The storm seemed to follow me as I ran, a rain of lightning pouring out of the sky and lancing into the earth around me. Boom! Boom! Tiny and I, with Crinis on my back, continued to scrabble and run, lurching from side to side as we tried to dodge the lightning strikes. How are you supposed to dodge lightning …

 As I watched the gravity bomb spend itself and fade into nothing I turned and sprinted away from the horde. I’d been playing this game with the mage attendants for hours now but this was the first time I actually managed to destroy one. A little nervous at the potential wrath of the Kaarmodo, I decided to get the heck …

Each of my three brains screeched with pain as I condensed more mana into the  gravity bomb. The spell was already dense to the point it had turned dark and now it rotated ominously as it drew more and more mana into itself. I grit my mandibles tight and tried to focus. Much like exercising a muscle until it burned, …

Enid sighed as she stretched out her aching spine. She’d been on her feet for almost two days and she just wasn’t as young as she used to be. If this catastrophe had occurred twenty years ago, she’d have been in much better shape for one, and Derrion would have still been with her. Her heart panged as she thought …

There were small disturbances around the edges of the seething mass of monsters, particularly toward the front and forest sides, the latter of which I couldn’t really make out. When we got in range, I was able to see small groups of ants engaging in a seemingly endless series of running engagements with the horde. Small groups of five or …

[So how many people did you bring?] I led off with. Isaac drew himself up. [I’ve got eighteen o’ the villagers finest, as well as some of me old guards back from Midum. They’ll give a good account of themselves, no doubt about it.] I nodded. [That’s great Isaac, just fantastic. So your thought is to form a spear wall …

After discussing a few other things with the members of the council in the forward HQ, I headed out, collecting my two pets, and made my way to where the delegation from the village was purported to be waiting. I wasn’t entirely clear on how the humans had attempted to communicate with the members of the colony, or why they …

It feels good to be charged up and not on the verge of a horrible death! Whoo! Thankfully we were able to make it to the discreet Dungeon entrance the colony had prepared close to the forward HQ without too much mana leaking out of our cores. Using my sub-minds I tried to turn the external mana manipulation up to …

We slaughtered a heck of a lot of monsters in the third ambush. By abusing the limitations of the control used on the monsters we continuously charged, battled, retreated and recovered until our entire force was battled out and exhausted from the slaughter, unable to keep up with the last retreating monsters. Even Tiny had collapsed to the ground, punched …
