Chapter 8
Forest Diary
It’s the second day of my daily life in the forest . Before retiring for the day, I want to be a bit more familiar with the Grandy and Blue Grizzlies’ ecology . I’m relying on the moonlight to see; it’s a bit dark but I can still make out what I’m writing . I wonder if it’s become a habit this past month, but I feel uneasy if I’m not keeping my thoughts in a diary .
Day 2 With the black rabbit leading the way, I quickly arrived at the monsters’ dwelling .
Inside were two Blue Grizzlies along with one Grand Grizzly . Of the two, one appears to be a cub with its small stature . The other one has a large build so it’s probably the parent . Although it was written in the book that Grand Grizzlies like to move in groups… Could these two types of bears be part of the same monster group?
Seeing as there hasn’t been much development in this past hour, I should wrap things up for today . As usual, the rabbit is riding on my shoulder . . but since you’re cute, I’ll permit it .
Day 3 I’m observing their habitat again . Just like yesterday, they aren’t moving . Nothing noteworthy happened, guess that’s it for today . I wonder what this rabbit actually is and why it keeps following me… It understands my words and is able to sense danger, which is very convenient . I have an endless amount of doubts about it . But it’s cute so whatever .
Day 4 My stomach hurts .
Day 5 As expected, the water was no good . It was very reassuring to have the rabbit at my side while I was suffering from stomach aches .
By the afternoon, my condition improved and I continued observing the bears .
Looking down at them from a tree, the bears seem to be on a hunt today . Even though I haven’t seen them for only a day, it feels like it’s been a long time . As for the hunt, it felt like the Grand Grizzly was leading the Blue Grizzly cub . Somehow, the sight of it was calming .

From watching them today, I learned that they basically eat anything . They also brought down a Fall Boar, a wild boar monster, with ease .
Am I really capable of taking them down?
Day 6 I encountered a monster today . The black rabbit led me to a place with clean water and just when we were heading back… the rabbit started trembling . What appeared was something akin to a tsuchinoko; a gigantic snake . I don’t know the name of this creature so for now I’ll call it a giga tsuchinoko, or rather I’ll just shorten it to Giganoko . Its abdomen was thick and its body was around 7 metres long . Slithering on its belly, it came directly for me while I froze in fear . Of course, I ran . It chased after me persistently but I managed to get away . Just as a precaution, I also took a detour on the way back .
Somehow, that snake gave me a strange feeling . Unlike the other monsters of this forest, it felt ominous . In addition, the black rabbit appeared to be frightened, even though it remained composed in the Grand Grizzly’s presence…
Despite not fully understanding the monsters in this forest, it seems that something dreadful was occurring here .
Day 7 Nothing abnormal happened with the bears today . This is bad, it’s already been one week, I’m starting to forget why I’m here .
Day 8 I encountered the Giganoko again . It was lurking in a place not far off from my base . When I first encountered it, it was deeper in the forest, or at least that was supposed to be the case . . did it follow me back to my base? If so, then it’s targeting me . I’ll pass on getting eaten . It would be good if I brought down the Grand Grizzly soon .
I have a bad feeling about this .

Day 9 In the morning, the rabbit seemed scared so I decided against setting out and took a longer rest on the tree . I considered fetching my water canteen from the ground but it was risky, and there’s no substitute for my life .
Nevertheless, isn’t this rabbit too emotionally attached to me? Even if I healed its wound, would one normally be this attached? To be honest, I want to take it home .
Tomorrow, once the Giganoko goes away, I’ll start hunting the bears .
Day 10 In the end, I wasn’t able to hunt the Grand Grizzly . It’s not that my desperate attempts at a strategy failed… I didn’t even have to chance to use any .
Right in front of me was the cruel sight of a Grand Grizzly’s messy, half-eaten corpse .

Necromancer and Co.
In a time before the existence of the present, the gods decided to create a plane of existence where all their creations could exist in the same place. In it, all would be fair, and all gaps between races and technological advancements could be crossed with a single system that the gods had created. Every year, the gods would choose a new race to put in their land, and in this new group of beautifully unlucky people, Alen, his friends, and a few people from Earth have finally met their turn to be tossed into the playground of the gods. Unfortunately though, Alen was thrust into a forest of corpse-eating bears and horribly smelly undead on his first day, one of the many danger-zones of the continent the gods had chosen to throw them in. It would be easy to say that he simply died within the first day, or that he'd starved to death or whatever, but let's be honest... That story would be no fun to tell, yes? (Re-write of my first fiction with the same name.)

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
