2/13/1493B
Sand. Nothing but sand, and the occasional tumbleweed. I’ve been wandering for 4 days now, and I'm starting to run low on food. Maybe it wasn't the best idea to go by foot. Whatever, if i'm right there should be a tavern coming up soon. I have been practicing my magic, to impress the guilds, maybe I might get into the legendary three… Wishful thinking but you can dream haha. Maybe I'll get real practice soon. I hadn't seen a monster since the tiny sand salamander 4 days ago, but I don't know if I'd really call that practice. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
???: Man this is sad, this diary has been the only thing keeping me sane in the intense heat of this place. I really hope this guild thing works out so I don't have to go home.
The campfire crackles into the night as this hooded traveler drifts into a night of rest. As morning comes, the ear piercing screeching of the morning newts rings through the desert, and awakens our young traveler.
???: God those things are annoying
As they look over they see a morning newt within arms reach staring back at them.
???: Sigh
The rekindled fires curl over the freshly caught newt. As a few minutes pass, they grab the skewer and take a small bite out of the newt, a brief face of disgust washes over them, but ultimately finish their meal.
???: It wasn't the best, but i killed it, so i had to eat it, wasting a life doesn't sit well with me
Their stomach grumbles.
???: But i fear it still wont sit well with me...
After a brief… break, they continue traversing this desolate wasteland of a desert. After several miles of only sand, they appear to see a building.
???: God I hope that's the tavern, and not a mirage.

They walk to the entrance of the building, the doors, a set of Batwing saloon doors. As they enter the building, shifting gazes across the tavern find there way to them, freezing them in place for a moment before continuing. They find a seat at the bar.
Tavern Keep: What can I getcha lad
The hooded figure pull down there hood, revealing her long blonde hair
Tavern Keep: Oh im sorry, lass.
???: It's fine haha, can i get a-
Her statement cut short by an eruption of commotion as the doors were kicked in by a girl with long red hair carrying a large piece of tech with a long barrel, resembling that of a minigun
??? 2: PUT YOUR HANDS UP, AND SURRENDER!

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.

White Mage in Another World [Pre-Redux]
[This is the old version of the story before my drastic rewrite. it still has mostly the same plot and some of the characters are the same, but almost everything else is different. If you are really curious you can read this version but its barely worth reading in my opinion.] A young woman named Andromeda is taken from her world to another filled with fantasy and magic. She finds that she can use "Medical" type magic and becomes a white mage.
