https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bgYxPmD_Z7N8aeM0fetYR1OS-edlaxJMhMTqaE8spmM/edit?usp=sharingOutnumbered and exhausted as I am, the smart move would be to keep quiet and rest for as long as possible while formulating a plan of action, but I am not a smart man.“So,” I begin, if only to break the unnerving silence of the last handful of seconds, “Been here long? See any of the sights? I’v...

Decades, if we’re being honest, because the logical, scientific part of my brain is having a real conniption about how none of this makes sense. I had a Natal Sea in my Natal Palace, both of wh...

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YlrkRcy9ik9JqneD_MSCLd2K7Y7s5O3lLceOM1H084Y/edit?usp=sharingThere is no time for thought or deliberation as I roll and dive about the sands, avoiding a flurry of kicks and stomps that might well squash me flat.Say what you will about Zhen Shi, but from what I’ve seen thus far, he’s a sub-par Warrior at best. While he’s fast as lightning and hits like a tru...

Chapter 808 V.2
I'm super behind again, because writing these last ... 10? 20? chapters has been difficult. Fun, rewarding, engaging, but oh so very difficult. Like I'm sitting at +1 chapter complete right now, meaning after this one, I have zero completed chapters, when I should have another 4. So to fix this, instead of taking a longer break, I'm just gonna cut back to two chapters a week until I...

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vRBvCabdNTmnt2Sur-0Dl0nIX9fs_saEvNorcHIFQjM/edit?usp=sharingThere is no cure for regret, but also no cure for stupidity, and here in Shi Bei, I have been stricken by both.Regret because I knew Zhen Shi was lurking nearby but didn’t put enough effort into finding him before now.
