Crafted by the lands finest stonemasons, architects, mages, designers, and glaziers, the throne room of the Empire of Crystallized Ash was created not only to Emperor Aldwyn, but also to honor the Empire's Goddess, Lumnina. It is here that Aldwyn, and sometimes Thellka, sit and address the numerous concerns and audiences of farmers, soldiers, politicians, trade organizers, and even criminals. 2023-10-16 20:58:29 +0000 UTC View Post
Greetings my wonderful patrons!
I had agonized on how to bring this news to you so many times and even as I write this, I'm honestly unsure of how to properly proceed. Nevertheless, I wish to always be honest and upfront with you guys.
I've decided to end my patreon. Life is taking me in a very strange direction, one that shows me I won't be able to dedicate to this site anymore. No...

Truth be told, Eric wasn't going to save them. Followed by Aesteal, Maeloson, and Liara, the Son of Poseidon bore witness to the heinous acts inflicted upon the locals of a decimated village in Hilvir. Captured, toyed, and ravaged by the dreadful criminal, Saviara of the Twin Mountains, the men and women of Hilvir were left scarred and scared, pleading to any god or devil kind enough to spare t...

Before I go into the new roadmap, I wish to quickly apologize. There were supposed to be more rewards coming, but the usual artists were much slower this time around which pushed me back in more than a few ways. There is one more reward for September coming save for a few minor tweaks. Once its finished, it will be posted.
Now then, onto everything el...

Not many know of Sekria, even less within the Realm of D'orn. There is a simple reason for this as many who encounter Sekria never get a second opportunity to bear eyes to it.
One by one, numerous civilizations fell without explanation. Giant holes, the likes that were never seen before were all that remained in Sekria's wake. Even with its rage abated, the effects of its powerful magic s...

While many dream of the pirate's life, not many understand the measures it takes. Through fun, adventures, trials, and dangers, Eric wondered if his death hadn't been such a loss after all. Granted the chance to right wrongs and correct grievances, never had he imagined he'd amass such dedicated, if crazy lovers.
That said, whether by the trials or the betrayal he'd suffered through in hi...

So I never thought I'd have to make a post like this, but one of the rewards I had coming comes a bit too close to Patreon's Guidelines. Given that I have to spoil it, this deals with the realm of Yyril, the Truthseeker that Eric meets in the novel. As you know, the realm was particularly violent and I'm unsure if I can upload it. Regardless, I thought to at least provi...

Never in their lives would they have considered that they might o...

The City of Nuluk, the only island-city within the lands of the Hæňgaram empire, boasts some of the most sea-faring commerce of any territory. The island was founded in the early history of the empire, named after a minor Hæňgaram sea god, Nulukintaliiyk.
As the empire's only island-city, entrance into Nuluk is heavily guarded by loyal Hæňgaram soldiers that stand patrol on the brid...

Born the noblest house in the empire, Zevmar was destined for greatness. At the age of 5, he was commended amongst his young peers as a flawless duelist. At the age of 10, he mastered the way of the sword. At age 15, he studied the vastness of the mystic arts. Yet, for all the arts he studied, none were as powerful as his proficiency in Light Magic. As Zevmar grew, so too did his popularity amo...

Hello patrons,
This was actually supposed to be given around the middle of the month, but there were quite a few setbacks. Overall, I very much enjoyed granting you a glimpse into Ynro. As we head into July, there will be many more details and insights into the city that will give you all a wonderful walk through the city that houses the palace of the Emperor!

Hello patrons!
While I'd done this already, I sought a bit of a more fantasy design than the last one. At least one a bit more grim looking to denote An'raie's skill as a necromancer and a very powerful one at that. Especially as one who would find a rival in Liara.
