《My Writing Exercises》Wind
Advertisement
Fear the tussle, the wind chimes, foreboding tolls tell the wind the way she blows. Wake now, pack now, leave now. Chance is best left to those who dare to dance with the wind.
“Hurry now, Edmond, winds are picking up!” said Crowley.
Their journey was still far. Edmond stamped the campfire, threw away suppers waste, picked up his chime staff, and hoisted on his backpack. “I'm ready,” said Edmond the Seer.
They paced with calm urgency on the snaking road. Winds rippled through the grassy plains. Their packs jostled; the staff jingled. It was a quest to outrun the winds, to find good shelter, to tell a story for a good night's sleep. Edmond knew the way the wind blew, but not this day.
“It is strange. I did not foresee the weather to be like this!” said Edmond.
“Perhaps your age has made you senile?” said Crowley, glancing the dark clouds behind.
It was a ridiculous remark to Edmond and he waved his staff dismissively. His weather forecasts were accurate, he wouldn't be a seer at his age otherwise. An inaccurate forecast was a bad omen, a terrible thought for Edmond to ponder. He picked up his pace, eager to put away his thoughts for a warm bath and bed.
Edmond is right, of course. You know the way the wind blows, and it is because you dreamt it. Go on, then. Blow where you wish, but don't forget to record it, for dreams are nought without your pen.

Law of Shadows
Mercs are causing trouble in my city. They are hunting someone, whatever the cost. It’s not like I care that some lowly humans died, but if I don’t act now it would set a bad example. So what would the hero do? Probably he would save the victims and protect them while the enemies keep coming… Yeah, as if I would ever do something so troublesome! They aren’t calling me the demon lord for no reason. I suppose I’ll just shoot the victim and be done with it. ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: If you find mistakes, pls tell, thx. I don't like mistakes.[/window] Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. I have no problem with translation and reposting of the story, as long as the person in question isn't doing it for money or stealing my identity. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

Magitech Awakenings
In this world of Terrapia, myth states that Dragons are caretakers of the chaos wheel, a band of energy that encircles the world, penetrating through the very fabric of the dimension. They tame and convert it, not only to fuel their primal magic, but also to gentler forms that man and beast alike can tap. But now they have faded away, being sighted less and less the past couple millennia. With magic weakening, science has taken root and in many cases merged in a symbiosis with magic. Guppy Bright, a 17 year old young woman, is a technomancer apprentice living in the bustling city of Nolusburg trying to make ends meet. Apprenticed to the enigmatic and somewhat crazy Technomancer Friedrich BrassTuner, she participates in an experiment meant to tap a new rich source of energy. However something goes horribly wrong and a rip in the very fabric of reality opens in the workshop, sucking in her mentor and ejecting a dying white dragon. The dragon, after examining her, takes a gamble and entwines their souls, an act that causes the dragon, Barthurthalomalew Dresnarian Kratomanger Harrowhew Objuslorow, the 5th, aka Batty, to regress into a baby dragon, sealing much of his powers and memories in the process. This act also has profound effects on Guppy, her own magic is now crazily changed in ways no one, least of all her, understands. Guppy is suddenly plunged into a world of mystery, intrigue and politics, where everyone either wants to control, or eliminate her. Armed with little but her courage and unpredictable newfound magic how will she survive and protect herself and those she loves when everyone from techno radicals, magic purists, politicians and guttersnipes are out to get her. And those may be the least of her problems if Batty's fragmented memories are any indicator.
