Week - 692 Destiny: Part One by sampleneopian

Week - 693 Destiny: Part Two by sampleneopian

Description: Most people with Talent are content to spend their lives perfecting their skills.

Week - 694 Destiny: Part Three by sampleneopian

Description: The wailing alarm made Elmist’s heart beat faster, if that was even possible. He thought his ribcage would break any time.

Week - 703 On The Revolution of Heavenly Spears: Part Four by sampleneopian

Description: …because it never stopped. The incessant clanging rang mercilessly into Ryshu’s ear. The incessant clanging rang mercilessly into Ryshu’s ears, forcing the poor Nimmo out of sleep with its painful volume. Eyes snapping open, he absent-mindedly stumbled out of bed in a zombie-like state, his head still stubbornly thick as solid rock and his body still drenched in ice-cold sweat.
