《Dream Theater》52

With time as with all things, Pxan optimized his routine.
In the mornings when he rose he prepared a small breakfast and eat it in five minutes. Afterwards, he petted the dog a little and worked on his projects. After this, he was off to work in the library.
When the lights became dimmer and the work was done he returned to his house to be greeted by his dog. He had a small dinner and was off to work on his projects again. In between breaks, when he couldn’t work anymore he read. Inquisitors had unlimited access to the book catalogue and so in a few months time, Pxan had read more than in his entire life. The styles and plots were so different and vibrant compared to the modern censored books that young boys read in school.
At work everything was monotonous. Since the incident he wasn’t assigned violent tasks, he was happy about this but he also knew that it wouldn’t last forever. One day or the other Lhyps or Ides would call him, or more simply, send him a note with some violent task. This was life after all. To be sincere now he didn’t felt much different from when he was working in the police force. Except that now he had more freedom and time of course.

SOMEWHERE IN THE LOW QUARTERS NEAR A RIVER
The building looked like a small shelter made of stone and clay. If it was not for the two bodyguards at the entrance Pxan would have never guessed what sort of activity they did in there. The inquisition was weird, some law they enforce with all might and other act as if they never even existed. He showed a small card to the bodyguards and he was free to enter. Inside two man in their middle age and full of scars were fighting on a ring with axes while people around drunk and talked.

A man in a white suit waved his hand at him, there was a chair next to him. He sat and Pxan waited for a conversation opener, a few lines. Yet nothing came out of the white suite man so he was forced to speak first.

The white suit man finally turned and looked at Pxan >
“What?!?” Pxan thought to himself, realizing that the man knew a lot more than him.
> saying this he left the club and begun walking on the shores of the river, trying to figure out a way to obtain those informations. Rene for how friendly he was would never say something so important to him. Ides and Lhyps were out of question. He already checked the archives and found nothing. If he wanted to know those things he had to go there and check them himself.

8 892The Hopeful Project
A pair of twins stumble their way into the world of blood magic, lizard people, and cultivation powered mecha-armor. And by stumble, I mean one of them falls on their face while the other laughs. [Writathon Participant] People read this far? What are you doing down here? Escape! The chapter buttons are over there, stop reading this. No? Fine. This book is an excuse to put a world I spent around 3-4 months of my life building over the pandemic into writing. I was planning on doing the writathon last year, but somehow managed to confuse October and November. Dont laugh, I'm already ashamed enough. This book is about a pair of twins, doing twin things: calling each other names, going to school, learning how to use their blood to become unstoppable, juggernaut, killing machines... You know, twin stuff. It's like if someone stuffed a school arc inside of a tournament arc inside of a war arc. A good time, basically. I hope you enjoy it.

8 221The Blackgloom Bounty
In the dark days before the end of the first millennium, Scotland (or Scotia as some called it) was a leaderless hodgepodge of tribes, clans and warring factions all bent on the same thing--domination of the land. Wizards, sorcerers and magicians still plied their trade, though much of their power had given way to the machinations of men and their war machines. To the south of Scotia lay the realm of the Saxons ruled by Ethelred the Unready and his ruthless minions. To the west, Ireland had just come of age. Everywhere else the constant threat of a lightning swift Viking incursion loomed over the land.Growing up in this lawless world is a displaced Daynin McKinnon, heir to an ancient familial keep on the island of Rhum. He and his grandfather Ean scratch out a living amongst the Saxons, careful never to divulge their clan heritage. That all changes when Kruzurk Makshare chooses Daynin as the ideal prospect to help him bring down a vile sorcerer named The Seed of Cerberus, ferreted away in his impregnable fortress at Blackgloom. Little does Kruzurk know that in so doing, he will launch young Daynin, himself and others on a vast, dangerous quest that no one could have foreseen. *****One Hollywood producer has dubbed this three book fantasy epic from Jon Baxley as, "BRAVEHEART meets THE LORD OF THE RINGS." Real places, people and events flesh out this fast moving, multi-faceted semi-historical series but fear not fantasy readers. There's more than enough of the magical, mystical mayhem you have come to expect from great fantasy. Romance readers, too, will enjoy the 'spice' in these characters--and there are a lot of them--both human and otherwise.

This volume and the next two contain hundreds of pages filled with rollicking good times, fast moving action and a page turning adventure you will not soon forget."Books In The Scythian Stone Saga:THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY Episode 1 - 500 pagesTHE REGENTS OF RHUM Episode 2 - 800 pagesTHE SCIONS OF SCOTIA Episode 3 - 800 pages
