《Fragile Minds ━━ C. DANVERS ✓》eighteen.

She felt as if she was still very repetitious with her thoughts about Carol Danvers, and she wondered if there were things that needed to be done. She wondered if it was concerning how much she thought about the woman that she had been so focused on since she had left, but it had been years since the woman had left. Poppy knew that she had been affected by the cosmic woman and that she would've done whatever it was that she could in order to be with the woman that had gone off to help the Skrulls from the Kree, but she wished that she would've been able to help her with anything that it was that she could.
Poppy found herself lying in bed as she stared up at the ceiling above her before a heavy sigh left her lips and she glanced over toward her desk in the room. The woman threw the covers off of her chest and she made her way over toward the desk and she stared down at the top drawer and she pulled out the device that the woman had crafted for her,s something that Carol had given to her to use in order for the two of them to use if they wanted to talk. Poppy clenched her jaw as she stared down at the device, and she knew that it would only work every so often, and for only so long.
But she had to try to use it, she just had to try.
A heavy sigh left her lips as she grabbed onto the device and she made her way out onto the balcony that connected to her bedroom and she sat outside as she held onto the device. Poppy stared down at the screen for a few seconds as she pressed the button for a few seconds before she listened as it began to go off in attempts to connect with Carol as she sat out on her balcony. Of course, she didn't know what time it was for the woman on the planet that she was on, and she hoped that the woman was awake and that she wasn't waking her up.

And just when she thought that the woman wasn't going to answer, the connection was made and Carol's face appeared.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I was wondering when I was going to get a call from you," Carol spoke as she stared at the other woman through the projection, and Poppy gave her a smile. The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds, and Poppy's smile grew as she stared at her, and Carol shook her head. "What's up? How's everything going on Earth?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Everything's going well . . . Nick is the man in charge and he's still doing a very good job at telling everyone what to do and I'm taking good care of Goose," Poppy replied to her, and that brought a large smile to Carol's lips as she stared at the woman. The two of them continued to stare at each other for a few seconds before Poppy let out a sigh. "How is everything with the Skrulls?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A heavy sigh left her lips as she stared at the woman in front of her, "It's been difficult, but I think that I've been making progress with it all. The Kree aren't standing down from being the horrible people that they are, but I think that I'm going to be able to find a home for them," Poppy nodded her head as she stared at the blonde-haired woman, before she tilted her head to the side. "What time is it there for you? it has to be late."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Poppy glanced over her shoulder to the alarm clock on her nightstand and she let out a sigh, "Around three o'clock," she answered and Carol pressed her lips together as she stared at her and Poppy shrugged her shoulders as she stared at her for a few seconds. "I know, I know, I should be asleep, but I couldn't. I do wish that we would be able to talk more often."

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I do, too," Carol replied to her as she gave her a small smile before Carol snapped her head over her shoulder to answer someone that had entered the room. Poppy could tell that there was something that was bothering Carol, but the blonde let out a heavy sigh as she glanced back over to the other woman. "I have to go, there's something that I have to fix, but I promise I'll figure out a way that the two of us can find a better way to talk . . . and hopefully, find a way to meet up again. I'd love to talk face to face again."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I would, too,"
Poppy sat on her balcony for a few seconds as she stared down at the device and she pressed her lips together for a few seconds before she tilted her head against the wall. Her eyes glanced up to the sky and she stared up at the moon for a few seconds and wondered where it was in the universe that Carol Danvers was. She wanted to know where it was that she was and how it was that the two of them would've been able to see each other again.
But she knew that their lives were so much more different than they had been when they had first met. They were no longer the pilots they were when they were in the air force and they were now living lives, that neither of them would've ever thought that they would ever be living now. Poppy just wished that she would've been able to say some things to Carol before the woman had left to help the Skrulls.
Though that was just the way things were, and she was going to have to wait and see how they were going to pull through all of the complications of their relationship.

8 167Iruedim (Children of the Volanter)
Iruedim, an extragalactic planet positioned beside a wormhole, was a place where science, spellcasters, and creatures of the night thrived, mostly in peace. Then, something terrible came through its wormhole and set the world back thousands of years. On the plus side, there’s lots of work for anthropologists. On the down side, the wormhole has been quiet since the last incident. When a strange artifact seems to come through the wormhole, Camellia Zaris can’t understand why no one will investigate. Considering her imperiled career, she has nothing to lose and takes it upon herself to search for the answers.

8 142Magic Empireum: Blood Coin
After a prolonged war between the militarized state of Nauler and the great Kingdom of Altarcia, mediation from the Vindean Empire finally bears fruit. To prevent mass starvation in the eastern Kingdom, Vindeans lifts its customs on the border and funds every merchant willing to supply Altarcians with food and other basic necessities. This opportunity will open a way for quick-witted traders to build their fortunes on common folk ill fate! Where the sword can't reach, the spy will deal a fatal hit. Never in modern history has the world seen such a ridiculous situation, where two enemies can control each other with their intelligence network while failing to govern their own lands for the same reason. Every event taking place has at least three sides looking for their faction profit. As the western continent falls deeper and deeper into a quagmire of schemes and infighting, beyond the great continental wall a mass of barbarians is venturing north in search for a better way to invade these damn knights. Unbeknownst to them, an army trained in the blaze of endless conflict sets forth to foil their plans. If only the eastern frontline didn't require over a million man strong force to be maintained! When everyone is aiming at everyone's throat, great schemes are changing the power balance between the powerhouses, one can only look to improve his own situation. When rulers are sending fathers and sons to battles, daughters and mothers whore themselves to afford another handful of wheat. Only the strong can prevail? All of them either died in the past battles or are enjoying the benefits of the jungle law. In this harsh reality, to win means to survive. To survive means to end other people's lives. To live means to exploit others. How can one reach for greatness, when this world is nothing but a toy in the hands of so-called 'God'?
8 608Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
