Chapter 367 - Interesting Distractions
--AN--And we're back!For those who are curious, the Wedding was great. We had some people staying with us throughout the week, which made writing difficult, along with everything else that being involved with a wedding entails. Iappreciate the break, but I'm ready to get back into things.Enj...
Chapter 366 - Possibilities
ChrisSomewhere in the NorthIt was with a certain amount of excitement that I ventured forward. Sure, the past hadn't been all that fun in the grand scheme of things, but it had led me here, and that amounted to something at least.My excitement stemmed from a few reasons, but the main one, and by...
Apologies
Sorry for the no chapter yesterday, and sadly today. I've been dealing with a massive migraine that just won't go away. I tried to write anyway but just couldn't get a chapter out. I'll probably take tomorrow off as well, but I will be back to posting regularly on Monday.Again, I apo...
Chapter 365 - Differences and Ideas
MilesWilderness outside of FrostheimIt felt like a decade had passed since the first time he had made the journey to Frostheim, but it had only been a few years. If that, really. His life had changed so much in such a short time, for good and bad, that it was hard to truly grasp the extent of the pe...
Chapter 364 - Ponderings
ChrisNear the Arctic CircleIt was getting colder, which was a boon in more ways than one. The gradual shifting of the seasons made it difficult to distinctly feel the changes from day to day.It was there, obviously. I felt less invigorated and less free as winter fell away for spring, and that feeli...
Chapter 363 - The Assembly
The AdmiralNew NorfolkHe stood and watched as all of the nobles arrived. There was no need to check their titles once again, as that was done before they even set foot in the city. No, he was watching for a different reason.Fitzwallace was no stranger to the subtleness and covert nature of what coul...
Chapter 362 - On the Road Again
ChrisNorth of FrostheimSo far, as my steps took me farther and farther from home, it didn't feel anything like the last time I had done this. Last time, years ago, I had left at the start of winter, in the middle of a snowstorm, after weeks of snowfall that had accumulated up to my mid-thigh.Now...

--AN--Sorry about the no chapter Friday, something unexpected came up. It's been resolved, so we should be fine going forward.~~~The AdmiralNew NorfolkThe Admiral sat in his office and thought about all of the reports that had been brought to him over the last few hours. With the last of the inv...
Chapter 359 - Preemptive Fear
VanessaNew Norfolk"My Lady, Rachel is calling for you," Michael informed her.About time. She'd played her game of delaying, but they both knew the deal was going to get signed. Vanessa knew they wouldn't give up the chance at what she was offering, and they knew they wouldn't get...
Chapter 358 - Mutual Defense
RachelNew NorfolkHer mana rushed out and swept through the generous lodgings they were given after the escort stepped away. The man was strong, but not nearly at a level to threaten her. That didn’t mean he was weak, not in the slightest. He was firmly in the D-rank with quite a few levels under h...
Chapter 357 - Frostheim Arrives
HendricksNew NorfolkThe day was going even worse than he expected it to. Surprisingly, it was the waiting that was killing him at the moment, not dealing with egotistical assholes. Luckily, the biggest one had stayed away, deciding that the Assembly was beneath him.The Stormbringer sent back a very ...
Chapter 356 - Epilogue: Spring Thaws
~~AN~~This chapter may seem familiar to those who were here before the rewrite, but it's been changed enough I recommend re-reading it, especially Vasaria's portion. The lore added will come in useful later.~~EarthFive Years After the ChangeThe Essence thickened as the Planet's Core grew...
Chapter 355 - Refreshing and Exhilarating
ChrisFrostheimThat seems like a dangerous two-way road. From what I was reading of [Tyr's Judgement], it didn't influence the fight in any way; it only demanded that it happen. While I was confident in fighting almost anything one-on-one, that didn't mean there wouldn't come a time w...
Chapter 354 - New Warden and Honor's Demands
ChrisFrostheimMy hammer came down for the final time, and I felt the essence flow through me. Usually, it would then leak out as I was capped on how much I could hold without evolving, but that wasn't the case this time.I could feel it seeping through [Frostborn Constitution]. [Body of a Frostbo...
Chapter 353 - Final Step Before D-rank
ChrisGlacier BayIt's time.I thought about the unassuming wooden box waiting for me back in Frostheim that had been with me for far too long. I had waited, and waited, and waited, trying to push for more, and the day had finally come.With the deal with Lakeshore coming to a close, and what felt l...

Chapter 350 - Lordly Promotion
ChrisFrostheimThe build-up the following day was missing the usual tension. It was one of the first times a muster was called for that worry didn't accompany it. After all the fighting and battles the army had been through, this felt like just another day in the office.Gabe, with sufficient moti...
Chapter 349 - Pylons and Factions
ChrisFrostheim"I don't get it," Annabeth mumbled, "You become a Viscount if we upgrade the pylon? How does that work? I thought you had to be promoted by a King or something."With my return and a small return of normalcy that came with it, my training of my young niece resumed. S...
Chapter 348 - Pinnacle
ChrisFrostheimThe meeting with Alaric didn't end up taking that long. The haggling was tame, compared to the few other times I'd seen Jonathan engage in it. From what I could tell, both Merchants weren't trying to go for the throat.The only reason I could see for not doing so was to incr...
Chapter 347 - Black Rose
ChrisFrostheimYou can't fight life, nor the changes it brings. As much as I wanted to, it was a futile endeavor. It was time to buck up and hop to, not keep running away, uselessly hoping the problems would somehow go away.List of To-dosMeet with Sophia, Grace, and Abigail to discuss Frostheim&#...
Chapter 346 - Kicking and Screaming
ChrisFrostheim"Ah, home sweet home." I exhaled a breath that pleasingly turned into a frosty mist, as it was right to do in the cold. The worst of the season was behind us, sadly, but the tail end of it was still shaking its fist. Even if it was the last week before Spring."You still hav...
Chapter 345
ChrisLakeshoreTwo months. That was how long it took to make sure everything was set and ready. I could have left earlier, but that was 'unproductive to long-term morale and unity'. The citizens of Lakeshore, or what was left of them, were inordinately fearful of us.Fearful of the wilderness....

Edward HalsteadSt. LouisThe map hung on the wall with all kinds of different notes or pins stuck upon its surface, but nearly every one was ignored in favor of one.

MaeveLakeshoreAnd so the show ends, she thought, staring down at Victor's headless body. From the start, she had known the outcome of this particular story. She'd seen the man fight on more occasions than Victor had.While he was holed up in his mockery of a City, Maeve had been at the Gather...
Chapter 342 - Sorry Sights
ChrisLakeshoreFor a time, all I heard was the clash of metal on metal or the loud explosions of magic. After experiencing the difficulty level of what the defenders could express, I was in no hurry to rush back and finish things.My mana was tapped out, and my body was still throbbing from the burns....
Chapter 341 - Consequences
ChrisA cold so deep and primal exploded out of the Rift and quickly gathered everything nearby in its grasp. The entire city block that had quickly been set alight was now snuffed out with prejudice.There would be no flame in the face of what came out of the rift.The snow dumped through like an aval...
Chapter 340 - Rift and Fear
VictorHow was it possible for things to go so poorly? To have everything turn on its head and do the opposite of expectation? How the FUCK was it possible for ONE man to break down the gates like he was hitting a particularly sturdy piñata?This is before he evolved? Hell, what would have happened a...
