Epilogue
Marith
Marith stood on the bow of the ship as they made their way across the ocean to the Dead Lands. She starred over the blue waters and kept an eye on the water for migrating merrow swarms. They had been on the sea for weeks now, and she had grown used to the rocking of the ship. Carl wretched over the side, he was a dwarf used to the mountains and would never be at home out on the water.
“How are you still able to throw up? You haven’t eaten in days,” Marith said in wonder.
“I have years of ale stored up inside,” Carl explained stone-faced and threw up again.
Herbalt the Sage stepped up to them leaning on his staff and looked over the morning ocean. He stretched and looked at the rising sun. “Beautiful morning isn’t it Carl?” he asked cheerfully.
“Go fuck yourself,” Carl growled and dry-wretched over the side. “I think I’m sicker than I thought,” Carl said lying on the deck.
What do you mean?” Herbalt asked.
“I see thousands of fish circle our ship,” Carl said, “I should probably go sit down I’m getting dizzy.”
Herbalt looked over the side and paled. “Those are vulture fish; they accompany merrow. Grab you ax Carl we’re about the be attacked.”
Marith ran up to the top deck and began ringing the bell. Shouting to the sailors on deck and sounding the alarm. “We’re under attack! Merrow!”
Sailors ran out from below deck yanking up their pants and pulling on shirts. The captain burst out of his cabin rolling out a table covered with cutlasses and harpoons arming the members of his crew. They lined the deck and looked over the side ready to defend the vessel. Merrow burst out of the water hurling harpoons made of whalebone and connected with kelp rope yanking sailors over the sides of the ship into the water where the merrow began disemboweling them, ripping them apart like sharks.

Marith spread out her hands and used Fesla’s power to part the water exposing the merrow to the attacks of the sailors and the ranged members of her party. The merrow began pulling themselves up onto the deck and fighting the sailors on deck balancing on their coiled fishtail like a snake. The sailors rushed the merrow on deck using the advantage of being on the solid ground to their advantage. Marith felt the deck shudder.
“They're attacking our hull!” The captain shouted.
Marith muttered a spell pulled out her war hammer and leaped overboard into the water. She breathed out the spell that allowed her to breathe like a fish. A merrow swam towards her and Marith swung her Warhammer into the merrow’s face knocking it back. She stretched out her hand and fired bolts of hardened water piercing the merrow’s hide and sending it floating belly up. Marith swam forward and began pushing merrow back and defending the wide birth of the hull.
Suddenly there was a flash of brilliant light. The merrow began swimming away as figures made of energy started arcing through their midst. Marith swam to the surface and saw a black circle in the sky that hummed with energy around the edges. A rope dropped down next to Marith, and she grabbed it and was pulled up onto the ship.
“What is that?” Marith asked in awe.
“That is what we are fighting against. A portal into the Astral Sea, the Plane of Energy. Until it closes naturally, it will release lightning elementals into our world,” Herbalt the Sage explained.
“Can’t we do anything?” Marith asked.
Herbalt shook his head sadly. “Until the Asternosis Tome is brought back to the mortal plane we are all in constant danger from the other planes.”

8 2368The Oscillation (No Swearing)
It was an average day in Miami—then fractures in the sky appeared. A pulse from those cracks altered the population; some people's biology changed while others received magical and supernatural powers. After the chaos, the political drama ensued, followed by the discovery of portals that brought deadly creatures. They called this event "The Oscillation" and it changed Rachel's life forever. Note: I've received some feedback that people don't like the foul language. This also included my mother, she wanted me to make a cleaner version for her. So, I thought I might as well release it alongside the more explicit version. I went back and rewrote the parts that have profanity in them. ^_^7 Cover Commissioned From Likesac ^_^7
8 114The Chronicle of a Witch
It is a story about a young girl that abruptly transmigrated into the body of another young girl (at least in appearance) in another world filled with Magic. She notices that she becomes a Dungeon Master and for a thousand years... she lives a lazy life. However, one day, she lost all of her power and she is kicked out of her Dungeon! And the world's changed that video games level and classes governed the power system of the new world! What will she do as a weak and fragile girl? Will she get her power back? How will she survive in the harsh world? Author's note: I will update daily if possible and each chapter is around 2,000 words. Gores, Sexual Contents, and Traumatising Contents are limited and I try my best not to write them. However, for the progress of the story, I can't help but write some of them in the latter part of the story. However, don't expect them too much ^_^ English is not my native language, so there might be grammatical errors (maybe a lot), but I'll try to fix them, so constructive critiques will be appreciated (^_^)
