Litrea's kingdom army
*Thud, thud, thud...*
Or so marched the two thousand-strong army of Litrea. From afar one could only see a sea of black and red. From close, one could see the uniforms and classes of the soldiers.
This army, was known for the unity, blood-lust as well as being able to only identify, the class of the soldiers, such as bowman, swordsman or swordshieldusers. Such was the standard army of Litrea, proficient at moving forward and lasting at position.
The prime reason for that was simple - Joining the army is obligatory, so every soldier has another, so called life-style class, such arrangement would usually be disadventageus during war, for Litrea, however it was an adventage, as every person was taught how to use their skills in army. For example farmers prepared the ground for tents, and were doing manual labour, blacksmith were attending to equipement, tailors to armours and so on...
Such an army was marching at a single city-state, separated from their allies. For todays expedition, however it was slightly different, as at the front of the army was riding a woman in a dress, which due to it's length was covering the sides of the horse - she, the supposed commander, was the daugter of the military advisor, arrogant, greedy and merciless. In some circles, it's talked about how once of her father's concubines got pregnant and she poisoned her, causing miscarriage in order for her, not to lose power and her father's favour.
By her side was riding one of the five great generals of Litrea - Bjorn Nose-Cutter. When talking about him, one must mention that he is one of the few loyal to the crown. While easy to anger, he is as quick to calm down, known for his unpredictability on battlefield (he once cut down one of his higher ups at he battlefield, supposedly he was annoying or so he said.), so if you anger him while he carries a weapon - you better keep your distance and shield in-between.

Soon the saw the city, still small.
"Stop!"
*THUMP!* All stood in place, like a statues made by nature without as much as a sway of a spear tip.
"Prepare for siege!" Ordered Bjorn.
*Clang* *shiiing*
The army took out the swords, and stepped to the sides, revaling several siege machines. At the sides of the army, some walked out and started preparing the camp. Soon enought the camp was ready and everyone was busy preparing for battle.
Inside the city
"Was that the right decision my lady?" Questioned the woman in maid uniform.
"It's not like we had any choice. Besides, I have a good feeling about them." Answered Nicole. Normally ofter such a reason, one would be doubtfull, in Lushi family's case however it was different due to their in-born skill: Strenghtened Instincts. This skill appeared only once per generation and as such there was a certain rule within the family - Whoever posses the in-born skill, shall be the next-in-line, untill he/she commits capital offence. This skill was very easy to understand - It strenghtened the instincts, it could help them in deciding during crisis and decide the character of some people. Up till now, there was never a situation, where the skill holder was wrong.
Forest beside the city, half an hour later
'ENEMY!' Tried to shout the guard of the Litrea's camp, however the hand covering his mouth succesfully prevented him from doing so. Soon the guard was laid down on the ground without any armour, standing behind him was he himself. Or at least that's what it looked like.
In reality it was one of the Ryan's bodies. It's race was Doppelganger, otherwise known as shapeshifter.

The Radiant War
The human world is aflame with war. Nations clash with their neighbours, while the Kelvon Empire, bulwark of the human world, stands on the brink of civil war. The plans of the enemies of mankind to destroy human civilisation, to restore their own mastery of the world, are well on the way to success. The people of Helberion have vowed to defeat those plans, though. Peace must be restored between the various peoples of mankind so that they can combine their efforts against their true enemy. Even while her country strives to avoid conquest and defeat at the hands of their traditional enemies the Carrowmen, therefore, Princess Ardria journeys to Carrow to meet with the enemy King in an almost hopeless attempt to persuade him of the truth. All her hopes rest on the assumption that he in an unwitting dupe of the true enemy, but lurking at the back of her mind is the fear that he may be all too aware of the truth, that he may have sold out humanity for the promise of personal power. If this is true, then all that awaits her at the end of her journey through fear and danger is imprisonment and the life of a hostage to be used against her father, King Leothan. The Brigadier would help her if he could, but he and Malone, his former batman, are far away, each having their own missions to try and ensure the survival of human civilisation. Having completed his latest task, the Brigadier must race to join her, to assist and protect her, but will he reach her before she arrives at the palace of the enemy King? And will the Princess still have a country to be Princess of by the time she arrives there? Because even if Helberion manages to defeat the all conquering armies of Carrow there is another, even deadlier threat waiting in the wings against which there may be no defence... This is volume three of the Ontogeny series. If you haven't read volume one, Ontogeny, and volume Two, The Electric Messiah, you should read them first.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
