《Restarting life as a peasant》Chapter 29
Advertisement
I reached my hideout and the team came close to me, I was sad. I said to them “Please leave me alone with my work for the day, I will talk to you later.” Surprisingly they didn’t object. They had already built the giant Forge 4 meter high from clay and a massive water reservoir made from dirt which was 50 meter in diameter, they were definitely industrious people. I connected mechanical parts of my air blower and other tools, I didn’t show them how the mechanical stuff worked. And they also didn’t understand it. And I made a massive fire in my forge. Put lots of irons in 10 different iron melting pots for making high carbon steel. When steel melted I looked around when I saw nobody around I built a big buzzsaw circle blade with my mind magic. I kept it in shape and air cooled it a little until it got its form. Then I quenched it in the massive water reservoir. Then in the same method I made the drill piece. My woodworking tools have also been made with this effort.
The next day They looked at me with unbelieving eyes. They said “You couldn't make such machines in one afternoon” I said to them “I didn't. They were ready before. I just bring them. They didn’t believe it but they can’t ask questions. Tom just opened the water valve, and with the water pressure buzzsaw started to spin very fast. He ran and grabbed a big stick lying in the ground; the buzzsaw cut it the moment he brought the stick to it. He was amazed. He cried “There is a machine, and All my life, all of it, I had to I had to. That's why you said to us to keep the wooden structures to last right?” I nodded.

With that buzzsaw and the drill we made many wooden structures, Also I was producing new nails constantly. But because the team was around I was using good old hammer and anvil methods.
My dad was an embodiment of a respectable looking guy. He was in his late thirties and had a nice beard with few gray hairs. His face is handsome. His voice is deep, his talking style is understandable and he always made emphasis in his words in the right places. When I told him he is going to be my puppet leader he was ok with it. But the part about him being the word of Altus (a made up title I made for him) made him reject me passionately he said “Son, us mortals don’t play games with gods.” I said to my father “But father, if I insulted or lied about an orc god what would happen?” He said “Noting, he wouldn’t care, gods don't care about people not worshiping to them” I said to him “So, who worships Altus?” He said “I think old forester John did.” I said to him “Old forester John died when I was seven. Altus is a forgotten god, he wouldn't care, like orc gods, or elf gods wouldn’t care what humans tell about them.” He nodded hesitantly and started “But…” I said “No I am in this mess because of you, not the other way around. You teached us if you made a mess you clean it, this is your mess, you're going to clean it. You are going to be the charismatic puppet of me, and you are going to convince a bunch of guys you are getting massages from Altus himself.” He nodded. Swordsman sergeant called Alex asked “But why are we risking angering a god.” I said to him “Do you think if I told the volunteers I am gathering them to fight a baron?” He said “You didn’t tell them?” I said “Of course not, peasants don’t arm themselves against a foreign lord unless they are members of another lord's army. And are we a lord's army?” Everybody shakes their heads. I said “But we are an army, serving someone much stronger than a lord or even a king. We fight for a god, we have nothing to fear” Tim said “But we are not” I said “Tim, they are not going to know that, by the time they learn either Herch is not going to have his head on his shoulders or...” Tim said “Us” I said “Yes brother, so be ready, and try to be the best warrior you can be. Only two scenarios that are going to end either his death or ours. So let's do everything we can to defeat him.”

Keys of the Endpoint
Keys of the Endpoint is an illustrated web serial about the re-birth of civilization in a fantastical world suffering from a recent apocalyptic event. Every day, people appear from the storms that ravage the Endpoint. Whisked away from their own time and place by storms in their homelands, these newcomers find themselves in a hostile place made up of ruins and people from every timeline imaginable. Stranger still, they all soon discover they're carrying silver keys that grant each holder incredible powers. On Earth, most people have mundane excuses for the disappearances, but not Isaac. Having lost his brother Finn to one of these storms, Isaac becomes obsessed with finding a pattern. Not to prevent more people disappearing, but rather to get taken by the storms himself in order to find his brother. While chasing Finn’s faint trail, Isaac soon discovers how little he really knew about himself, his brother and how much loss one person can take. In Keys of the Endpoint there's portal fantasy, personal drama, magic (useable by everyone), plenty of combat, power progression, mysteries, factions, feuds and eventually war (in that order). The magic system is well defined and modular with nigh infinite combinations. The story starts out with one of the two main characters looking for his lost brother but quickly expands in scope from that point on.

The Underbelly
There's something wrong with Port City. In the aftermath of the Hyde Park massacre, the city increased its police force dramatically, and Wyatt Milter found himself in uniform, with a gun, a badge, and dreams of someday making detective, but with no clue how to actually make it happen. These days a new, ugly kind of violence is rising on the streets. As a bizarre group of characters emerges from Port City's underbelly, Wyatt will be forced into making a difficult decision. Will he remain a cop? Or will he serve a different kind of justice? (Author's Note: I started writing this about 10 years ago and only now got around to the idea of uploading it. As a result, much of this predates the rising popularity of the Green Arrow. I'm uploading as is, but future drafts will make minor alterations to the character to differentiate it.)

Short Stories: Character Ideas
Training writing by randomly creating characters stories without screwing up some full-fledged story that I may or may not write in the future. There is a main story here; however, as I'm still bad at writing, I decided to just put a small part of it here. Leaving the full story for another book. Also, please notice that every single chapter can and will be edited at any time I think I'm ready to enhance this book's quality.
