Ash finally lowered his hands, though his body language was still as tense as he felt. It followed him all the way to the wagon, which felt a little cramped. Maybe it was because it wasn't made for someone his height, or maybe it was simply Tick's presence that seemed to fill the interior. It...

It was the shopkeeper that reacted before Ash could, a brief look of fear crossing his face as Remy listed off his masteries. "Y-you wish to be a necro-" "...sir, he'll be fine. I don't think he means any harm to you." Still, the shopkeeper ended up disappearing into the back of his shop...

'These two have a problem.' That was the only thing going through Ash's mind as the two continued to talk, apparently more focused on whatever world their heads were in. He still couldn't decide if they were dangerous or just confused. One thing was for sure, though - this was all deeply weird...

AP: 2/6 (2 AP spent) Location: Camp Hope | D.E.S. Astorea Branch Prompt: To Save a "Princess" Narrator Tag: @Pandora Ash crossed his arms. The gold didn't make him think of Dissonance, but Tertoria was apparently far more experienced with that sort of thing. Still... "Well, when all you have...

Ash stayed wary as Tick and Tock exited the wagon, but they didn't seem dangerous. They were introducing themselves, and they looked and sounded vaguely familiar, but he couldn't pin down why. Still, there was something charming about their twin antics, so began his usual song and dance when...

Ash wished he could enjoy the pleasant weather. In reality it had been cold and wet for days now, and the warmth of the sun should have been a relief. The path was calm, and the road was easy. But he was alone, unable to find a caravan to travel with this close to Vintergard. And he still...

"Honestly, right now you're more likely to run into guards than wolves. It wouldn't have ended well." Ash kept his guard up, watching for anyone that might have bad intentions. "Players aren't exactly liked in this region, lately. Long story." It was only when they reached the shop that Ash...

AP:: 4/6 (2 AP Spent) Location: Camp Hope Prompt: To Save a "Princess" Narrator Tag: @Pandora* Ash nodded as the young woman spoke. Everything she said matched up with what he knew, and more importantly what he believed. "...that's good. A lot of people don't even know what Titanius was...

Ash nodded, keeping his voice a little quiet. "Person walking out of the forest in starter gear and staring at everything like a tourist? Big tell." He held a hand out towards Remy for a handshake. "Ash Vargold. I'm a player like you." His expression was generally friendly, but he was obviously...

fa-solid fa-quotesThis Blog is Not a Metaphor I just think gamers don't know what's going on Comments The area ruled by Falderen has become neutral-to-hostile to players. The use of Magitech has been outlawed within their territory, and Magia are purportedly being taken into holding...

How long had it been since Ash had been in Eastern Brisshal? Not long enough avoid falling into his old habit of watching for shooting stars. Falderen's new stance on players meant that they needed the help ASAP - especially those unfortunate few that decided to play magia. (He should probably...

AP: 0/3 (3 AP spent) Location: Campe Hope Prompt: Stars of the Land + New Arrival Narrator Tag: @Pandora* 'Dissonance Extermination Squad'. It was amazing how little that told Ash about the group establishing itself within the borders of Camp Hope. It was a goal he agreed with, sure, and he...

AP: 0/3 (1 AP spent) Location: Camp Hope Prompt: Camp EX+ Champion Edition Redux Narrator Tag: N/A This time there were no killer robots stalking Vintergard when Ash logged in. The battlefield was stripped bare - no eggs, no Sirens, no Szofrit. Even the ghosts had settled down, leaving only...

"You know, I think I liked you better when you were still playing that game" Aisling paused, cigarette halfway to her lips. She turned an unimpressed glare towards Jake, who was leaning on the railing of the porch and staring at his phone. He didn't even bother to look up at her, tapping...

It'd been exactly one week. Aisling knew that counting the days wouldn't help. That the best way to deal with her problem was to find other things to think about. Out of sight, out of mind, or so she told herself as she walked into her makeshift office. She'd put the headset in the closet, but...

The line was moving, and Aisling was getting close enough to the entrance that she was planning her escape. Sure, Jake would be upset, but he knew the risk he was taking. She peered down at her phone and began to compose an apologetic message. "OI, ASH! I see you getting ready to bolt!"...

Ash squinted at the slice of cake, ears pinned back. He didn't move to take it immediately, instead letting his attention slide towards Luthien. Then he turned bleary eyes towards Rael and coughed in a way that felt more like it came from awkwardness than sickness. "...Rael, have you ever taken...

Ash winced at Madison's sudden outburst. He hadn't realized he'd touched a nerve until it was too late. "Okay, sorry..." The brown vulture fell with a pain-filled screech. It writhed in a way that seemed far worse than the "Oh, this... this is pain. How long has it been..." The blood that...
