The Royal Challenge “Make no mistake, fear is not respect.” Lady Zohra Sha Calcutta Sha “Enough.” After the pipsqueak finally squealed in frustration, I lifted my hand from the charred doll and saw not a spot on it. I really was enjoying this new way to set people on fire. What was this about healing […]
Aleti Ra’non The Battle Challenge This is what Rom has been training for his whole life, the one challenge everyone thinks he has in the bag. For some reason I’m still worried. This is the only time where he can possibly die, and even though the chances are close to zero I can’t ignore that. […]
The Royal Solitude “Family is a lot of things. Sometimes it is who you share your pain with, but family is its best when it’s who you share your happiness with.” Lady Renho Takeda Lemon Limelight Bam! You must be wondering, ‘did he really hit the wall again?’ Why yes, yes I did, right on […]
Clayton Knight Will to Rule Today is the big day, the Ruleden Tourney. We’re supposed to be in the capital city of Ramone, but to be honest, I can’t say I know the differences between these cities all that well. The turnout really makes the place feel weird. Rivertans among the Riverti and the Watree […]
The Royal Apathy “To be refused by the village is to be refused by the home. Most children break and crumble, but then there are children who grow up to tear the whole world down.” Lady Zohra Sha Calcutta Sha Family, I’m not sure I’ve ever understood what that word meant, truly, at least not […]
Aleti Ra’non Promises I turn the shower dial off, and try to get out before it goes from being scalding hot to frigid cold. It’s broken, no one will fix it because Mom likes it.. This is Mom’s shower. I can’t use the one in Jackal’s old room since I can’t even reach the temperature […]
The Royal Division “In war, everyone is a fool. Everyone makes mistakes, everyone weighs their options, and everyone seems so stupid. Everyone’s a fool… until they win.” Lady Flavia Lexus Potempa Lexus Cutta pulled us aside before she left with Koki, thinking that being there was a distraction to us. I thought it was ridiculous […]
Aleti Ra’non Boot to Ass I sweep for his ankles, but he rolls to avoid me. “What is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with with the sides 12 and 13?” I ask Rom. He turns around to kick towards my head and I bring my arms up to block. Pfft! The first time his […]
The Royal Movement “Live by this motto. You could if you weren’t a fucking coward.” Calcutta Sha, Fist of Kita Khan Calcutta Sha Bam! That made for the… fourth time Poppy went headfirst into the wall? She struggled to get the hang of the teleportation technique and having Koki repeat the process to her over […]
Clayton Knight The Second Plan “So, Terra… is the Tutor working?” I ask. I still think that’s such a dumb and basic name for the thing. “I’m not sure honestly,” he admits to me. It was hard to not be sarcastic. “Wow, how helpful.” His face scrunches at me. “Rom’s learning, but I’m not sure […]
