Chapter 23
Chapter 23: The Magi Crystals 1
Near the port of Lamer city .
Luke, Philip, and princess Reina were standing on the roadside .
“Did your problem with your debt go well?”
“Yes, yesterday I stopped by the bank under the Empire with the presence of Bishop Pascal and made things clear . Young lord, you should have seen the expression on the face of the Count…”
At the question from Luke, Pavel answered with a huge grin, rethinking the pleasant experience .
Reina smiled brightly and thanked him again .
“It was all thanks to you . ”
“Hahaha, not at all . ”
Luke was holding his hands while letting out a small laugh .
“I will make sure to repay this grace . So please wait till then . ”
“Okay . ”
Honestly, Luke wanted to say no, but he didn’t want to hurt her pride so Luke nodded .
Two?!
As the departure time approached, the horn began to sound .
“This is a little sad . ”
“The end of a meeting is always parting ways, and after parting ways, there will always be another meeting . ”
When Luke quoted a poem from long ago, Reina smiled .
“It’s ‘Journey of the Wind’ made by the poet Lund . I know that it was a very old song…”
“A good song said that light will never fade even through the ravages of time . ”
And that too was said by Lund .
Saymon heard that directly from Lund .
“You know of all the classics… You seem to be much older than you look, Young Lord . ”
“You think so?”
“Yeah, I was very surprised to know that you were only 17!”
‘Are my words and actions having some kind of an oldie vibe?’
Knowing the age of him, he thought that everyone would overlook his actions .

Then why was Philip or the other servants of Rakan not feeling strange about it?
The questions he had were soon answered by what Philip said,
“Hah, our Young Lord has always been like that since he was a child . He matured fast as both his parents passed away early . And recently after waking up from a dangerous accident, he got much older . ”
“Oh my, I’m so sorry!”
Reina quickly apologized for the wounds that Luke was hiding .
However, that didn’t matter to Luke as he had the soul of Saymon .
“It is alright . We’ll have to part ways now . ”
Luke politely said goodbye to Reina .
Though he wanted to spend more time with her, he had an important mission of protecting something that was very precious to him .
The iron mages, who were next to her, with dreadful expressions had other things to do .
“Please be safe . ”
“Please be safe as well, princess . ”
After saying goodbye to Reina, Luke took the three iron mages into the porting dock .
With a heart filled with regret and expectations of reunion .

8 89Moonblood
Five moons rise over Evanir, each in her own cycle, and each moon is also a god, one of five sisters. Many gods create spirit attendants and companions, brought forth fully-formed. Long ago, the moons worked together to create a lineage that are, instead, humans transformed by the mingling of blood. They intended them to be long-lived and to draw their strength directly from the light of the moon who chose each individual. The five sisters had different goals in mind – one wanted it to be a blessing for scholars and artists, to give them more time and fewer physical distractions; another wanted them to have an animal form, different for each, to keep them more in tune with nature so they could serve as guardians of the wilderness. There are drawbacks to their children having human lives and personalities before being chosen: not all share the goals of their divine mothers, and some choose to put their gifts to darker uses. Those carrying the blood of one woman, fleeing the corruption in search of a quiet life, take a different path. -=-=-=-=- Moonblood isn't so much a novel as a series of adventures of varying length. They involve a core group of people, which does grow over time. They take place in a fairly low-magic world, but despite that, our core cast are directly connected to the moons and have various abilities, including limited shapeshifting to a single individual animal form. As with all my work, unless gender, orientation, or other aspects of sexuality are explicitly stated, I suggest not making assumptions. Probably most significant, I think, is a major trans character who appears about 80K words in - no spoilers, just a note for those who care about that one way or the other.
8 133The Electric Archipelago (WIP)
This is the first draft of my new cyberpunk novel, The Electric Archipelago. In the future humanity is imprisoned by massive corporations. Computers are directly connected to their brains, creating a nightmarish state of absolute control, every action is monitored and harshly judged. Perhaps worst of all, the victim's perception of reality itself is controlled. A system of social credit hangs over everyone's heads. If you want to survive you will need to pick a company and stay loyal to that brand. But it goes beyond that, because each corporation has been infiltrated and taken over by forces that are interested in more than just profit. John is a Skinwalker, a free man, a man who is immune to these restrictions. He goes where he wants and does what he wants, moving from one augmented reality to the next, always looking for the next score.
