《Draconic Transcendence (Progression Fantasy)》6.5. Aspect of Deception, Kallad Raven (Part 2.5)
Advertisement
The Hunters’ guild in Acies handed out assignments to hunters who came to the city, and bought any salvaged goods from them for a decent price. One could make a good living from the Hunters’ guild.
Weekdays were always slow, the clerk at the guild was told this when he started the job during the week prior. He was told that hunters would be in the middle of expeditions during the week, so he shouldn’t expect many people to come in to rent out the training or sparring grounds. Though there was the odd hunter or group here or there that would come in to sell their goods, he could feel the day slowly pass by him like a snail trying to climb a tree.
“The sparring grounds here seem big enough. Let’s go and ask if they’re free.”
The clerk heard a voice coming through the entrance door to the guild. Customers? He readied himself to talk to the customers, these were some of the first he’d work with as part of the weekday shift.
Then the air grew cold and heavy. The door opened, and the hallmark red hair and red eyes of the Deceiver came through the door. Frozen, the clerk stared at him with wide eyes.
“What the... Why’s he like an icicle?” The red haired man spoke with genuine concern.
“It’s because you’re the Deceiver, idiot.” A black haired ponytailed man with a scar on his right eye responded to him.
It took the red haired man a second. “Oh... Oh right. I’ll just tone it down then.”
Relief. As if he could only just breathe now, the clerk took heavy breaths. He pointed toward the sparring grounds and gave a thumbs up as he heaved and gulped down large chunks of air.

The red haired man left some gold coins on the desk, “We’ll be on our way there then, thanks!”
The black haired man stared at the red haired man, “You’re overpaying.”
The red haired man shrugged, “Thought I’d tip him since he nearly died.”
The black haired man rolled his eyes, “How generous.”
Following behind the two men were two children who seemed like polar opposites. One held herself outwardly high and proud, while the other seemed focused on himself without regard for the world around him.
This might be the strangest day I’ve ever had. The clerk pocketed the excess gold and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Hope they don’t destroy the place.
He threw away his worries since there was literally nothing he could do to stop them.

Kingdom of Tyr (Original)
This fiction has been concluded as of the end of Book 1, the portion of the story posted here. There will be a complete rewrite as a separate fiction in the future to make the system more consistent and add more to the world while expanding on the events within this fiction. This rewrite will begin eventually, posted as a separate story. Colt, twelve, is walking home from school when he's approached by another boy dressed oddly, who asks him - theoretically - about living in another world. After asking some information about the theoretical other world, Colt says he'd probably prefer to live there, to get away from the problems he has on Earth. Once Colt confirms that, he finds himself in an abandoned city, the other boy revealing himself to be a god, who then offers to train Colt until he can stand on his own and live by himself. After a couple of months, the god sends Colt off for greater training, to learn to use both Aura and Mana, with his only instructions being to return every now and then to visit, and to make friends and have lots of fun. This story follows Colt, a boy named Tyler he meets in the new city, and their journey to growing stronger, having fun, and striving to beat each other. Note: this story is not intended to be professional-quality, and it does draw inspiration from many sources. That said, it is its own story, in its own world. It has never been and never will be edited. It will also have multiple PoV's, starting somewhere after Chapter 8.

SWTOR: The Alpha Legacy - Alexandra 'Under the Black'
This was the first character backstory and first full story in The Old Republic era after 'Project Alpha: A Summary: 'Old Republic to Current Operational Era'. This one was actually written much later. Several of the full stories were done and there was a need to introduce the Mother of several of the main characters. Much later on I started a timeline and this seemed to fit nowhere else, but right after the introduction story: Alexandra De'nabre lost everything on one of the moons of Felucia. But life found her again. As a Mirialan Jedi, she was sworn to the Unity and to the Force; casting both away once she believed both left her. The Force finds her again. And brings her back a part of her life she believed she lost. Her children. But in a cruel twist of fate, the very Republic she once defended is suddenly out to get her. Not because in her new life as an infamous pirate she committed crimes against them. The children she lost are now wards of the Republic and a special project called: Alpha. And they will stop at nothing to keep Alexandra from reclaiming them.
