《In-game Item Storekeeper》Chapter 90 - Return of the Wretched Queen (Diablo III)
Advertisement
The same item which Shang created to house the spirit of Haedrig’s grandfather is what Shang had in mind.
Asylla is glad that someone would save her subjects and she goes out through her cell door.
Before he can buy from the system store, something pops up in his mind.
A thought tells Shang to consider what would happen if he replaced The Nephalem by saving the spirits of Queen Asylla and her loyal servants.
The Warden would fly into a rage and killed the guards for their failure. The next thing he would do is to report to his master, the Skeleton King which he would find out that he was taken down, so the only person who he would turn to and swear his loyalty would be the Maghda.
Maghda is a ruthless leader of the Coven and a witch who pledged her services to Belial. With her help, the obstacle that the Nephalem would face is not only the Butcher which was resurrected by the Coven, they would also have to face the Warden.
Shang’s thoughts: No…
The chances of the Warden working with the Butcher is low. Even if Maghda is in control of it, the Butcher would simply do what it likes and the Warden might be killed in the process.
Shang’s thoughts: The spirits…
These spirits are perfect tracking tools for Maghda, especially if one of the spirits is Leah’s grandmother, Queen Asylla.
Maghda would use her magic to track down Asylla and Leah will be in plain sight.
Asylla: What are you thinking?
Shang: !!!
Shang nearly had an heart attack from Asylla’s actions.
Asylla is already outside her cell and she notices that Shang has not moved from his position, so she passes through the wall, scaring Shang from his thoughts.
Shang: For god’s sake, Your Majesty, Don’t ever do that.

Asylla: Sorry, I thought you are used to seeing ghosts as an adventurer.
Shang: Not really. I rarely deal with the spirits that like to scare people.
Shang’s thoughts: Probably because I am in a group who can deal with spirits. That makes me thought spirits are nothing.
Shang: Before we proceed, we might have a problem.
Asylla: What is it?
Shang: I am afraid you might have to leave your subjects behind.
Asylla: Leave them behind? Why is that so?
Shang: Just to let you know, the Halls of Agony are already taken over by the Coven and King Leoric has been taken down by the Nephalem. We might have a problem if the Warden shares his knowledge of the spirits which he had imprisoned to the Coven.
Asylla: I don’t see that would be a problem.
Shang: It would not be a problem if one of them is not you.
Asylla: Me?
Shang: The Coven also deals in necromancy which could be used to track you down.
Asylla:...and Leah will be in danger.
Shang: You catch on quickly. I am surprised.
Asylla floats away from Shang for a distance before returning.
Asylla: As a queen, I cannot leave my subjects. I am sorry you have to leave without me.
Shang: But Leah is need of your assistance.
Asylla: I…
????: Your Majesty, if it's about your subjects, I could stand in for you.
A female spirit in white appears before Asylla.
Asylla: It’s you…
Shang’s thoughts: This spirit looks awfully familiar... Isn’t that the Wretched Queen !?

Shade and Flow
In the Wastelands, if you were cursed by Shade, you were destined to be shunned, driven away, even killed on sight; you were a creature of darkness, of shadow, cold-blooded and unwanted. But, if you were blessed by Flow, you were the best humankind could offer, a role-model for any sapients. Loke and Nova were born by the same parents, yet even though they embodied the two faces of the medal, they lived in the same dreadful circumstances, but what would happen if one day the greatest beings of the world decided that the siblings would become their Champions? A Warning: There is an Anti-hero lead for a reason, and there should also be a Y.A. tag, but RR doesn't have it; therefore here it is. So, there's going to be blood, there might be carnage, but there will also be wholesomeness, romance, and affection. But most importantly, there will be Action. About the LitRPG: This novel is a slow-burn, with a lot of character development, yet the LitRPG element starts in Chapter 3 and becomes more prominent as the protagonist evolves his Skill. Further elements appear in Chapter 38. I'm not a native speaker: If you see any typos, please point them out, and I shall fix them as soon as possible. Thank you! Release Days: Twice a weak Release Time: ~ 09:00 PM UTC Words per chapter: ~3000

8 142Through Mist, Veil, and Summer
Anna Lawrence is a quiet girl who'd rather sit and write poetry than bustle about with her peers. After an incident resulting in a panic attack and a trip to the hospital, Anna's foster mother sends her to stay with her aunt and uncle for the summer. Upon arriving in the small mountain town of Glenwood, Anna finds herself caught in the machinations of another world on the other side of the fog: warring witches, animal-headed skypirates, and the boldest, bravest, most interesting girl Anna has ever met. THROUGH MIST, VEIL, AND SUMMER is my homage to Studio Ghibli films. It's a fantasy romance with a dash of adventure and a sprinkling of self-contemplation. It's a story that moves a little slower, a little quieter. It is my fourth novel, written between October 1, 2017 and January 6, 2019.

8 167Being Frank
**Author's Note** This was my 7th attempt at writing this story. I've worked on the story since 20 years ago but my writing style and skills haven't been satisfactory to me. So after working as a digital content manager for 2 years and after a very long deliberation I've decided to drop this 7th attempt and start on my 8th attempt. This 8th attempt will be the same story but starting from a different point in the timeline of my story. Thank you for your support on this 7th try, it is only due to your reviews and comments that I have the confidence to work hard on my 8th attempt. I started on my 8th attempt with the intention that my 8th attempt will be the final one as I'm a lot more confident and content with my where my writing skills are currently at. Volume 1 In a world filled with magic, war, giants and other awesome races lives Frank. Who being Frank is somewhat of a hermit. He loves to tinker with various contraptions trying to bend the laws of magic to his will. Through his successes he has garnered some attention; unwanted attention. If only that was all there was to it. .... war is coming Volume 2 Frank was born as a normal child, born in a normal family. His father was a scientist and was busy working most days. This is also why Frank was especially excited when his father decided to take an extended holiday to travel to Asia with his family. But their trip turns out to be one from which there is no going back. Writer's notice: I will continue to participate in the NaNoWriMo every November till I finish all that I have planned to write. I expect to have this story finished in 14 years approximately.Update:I was unhappy with how I had first written the first and second volume but am leaving the editing and finishing of those volumes till later and have started on the third one. The chronological order so far is 2-1-3. Might fix that too later.
