The not-immortal Blacksmith - Interlude - Queen Yuri (F you brother dear! (He made me write this one.))
--Excerpts from Queen Yuri's diary pertaining to "the Blacksmith"--
My husband has abdicated the thrown to our son! Happy retirement! My son is now king! No worries now about the succession.
*-*-*
I saw the Heathen blacksmith in town today. How is he still alive? I was sure the goddess would have killed him by now.
*-*-*
I saw him again today. I directed the spymaster to have someone find him. The blasted man disappeared. No one can seem to find him.
*-*-*
At tonight's midsummer ball I saw the most exquisite gown! Lady Chastity's husband looked truly gorgeous as well. Apparently the newly promoted head tailor at the Gwenneth Mercantile house is a marvel, perfect to work with and not free with his hands at all! I assumed he just doesn't like women, but Lord Chastity claimed he was the same way with him. Very interesting. Maybe he is what we used to call an 'Ace' back on earth?
*-*-*
It's him! The heretic blacksmith is a tailor now!! I cannot believe it! My fitting is in 2 days. Who in this world can do a gown in 2 days?!?
*-*-*
My fitting was today. It was perfect. I truly cannot believe what this man can do. The Goddess really did bless him. Why does he refuse to help her?
I spoke to him at length about it today. He did not take it well. He called the Goddess and I "Idiots"! Then when the Goddess showed her displeasure over that, he yelled at her out the window! The nerve of the man! I will send the guard to fetch him in a few days. He can answer to my son for his unkind words.

He is gone. He apparently resigned the day after my fitting. On the other hand, he did leave several dozen new and easily altered patters for the Gwenneth Mercantile house as a parting gift. They will be making money hand over fist for decades on those patterns alone. He also left a bevy of excellently trained apprentices in his wake.
I am somewhat saddened that I will never see that heretic again.

The Dream Saga

8 508Echoes of Valhalla
(Currently Updates at about 3 chapters a week, generally on Tues, Wend, Thur if I can swing it. 2k average words per chapter) As a cashier at Trollhålans combined corner store and gas station, Saga is stuck out in nowhere, Sweden. Having recently lost their mother, they are at their wit's end as they are pushing close to 30 with a dead-end job and only a few friends that they hold semi-reasonable contact with. Most of them have families, jobs, and lives that they do not. In what is a stroke of extraordinarily bad luck, they come face to face with a being not from their world. A creature not supposed to be there. A being that kills them over a bag of sliced bread. Only for Saga to reincarnate in another world. Armed with nothing but a poor temperament and a strange magical guide, they find themselves in a strange, yet oddly familiar new world, surrounded by runic magic, undead, magical beasts, half-giants, and more. Now Saga must find a way to make a new life for themselves while also figuring out how to not end up dead, again. Journey alongside Saga as they find themselves and grow, both as a warrior and as a person. Note: The author has English as their second language and has ADD. Grammatical errors are continuously fixed throughout as they are noticed or pointed out.

8 63Rise of the Godslayer
When Kan lost all his power to an accident four years ago, he thought the world of divine cultivation had closed its gate on him forever. Until a mysterious visitor offers him a cure and a chance to start over. As Kan resumes his training, he discovers that the visitor’s gift isn’t a simple gesture of kindness. Dark forces are at play and monsters lurk in the shadows, threatening not only his life but also the future of the entire Continent. Meanwhile, his power has become stronger than he could ever imagine, and there seems to be more to the accident that once took everything away from him. The truth behind these puzzles and the answer to who he truly is will bring a revelation that changes the course of mankind. --------------- Note: this is a crossbreed of cultivation and high fantasy. The world is heavily Asian-inspired (though not Chinese or Taoist), the characters level up through stage progression and secret weapon unlocking, and the main conflict centers around politics and gods/demons.
