HK: Prologue
I sat up, blinking as if I had just had an out-of-body experience. I couldn't really see much, as there wasn't much light. What I could see, however, was that I was in a cave of some kind. Straining my brain, I could not for the life of me figure out who I was or how I had gotten here, only ...
OG: Chapter 46
As my force charged forward, I saw that the Corpsecaller wasn't completely abandoning the siege to turn about and fight us. Instead, it had left its pale, corpse-white, Bray Shaman in charge of keeping Anders and what troops remained in Vimera penned in. Of course, as we were the larger threat, ...
RM: Chapter 113
As it turned out, the Messenger was a teenager, perhaps four or so years younger than I was, with dirty brown hair and a forgettable face. He wore a leather jerkin and brown breeches and carried a leather satchel. In short, if not for the lack of tongue and chalk slate hung about his neck with a pie...
EV: Chapter 29
I waited in the Attack Configuration Tel'tac Xiǎo Qílín for word from Chen's infiltration group that he had stormed the Shield Generator Control Room of the Jinta Tower. The Xiǎo Qílín was cloaked some thirty thousand feet above the top of the tower, where Asteria's Throne sat in t...
HL: Images of Jackie's Initial NYC Rogue's Gallery
All right, so here we see the first images of the rest of the Professor's Superpowered Gang. Between himself, Skeletos, Yara, The Salamander, and Killer Frost, The Professor actually has one of the most stacked organizations in the City in terms of Supervillains. At least at the moment, anyway. ...
BES: Interlude: Battle of Kuju
Uriyangkidai and the Main Mongol Army had crossed the Yalu and entered Goryeo. There were thirty thousand troops in the army, three Tumen, troops from as far afield as Novgorod and Kiev had ventured out to join the army that had mustered for the attack on Goryeo. It was a stunning sign of the Vastne...
HPLN: Interlude: Assault on Ptolemais
Ptolemais was one of the five cities of the Cyrenaican Pentopolis that made up the Cyrenaican Heartland, along with Barca, Appolonia, Euesperides, Tauchira, and Cyrene itself. Appolonia had been captured by Pyrrhus and acted as the port of Cyrene, but Ptolemais was another of the three principal por...
MM: Images for Chapter Fifty-Eight
All right, so here we have the images for the last chapter. It's most of the key players on Jan's end of things, plus some new Ultron Stuff that they ran into when assaulting the Autofactory in the ruins of Vērmane Garden. These were, funnily enough, somewhat easier to get out than usual. I...
HL: Chapter 34
Jackie made his way over to the top of a nearby building where Power Girl was waiting for him. It was some kinda Bank or financial services office or some shit like that, complete with a helipad for the Corporate Types to take off and land on. Power Girl'd touched down in the middle of the helip...
WAB: Chapter 10
Over the course of the next couple of months, most of my time was dedicated to training. In large part, this was because I had enough Ryo thanks to my several bounties and high-ranking missions that I could afford it. Not only that, but with the Village at least temporarily at peace, it wasn't q...
BBG: Chapter 45
The next morning, we woke bright and early, still wounded, though less so than we had been at the close of our Ankheg Adventure. After waking, bathing, and dressing, we all gathered together in Jaheira and Khalid's room at the Drunken Silverling, and Jaheira and I made to heal what we could with...
BBG: Images for Chapter Forty-Four
All right, so here we have the images for Chapter Forty-Four. Mostly it's the Ankhrav and a bit of setting decoration for the Ankheg Tunnels. I'm still not a hundred percent on the Ankhrav Chamber, though. I imagined it a lot larger. However, the AI Generator does what it does, so I have to ...

F&L: Chapter 64
I sat outside Headmaster Dumbledore's Office, frowning at the carved door as Harry met with the Headmaster for whatever meeting he was having. The Elderwood Door with its carved image of Merlin sleeping beneath the tree stared back at me, and I couldn't help but heave a sigh at the whole sit...
NT: More Compass and Clock Images
All right, so here we have a few more images for the Compass and Clock. This should be everything that's been mentioned so far, though it isn't all of it. There's still more Crossover Things to come, after all, plus the Hall of Trials in Bellona's Arena and a couple of other bits of ...
RM: Interlude: The Reaping of the Sparr
Most of the Iron Isles had been pacified in the past couple of months of fighting. Rodrik the Reader, Harlaw of Harlaw, and his reformers had largely been successful in the fighting at the pivotal Battles of Pyke and Pebbleton, which had cut the head off the Traditionalist Faction and destroyed the ...
NT: Chapter 106
Barter's shop turned out to be situated in a corner near an alleyway in Ayizan's Bazaar. It was built into a small nook in the monolithic stonework and seemed to be chock-full of various items that were both fantastical and technological in nature, many of which seemed to be unknown to me, b...
JB: Chapter 19
As I janked to the side, avoiding the Atomic Skull's blast, I let off a Ki blast in reply, forcing the Atomic Skull to leap out of the way of the beam. That was what I'd been hoping for, and I rushed forward, angling my charge to slam a flying knee strike into the Atomic Skull's side. Th...
BBG: Chapter 44
As we made our way down into the open wound in the Earth that was the Ankheg Pit, I couldn't help but frown. It was far too quiet for what it should be. Normally, you would hear something from a nest of such creatures, buzzing, chittering, even just the shuffling of a multitude of legs would be ...
MM: Chapter 58
Vērmane Garden had originally been a truly green space. The first public park in Riga, Vērmane Garden had originally been constructed in the days of the Russian Empire, in the aftermath of Napoleon's failed invasion of Russia and his subsequent Exile to the Isle of Elba. It had weathered the b...
HL: Interlude: Wu Ping's Revenge
Bruce Wayne had done the best he could have in the circumstances. Obviously, he couldn't just let Jackie Yuen stay in Gotham, not after the article Vicki Vale wrote practically advertised him as a new nemesis for half the Superpowered Criminals who had been feuding with Superman before his untim...
BBG: Images for Chapter 43
So here we have the images for the last chapter. Some of these were more difficult to get the AI Image Generators to spit out than others. For instance, the Image Generators kept wanting to put a cowboy hat on Dirk for some reason. I'm still not super-happy with how the Ankheg turned out, but it...
F&L: Chapter 63
I frowned as I saw the message, knowing that people would begin to speculate on the identity of the Heir of Slytherin. Indeed, I could already hear murmuring as students questioned what the message meant, and other, older, or more in-the-know students filled the others in on what exactly the Chamber...
F&L: Images of Current Antagonists
Here we have images for some of the antagonists for the alternate Chamber of Secrets. As noted, the Basilisk is a lot closer to the Mythological Version than Rowling's Big Snake, in keeping with my attempts to fix and expand upon her shit worldbuilding for this story. Thankfully, getting the AI ...
NT: More Compass and Clock Images
All right, so here are some more images of the Compass and Clock and various people and beings therein. Most of these were a lot easier to get the AI Image Generators to spit out than the last batch of images I tried, thankfully.At any rate, the next chapter will include the meeting with Barter and ...
NT: Chapter 105
As we drank our drinks at the Bar, I couldn't help but notice the clientele that joined us was a touch demi-human. Not that this was a bad thing, mind you, but when most of the Demi-Humans that my current companions knew of tended to be Demons or at least have demon blood, you never could tell. ...
