Lady Bluefooted’s Society Papers Vol.1
It has come to the attention of this Mrs. Bluefooted that the Queen has selected a few new creatures from this current crop of femme fatales to be her standard bearers. One such mouse, Miss Freya Uki, is the youngest daughter of Uki. She was seen receiving the queen's blessing and dancing with a certain rabbit rake, a favorite of the court, among others. Many previous favored birds were unable to capture the queens favor this year causing a stir among the senior officer corps.
Will Miss Uki be the one to finally win his heart, or will he once again leave the season as the most eligible bachelor for the third year running?
One could only hope that newly promoted Captain Andrew Bell will finally settle down after his long tour as the leader of the scouts. After all, if anyone should be able to find their match, who better than a scout.
This Mouse could be the carrot of his eye, but Lady Bluefooted’s sources have indicated another rabbit, Miss Holly Bun, recently seen on a promenade with the good Captain. Miss Bun and Captain Bell would make a power couple between his holdings and whatever portion of the family estate she receives as dowry. Truly the two rabbits have something in the cards for us. After his truly meritorious service, any rabbit he picks must be exceptional.
Lieutenant Muk Chin-Hwa, coalition quartermaster, and Mr. Da Seung the idle boot baron have both been seen with chaperones in the presence of Miss Uki. This Lady has been told that the two were rivals during their academy days and that now they may have become rivals again. Inquiries into the aftermath of their time with Miss Uki have yielded frustratingly little results, once again the tip mail is open.

Madame Leng, modiste fantastique, longtime widow, and favorite of the court has been seen dancing with her dance partner of many years, Mister Francis Seafoam. Perhaps the occasion will finally give cause to the good Mister Seafoam to finally complete his years-long sewing project, otherwise, it may be time for him to give up his needles. If he cannot stitch himself to her after this long, then perhaps that is the right course of action.
Madame Oceanrunner, the underdog in this year's food contest for the three blast furnaces was recently seen at the annual food contest, giving out life advice to the vendors. This Lady believes that perhaps the mouse herself should bake some more sweet rolls before she calls a scone a scon. She inherited the blastfurnace and was able to keep it through this years contest.
Additionally, with the few foxes seeming to pair off into dating pairs during the first dance of the season, this year's hot item seems to be Lord Henry Richards, the irascible sword designer, and manufacturer. His thin rapiers are the talk of the fencing nobility and I’ve heard that they look as good as they perform in battle. He has been spotted more than once with Lady Abigail Smith, the newest fox debutante, and the Lady Bluefooted has put her eye on this couple as a possible match by the end of the season.
Finally, Lady Bluefooted would like to note that the Cobbler brothers are still both single and at large and that perhaps after this season, if no suitable match is found, they should aim a little lower. The Poor Lady Cobbler would do well to remind her sons that gaudy ties are not the way to a woman’s heart. Perhaps, they should take a lady to see some theatre, while it is in season.
Now to speak about the various bird and mole matches [article continues on the next page]

The Last Orellen (An Epic Progression Fantasy)
According to prophecy, the ninth-born child of Lord Orellen will have the sort of power that changes the world. But in a land ruled by mage families, no one welcomes the possibility of a dangerous new player. Fearful even of their allies, the Orellens come up with an extraordinary and deadly scheme to protect themselves. If the most powerful sorcerers in the world wish to kill the ninth-born, they will have to find him or her first. And that's not going to be easy when the Orellens have called upon dark magic to create hundreds of heirs. The boys and girls are given new bodies, new names, and even new magical talents before they are scattered across the continent. Only one among them is the real ninth, but all of them will have to grow up in a world where they are fugitives. Kalen, once fated to die, is now an Orellen heir in hiding. And he is determined to survive, even if he has to master his strange new powers to do it. The Last Orellen is a long, character-focused progression fantasy set in a vast universe about a boy's journey to become a powerful mage. Reviews are deeply appreciated. Please do not repost my work elsewhere without my written permission. What type of reader is this book for? You might enjoy The Last Orellen if you like... Clever and resourceful protagonists. Big fantasy worlds. Multiple cultures, lots of characters, many different types of magic--this story is expansive rather than closely focused on a narrow storyline. Progression fantasy that takes its time. Our main character will be progressing through magical ranks, but this is going to be a lengthy story. If you're more about the journey than the destination, this might be the book for you. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Peerless Hegemon
Warning: Can be quite tearjerking and depressing (or so others say). If you are weak to that and hates that kind of thing, then this story is not for you === Ye Feng lived two lives in one lifetime. First, he basked in the light of Righteousness, becoming an idol of peace and justice. Second, he trod the mired path of the Darkest Path, becoming an object of fear and death. One lifetime, Two Identities, countless experiences, still without purpose. A meaningless existence. An empty husk. In his selfishness of wanting to fill the void in him, he became the catalyst that destroyed Reality. He now controlled everything, ultimate power, uncontestable by none. But he cast it away, to be reborn anew. With a new name and a family, his goal was to understand, his place. To understand how to no longer feel empty. With his family consisting of a Reincarnated Twin Sister and Parents with inscrutable pasts, his desire was not that of grandeur. In this lifetime, he wishes not to hold power, not to gain eternal life, nor control of everything, he only wishes to live, and hopefully look at sunrise with a smile on his face. === Disclaimer: The story focuses on the Main Character’s emotional and personality growth. He is someone who is, obviously OP in some perspectives but almost crippled in others. He is not soft and does not spare anyone because it is “Bad” so expect that there would be genocide and some bloody encounters. I want this instead of just the MC’s search for life and its complication. Where Philosophy and values exist. A story where every action has proper consequences, and not everything can be conquered with a single punch (unless it can be, no need for an unnecessary complication if it can be avoided). Further Notes: This is a story that will gradually increase in word counts and become Chunkier as it progresses and will almost never be below 2000 words, but if the word count will only lengthen the chapter at the expense of a finished tale, it could and would be cut off before 2000 mark), give it a try, it won’t disappoint (I hope). And if by chance that you like it, giving a good Rating and Review will be encouraging to me and possible readers. Schedule: Monday and Friday If you want to read ahead and/or support me to creating this story, you can do it through my Patreon (link below the next chapter button.)
