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....

The small port village in Winter’s Reach was a quiet and peaceful place. Laden with soft snows, the drifts flowed and flurried with every little updraft of wind from the sea. The beaches were laden with light ice floes, lighter than usual give the ever oppressive suns of Saun, chasing what it could...
Luvi slept on a bedroll underneath the stary sky. Unbeknownst to her, a beast was lurking in the darkness. It crept over slowly, its four legs barely making a sound as it moved along the edge of the camp. It sniffed the air, detecting delicious food nearby but that could wait. There were more...
Luvi stood by the road, shooting arrows absent mindedly off to the side to kill some time. She and the soldiers she was travelling with stood at a fairly large rock that served as a landmark for passersby. She wasn’t privy to exactly who they were waiting on, but she was used to not knowing very...
When Luvi used her kunai in a sparring session with another swordsman, she realized that she had been letting her competence with shorter blades go out of practice quite a bit. It wasn't to her taste because shorter blades meant she had to take more risk. After spending a half hour to restore...
Luvi’s desire to travel more often had resulted in her being assigned to a small group of soldiers who patrolled the various routes within the empire. It was a simple job most of the time, but from time to time they did run into trouble. There were always travelers in need of...
Luvi and Lumina sat on top of the same Ragdila. It was their turn to rest while others walked – they didn’t have enough mounts for everyone. Luvi had been unimpressed with the creature up until recently. It was just a big turtle, and turtles didn’t move very quickly. She much preferred her horse,...
The morning was hot even before the sun rose. Luvi dunked her head into a bucket of water – not the cleanest water, but one had to make do in the desert. “Fuck it’s hot,” she cursed as she lifted her head and let the liquid travel down her clothed body. It’d been a while since she’d had a proper...
Luvi sat on her horse while riding off to the south in a group of soldiers. Their job was simply to patrol all towards the south, towards the edge of the empire’s border with Yaralon. It sounded exciting at first, but most of their time was filled with monotony. There were only so many bandits...
She’d traveled in the guise that she’d inhabited since leaving Scalvoris. With anima’s female human form and blending from Woe to make her distinct enough from Anima herself, she’d not yet stepped outside of this body with her newfound magic. In truth, she dreaded the painful transformation, and...
Luvi sat at a table with the stone that she’d been working for quite some time on yet never seemed to make much progress on. She’d been trying to make something halfway decent with sculpting for the better part of a season but was still terrible. She’d started to blame her mutated...
It was late in the afternoon when Luvi finally got a chance to do a bit of training. Technically most of her day had been training, but it wasn’t the sort that brought her joy. Rucking several miles in the morning followed by formation drills and then cleaning wasn’t exactly her...
Luvi heard a rustling to her side from beside the tent she knelt next to. Before she could react, someone jumped out and tackled her to the ground from behind. She fell prone and her first instinct was to stab her sword over her shoulder. It was easier said...
Luvi was new to the area but she had learned a little bit about who the military typically fought against. There was no open war, but there were always bandits to deal with and hostile tribes that roamed nomadically throughout some of the regions. Nobody had told her this...
Life as a private wasn’t the least bit glamorous. It was a lot of grunt work, physical labor, and getting yelled at. Still, it wasn’t completely devoid of fun. There were sparring sessions which Illuvia excelled at for her rank and people were often sent off to accomplish some...
“Mmrmr…” The otter rumbled in satisfaction as he looked out over the rocky expanse of the Volcanic Region. “I love the smell of brimstone in the morning.”
A thin stick protruded from between his teeth, as he chewed vigorously on the flavorful end of the stem. He’d gotten quite accustomed to it, to...
How to make swords not hurt so much
in limited space
Lorogh had leave from the Imperial Army to pursue educational opportunities. And while he would've loved to jump back on the wagon of devising new and exciting weaponry for the grand army of the Empire, he was afraid of becoming too stagnant...
He'd not intended to be idle while those responsible for the attack on Egilrun had gone unpunished, as far as could be told. Few punishments were sufficient when it came to the crime committed.
Woe knew that Webspinners had been involved, and so sought out the...
The day had been long. Luvi and her fellow soldiers had walked slowly across the desert terrain on their way back to the city. They were days and days away still and grew tired of their issued rations. They’d tried hunting, but there wasn’t much to eat in the desert. Luvi had learned an important...
The command boomed from up ahead. Luvi and the other soldiers making their way back towards Korlasir were positioned behind a series of boulders that provided good cover. Anyone who had any experience with a bow had been told to fire at nomads that were travelling by. Luvi's...
Lucky for Luvi, she did end up getting a good night’s sleep after all the meditation from last night. The group of soldiers had until late morning until it was time to leave to go help defend the supply route. Even better was that they walked at a slow pace – slow enough for some...
The best way for Luvi had to deal with a long, stressful day was to meditate. The moment she had finished packing her things she’d sat on her bunk and closed her eyes. It didn’t take long for the life of a private fell away from her thoughts and was replaced by inner...
As the sun dipped lower in the sky, the oppressive heat of the desert began to wane, bringing a welcome coolness to the late afternoon. Goku, now in just his undershirt and shorts to combat the lingering warmth, decided it was the perfect time to join in on the sparring sessions organized by Luvi's...
