《Adventures in the Pirate Continent》Adventures in the Pirate Continent: Episode 8 - They Ran as Fast They Could!
Advertisement
Dylan and Eliza ran as fast they could - faster than as fast as they could from the violent angry Vikings that they had both violently angered.
"Really, thank you for that. Also hi, I’m Eliza," said Eliza.
"Dylan," said Dylan. " I have a series of questions."
"Shoot," said Eliza.
"Okay, first one. Who are those people and why were they trying to kill you? Second, what the hell is this place? Where are we? Third, is this some land where I have I died; is this my dying hallucination?"
"First, they're an ancient clan of Vikings that recently arrived here. Second, where you are is the Pirate Continent. It's a place where the .1% of shipwrecked people end up. Three," Eliza slapped Dylan, "no."
"Good to know."
Eliza looked around and could hear the distinct machinations of Sid and his gang. She figured they must be over on his lake.
"Hey, would you like to not be killed by a group of angry Vikings who have seemingly tripled in size?”
"Yes, very much," said Dylan.
"Okay, so here's the thing. Would you be willing to jump into a lake full of sharks?"
"No," said Dylan.
"Okay. Well, we're going to."
Eliza violently tackled Dylan, punched a hole into what Dylan could now perceive as very unfit wood, and as it cracked down and she looked around the island, she came to the realization that this wasn't an island at all, not a traditional island. It was an island made out of ancient ships that must be so old they turned into a landscape. As she fell through what must have been one of the first ships mankind ever sailed, she appreciated how her life had allowed her to see a place such as this.
Then she was surrounded by sharks.

The Emperor's Chef
"Cook like your life depends on it, kid. Because it does." Charles had an enviable future lined up for him. Training from the age of five by some of the finest chefs in the world. Schooling at a top culinary academy in the capital. An honorable position as heir to House Boulier, a line of merchant-lords who have charmed the rich and powerful with their cooking for centuries. And in a single night, it all burned to ash. When the outbreak of war destroys his hometown, Charles is charged with escorting his family’s sacred treasure—a recipe book passed down for untold generations—out of harm's way. But his simple mission grows complicated when he’s captured by one of the most feared battalions in the world: the Spears of Mercy. Life as a prisoner in their war camp is brutal and uncertain. Charles has few allies and even fewer strengths to rely on. Only his skills in the culinary arts, honed over a lifetime in the kitchen, are deemed useful enough to keep him alive another day. But he’s not out of hope just yet. With a dash of wit, a pinch of luck, and some very creative cooking, he might just find a way to recover his family’s legacy and take back his freedom. This project is a food-themed fantasy that centers on cooking and chefs. The setting spans a wide world featuring ingredients/recipes both real and inspired by traditional fantasy. I'll eventually be publishing it as a full-length novel (or series of novels depending on length). These are the first draft chapters. I'll likely be re-writing more than once, then editing before publishing, so impressions and feedback are quite welcome. If you like the story so far and you're interested in being an early reviewer for the final product, feel free to message me. I'm looking for an artist to make some concept art and a cover (the cover shown here is just a temporary placeholder). A stand-alone novel for now, but it may turn into a series down the road.

Nameless
To all Anime Lovers and Readers. In a world where magic and advanced science exist, thanks to the man named Solomon, magic was unleashed and a new age had begun. As time went by, science had progressed at an astounding rate. However, as science evolved, so did magic. Magic had turned itself into many different types of energies. Energies that no other human could physically, mentally, magically surpass. That is the world Nameless lives in. Nameless, a boy who was disowned by his parents at the age of five. Nobody cared about him really. When he arrived to the orphanage, he was already greeted and bullied by a few kids. Why? Simply because he had no magic. Where he lives, magic was everything, and if that person has no magic, he doesn't belong there. Day after day, Nameless continues his attempt on surviving in the orphanage. Until finally at the age of 12, he was adopted by a strange and huge man. From there on out Nameless's story began, and a whole new world is discovered. This is a story that will change Nameless's life forever. Author's Say: Discontinued, also, don't read it. It's cringe. Please, for my sanity. SANITY!
