《Gratuitous Item Crafting and Descriptions (and shoddy economics)》Ring of Short-Ranged Teleportation and Colourblindness
Advertisement
Jimmy wanted to make a small item, and thought making a little ring was as good idea as any.
Rummaging in the supply shed, he found some silver and bronze, and arrayed his finer tools. He quickly rustled up a lead mold ring, and heated up the silver and bronze individually. With great care and concentration he poured them together. The colour of the silver and the alloy when combined together was beautiful. Jimmy locked his eyes upon the rapidly combining new alloy, and thought of how different the metals were, and how the bronze went from yellow to more white yellow with the silver added. The rapid difference and reduction in colour.
His mind wandered as he picked up the Silveronze with a small pair of tongs, and dunked it into the cooling vat, then heated it again, and dunked it yet again. For the next half hour he did this, along with careful striking and folding and shaping of the ring. By the end of that time, the Silveronze was something greater, and after being fully cooled, he found that heating it up was unable to soften it without going a lot hotter, so he grunted with interest, cooled it and put it on his finger.
He looked at the trees outside and was a little scared when he could only see them in greyscale. He focused on the ground by them and appeared with a light pop several meters closer.
He wisely took the ring off, and explained what it did to his father.
His father's eyes gleamed with avarice as he calculated a starting sum to request of future potential buyers.
Eventually the Ring was sold to a very wealthy patron enamored by such a curiosity, a duchess in fact, who took such a delight in using the Ring to teleport around instead of walking that her legs weakened, her body fattened, and her husband divorced her. Eventually she tried to use her Ring to do a makeshift flight, but she got distracted one day and died when she miscalculated how low she needed to be to drop and her legs broke.

Lesser Evil
In a perfect world, an alcoholic, hedonistic, mentally abusive individual like Audry Forge would never coincide with his attempts to stop the extinction of life. But there is no perfect world. There is no other person. Only the lesser of evils. Participant of the Royal Road Writathon challenge - 55k words Author's Note: This is story has been the easiest to write in my time of writing. I thoroughly enjoy it! You may not understand the premise in the first few chapters but need not worry buddy, I've been working ahead. Things will start rolling! I hope you enjoy it. Give me feedback and make sure to share it around! Other Info: Normally I wouldn't put any warnings but this story will be going down a pretty dark path (based on irl experiences) fairly early on. There will not be any overtly sexual content this early but some themes are suggestive. There is profanity. There are references to drugs and alcohol. There are dramatic relationships that I'm trying to base off of real life. There is more of a focus on characters. There will be unpleasant scenes in regards to death, while others will be brushed over. There will also be a fair amount of pop culture references too! Give it a try. You might like my form of storytelling!

A cute duckling in an ugly world
A twist on an old story. A cute duckling in an ugly demon world. A cute demon that starts with nothing, fighting trough the world, the insults, laughter of others at her appearance and other demons making fun of her for being cute, for being different. But she doesn't grow into a monstrous swan. No, that's not how her story ends. ------------------------------- I didn't use any movies, books or series for inspiration the story is my original work. This is just the result of my weird imagination and brain telling me what to write. I hope you liked it :) It’s just a story, like all of my other stores. It doesn’t have a deeper spiritual, moral or ethical meaning.
