    Tygo, Filiou, and Djaruki were in the middle of the body of water. They were still walking, and they could not see land in any direction. “I wonder if we’ll see any frozen sea monsters,” Filiou commented, and the shimmer on her complex eyes shifted. Djaruki did not like the sound of that. The trio did not see any sea monsters, but they eventually did spot land on the horizon ahead of them, and there was a small town. The girls had unknowingly walked on water for the equivalent

    Djaruki and the two girls did not realize that within Tygo’s bubble, they walked for thirteen days. They never grew tired or hungry, and the sun remained in the exact same place as they traveled. When they eventually caught a glimpse of a city in the distance, Tygo disengaged her powers, and the breeze started blowing. Djaruki looked up at the sun again. “That’s pretty incredible,” she said to Tygo. “I know!” Filiou agreed. “Isn’t her ability magical?” The bony claws that extended f

    The path Djaruki was following ended before the sun began to set over the western mountains. The river continued farther, but it entered a dense forest, and the tangle of trees looked unforgiving. Djaruki did not want to enter the imposing wood. As night descended upon the land, Djaruki set up her camp at the edge of the forest, and she fell asleep to the sound of the river. She awoke with the morning and caught herself a little breakfast from the powerful cold waters. Djaruki’s island up

    Before the two warrior women collected the heads of their victims, they had been in a meeting of the newly established Alliance of Shifts. The Tilthon Empire, and the city of Duguza in particular, were cruel places for Shifts. There was no secret community of Biological Shifts, most of whom were slaughtered in their youths during their transformations, and Gawa was unique among the few Alliance members who were willing to meet with her and Tisa. There were seven Shift women, three men, el

    “A delivery for who?” the guardswoman barked at Z’Matri, who had stopped speaking mid-sentence. Z’Matri turned around. “Hey!” the guard shouted, but Z’Matri ignored him. If every Shift that Z’Matri could feel was like a light to him, the entire world was suddenly cast into all-consuming darkness. He could not feel a single Shift, not even the anomalous one within the Heights. Z’Matri felt utterly alone. “Hey!!” the guard yelled again. “What’s wrong with you? Who’s the

    Z’Matri led Djaruki along a path that took them upriver and out of town to where his companions were waiting. The waters were not quite as foul as down in the city, and Z’Matri had set up a base of operations with the two women he had mentioned, on a houseboat that was anchored at a bend in the river out of its stronger flow. The women noticed Z’Matri coming up the trail, and they rose from where they were seated at a table with several books spread out on it. “Tisa, Gawa, this is Djaruki

    A contingent of alchemist leadership of Demifae was assembled to receive the report from their assault team. None of their soldiers had returned, and a scout had been sent out to try and figure out what happened. “What do you mean?” one of the commanders growled. “Sir, I’m sorry, sir,” the scout replied in a shaky voice. “The attack was a total failure, sir. All your men are dead.” “All of them?” “Sir, there were drag queens cleaning up…” the scout hesitated as his guts

    On the island of Philletri off the coast of the nation of Phanisia, a young woman was thinking about the giant, Ogomo. The woman’s name was Djaruki. She had seen Ogomo when his gargantuan ship was docked at Philletri. Djaruki had been born and lived her whole life on the island, and she wished she could have left with the giant. She was secretly one of the others, and she knew the moment she saw him that Ogomo was one as well. Djaruki’s entire life, she had seen what the Phanisians did to

    Auntie Peg came running up to Dotty Marbles, who was standing at the front doors to the Shifton Youth Outreach Center. She was staring at the chunks of indistinguishable body parts and shards of bone, which glistened in the light of the rising moon. Dotty Marbles looked like she was about to vomit. The two attackers, who had made the error of entering the center, were now twisted and mangled corpses at the bottom of the front steps, and Auntie Peg stepped over them as Dotty Marbles asked

    While Auntie Peg and Dotty Marbles were settling the younger kids of the Shifton Youth Outreach Center down for bed, Ninyani was in the kitchen making himself a cup of tea. He scooped a little dried plant matter into a mesh filter basket, placed it in a mug, and filled the mug with cold water. Ninyani reached into the unlimited well of energy at his control, and he focused the thermodynamics of the universe through his hands and into the mug. The water began to steam just as Dotty Marbles popped

    thank you all so freaking much for reading this book! It was quite a bit longer than book 1, and book 3 is in the works! If you're also into dark fantasy/horror, please check out my other series which is also available on GayAuthors!

    Vast scorching deserts stretched for miles in all directions, and two teenage girls were in the middle of it. The Infinite Waste was not comprised merely of sand, and instead, the desert was made of parched soil that allowed sparse and thorny vegetation to grow. Strange cacti protruded from the rocky landscape, and only the most rugged animals made that desolate place their home. The two girls had managed to survive in the wasteland for over three weeks. Their names were Tygo and Filiou. They we

    Dozi was on the roof of her new home. She was staring out at the darkening horizon where the ocean stretched beyond the waters of Teshon Harbor. She was looking for Ilya. For the past six evenings, as the sun set over the mountains behind her, Dozi gazed out to sea. A week had passed since she moved from her hidden basement home. The secret underground space where Dozi lived in the Spritehood had been perfect. It served her well and made it possible for her to take in quite a few other di

    Three new characters make their way in the wide world. A group of Shifts from Teshon City orchestrates a rebellion in a far-off country. Teshon City must face a rogue Demifae who desires to return city life to the days when Shifts were hunted in the streets. A powerful witch is consulted, and her sorcery increases the power of her fellow alchemist. The rebellion does not turn out the way the Shifts from Teshon City are expecting, and things back in Teshon City end up even worse. Also, a little more about the unknown past is revealed in a prequel chapter, featuring two real-life horror celebrities who permitted their on-page deaths!

    The starship Deathian was floating in the void. Several repair shuttles were on their way to assist with the ruined controls of the ship’s cavitation engine. It was the only major damage done by the squad who had infiltrated the destroyer’s defenses and broke out the prisoners. The medical laboratory was still fully functional. On one of the operating tables, a body was undergoing aberrant procedures meant to keep it alive, but to strip it of everything that made it an individual. In an ir

    “The Ulaa-Lah?” Lyoth, Phentrom, and Captain Suoki exclaimed in unison. The five travelers became silent as the choppy message continued, punctuated by the buzz and hum of the poor connection. “…stranded and… systems… failed… cavitation engine… messages except… and primitive galaxy which… inhabitants do not… our communica… don’t even know… or if…” The message ended. Lyoth turned to Fonith. “Did the Cometskipper record that?” “Yes,” Fonith confirmed, “and she’s alr

    Fonith and Lyoth were discussing the Cometskipper. Phentrom, Stawren, and Captain Suoki were with them. Ilial and his scientific team were in their lab beginning the construction of the scanning computer. “Why don’t we just have them install it in my ship?” Fonith recommended. “But that’ll require us to use the Cometskipper in the search for the Ulaa-Lah,” Lyoth replied. “I don’t want you to be held to that obligation, and I have no idea how long it’s going to take us to find the s

    I hope the next few chapters are satisfactory! (I'm a little curiou to see how everyone is going to react to them)

    With the required amount of godstroll blood collected, Fonith punched in the secret destination for the Aergoroth Nebula, and her starship entered hyperspace. Stawren was asleep. The walk from the inn back to the Cometskipper made her leg throb again, and she had lain down before Fonith initiated takeoff. Lyoth and Phentrom were talking together in the ship’s kitchen, both telling the other everything they had each been through. Captain Suoki was on the bridge with Fonith.

    It was night. Fonith was armed with her long-range precision blaster, and she was positioned on the roof of a four-story building with a view of the godstrolls’ nest. Lyoth was on the ground below her. His standard sword was in his hand, and the unworldly black blade was in its sheath and strapped to his back. He approached the building where the trio of monsters had built their lair. Through the scope of Fonith’s rifle, she could see the three godstrolls, but one of them was m

    Lyoth, Phentrom, Stawren, and Captain Suoki were all aboard the Cometskipper again. Stawren was seated, and a pair of crutches was leaning against the wall beside her. Captain Suoki’s pug, Froufrou, was in Boullia Bay with little Riah and her parents, Finnow and Quigley. “We’re three minutes out from the location Neptithia gave us,” Fonith informed the others. “Wish I could help you, Lyoth,” Stawren commented with a little disappointment in her voice, as the ship landed. He sm

    Lyoth, Stawren, Phentrom, and Captain Suoki were forced at gunpoint into the airlock of the police command ship. The officers did not listen to anything they had to say. One of the men kept his blaster honed on the four prisoners as the others stepped behind the airlock’s control panel. “They’re going to jettison us,” Lyoth stated flatly. “They’re going to close the inner door, open the outer door, and just watch us float away as frozen husks.” The airlock’s interior door began to s
