《The Fallen Ascending》Chapter 23: BLANK PLACEHOLDER
Advertisement
Author's Note: This chapter is blank. It doesn't exist.
"WHA???" , I hear all you fine readers saying. "He's lost it completely, finally! What the hell do we have a blank chapter for??"
It's simply because I'm going to offer my work over on a different site as well. The Fallen Ascending -- on Inkitt.com The thing is, the site there auto-numbers chapters starting at 1. This story has a prologue before chapter 1.... The count is off, and that's just a PITA to deal with, so a blank chapter here fixes that issue.
To be honest, in my opinion, they have a much better interface for reading things on -- at least on my iPad. RRL still has more options, reply forums, allows comments, and lots of other features which means I prefer it on the PC; but when on the tablet I just want to read, and I find the other place better for that. (Adjustable font sizes is a huge plus for these old eyes...)
From now on, you'll have the option for viewing on whichever site you prefer and whichever suits your needs the best.

A King in the Clouds
Tanlar. A cruel, repulsive, and foul word. It meant untitled, officially, but it also meant ungifted, unable, unworthy, unnecessary, unhuman. It was more a curse than a term, a badge only the damned and condemned wore. To be a tanlar was to know your life, your entire being, was insignificant. Once Kaizer had resigned himself to such a fate, but those times had passed. He may have been untitled, but he was anything but untalented. He refused to scrape by at the bottom of society. Those who stood above him could sneer all they liked, but he wouldn’t suffer being stepped on for long. He’d be better, much better. But of course he would be. ‘Fate’ demanded it so. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] What To Expect: The story of a boy becoming a man becoming a king + everything that entails. Largely gamelit, but later arcs could be called litrpg. Also schemes. A lot of schemes. I do love some good ol' fantasy politics and intrigue. Minimum Word Count a Week: TBA after Writathon Release Time(s): Daily for as long as I can/until the end of the Writathon. I also write The Deathseeker [Returning Dec 5th]
8 82Barbarians
The Triumvirate has known peace for 10,000 years. Their technology dwarfs that of Man, and for almost a century now Humanity has done everything they have asked of us, in order to learn even a fraction of their secrets. With their help, we have abolished poverty, and hunger. War is now a thing of the past. We have made incredible strides in a very short time period...and yet the Triumvirate races keep us at arm's length. They see us as half-evolved apes, too violent even now to keep company with our betters. They call us...Barbarians. But sometimes, a Barbarian is exactly what you need. (This incredible piece of artwork was a commission by Harry Rowland (@rowl_art_)...and I couldn't be more amazed at the job he's done. If you're looking for something like this, give him a yell.)

Its not easy being green. Or any other color. Life's just kinda shit in general. At least it is for a goblin trying to survive on their own. I'll admit I've burned a few bridges, but in my defense, they were oh so flammable, and burned beautifuly. At any rate, I'm an exile now, scraping by in human lands, where pitchforks and torches are always just around the corner. I'd look for a better life, but I've got my hands full just staying alive when any random asshole could turn out to be a retired adventurer strong enough to hold ten bulls above their head with one hand tied behind their back. How did they pull that bullshit anyway?
8 69Wandering Web
Mia isn't certain of a great many things. She's not certain of where she woke up. She's not certain why she's suddenly got so many legs when she KNOWS she didn't have them before. Even if they feel quite familiar... She's not certain of who it was that's been talking in her head. She IS certain that she's not who, or where she used to be, and she's certain that she's not just going to sit around and die, as freaky as this all is. Something major has changed, she needs to find something, and she needs to explore this world to do so if she ever wants to be at any peace. Hopefully, she'll make more friends than enemies in the process.
8 147Guide to Conquering the World of Magic (Cultivation, LitRPG, Isekai, Yandere)
In this world there’s only one King who have the Earth on his Palms and the Heaven underneath his feet, and I — Weiss Na – am such a King.

But after the lightning stopped, I opened my eyes in a different world, where Martial Arts does not reign supreme. A land where Sorcery is called Magic… how interesting… Those words were the start of my journey to conquer the world. “I am a King in my world, what makes you think I won’t be in this one!?” Now, let’s see how long it will take for me to conquer this world. -Updates Twice a Week for now [During Tuesdays and Fridays] -
8 91Conformity (Larry Stylinson AU)
