《Thog: The barbarian》Chapter 2
Advertisement
Tracy went strait to the adventurer's guild. Not that he was all that eager to turn in the quest, but because Thog just skipped inside, the kind receptionist is quite patient with Thog, but he was not willing to chance getting kicked out of another frequented institution.
Thog having shipped in to the guild as he often did, waltzed strait up to the counter. And by strait to the counter, I meant that he literally skipped strait up to the counter ignoring anything that might be in the way as if they didn't exist.
The adventurers who just got trampled were about to say something to him, but their boss stood in there way.
I would suggest you ignore what just happened, I am also not that happy about being trampled on but this is Thog we are talking about, and I really don't want to see more of my underlings thrown through a wall again. -Adventurer's boss
The adventurers noticing the name Thog started sweating cold drops of fear. They had heard stories about Thog, and if any one of the numerous stories they had heard of the half-ork that had tried to drag many 10' tall frightened dragons in to the guild that was about the same size as the guild were true, it was best to stay out of the way.
Thog greats pretty desk lady! Look, Thog has new pets! -Thog
The desk lady smiles, at first she was quite scared by the half-ork, especially since the first time he had a dragon in tow, but as it turns Thog was just like a giant green child.
Good evening Thog, and what sort of pet are you going to show me today? -Pretty desk lady
Thog has baby goblins! This one is Gobgob, and this one is Hobgob! -Thog

Thog showed the pretty desk lady each frightened goblin in turn.
Oh! So does this mean you have completed your task? -Pretty desk lady
She looks at the goblin children, they were kind of ugly but that made them a bit endearing. She did not personally like goblins, but it was better then most of the things he had tried to show her. Especially the goul that he had previously shown her, the goul was covered in maggots, and was chewing on Thog's arm, not that he seemed to mind it.
That's great Thog, by the way, where is Tracy? -Pretty desk lady
Thog looks around, then panics a bit. Thog has left his best buddy behind. Just as he was about to run out the door, a very tired elven paladin walks in the door wheezing a bit.
Thog! For the lords sake, please stop running off! -Tracy
Tracy steps up to the counter, and bows to the pretty desk lady. The pretty desk lady blushes a bit, she had quite a large crush on the paladin, not that Tracy seemed to notice.
"Good evening Lena, I hope Thog has not bothered you overly much?"-Tracy
"N... No! Thog has been perfectly fine!- Lena
"Yes! Thog just show pretty desk lady Hobgob, and Gobgob!" -Thog
Thog raises the baby goblins in turn, who seem quite frightened, and out of sorts as you would expect from two children who have seen their family tossed aside and been kidnapped by someone able to bash their heads in on accident.
"Yes yes, in any case, might I accept payment for this job soon, as I am quite tired and wish to put up for the night" -Tracy
"Yes, right away! Umm....." -Lena
Lena fidgets a bit.
"Yes, what is it?" -Tracy

"Oh... Um the guild leader wishes to speak with you, I was told to tell you whenever you got back" -Lena
Tracy sighs once again, this could only mean more trouble, potentially from Thog wrecking something once again. Tracy gives Thog a dirty look, who smiles brightly in return.
"Oh, very well. If I might enquire what this is about" -Tracy
"I believe he said something about a mission only you could handle" -Lena
At this, Tracy sighed once more, usually these missions led to dangerous monsters, that Thog seems quite fond of. The last mission was against a lich that Thog decided to keep. That one lasted a month of discomfort for both the paladin, and the lich. At some point the lich begged Tracy to free him, and in exchange he would mend his ways, the lich currently works as a teacher at the local orphanage.
"Yes, I will go see him, but do you think it could wait a day, I am after all quite tired." -Tracy
"Yes, he had said that it was not that urgent, in any case here is your reward for the elite goblin subjugation!" -Lena
Tracy accepted the bag, which was heavy with gold
"Yes, well I will take my leave then, Thog is getting impatient." -Tracy
Thog at that time was hugging and stroking a goblin baby much to its dismay, Hobgob if Tracy recalls correctly, though he can't tell them apart that well.
As they leave the guild, one could here many a sigh of relief.
"Come back soon!" -Lena

Tim the Engineer
Summoned against his will to a world of swords and magic, an engineering student struggles to find a way home under the shadow of a world devouring threat. ***************************** Updates: 5/13/19: Revisions to several chapters for clarity, grammar, and style. 4/29/19: A short side story and artwork has been added to the blog. 4/8/19: A Side Story has been updated on my new blog (every writer is required to have one). https://talesfromliahar.wordpress.com/ ***************************** “The summoning scenarios are broken down into groups of ten.” Emi Ito stated. “Don’t, don’t you dare say another word.” Muttered Genzo Uchida. His eyes had turned bloodshot and his hands shook with rage. “The first thirty…” “Shut up!” Genzo bellowed “How dare you help these disrespectful gaijin?” Flecks of spit and madness flew from his face, his fist raised ready to strike. But Emi did not flinch, instead she was about ready to continue when Yuma Takeuchi interrupted her. “Uchida, please,” her sweet sounding words could melt ice. “I think we will have a better chance of getting home if we all work together.” When she glanced up with her sleepy looking eyes at Genzo Uchida he deflated visibly. “Were not getting home.” Uchida said coolly. “Group summoning, large, that puts us in the 60 series. No one came to greet us after five minutes of arrival. That leaves scenarios 68 and 69. In scenario 68 there is something that binds the large group together; they are all classmates or a single family. But thanks to the gaijin” he spit out the word “I think we are scenario 69 with no way home.” Ikko Inoue’s eyes went wide, while Katsukno and Hayata started muttering to themselves. Tim took on a serious look and rubbed his scruffy chin. Emi maintained her stoic expression while trying to find something to refute. McKenzie glanced at Randall and giggled. Randall took the prompting of his teammate and followed up by approaching Genzo. “Uh, so we are in a sixty-nine?” “Yes.” Replied Genzo with the seriousness of someone who’s life was about to end. McKenzie covered her mouth and snickered. “You and me, were stuck in a sixty-nine situation?” Randall pushed with a grin. “Yes, we are all stuck in a sixty-nine scenario together!” Genzo retorted in anger. McKenzie fell on her butt laughing. “What the hell is so funny?” Demanded Genzo, whose face had turned red. “It’s a problem with the automatic translation.” Retorted Tim. Randall, who seemed unable to quit started in again “So, about this sixty-ni…” Genzo interrupted Randall with a swift punch to the face. But, because of their height difference it was a bit of an uppercut that left Randall rattled. Tim and Ikko moved to step in between the two, but Genzo showed no further hostility. Instead he just stared at his clenched fist with such intensity it grabbed the attention of the room. “I unlocked a skill.” He said bluntly. ***************************** This is not a light novel, but people who like light novels should enjoy the themes of this book. ***************************** A Map of the Region

Extant Expanse
The answer to an overpopulated, unemployed, robot replaced, under-resourced, power crisis, climate crisis, a poverty-stricken world, where the few have and most have not? It took a few decades of technology development, a few genius minds, and a few corporate takeovers, and a planet in crisis. Yet that answer should be obvious. * * * This is a first time writing attempt. I have no idea what's going to happen or where this story is headed. I simply had an idea for a story I wanted to explore. Fanfiction elements. I hope to release monthly, no guarantees though. * * * Unknown Cover Art

The Head That Wears The Crown
It's a tale as old as time. Boy goes to funeral. Boy gets sucked into a different world. Boy has to lead a settlement. Boy has to lead a settlement? Boy has to lead a settlement. This is a story about that settlement, and some other stuff. Maybe. Disclaimer: Not sure if it qualifies enough for a gore tag. There is a description of someone's death somewhere in this, but I don't think it is descriptive enough to justify a gore tag. Disclaimer part deux: I initially started writing this as background for another story but got so into it I just ended fleshing it out a bit. Disclaimer part tres: People love reading disclaimers don't they? It's why I've included so many. They're just for you. Disclaimer part four: I know, this is getting egregious. You're starting to find it less funny. Just wait till the twentieth disclaimer, it will start being funny again. Disclaimer part five: I'm kidding, this is the last one. I don't promise I'll read every comment or message, but I certainly welcome your feedback. Disclaimer part six: I lied, it wasn't the last one. I wrote this story without breaking it down into chapters. It just goes, that means that the chapter ends when it ends, not when there is a convenient break in the story. That means that it's very annoying for you as a reader since chapters can end mid sentence. Hah! Sucker! Disclaimer part seven: Get ready for slow updates. Who knows when this will continue. Toss it on read later and come back in fifty years. Disclaimer part eight: Cover Photo by Arthur Ogleznev on Unsplash

Chronicles of the dragon slayer [old version]
Julian was your normal happy go lucky kid in his younger years. He did everything that a normal 10-year-old that came from a relatively middle class family. Playing around with friends, going to school, and going on trips with his parents every once in a while. But life had other plans for his future than letting him grow like any normal teenager. At a young age his parents were killed, his friends slaughtered and family stolen. This had broken Julian completely, and hence he left on a journey to find strength to seek his revenge. But life was not yet done playing with his life, so it showed Julian that he had no talent to do anything that would lt him gain his revenge. It had become clear to Julian that the heavens did not favor him, so he left on one last journey when… ***** Ahhh I don't really know what else to add but ill write it here anyway, this is my first time writing a story, so I am still experimenting with things, so it is possible that you might find the beginning of the story to be a bit slow, but I assure you the later chapters and things I have in plan will not disappoint you. Oh, I also forgot to mention that I have taken inspiration from waaaay tooo many novels that I liked, and while there aren't any specific ones that I based this upon there are a few that I definitely took inspiration from like : the author's POV, chronicles of the heavenly demon [you can probably see where this inspired me ;)], etc.
