I had known dark magic was essentially treated like devil’s magic. From what Gus had told me and what little I heard (no one talked about dark magic if they didn’t have to), many liked to pretend it didn’t exist, even while not denying that it did. Because of that, I’d never actually seen what … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 37

Raising a Hero–Chapter 36
When I finally got to the temple, Nehcor’s voice in my mind didn’t sound upset. He explained that he had told me to keep it quiet for as long as possible so as to slow down the timeline of his plan. ‘Things will be picking up now,’ he said. ‘That’s all. Though, still, you probably … Continue reading Raising a Hero–Chapter 36
Raising a Hero–chapter 35
…Sloppy. Sloppy sloppy, god. But, he still had given me a ‘commandment’ so that meant I had to listen through to it to the end. “You know how weird that sounds?” I said. Gus averted his eyes, rubbing a hand on his upper arm. “You know I can tell when you lie, right? Even if … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 35
Raising a Hero–chapter 34
Blessed Fall. Glorious Fall. I could go on and on in praises. So many great things came, I couldn’t stop counting them. First, no more passing out from heat for me! Second, food! Oh gawl, the food was great. The harvest festival was all about food, and then it just kept going. Fresh off the … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 34
Raising a Hero–chapter 33
Another heatwave came through a few weeks later, as though to mock us for appreciating the budding, colder mornings. My white dress served me well, though at some point not even being naked could have saved me. Even though I didn’t have a massive festival crowd to try and keep up with, Derrick, Gus, and … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 33
Raising a Hero–chapter 32
We dropped by the bakery on our way back. And, as luck would have it, the shy, ginger Rights man had the till. He nearly jumped out of his apron on seeing us walk in. “Li-Lillian! It’s been a while.” “Yeah, it has been. Work’s been insanely busy. I’ve only now gotten a break.” Crap, … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 32
Raising a Hero–chapter 31
Business went down with the temperature. I came to learn, with the cooling days, that the green spots on my dress weren’t actually because of my sweat having a weird chemical reaction to the dye, but because the dye itself was a rare, earth magic dye that changed according to temperatures over an extended period … Continue reading Raising a Hero–chapter 31
Daughter of a God
Mother always told me I was the daughter of a god. Uncle Ree always told me what a shame it was that she was a crazy whore, for mother was beautiful. If Uncle Haputt ever heard, I was sure to hear the scrabble of their fighting on the roof. He didn’t like it when Uncle … Continue reading Daughter of a God
Links to Published Books Fixed
I just thought I'd let you all know that I fixed the links and updated them. I put them back up on Amazon too because, you know, I don't have high ambitions for them. They've happened. They're there. They're all $3 and lower, so that's almost an entire gallon of milk! I like milk. Don't … Continue reading Links to Published Books Fixed
Raising a Hero–Chapter 30
It was much cooler outside than it had been in the inn the night before, for which I was thankful. I could feel the heat exhaustion lingering on my limbs and didn’t think I could have made it to the market square if it hadn’t been. Said market square was hardly recognizable once I reached … Continue reading Raising a Hero–Chapter 30
