The four Zodiac were gathered in their tent staring at one another. Virgo was sitting on the bed while Cancer and Gemini were pacing back and forth in tandem. Scorpio stood near the entrance her arms folded and face a mask as she looked down.

Across the city Ryza, Orion and Ryze gathered on one of the walls. They had their backs to the rising sun, looking toward the empty expanse of space that would take them to Noria. Orion looked at the pair of necromancers and from the back, arms folded like they were, and saw the resemblance.
The sun was finally starting to rise, a half circle on the horizon. The air was already starting to warm up and the breeze that rolled across his shoulders was cool. The guard rotation was going to be coming through soon. They were used to him being here in the early mornings and usually ignored […]
Rolling aside in bed Vincent’s eyes opened for the fourth time that morning. It was very early, he knew that much just from a hunch. Weird sleep schedules were no stranger to him but even in this moment, he couldn’t get comfortable even with Alison home. A fourth failure told him it was time to […]

Getting a heaping helping for himself his brother took it from him but […]
Blaze stamped the sand as the gate was pulled up. It had been a long time since Blaze had been home and he missed home, Vincent specifically. Alison stroked his neck slowly and he just chuffed in response.

Vayne always found it odd how few people lived to the north. There were those that lived in the cities. Those who lived in the center of the desert and those that lived in the south near the mountains that separated this country and the next. But something about the north and its coldness and […]
Norian soldiers were nothing like their sanctum counterparts when it came to martial prowess. Each soldier fought with a discipline ferocity that was a sight to behold. From their sword swings to shield placement and positioning that only drilling since the day they were born could have instilled into them. There was no camaraderie of […]
