《THE DARK ENIGMA • TOM RIDDLE》XCIII. Grawp
Advertisement
We walk in the dimly lit forest as we hear something neigh in the distance.
We pause as a bunch of centaurs ride past us, yelling.
"I've never 'een th' centaurs 'o riled! And they're dangerous 't the best 'f times." Hagrid explains being a sigh as he looks towards us. "Th' ministry restricts their territory much more, they're 'onna have a full uprising on their 'ands."
"Hagrid, what's going on?" Hermione asks sternly as Hagrid glances at us apologetically.
"I'm sorry to be so mysterious, you three. I— I wouldn't b' bothering you 't all with it, but..." Hagrid trails off nervously. "with dumbledore gone... I'll likely be getting the sack any day now. And I just couldn't leave without telling someone about him..."
Loud footsteps them approach us as I glance over at the sound to see a giant standing up.
"Grawp?" Hagrid calls as the giant— grawp— glances around. "Down here, you great buffoon!"
The giant walks towards us as he goes to catch a bird flying over our heads, we quickly duck down as Hagrid gasps.
"Grawp! I brought you some company." Hagrid says to the giant as Grawp grins, starting to run towards us.
Grawp almost gets to us but was stopped by the rope tied around him.
"I couldn't just leave him, because... because he's my brother."
"Merlin..." i mutter as Hagrid glances down at us.
"Well, half-brother, really." Hagrid corrects himself before Grawp tries to walk towards us again. "He's completely harmless, just like I said. Little high-spirited, is all."
Hermione backs away before Grawp grabs her, lifting her into the air.
"Grawp, that is not polite!" Hagrid exclaims as the words fall deaf to the giants ears.
"Hagrid, do something!" Harry yells as Hagrid looks sternly up at the giant.

"We talked about this. You do not grab, do you? That's your new friend, Hermione." Hagrid instructs the giant pauses, looking between Hagrid and Hermione.
"Grawp!" Hermione yells as the giant looks directly at her. "Put me down. Now!"
The giant then puts her back down as the giant sighs, backing away.
"I think you've got an admirer..." Harry mutters as I nod, watching along with Harry as the giant digs through his stuff before grabbing an item.
As he turns towards us and rings the bell, I recognize it as the top of a bicycle.
"He gets his own food and all... it's company he'll be needing when I'm gone." Hagrid explains as Grawp drops down onto the floor with a smile. "You will look after him, won't you? I'm the only family he's got."
The giant repeatedly rings the bell as Harry and I nod slowly.

Travelers [DROPPED]
DROPPED. The story focuses less on dungeon building than on the why of dungeons and how they fit into the universal order. While I am working from a grand plot, the writing is going slice of life style because I need to do that to work out how things progress into that grand plot. The original story seed idea / synopsis is below. The Grand Tapestry protects Rhofhir from Primal Chaos by imposing Order via patterns. However, the patterns grow stiff, stagnant, and so the Tapestry is nearing a time of Unraveling. Evidence of past civilizations wiped out during previous Unravelings foreshadow the apocalyptic catastrophe looming over the world. The mages of the Arcane Asylum reach out across dimensions, searching for some way to prevent, or at least stall, the coming Unraveling. Among the many voices they find is a gifted graduate student researching machine-assisted telepathy -- and his gaming group. Lena never expected that the chance to play DnD with telepathy would result in her becoming an actual Dungeon Master, nor that her friends could become the bosses of her dungeon. This is, in many ways, her dream come true, but there's a catch: What happened to Brad, the creator of that telepathy machine?
8 98Titan Warriors - A Mech LitRPg
Sergeant Brandon Mc’Dew was an Airborne Ranger and a good one too. That is until he found that one mission that ended his career like so many other warriors before him. But instead of pearly gates or red flames Brandon awoke in a white room full of ugly green chairs and an image of his brain floating in a tube. The life he knew was a simulation to train rapid grown people. The universe he now finds himself in is a war torn far future where Humanity as dominated the stars. Enlisted against his better opinions he finds himself a fledgling Titan Jock in a minor noble House on a far off arm of the Milky Way. Brandon is stuck trying to survive in this new world. A world where 100 meter tall robots of war dominate the battlefield, Kings and Queens rule from thrones upon high, uncaring of the people beneath them, and expendable people can be grown in a tube to fight a war they know nothing about. ***Authors Note*** This is a MEch or MEcca based light LitRPG. There will be stat sheets, skills, and gear, however it will not be the primary focus of the story. I will be looking for a lot of reader input, so if you have any themes you would like to see in the story let me know with PMs or comments. Finally, this is a early draft so let me know if you see any errors or mistakes. Thanks. I will be releasing one chapter a week on Wednesdays.
