods damned centaurs of the reptilian world, and I hate centaurs. Now, before you ask, yes I found the one I was looking for. The slippery son of a bitch came at me before I could lay eyes on it. Now how, in the hells did this happen? W...

Vera opened the door wearing nothing but a wet towel. "Oh it's you Jake, good thing you didn't just walk in or you'd see me NAKED." "Great. I'll close the door and try again." "Ha! You'd like that Jake wouldn't you? Seeing me naked?" A naughty glint flashed in her green eyes. "So Jake how's come you dumped my sister?" "I didn't dump her. She went back t...
Chapter 1... Despite the out of the way location, and original entrance, the hall is the last thing you'd expect to find there. The chamber is massive, built for one purpose, and used ever so recently for it, although with not so good endings. Above and around the entrance, a safe-house had been constructed to look like a mansion. Its owner, was the female...
“Who is the next patient, Nurse Ratchit?” I asked. “That’s Cratchett, Doctor Livingston. You know that,” the crone replied. “Next you see Sister Agatha. She wouldn’t tell me what her problem was. Please explain to her that I must know these things. And don’t take too long with her. It’s the end of the day; all the other staff and patients are gone. You have...
