Chapter: 633 - Just Rewards
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala had to restrain Lea marginally as she had the girl wrapped in her arms. Tala’s own aura and authority smoothing and soothing without actually controlling or interfering with Lea’s attempts to regain control, her willpower and self-restraint having to contain and corral not only her body, but now her magics as well, ensuring that it was a harder task than she’d expected.It had been years since Lea had lost control to the berserk state, but to be fair, it had been years since she’d been seriously hu...

Chapter: 632 - The Fox at Midnight
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala had left the gate open to Ironhold, anchored to the wagon that it had been with all that day. Doing so meant that they didn’t really have access to their sanctum—as Kit couldn’t spread her various parts out too much—but that was fine.Kedva, Brandon, Adrill, and their assistants could enter and exit the sanctum at will, so if something was needed while the core Sappherrous family were gone, it could be acquired, and they weren’t leaving those within the sanctum trapped there.The Sappherrouses did...
Arcane Lands! <Inquiry, Spoiler Warning>
Hello!Mild spoilers, but I hope you see it as worth it.Tala will be returning to the Arcane lands in the near future, and I am asking for your desires for her return. (Please comment below.)For Example:Side characters you want to see again? Plot threads you feel need a re-touch? Things that were only mentioned briefly that you think should show up in truth?Any and all suggestions/requests are welcome and desired, even if they aren't used! 😁😋Thank you, once again, for your readership and support!Best Regards,J.L.Mullins

Chapter: 631 - Waning
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala looked out on the all-but-empty city with a mix of excitement and sadness. It was the final day, and while there were ten thousand souls still within the bounds of the City Stone’s well of power, they were clustered at the core of the city.The fringes of its protective influence were ragged to Tala’s threefold sight, on the edge of shearing through.The great magics within the city were teetering on the edge of ticking over to their final phase, those which began the preparations for the next city to b...

Chapter: 630 - Together at the Waning
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala watched, being held back by her own will but still appreciating Rane’s hand on her shoulder, reminding her not to interfere.They stood on the plains outside of Alefast, Waning, their daughter walking toward a rather aggressive seeming thunderbull.-I mean… is there any other kind?-No… I suppose not. They aren’t quite as human-hating as many arcanous and magical creatures, but they aren’t exactly warm and cuddly.Lea had proven her restraint time and time again over the last six months, and that me...

Chapter: 629 Bonus - Automata
Previous__________ToC__________NextLea practically danced as she moved down the streets of Alefast, Waning.It had been two days since the celebration for her fourth birthday had concluded, and the last of the out of town guests had departed, but that was only to be expected.She’d enjoyed the time with each of them, and a bit of her was sad at the departure, but it was genuinely hard for her to feel too bad given where she was.She was out.She’d earned freedom.She didn’t begrudge her parents their caution; she’d chosen into it herself ove...
Chapter: 629 - Celebration: Day Three, End
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala and Rane led the group out into Alefast, Waning on the third and final day of their celebration of Lea's birthday.Lea had more than proven herself over the past days, at least in mundane interactions, and the girl was practically skipping as she moved among the other celebrants, chatting and enjoying her time with them.Tala and Rane kept their aura extended around her. It wouldn’t be enough to stop the girl if something went catastrophically wrong—not by itself—but they should be able to mitigat...

Chapter: 628 - Celebration: Day Two
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala was relaxing with Rane, and it was well into the second day when her daughter sought Tala out, seemingly with something weighing on her mind.The night previous, Tala and Rane had moved the whole party back to Alefast, Waning, in order to ease the facilitation of the rest of the celebration.The goodbye with the Zuccats had taken the latter part of the previous evening, with everyone wishing to bid them farewell.Now? They were just… gone.Tala was still internally wrestling with that reality when Lea sat d...

Chapter: 627 - Celebration: Day One
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala’s whole family arrived slowly, coming into her sanctum as usual, despite Bandfast’s more-than-functional teleportation tower.She smiled at that, remembering her own arrival in Bandfast as a new graduate. As she considered that, she recalled how many of her siblings had arrived in her sanctum rather than the Bandfast teleportation tower.Did I take something from them? Lessening their experience by giving them such a familiar and familial landing?-Lessen? I think not. Change? Absolutely, but wasn’t th...
Chapter: 626 - Earning Trust
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala, Rane, and Lea’s first real break from constant monitoring came a bit after Lea’s second birthday when Fedir came back from the Academy. Unfortunately, there was less of a collective desire to have a true ‘reunion’ since Illie’s passing just more than two years earlier. Even so, Tala and Rane sponsored any who wanted to come, allowing many of the siblings to meet Fedir in Alefast, Waning, where he kindly agreed to visit on the way to his new master.The fact that Tala and Rane could ‘power thro...

Chapter: 625 - Learning
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala willed herself, Rane, Lea, and Mistress Holly into their sanctum, specifically, a far-flung meadow, well away from anything precious or easily destroyed.They’d discussed this earlier, and Mistress Holly had insisted that the ignition happen in a controlled space. She then further stated that she would not be the one in control of the space.Thankfully, as no one resisted—and Mistress Holly’s workshop’s odd, artificial closeness with Kit was still in effect—they moved without issue.As they arrived...

Chapter: 624 - Lea's First Schema
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala sat in the same inscription room in which she’d received her first set after the Academy. She and Mistress Holly were examining what would be Lea’s inscriptions as illusory lines on an equally illusory image of the girl.It spun at their gestures, zooming in where they needed before returning to a more high level view.Taken holistically, the schema was on the sparse side, partially made more so by how fine the inscriptions were overall. But that was to be expected given the magics already in the girlâ€...
Chapter: 623 - Always One More Secret
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala and Rane both felt that they had years of insights revealed in the ignition of the city script. In talking about it later, they also both came to the conclusion that if they hadn’t been Paragons, it might have been useless to see as much as they did.That made them excited to watch another ignition in the future, once they’d achieved their Reforging.They also agreed that the memory of the event didn’t seem to hold the same weight as experiencing it. Well… that wasn’t quite true. In reviewing thei...

Chapter: 622 - Ignition
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala and her family passed the next weeks—waiting for the ignition of the city’s magics—in intensive training and preparation for the future.Lea studied momentum at a deeply theoretical level as well as increasing her understanding of the world in general and magic in particular. She also sparred with anyone and everyone she could convince to meet her in a clash. Though, she only pulled from those in the sanctum or Ironhold.She lost essentially every bout given her lack of overt magic and very shallow we...

Chapter: 621 - Inscriptions Please?
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala and her family bid the city administrator goodbye and headed back toward where their sanctum waited, just stoneward of superficial.As they walked, Lea was unusually quiet. She would occasionally look toward things of interest, but she lacked much of her standard exuberance.Even so, Tala and Terry were content simply being silent as well, the two of them enjoying quiet more than the others. Rane, however, worked to tease out words from their daughter.She responded well enough to his promptings, but it was ...
Chapter: 620 - Archon Compound
Previous__________ToC__________NextLea was still licking her fingers clean as the Sappherrous family finally arrived at the Archon Compound in the central ring of the new city.Tala was sometimes amazed at just how large cities were in the early stages. It hadn’t been difficult to get to the center, but compared to Alefast, Waning, it was huge.The central ring was largely empty, as it would be mostly composed of residential and administrative facilities. There were some businesses and other amenities as well to serve those within, and those ar...

Chapter: 619 - Dangers
Previous__________ToC__________NextTala and Rane sprinted toward the disturbance, Lea right behind them. Terry was already flickering ahead, engaging the threat.In hindsight, they should have realized that their quick action wasn’t absolutely needed. The very fact that mundanes had time to scream at a threat meant that it wasn’t in their realm of power. Still, it was good to help where they could.Odd vines of hairy flesh lay eviscerated across the cobblestones, the seemingly mundane dog that they had apparently grown from was pinned to the ...
