《After Ragnarok (GL - Norse Progression Fantasy)》Arc 3 Part 2

“YOU SAID THERE WOULDN’T BE MONSTERS HERE!”
Erika dived backwards as the argument went on around her, these were only wargs so it wasn't quite as irresponsible but still.
“I SAID THERE SHOULD BE, IT’S A SMALL CAVE DEEP IN THE… ON YOUR LEFT!”
Bjorn kicked hard and swung his heavy one-handed axe, Erika still couldn’t give him his hand back but he’d adapted well, Erika thought he might actually be better with the axe.
“WHY IS THIS ONE FOLLOWING ME!?”
Across from him was Katlin, running back and forth desperately away from a warg pup and waving her arms around. It turns out Alf’s are physically much worse than a human, weaker and more easily tired at least, something about sweat Katlin had said? Katlin had missed her opening shot in the tight confines of the tunnel and was now using her rune covered bow as a stick to jab the pup back whenever it got to close.
“RUN RUN FOR YOUR LIVEEEES!”
Bjorn swatted the tiny thing hard into the wall, Erika could hear its bones breaking as she hurled a pair of [Acid Arrow]’s down the tunnel, burning the faces off the last two adults. Bjorn had been right, this deep in the Wold wargs were practically snacks, but they bred fast enough that some stuck around.
“TAKE THIS BEASTS!!!!”
Barely managing to dodge as a flaming arrow the size of a tree Erika sighed deeply, that was a third step divine art which is a waste AND the warg was nearly dead already! The damn thing was missing an arm!
“Don’t worry… its probably dead! Should I shoot it again?”
“NO.” Chorused Bjorn and Erika together.
Katlin pouted then perked up a bit. “AH right I should get back to the others right and warn them?”

“Warn them?”
“About the terrible peril!”
Bjorn sighed and slung an arm around Katlin’s narrow shoulders. “Kat, it was five wargs including the pup, that isn't peril.”
“They could have been! What if one was the last chosen of Loki! Or they were all Twilight blooded?”
“A WARG CHOSEN ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!”
“THEY COULD HAVE TWILIGHT-BLOOD THOUGH!”
Erika blocked out the bickering and began to loot with her little money-grubbing hands, she had never really had a chance before but she’d discovered after the lotting spree in the city that she liked to gather things, to take all the shiny gold and valuable items and hoard them. Obviously wargs don’t have much to loot on them but a few wore bandoliers and belt pouches. Erika opened them cautiously with the end of a long knife and kicked the contents around rather than touching it, Aesir alone knows how dirty all of it was.
A few flawed gems and shiny rocks later Erika wandered over to the argument and kicked the ground loudly. As the other two finally looked around at her she showed them her loot and nodded at the cave. “Nothing else here, right? Like wargs or treasure?”
Bjorn smiled and looked around for a moment, Erika saw a glimmer in his eye as he activated a divine art of the first circle. A few moments later he shook his head. “Got them all Erika… Katlin you ready to go back?”
Before he could finish that sentence, Katlin had scrambled up and out of the cave mumbling something about fungus traps and tripwires as Bjorn helped Erika climb out, despite only having one hand a veteran ranger was still a veteran and levered the vitki up and out without fuss.
Erika patted herself down, thanked Bjorn and then split the loot with him as Katlin kept jogging away from them.
The Wold didn’t seem as bad as she’d been told really.

The Salamanders
Hadica was built around one of five Towers, an infinite structure filled with floors of monsters, magic, and treasures that the city plunders like clockwork. Most of the city, at least. Growing up in Westhill, Micah's family abstained from all of their Tower's bounties. He became an [Alchemist] at an age younger than most and just wanted to level in peace, but soon ran out of mundane ingredients to brew into potions. Ryan is a budding [Fighter] with the strange ability to mimic beasts, including monsters, but he doesn't understand it or even himself. After a Tower climb goes horribly wrong, their lives and the world around them begin to change as they try to figure out who they want to be. The Salamanders is a slow-paced story about characters growing up in and exploring a fantasy setting. It updates sporadically. Please mind the tags. Also, there is a Discord now! Click here.

Spiko's Journey
This is a Story of Spiko. An once normal cat, now a cat-girl. Which found herself in a new world. Searching for her home and anything that can hold her attention long enough. Join Spiko on her travels, in a world that is as unforgiving as it is breath taking. Be warned. This is a somewhat slow burn story. I expect that I will need a few chapters to get the rough outlines out there. General Info: -I really do this mostly, cause i need to freshen up my grammar and stuff. So, I will go over these chapters a lot, if I find errors (or you find them). I will mark revised chapters and what I changed in them ( if it is of importance to the story). I'm sorry for anything i might unleash onto the world. -There will be a little of everything in this. But I will never do harem stuff. Or horror just for the sake of it being horrific. No needless bad popes, bandits that rape villagers. Just for a hero to save the day. No stupid tropes. No OP Powers that can call forth doom to anyone. Spiko has Plot Armor as thick as any MC that you can't really kill off for good. But no Demon Lord will trip over a pebble, onto a peel of any fruit of choice and then die in a comedic way. When she needs saving. She's a tough cookie, which will find ways to get out of trouble (or into it). -Yes, the picture shows Spiko in her true glory. Before a lot of other stuff happened to her. And yes, Spiko is a weird Name for a cat. I'm weird. -Thoughts of Spiko are in Cursive = Why is that flower blue? -Descriptions and passive observational stuff that is coming from 3rd person view is in normal = There stood a blue flower, as Spiko shifted her wary gaze. -Distinct sounds are in bold = Swish (goes the cat paw on that blue flower!) -Talking is as always in "Hey, stop that!" -System stuff will be in tables = [Stat gain Stuff and so on] -There will be light GameLit stuff. I won't overdo it and if i do anything GameLit, it will have a reason and explanation. Do excuse the table formatting. I'm not great with word processor programs. -I'm crazy. Updates: Saturdays + whenever I feel like it (atm about 2~4 chapters a weekend + maybe weekdays. I guess?).
