《Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10》3.6 Reprieve

Now this was something Keya understood! She held with handlebars similar to a scythe on a long iron beam ending in a circular rotating blade. As she waded into the stalks, she clasped a lever spinning the circular saw, reaping them cleanly and effortlessly. It was called a grass cutter, and it cut grass.
Why couldn’t everything with Master Kel be this simple? Her vision guided where she must go, showing the desired trimming area in a blue hue. An oval area of about fifty paces wide was her assignment. That, and to locate large rocks that may impede Master’s 'progress', whatever that may be. It was getting darker, but the enchanted vision was supplementing the light.
Since they first met, Jon had paraded one magic device after the next in front of her. Each preempted with fantastical words and esoteric uses. Almost everything he owned moved of its own Gods’ damned accord. The grasscutter was no exception, but she could forgive it this sin, given its otherwise forthright integrity in name and function. He was like some male youth trying to impress her by showing his collection of toys, except there was no end to them, and each one was indeed more impressive than the next. Ancestors give me wisdom; his mind and motivations are unfathomable.
But cutting grass, this she understood. It was in front of her, she could raze it with impunity, and nothing so simple had ever felt this rewarding. Perhaps that is why he assigned the task to her. Is he truly that wise?
She glanced back to the mighty portal, joining his and her realm. He looked nothing like a sagely master. The inscrutable jester was blithely skipping about laying ramps across the threshold for his begrimed cart. It moved of its own damned accord too, because of course it did.

He trotted the battered beast out and onto the plain. All the while, it grumbled and growled as it trudged on inner wheels with long flat bands about them, laying the road it rolled upon. Quite ingenious. The magical beast did not sound particularly pleased with its lot in life, but heavens was it strong. Wrestling mighty boulders out of its path with the frontal scoop. The stones left deep gouges in the earth as Master casually rode the thing. Levers and pedals in his saddle were manipulated without so much as a glance. The casual confidence of each preemptive motion belied much familiarity with his mount. Keya barely knew how to ride a horse much less that!
She resumed her charge. More stalks deserved her frustrations, and she had plenty to spare.

8 62Edge of the Storm
A thousand years after narrowly escaping extinction, humanity still fights for survival on the fringe of space. On the alien, hostile world of Deana, Taro is tasked with dealing a mortal blow to an enemy that has pursued the last dregs of the human species across light years. From the Wild Summer hyper-carrier, Taro must strike out at an enemy that seems like it would stop at absolutely nothing to ensure humanity's time in the universe draws to an end. The key to it all is Valerie, a human bred super-weapon, and the discovery she makes aboard the enemy craft Delirium. What to expect from Edge of the Storm: You will find here a slow burning story that is punctured by moments of high flying action, intense mecha battles, gory hand-to-hand combat, tough decisions and sacrifices. What you won't find are black and white morals, harems, cute girls, big boobs, or anything else that might bring me troves of readers. You have been warned. Update schedule: Saturdays (and maybe Wednesdays).

8 112The Downward Spiral
Blood? My wrist was covered in it. It wasn't dried up or reeked of the combination of that black gunk from all those other freaks. It was fresh and warm too. Where was it coming from? I checked my body. My t-shirt was splattered in everyone else's blood but my own. Turning over my hand, my eyes lowered to where Ray was holding onto me. I gasped and released him, covering my mouth to stop from screaming. "Holy shit dude! What happened to your-?!" Tears were forming in his eyes but he looked down and hid his hand from me. "Please d-don't worry about it. Let's just go find a real hospital already." He said while shaking. "I...I don't want to think about it right now O-okay? It's no big deal..It's just...it's a finger..." My mind went blank. I pulled him into a tight hug. I wanted to do nothing much but to cry right now. I got him into this mess. This was all my fault. If only we would have just stayed at home that night. I didn't have to go to that stupid concert... After watching fans rip each other apart during one of her concerts, Sasha Brown's main goal was to keep her brother safe from whatever the hell broke loose in Jackson, Tennessee. Expecting the police to take care of it, she soon realize it wasn't blowing over anytime soon, especially with the growing number of rabid monsters running around, the living dead, and crazy psycho cults forming. One night brought an unfamiliar deadly world for both Sasha and her brother Raymond, and both are willing to fight it out to survive it.
