§ Scary!! At first, I couldn’t think of anything else. Is that wrong? A completely new world, the only person I knew in it had just vanished, leaving me alone with a stranger. At least, I wasn’t physically uncomfortable. It was a little breezy, but a bright sun warmed the air around us. I think, if the surroundings weren’t so …

§ The fairy warrior circled around, and her companions fanned out to surround the space. Meanwhile, I was wonderin’ why I even bothered in dodgin’. Worst case would have been the very same result as dissolvin’ the image like I had just done. Although, thanks to the simulation of nerves and the like necessary for the [Blood Effigy] to operate …

§ The princess kept throwin’ me suspicious glances throughout the day. At a guess, I’d say I caused it whenever I left her wonderin’ exactly how I would know this or that about her. But I couldn’t come out and explain the reason, because for now, at least until we could get that woman from ancient times into play, I …

§ “I’m not here to teach you magic, though,” the strange captain muttered as I alternated between staring at her, at Miss Mireia, and at my hand, above which I knew for certain that I could now create a [Fairy Light]. Despite having never once done it, I could confidently utter the word while forming within my mind’s eye the …

§ I narrowed my eyes a bit as the princess returned to the tea pavilion.  “Yer just gonna light a grenade an’ toss it at me like that?” I snorted. “You got some unique ideas about teamwork.” She gave me a breezy smile. “I just thought it would be faster that way. You’re up!” I rolled my eyes, but before …

§ Mireia sprang to a sitting position in the bed, clutching her covers to her chest with her eyes wide, then immediately grew baffled as she saw who was sitting on the edge of her bed. “My Lady?” I tipped my head and smiled. “Yes?” “What are you doing here?” With a giggle, I noted, “It’s my bedroom, you know.” …

I’ll be posting one chapter a week, on Mondays, for the rest of March, meaning I’ll be unlocking one chapter per week as well. Hoping to go back to two per week in April. § If a juicy steak, seared to perfection and at a doneness perfectly to your preference appears in front of you and asks you to partake …

My issues continue and I might again have to skip Friday’s chapter. I’ll post a new chapter and unlock the next if I am able to, but you’ve been warned. Again. § We had no honeymoon because of the taboo against celebrations before the one hundredth day after a parent’s death. Instead, my husband and I worked as Viceroy and …

§ Thanks to the situation, we ended up with Mireia sleeping between us, which I suppose wasn’t right from the standpoint of which two out of the three of us were the newlyweds, but the dynamic had been Mireia and myself alternating with Mireia and Rod, so the intersection of two sets, Mireia, naturally wound up in the middle. The …

§ The wedding and banquet went off as planned. Dorian weddings require very little rehearsal on the bride’s part, fortunately. She repeats her lines one at a time as the priest says them, takes her sips from each sake dish after the groom takes his and passes the dish to her, and mostly just looks pretty the rest of the …
