Chapter 8

You take a deep breath, recognizing you're acting against your own better interest. You lean forward, your hands clasped shut together "I could make the potion, but I refuse. I also owe you a confession, of sorts. I made a love potion, to be given to you. She is afraid that you...

Chapter 8

"If you really want to win this woman's heart Jalen, it would be prudent that you start with actually listening to her." "What do you mean?" His confusion was infuriating, but the habit of men thinking they know the minds of women has been all too common, even among elves "I me...

Chapter 14

There was quite the commotion outside the next morning. Nobody had been aware of the threat on your lives, which meant the corpse hanging off the side of the building all the more shocking. He had been a familiar face to many of the area, and not a welcome one. That nobody had bo...

Chapter 5

In a corner, near the stairs to the rented bedrooms, sits a hulking orc, going through a hefty share of ale, smoking a pipe. Everyone seems to understand to keep distance from him. Even the barmaid keeping him only puts his drink at the opposite end of the small table...

Chapter 6

You decide it best to give the drunken orc his space while he nods off to sleep. With the amount of ale in his body, he could still have a fiery temper, but if you suspect he'll probably drop like an anchor once he heads up. While waiting for that, you decide to bide some time, f...

Chapter 8

The Captain's talk of being a day's sailing away was, frankly, ambitious. With an agreeable wind and a worthy crew, that might have been possible, but the wind started working against the ship almost as soon as it had taken off. Worse, there were other greenhorns among the crew i...

Chapter 15

"Achita and the others have no loyalty, clearly" You say derisively "to country, or each other. They might be convinced to join you, or prove useful in some other way later on. The same can't be said for the crew here." You look over the men dedicated to the enemy ship. "Afraid t...

 You walk through the inescapable darkness, knowing you have no direction but forward. You've been here before, at least in spirit. Your family had been farming on the frontier of the kin...

Chapter 8

Even if you can't return to the clan that took you in all those years ago, you by no means have to accept the world you reside in. They took you in against your will, and they will pay for that. They will also pay for killing your loved ones, but that will come later. For now, yo...

Chapter 14

Even you were feeling the twinge of anxiety and fear as you approached close enough to the camp to hear the orcs within. Getting this far was the easy part. The Chief could easily have you all killed, and there'd be no real chance of you surviving this time. The presumed chief st...

Chapter 13

"I challenge you to a race" you state clearly to the warlord, pointing your route "From here, to the old gates, and back. You on your war mount, and me on mine" The challenge was met with heavy laughter in the pack. Even the wargs seemed amused at the idea. As you looked behind...

Chapter 14

Much could be said of the orc way of life. You've spent most of your life learning of the negative traits. What was never said, and what you and the Queen are quickly discovering, is their willingness to find reasons to celebrate. No sooner had their leader agreed to terms and re...

Chapter 15

"I don't know how we'll ever manage it" The Queen said, arms crossed as she looked over the ruined kingdom she now claimed to rule "We could spend the next two hundred years trying to rebuild, and it would still feel like we were living in a crypt". "There are options, Your Maje...

Chapter 2

You stand away from the mirror in order for all of your large frame to be seen in it. As a male Orc, you stand tall and proud over nearly all other races, and your form is a specimen to behold. Not an ounce of unnecessary fat anywhere, your muscled body could easily be the standa...

Chapter 4

Instinctively, you peace together that this is not just a fight of survival, but of showmanship. Even if you win, you could be put to if you don’t make for good entertainment. Attacking the champion, while the greatest challenge, would court the greatest favor and be the be...

Chapter 5

A group of attendants rush out in a flurry of activity. Some of them are teenaged boys and young men, scrawny and sparely clothed. Some run to carry the former champion from the pit of the arena, others run to put the redhead on her feet and attempt to heal her wounds. There were...

Chapter 7

You know precisely what you want. It'll make life more difficult for The Boss, which makes it even better for you. The worst case scenario is he'll say no, so you have nothing to lose. You're also not afraid of negotiating or your position here. "The human who was fighting today...
