Gema was stalking the wolf that kills the rabbit she was about to kill. Figuring she will get revenge on it and its fur. The wolf race down an animal trail along the Granite Creek to the north. Gema stopped six times to harvest several herbs that pop up only one was a failure. Finding a large patch of watermelon full of melon force her to stop.
Many melons she thought, glancing briefly at the trail. Groaning she started picking the melons. Taking a full hour filling up six bags with the small melons leaning a good many more. Jumping and pulling out the sword that Jack gave her she glance down the trail hearing a noise of fighting. Leaving the bags behind she sneaks her way forward until the sound of fighting was just ahead in a ravine.
Peering around a bush and some boulders. Seeing several dead wolves laying on the ground. Seeing a young troll was slamming a large limb into the side of the Alpha male killing it. She watches as ten wolves pile onto the troll tearing into it. Sensing movement from the right she sees a wolf with a rabbit on the ground. Growling at the troll standing in front of an opening in the wall of the ravine. Seeing some movement inside of wolves pups moving around in the darkness of the den.
Looking back to the way she came turning as she hears a whimper. Seeing the mother glancing at her as two more wolves go flying into the brush. Looking at the troll bleeding from tearing as it moves slower and at a wolf pup moving up next to its mother. She steels herself and takes a running leap. Screaming bloody murder or terror depending on who you would talk to. The troll froze for a second as a wolf grabs his throat. The troll stagger to the left as the mother rush forward to bite at the right legs.

Holding on for dear life to the hilt of the sword as her legs go flying left and right making her get sick. Finally, the troll stops just as Gema vomit all over it back. The beast gave out another scream and a wolf clamp down upon his thing under the loin clothe ripping it off. Even with all the troll regenerative ability. It fell to its knee holding the nether region as green blood pour out down the side of its thighs. Holding on with her left hand she pulls out her stone dagger and slams it deep into it right ear. Twisting it as more of the wolves tear into him. Gema feels the troll fall forward with her on it back as she a prompt appear.

The Eternal Seeker Saga
In a universe where Earth is nothing but a distant memory, and humanity is clawing its way back from a million years long interstellar dark age, Sarah Ciel-étoilé is but a humble mercenary. For 60 years, her crew of exiles has followed her onboard their stolen military gunship, the Eternal Seeker. But now, a threat like they have never seen before is rising. The Dominion, an intergalactic empire over a millenia old, is dying. Its catastrophic civil war almost brought it to total collapse, and it endures only through the strength of its navy. But that strength is waning. Throughout the Dominion's Protectorate, whispers of a revolution are spreading, and insurrections are flaring up, as a conspiracy set on casting down the Dominion and burning it to the ground set its plan into motion. Yet, behind all the chaos and the destruction, something far more sinister brews in the shadows, and it could change the face of the universe forever. This is the story of Sarah, and her mercenaries, during these troubled and dark times, as empires fall...and others rise. ----- Chapters will be posted every sunday, mostly at 23h30 CET (22h30 UTC), although I will probably experiment with different release times.

Nowhere to Run
Nina is a young priestess that just started her journeys in the Highlands, in a faraway land. But everything falls apart when greater forces are scheming and unknown men are suddenly after her. She will have no choice but to resort to her wits, make unexpected allies, and navigate her way through unforgiving lands in order to survive. Will she be up to the task? Greetings, reader! First of all, thank you for taking an interest and read my story. This is a story I've been working through all my life. But since I'm a first-time writer, I wanted to start with something small. This is just a small part of something much greater that hopefully one day I'll be able to translate into words as well. I will try to make it interesting as possible but please bear with me. Please understand that English is not my native language, I worked really hard to write in English the best I could. So please if you find any typos and grammar errors let me know. I'll try to upload new chapters as soon as I can. Although I had originally planned to deliver a chapter a MONTH, I think the real estimate would be a chapter EVERY 3 MONTHS since I also have to earn the daily bread. Cover picture made by me. The background picture is from Google but I modified it enough from the original. The story is also available on Wattpad, Inkitt, Scribblehub, and Webnovel.

Bleached Nightmare
500 years into the future, technological progress has stagnated. Wracked by a series of problems like climate change, lack of resources and the innate human lust for war, the geopolitical landscape of planet Earth is radically different, and quality of life is far from what it was in the past. While technical development and research into realistically feasible space travel has made leaps and bounds, this has come at the cost of a world that is reeling from centuries of technical stagnation in other aspects of life. The establishment of a mining colony on Mars has led to the discovery of a new, rare material called sarinium; though it is extremely tensile and durable, it has a very low melting point. The discovery of this metal leads to large mechanical infantry- dubbed 'Spirit Striders', they are six to ten meters tall and as famed for the pride they provide a nation as they are a lethally mobile heavy weapons platform. The story follows the character of Marilin, who must both figure the enigma that is her past, and what this means for her allegiances in the future. Despite her genetically physical frailty, she seeks to gain power through a vessel that will channel her wish to change the world- the Spirit Strider. --- I hope you all enjoy my work. This is a story that I began writing over four years ago in my beginning years of high school, and have cast aside unfinished in the past two years. Though it is not up to my current standards, I hope you all may find some enjoyment in it. Happy reading.
