《Mystic Nan》Title image
Advertisement
Sorry, no chapter here, RRL and I don't quite agree on image sizing and my new title is cut off normally, so I thought I'd just post it here in case anyone wanted to see it in full. I used some kind of vector image creator for it, Vectr, I believe it was called (https://vectr.com/tmp/bMP2pq9Nr/b1K4WICkw?modal=welcome).
The idea was to have each volume display a character’s sigil at the beginning, and this one's supposed to be Nan's (natch). Not the prettiest rendition, I know, but I'm an author, not a artist.
A few mishaps have also been called to my attention, some trimming issues and an instance of a switched name, I'll remedy them. Eventually.
In the meantime, if you want more said tags or some other quality of life mechanic altered, feel free to comment, I read all of them. I'm not guaranteed to change my style, but I'll put everything said into consideration.

By Word and Deed
It is a time of shifting powers in the Phoenoan empire. The borders have been set for decades but the citizens are restless. In the great city of Maerin, tensions writhe just beneath the surface. So far from the empire's seat, the nobility is left to plot unchecked. Into this perilous world of the nobility are thrust two young scions of previously unimportant houses. The impetuous Jormand who avidly avoids his duties, preferring to spend his time brawling and the calculating Galier whose political acumen is being tested to its fullest in this new environment. The threads of intrigue are woven thickly around them and strained near to breaking yet it remains to be seen just which ones will hold.
8 263Wailing and Gnashing
Some are born to save life. Some damned to endure it. To those who dwell in the dark, gnashing their dagger teeth with hunger, life is for feeding on, and they've just discovered an endless feast. "There are those whose teeth are swords,whose fangs are knives,to devour the poor from off the earth,the needy from among mankind."-Proverbs 30:14
8 69Ambition [Indefinite Hiatus]
Hunger, poverty, and suffering rampages throughout the world of Terra, as its seven great nations remain locked in a draining stalemate. In the midst of all this, Eremus and Ducis, two insignificant boys born with nothing, to nothing, develop a grand ambition to conquer the world and rid it of the concept of war forever. Eremus is proud of his cunning, and is confident that it will serve him well in achieving his shared ambition with Ducis. However, now he must match wits with the greatest minds of the land, and he may find that he has bitten off far more than he can chew... Note: This is a story I wrote when I was in high school, and have only recently moved it here to Royal Road. It was my first stab at writing an original fiction of my own, and though I had many things planned for it, I don't think I'll be continuing this now or in the forseeable future.
8 197Res Publica: Republic Among Monarchs
Leonhard has always questioned the idea of rulership. In this world of endless war and strife, he often pondered the validation of Monarchy and Republic. For the past decade, he had invested his life into studying it. Still, as the son of Patrician Pabio Zieten, head of one of the most prominent houses in the Republic of Iodeal, he found himself obstructed by the duties he must perform. These duties range from venturing into the post-succession war island kingdom, dealing with rivaling houses and even leading troops into the field of battle. It would seem as if he would never get the time needed to discover the way of rulership. But perhaps being involved in such politics would enable him to discover something much more important than he had originally hoped...
8 101Midnight Origins: Arrival
On a lush planet known as Bhar, Verun is now the leading nation in the development of the rivaled schools of Magic and Science. Having brought forth an era of peace and prosperity for themselves through the development of Magitech, The High council was eager to spread their knowledge and beliefs to the furthest reaches of the continent, with the goal of ending senseless conflicts and prioritizing advancements in Magitech and improving the quality of life. This ambition, however, is not without opposition. Most followers side with one school or another, believing it is superior in nature. This conflict dates back to the very beginning of civilization itself, where it is believed by both sides that their gods descended from the heavens, bestowing upon them the knowledge that would bring the world into a new age. And though some took great interest in their differences, others would seek to convert each other through any means necessary. That being the case, The High council, leaders of Verun, had made the necessary preparations to handle threats and attempt diplomacy between the remaining opposers. Talented volunteers were hand chosen to be among the military, tasked with protecting the nation from both internal and external threats. And although non-biological creations have improved quality of life, they are not yet capable of replacing the military. The necessary research and development for such a thing was thought to be decades away, until Councilman Eranor encountered an anomaly in his facility…
