《Solitude's Requiem》A Seer's Blessing
Advertisement
"home you say, wanderer? I wonder what that would be. However, we have derailed from our goal long enough."
"Well, it seems you know a lot about me so I would like to have some answers of my own."
"What answers do you search?"
"You seem capable of knowing enough to go outside. Yet Randyl talks as if he's the only one capable of doing that. Why is that?"
"This is the city of Luciel wanderer. But I've been blinded and now I resemble Asariel. The church has been on my back ever since."
"This place has a church?" I ask flabbergasted.
"yes, Mind you it's not a church of redemption or anything like that. Could you see any of these demons and devils actually praying? No, I didn't think so." She says with her typical soft tone. Yet I could hear her tone get a little bitter.
"So how does the church even exist then?"
"The church has the authority for giving names and Luciel's blessing. Luciel's blessing gives more power and the name gives the recognition that you are one of the demons worthy of carrying her burden."
"Would that be something I should strive for?"
"I would even say it's necessary for your goal." She immediately answers before continuing.
"If your goal is finding this new home. Then I would guess that you will have to cross to Genesias. It's the church who has a lot of information about things like that."
"How should I try and gain this Blessing?"
"Become prominent in the arenas of the blood district. If you could show them that you're a strong demon yet named. then they could be very interested in what you could achieve."
I think about the advice Leilaya has given me. It seems I need to try and gather favor with the church. Otherwise, I won't be able to travel to Genesias. Will I be able to find it there? I don't know but I see no reason not to try. Whilst in the middle of my thoughts, her voice rings out once more to me.

"We should probably end our conversation here. You have a lot to think about. Let me give you what you came here for in the first place."
As soon as she finished speaking I could see a runic white eye glow through her blindfold. She beckons me to come closer to her. I come closer and as soon as I stand next to her. She places her hand against my forehead and speaks.
"Valaris Zatar Amoulis"
Her runic eye starts glowing once more and I can feel some sort of "clarity" rushing into my mind.
"I've given you seer's sight." She says as if I should already know.
"What does that mean? I ask hoping it's something cool.
"It helps in deciphering unknown magic and helps in understanding rituals."
She pauses before she continues to speak.
"The one who seeks power should first seek knowledge after all."
I give her a nod as I make my way out of the small house. Randyl who seems to have heard me leave quickly follows me out before speaking.
"I knew that great sir would get my mistress approval. Randyl is very excited about all the things great sir will do."
"You say that as if the reason for me bringing me here wasn't me threatening to kill you."
Randyl's face gave me a mischievous smirk before running back inside.
'Strange...very strange' I think to myself.
'I guess I should get back to Ashmodai and see if I just have to eat this stupid card or if there is more to it.'

Sixth Finger
Year 506. The last human empire surrenders to the Great Majin Lord and joins his cause. As the continent in its entirety is submitted to the absolute rule of an undead stories arise of inhuman creatures that led his majesty's armies to terrifying success. While the demon lord grasps the entire world in his hand, generals and comrades eleven of his most loyal and trusted serve as the extension of his will and power. Common world knows these beings only by their position's names. Fingers. Goblins goblins goblins... I hate those pesky creatures. Not smart enough to talk, but intelligent enough to kill. Well. In this world of madness where blood spills left and right fantasy creatures run rampart alongside crazed devotees of long dead gods all meanwhile the frickin Demon Lord is slowly gaining power in order to take over the world precisely without causing its immediate collapse, our little Gob will have quite a chance to find true strength and maybe even understand why humans often do stupid things for this weird word that starts with the letter "L". Who knows, maybe he will even get a better name than Gob in the process... The story is posted daily in short chapters (from 900 to 2000 words per chapter) The story is NOT an Isekai. It's a high fantasy story with isekai element's at best (Majin lord is a Majin after all). I spent some time to create a custom, magic system I hope to properly explore together with you my dear reader. So what are you doing? Go read those early chapters! The story is said to only get better after you drink it... I mean read it. Seriously. After 15 chapters you won't stop. I just feel like pointing something out. I never read "The Iron Teeth: A Goblin's Tale" which seems to be the first thing my fiction will be compared to... P.S. Cover artwork was made by my very own me (hurray me!) PM if you want something painted (no promises). I sometimes lurk in RR discord.

Calf the Furless (First Edition)
Calf, the heir presumptive has fallen short once again. As a half-being his competition has always stood heads and shoulders above his physical capabilities but this time, more is at play in keeping him down than the fetters of human ability. "THEY" have interfered and as a consequence, Calf is thrown into a Rites the likes of which only the annals and a few of the long-lived have seen. Will he prevail, or will his story end before it even begins. PROLOGUE: The rite of passage. Every creature known and yet to be known by man undergoes its own challenges. These separate the chaff from the worthy crop, whittling down the challengers for every progressive leg of the journey we call life. Be it formalized and observed, or unwittingly followed in the execution of daily life, every form of it is ritualized. That ritual is what we call the rites, the passage being the continuation of life itself, for even when metaphorical, a death is certain in choice and accommodations should one fail to meet its expectations. ⯁⯁⯁ At the top of any group stands a king, set apart from all by qualification, ranging from singular to multivariate by the complexity of each group. To those of the central forests of Greater Liminos, better known as Taurreland, strength is king. Though the land abounds with creatures great and small, boasting intellect, arcane skills and artisanal prowess, strength stands above all of them, second to none. 'Strength will prevail over all' stands as their motto, and to that end, the Rites of a King require triumph over forces from all disciplines. ⯁⯁⯁ Day 300,Year seventeen,Future calendar of the Taurs... Such a rites would occur on that day, and its events would be the first in a sequence of challenges to the status quo. A single answer would emerge to satisfy all the questions that had been asked of a certain Prince for the past 8 years, but as a consequence, that answer would put to question all that was tradition, and the weight of hereditary strength.
