Comment "hannnnn" if you a baddie reading.
"You remember this from art history?" Amber asked with a smile as they walked through an art gallery.
She had stopped at every painting and dissected it in every way possible, it was safe to say that she was really enjoying herself.
Knowledge nodded as he silently walked behind her.
He knew art was something she was into, so he decided to make a little date out of it for her. He wasn't really feeling it.
"I hated that fuckin' class." He finally said as they walked into another section.
Amber laughed and continued to look around.
"Nigga still got a five on the exam.." she mumbled while she studied a drawing.
He chuckled and grabbed onto her waist from behind.
This slightly caught Amber off guard since she had only been this close with him once before. This was all still new to her.
"I like this one." He spoke as he actually took the time to look at it with her.
"Me too." She said, finally leaning into him.

"Thank you for taking me." Amber said for a third time with the same wide smile once.
The two were sitting in the car, planning their day.
"Fasho. What you tryna eat?"
She watched as he backed out and shrugged.
"I'm really not hungry." She told him.
He felt his mood sour a little.
"Amber yeen eat all day, don't start that shit wimme." Knowledge said glancing at the side of her face as she looked forward.
She pressed her thumbnail against her tooth before she spoke.
yall know kheumani? ok yea just like her.
"We could just do Chipotle."
"Order it on the app for me, ion feel like going in to wait." He said, then tossed his phone into her lap.

She nodded and began to place their orders.
Fifteen minutes later, he had pulled into the parking lot and parked.
Just like Knowledge had said, there was a good amount of people standing on the line to order their food.
The two sat on their phones until Knowledge leaned up after his phone notification went off.
She watched as he got out of the car and went inside to get their food.
Once he got into the car, he took their bowls and drinks out to sort through.
"Thanks." She mumbled, then she began to eat.
He nodded and did the same.
The car was silent except the occasional noise from them moving around.
Amber scrolled on Tiktok while she shoveled food into her mouth and Knowledge just focused on eating.

"You can stop that quiet shit." Knowledge said as they rode in silence.
Amber glanced over at him then back at the road.
"Why you be doing that?" He spoke again.
"Doing what?"
"That 'I'm not hungry' shit. You been wit me since this morning and it's goin' on five. How you not tryna eat?"
Amber shrugged, Knowledge always found a way to ask her those questions and she found herself answering them.
"I'm just not hungry Knowledge."
He sighed "But you is Amber, yo ass be tearing up the food once you finally do eat."
Amber was growing irritated with him and the questions.
She felt him getting closer to the truth.
She sat silent for a moment before she spoke again.
"Knowledge, I don't really want to discuss it anymore."
He sighed in realization, he might've been overstepping.
"My bad." He apologized as he glanced over at her. "You have anything else you wanna do?"
Amber shook her head "I just wanna chill at your house."

Knowledge smirked "You wanna chill wit me."
She rolled her eyes then continued to watch the road in front of her.
"I liked the lil fit you had on today." He continued staring at the ceiling, as Amber made her way into the bed.
"Really? I don't be wearing bright colors like that. It was something different for me."
"Yea I fucked wit it, you looked good as fuck." He nodded, semi licking his lips.
Amber just sat there with a silly smile on her face.

Knowledge." Amber laughed as she tried to get his attention.
"Nah leave me alone," He said mugging her as they walked into his living room.
She laughed some more and tackled him onto the ground.
"You really mad?" She asked, attempting to pull him into a hug.
"You ate the rest of my food.."
Amber tried to shoot him a smile but he just stared at her.
"I'm sorry, it was really good. I'll buy you some more." She told him.
He shook his head and flipped them over so that she was now sitting on his lap.
"My bad, you tryna watch sum?"
"Yea." She nodded then she reached for the remote.
"Fuck." He mumbled as she moved around on his lap.
Amber let out a laugh "My bad big dawg,"
"You so corny." He chuckled once she finally got the remote.
"Lemme just hop off here." She laughed as she got off of his lap and sat beside him.
Soon, the two settled down and decided to watch Coming To America.
"You literally gotta baby face." Amber spoke as Knowledge rested his head on her lap.
"Bruh are you gon watch the movie? Or do I need to turn it off?"
They were fifteen minutes into the movie, and Amber hadn't shut up.
"Honestly.. I'm not watching this shit." She said with a laugh.
"I really had fun today Knowledge." She spoke again.
Knowledge gave her a tired smile, as he was dozing off "I'm glad baby."
She eyed him, but decided to ignore it.
When she opened her mouth to speak again, she noticed he had fallen asleep.

Birth of Mana
Residents of the world today only know of the sky as a sheet of pure darkness. Alz is an elf who was separated from his parents at birth due to the village’s tradition. One day, Alz stumbles upon a relic from the past, learning about the world which once existed, where lights illuminated the skies.

Discover the world with Alz as he sets off on an adventure, experiencing many new encounters, and overcoming obstacles along the way as he slowly delved deeper into the truths behind the world. --- IMPORTANT NOTE: This story is not fantasy-themed and not I didn't omit the fantasy tag by mistake. That said, there is meaning and significance to the title, except that it will be unveiled only much later into the story. Magical elements and the like will not be a factor in most of the story until the very end. tl;dr: This is not fantasy, magic doesn't play a role in the story. --- Updates: Will try to post a chapter once every 2 days PS. This is my first novel so there might be several issues in various aspects which I might not notice so comments are highly appreciated. --- This is more to add pressure to myself rather than anything else... but anyways the story is now part of the pledge!

Jeremy Finds A Dragon
Jeremy, a teenage boy with a freakish talent for the clarinet, is less than thrilled when his mom announces that they’re up and moving to a tiny village on a tiny Scottish island the summer before his senior year of high school. But Dunsegall turns out to be an okay sort of place, if you like cliffs, sheep, and small-batch ice cream made by a family obsessed with Ray Charles. Two teenage locals — Colin and Aggie — quickly pull Jeremy under their wing and decide to give him a summer he’ll never forget. Everything is mostly fine until one day, in the depths of the woods, they stumble across a two hundred year-old monk and a living, breathing — or, rather, snoring — dragon who need their help. Together, Jer, Col, and Aggie delve into the hidden history of the island, getting up to their elbows in heresy, Highland Games, and, somehow, romance.

Stories Of Indlu
“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
