  1. Ah, marriage without the benefits of sex. Such a lovely thing
  2. You might be surprised. Galen's still a little miffed about the bed situation. Maybe he just needs to give this new stoned Reinard a chance.
  3. For an adult he sure does act rather immature.
  4. Here's a non spoiler hint. Egarans are heavily influenced by ancient Greece, and the names of their animals are very Grecian in nature.
  5. Even tigers have preferences. It's all about finding what he needs. There's a reason newbies are paired with Iason; he's good at sniffing out what they like.
  6. Huh... so I actually CAN write a loving mother figure... Good to know
  7. Reinard and Themis definitely have history. She's a kind soul, and is certainly not one to let someone suffer. Even if that means being a little hard sometimes. Cuddling is the best. I feel like everyone will be doing it in the future
  8. It's always a good idea to learn about new cultures. Just try not to fall back on stereotypes as you do.
  9. Galen is definitely an interesting character. He's a tiger out of water, knowing what's expected but not quite how to do it. That said, I would like to squash any thought of exploitation right here and now. I know it's a bit spoilery, but that's not what the Egaro are about at all.
  10. Eh, what can you do when the person you're trying to help is a Class A brat?
  11. *Sigh* I... really need to work on that whole predictability thing...
  12. Au contraire. While Themis is not very knowledgeable about Faro, everyone knows the last place you'd look for one is in a brothel

    This story is set in the early 1100s on Astara, which is analogous with the late 1890's to early 1900's on Earth. The Neko Rebellion could be seen as a fusion of the Russo-Japanese war of 1905 and the First World War, with aspects of the Second Boer War.
  14. New Year’s Day, the first of Abadius, brought with it freezing winter storms, and a partially frozen lake. Regongar and Valerie strained at a pair of oars in the dark, their breath billowing out of their mouths as they worked through bits of ice and water. Ten minutes of rowing became twenty as the sky lightened around them, the new year offering a dreary greeting to the settlers of the once Stolen Lands. Lights darted around the dark ruins on the island they were aimed at, easily recogniza
  15. The elf opened the door into darkness, the bright light outside not penetrating the thick shadows within the orphanage. Even his elven eyes couldn’t see the interior of the building, and Amnor Sen didn’t dare step inside. “Hello?” “Gods bless it Krem, I said enough! Now turn the lights back on!” “No!” Amnor Sen grimaced, wishing more than ever that he had learned to cast spells. “Krem?” he called, gasping as the drow appeared in front of him. The half human’s eyes s

    PRIVATE ELLIOT, 1ST REGIMENT OF THE ARMY OF SARELIN The elf moved through the trench quickly, trying to stay on the duckboards that kept the base of the trench somewhat dry. He could see the end of the trenchline in the distance, the eastern flank of the elven forces. The straining tune of a set of pipes entered his ears as Elliot neared the edge of the trench, a slow drumbeat giving a steady beat for the elves cutting into the walls of the trench with pick and shovel. “Where ar
  17. I like my stories to be little puzzles, fitting lore into places as I build my universe. I'm not even going to get started on Golaski's real identity...
  18. One does not simply help a werewolf prince and not become legend. ❤️ Artemis is not descended from Elias' Artemis, though he does share a lot of characteristics with a certain tiger from Egaran Stars, which is set about 150-200 years before this story.

    Moving Forward

    Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Aaron's already botched the first part; the least he can do is follow the second.
  20. I won't be held responsible to your readers if you keel over though, fair warning 😛
  21. Oh boy, popcorn AND ice cream? Are you sure this story is good for your health?

    The Neko Curse

    It was hard on all of them. No one wanted that choice to be made.

    The Scout

    One thing's for sure, this all is going to be rather chaotic.

    Day One

    When the master's away, the lizard will play. Let's hope Itumak hasn't been keeping any weapons laying around. Or long sausages. I've heard those are a choking hazard.

    It's not very nice to push your characters without a chance for them to rest. I would never do that to my lovely characters. *Slides LDJ under the rug* Never, I tell ya.
