《The not-immortal Blacksmith》77 The Not-Immortal blacksmith – A Farmer makes a Barn

My Dell, the real Western Wilds.
25th of Kielat, first month of summer,
2138 years since the new gods came.
The long, low shop building is done. Around 100' long, 20' wide, and 12' tall. The front wall can be opened fully in several places. I should have learned carpentry. My woodworking skills are all tangential to the rest of my training. Grrr.
The next week will be spent making a proper barn, as opposed to the pair of sheds I currently have. The stupid turkeys are trying to roost on the house. I need to make a coop for them as well. ...they remind me of Tranquility.
*-*-*
On the celestial plane, the goddess of Tranquility sneezed, then continued talking to the news stand man.
*-*-*
29th of Kielat,
The foundation is done. The goats keep leading the sheep out of the corral. I am going to butcher the lot of them.
30th of Kielat,
I am going to need more wood. It also looks like I'm going to need to head back to town for more supplies. Magic combat sickle does not work well for actual harvesting. Wrong curve on the blade.
34th of Kielat,
Ingots of iron are expensive out here. I will need to locate a vein. Or search through the crate. I suppose I need to empty it anyway.
36th of Kielat,
Where did this candelabra come from?
*-*-*
“Where the hell did I get you?” Max asked the golden, jewel encrusted candelabra, covered with strange glyphs. It didn't answer. Meh. Stupid thing, I'll think about it later.
*-*-*
37th of Kielat,
The idiots temple in Sleetpoint! That's where I stole it!
38th of Kielat,
I'm a lumberjack. It's an okay profession. I work all day cutting down trees, and sleep like a log all night.

Brandy and Dog are having a fun time with the sheep and goats.
41st of Kielat,
Barn raising by yourself is such a pain. I'm having to use spells to keep pieces in place.
42nd of Kielat,
It fell down. Not all of it, but most of it. Stupid lack of carpentry skills. I wonder if Bjorn knows how to build a barn from scratch?
45th of Kielat,
Bjorn stopped by today on his way west. Apparently there is another continent! Full of other peoples! Minotaurs, lizard folk, and other such fantastical people! Maybe someday I will go there.
He laughed about the barn. Asshole. Said that maybe he would send help later if I didn't figure it out. I suppose I could just grow one?
48th of Kielat,
The barn has been grown. Idiot of the elves didn't even show up. That is weird. He always has in the past. I'm still making one the proper way. It is just farther down the list now.

Dana and The Legend of Apollo and Daphne
She is the reincarnation of a Greek god's former lover. Did anyone bother to tell her? No... at least not until the god shows up at her door.I couldn't explain his features any way besides perfect. He was probably the most handsome man I had ever met. Something about him was familiar, as though I had known him for years.One hand still grasping mine, he moved his other into my hair, stroking softly. His warmth surrounding, his touch calmed me.I couldn't move. I could barely breathe. My mind was blank. It was like nothing I ever felt before. I was lost in his eyes, in his warmth, in the feeling that I was safe. At that moment I wished to stay forever. I also knew better than to remain here. However, my muscles went numb under the warmth of his hands. I couldn't move.I layed there him stroking my hair in shock for what in my head felt like forever. Eventually, he leaned down and spoke into my ear making my whole body shiver."My dear, I have waited for this moment for years," his voice was beautiful, strong and warm. Like the wind on a summer day. He had humor in his eyes and I found it extremely unsettling.There was something off about his tone. Almost like I was dreaming, but I knew it wasn't one. Something powerful and dangerous was in his voice... Ohhh no! This wasn't some random mortal standing over me. This.... this... this was a god...Credit to Rick Riordan for building such a wonderful world to put stories into and creating some of these amazing characters.

Dreamland
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies. If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game! Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen? Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her. As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions. It is a slow-developing story. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it with you, dear reader if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling. This is not a classical isekai story. There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story. This is not an MMORP game story. Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world. Updates on a weekly basis, at least Monday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow. Cover art: White Flower as A Dark Fairy by Darkrealmsmaiden Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover. There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site: https://www.deviantart.com/darkrealmsmaiden Additional Grammar Trigger Warning: As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :( Well, you have been warned :) I appreciate it when a reader points out a sentence that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems are. * We thought we made the best game in Earth's history We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen We thought we made it - lifelike But it far exceeded our expectations. Dolores, I hope you're happy now. I hope you're alive now...
