The city of Maralon was well and truly alive and bustling with throngs of Humans peppered with Elves and Dwarves and even the odd half-Orc all milling thickly as they went about their day. Aran wove smoothly through the crowds, his keen senses guiding him through the masses as he made his way down one of the hundreds of cobblestone streets. His direction w...
Bone deep weariness suffused Vidya, from her toes to her bones. She had never felt quite so exhausted before in her life -- even at the worst crunch during her training to join with the space survey. That had been several weeks of training on the Indian lunar colony. She had trained in both hard vac-suits and in mechanical counterpressure suits, and gone thr...
Earth Hillside Lake Dungeon, Ontario August 17, 2019 20:08 EDT I couldn't see what Ben was unhappy about. As on the previous floor, we were standing up on a platform overlooking the room. This time it was a straight shot to the other side rather than a curving room, though the end seemed to be pretty far away. A kilometer at least. Judging by the goblins...
Hello to those who may be reading this, this is the 2nd Instalment in the Xander series. The edited Chapter 1 will be posted at a later stage. It states in the foreword of Chapter 1 that cars are commodities that are available in this world; however, they aren't cars as we know them. Cars in this world are more like 4 wheeled contraptions, that are powered...
I woke up to gentle hands administering to my back. I hissed in pain as a cold dollop of something touched one of my scratches. "Easy, sweetie," I heard Meaghan say softly from next to my ear, "you got cut up pretty badly. I need to apply some antibacterial cream to make sure nothing gets infected." I eased back down into the bed, thinking about the glorio...
~~Natasha~~ "Something... h-horrible?" she said. Art stepped forward into the buildings, into the civilian lobby, and sniffed the air. "Monica told us she found out that, apparently Jack managed to bust his way out of here, and kill a few hunters on the way out. I assume you know more. Can you spare us any more details?" What details could she share that...
Author's Note: A Drow's Dilemma began as a one-on-one roleplaying project and has been converted into a chapter-by-chapter format for weekly posting with the permission and assistance from my partner. It will contain a considerable amount of sexual themes such as femdom, lesbian, straight, 'reverse' rape, BDSM, group sex, romance, and other themes. The mai...
Chapter 11 -- The Master ***** It took two nights for us to finally crest the hill that would lead us to Riften. It was afternoon by the time we'd stabled our horses, and the first thing I wanted to do was see Haelga, as I knew she'd be worried sick about me. Karliah said she'd head down to the cistern, spread the news, and we'd all gather the next day for...
Annie managed to keep calm faced and quiet through a quarter of the meeting. She sat and listened as Dale laid out logistic and organizational missions to the living dead that sat around the table -- listening to them as they responded in turn. The people, the ghosts, the zombies, the revenants that Dale had brought to their headquarters in San Francisco, al...
Note: Ctrl+F ~s~ to skip right to the action. *** Deep in the magic Everwood Forest, far away from the eyes of civilization, the demon was on the hunt. He kept to the shadows of the trees, never making a sound as he stalked his prey, and and when she finally paused her trek he scrambled up an old oak to plan. The demon Ozzumyn would never admit it, but he...
