We're starting a little something different, somewhat in the spirit of the NaNoWriMo, since we're a writing site it seems appropriate to take the opportunity to motivate each other to have some fun and earn some medals by starting and completing...

New Subforums
So, one of the things that has changed in the new site is that the new PSF is visible to everyone. This provides us an opportunity and so, this morning I've created some subforums in there - for completed / approved threads....

In her small office room, the steward known as Saeri LaChasse was toiling away at a report. It went over the details of her last patrol with her little dysfunctional squad of knights, something that sadly was one of the tasks of a...
”Perhaps we should use something else“, Doran suggested to Sintih. They had spent the better part of the past couple of trials in the biological research area of the Institute of Sciences, talking about the possibility of growing...
Xander, I'm flabby. Of all the things for the woman you are to marry to say to you over breakfast, perhaps this was not the most usual, but it was what Celeste Andaris said to him that morning. Plus, I spend most of my trial sitting down and the only exercise I get is you. Her...
The sheets clung to Xander's warm flesh as he lay on his back in the bed. His upper body was open to the air in the room and the late morning light that was cast through the window highlighted his...
/gallery/image.php?mode=thumbnail&album_id=206&image_id=6096 ith the recent influx of problems in Andaris city, the Iron Hand, specifically the Moseke Knights were dispatched to assist the guard and take on some of the more mundane, day-to-day tasks...
They had been making their way to Hunter’s Pass for a few trials now. Violet knew that every inch they grew closer to the Burning Mountains would possibly put Malcolm more on edge and close her window of opportunity. She had watched his...

“What the hell do you mean, no one has seen the king?”
Sabine leaned back in her chair and crossed her arms with an air of skepticism. It had been a slow couple of news days, so she had come to The Blacksmith Arms...
It was a new season and the Baroness Andaris had made some decisions. She and Xander Krome were to be married come Saun and, over the time since they had met Celeste had started to consider that maybe that was not the worst thing....
The afternoon sun was waning, bringing the swiftness of night. The cold was coming, and with it, the sun sunk quicker every day. Eda walked quietly from the schoolhouse at the end of the day, dragging her feet. Where she was going, she...
The clamor of tankards and raucious laughter filled the rank tavern with a background noise that was difficult to ignore. It was easy to get lost in such places, and the naerikk was more than appreciative of that.
Well, the first day was something else so far. She’d pretty much been allowed to do whatever she wanted … it was as if the superiors were struggling to handle the sudden influx of signees. War-time recruitment was high, and time was impossibly thin. Wearing an Andaris...

7th Ashan 717
SHIT!
The shout echoed along the corridors of bookshelves and out into the foyer of the University Library. Scholars paused in their research to gaze back toward the...
The eighteenth break struck, the sun having set, a cool breeze in the air that blew up towards the top tier of Andaris City. Elegant houses and tidy streets wound through the wealthy district, lights...
12th Trial, Ymiden, 717th Arc ~ 9th break. Wind at 4 knots. Wavelets on the sea, otherwise smooth. Storm cleared. Sky clear. Setting out west along the coast to our port side. Tide out. Little danger of being drawn against the cliffs.
Rei had asked Wendell to return some time during the afternoon- earlier than his usual return at dusk when they often spent time talking, sharing affections, and making love before they were too tired to continue. It seemed that seasons...

Kala was not a morning person. True, she had grown accustomed to rising early to prepare the Apothecary office, but her familiarity with the ungodly hours of the morning did little to endear her to them. The Apothecary clinic was...
The City of Drakengard was certainly beautiful, it was a huge leap from what Xander was used too. The brilliant white stone from which most of the city was built was very different from the stone used in Krome or Gawyne. The...

Lowtown was in shambles.
The Qe’dreki uprising and the resulting civil war in Saun had left Lowtown and its people burned, broken, and dead. Countless homes had been destroyed and innumerable...

He was back in Andaris; returned to responsibilities and the knighthood, but his heart wasn’t in it. He missed Rharne and the drinking. He missed the freedom, the priestesses, and the electric buzz that gave life to his...
Dressed nicely, the young woman sat straight-backed on the solar. She’d had a similar conversation with her father the year before. If she’d been thinking about the future, the Skyrider wouldn’t have expected to be a colonel or to have two...
The snow would’ve been cold if Peake’s stomach wasn’t as full of wine as it was. Although these days were not as usual as he would’ve liked, Peake sometimes found a break between his two jobs, and...
