《Who Fixes Books Anyway?》Canto VIII-IX
Advertisement
The platform came to stop some way up the hill. The creatures around them continued upwards and out of sight, obscured by a thick fog. The group was presented with a door much like the last one, this time though, it was open and lacked any sort of puzzle that may have previously opened it. The party was particularly careful around the door for fear that it may fall off its hinges like the last. The tunnel they found themselves in opened into yet another vast plain of grass despite the fact that they should be underground. They knew better than to pursue why or how though.
The stone path from before continued and now ran alongside a river. Its silent waters were white with foam as rapids churned its contents. The Traveler turned to Little Man and asked him something.
“I’ve never fished in rapids before,” he answered, “But fishing tends to be fairly good at their bottom.”
Little man continued to explain the nuances of river fishing as they walked along the river. Soon, the river backed right and followed a short stone wall that spanned either direction off into the horizon. Unlike the river, the path paid no heed to the wall and carved an opening through it. A small sign had been affixed to one side of the wall's gap. According to N-3, it was once again in Italian and translated to the single word, "apart."

Mother of Learning
Zorian is a teenage mage of humble birth and slightly above-average skill, attending his third year of education at Cyoria's magical academy. He is a driven and irritable young man, consumed by a desire to ensure his own future and free himself of the influence of his family, whom he resents for favoring his brothers over him. Consequently, he has no time for pointless distractions or paying attention to other people's problems. As it happens, time is something he is about to get plenty of. On the eve of the Cyoria's annual summer festival, he is killed and brought back to the beginning of the month, just before he was about to take a train to Cyoria. Suddenly trapped in a time loop with no clear end or exit, Zorian will have to look both within and without to unravel the mystery before him. And he does have to unravel it, for the time loop hadn't been made for his sake and dangers lurk everywhere... Repetition is the mother of learning, but Zorian will have to first make sure he survives to try again - in a world of magic, even a time traveler isn't safe from those who wish him ill. ********************************** If anyone is interested, I have a story-related worldbuilding site that can be found here. I don't update it as often as I should, but there is a fair amount of content there already. It also contains a page with all the fanart, fan translations, audio books and the like - you can reach it directly by clicking this link. I have a patreon account for those kind people that want to give me money. It also contains info for those who want to donate via paypal. The story was originally posted on fictionpress, back in 2011. When I reached chapter 91, I started uploading the story to RoyalRoad, one chapter per day. The story will continue to be updated on fictionpress as well as here, and can be reached by clicking on this link if somebody is interested, though at this point there is nothing there that isn't also on RoyalRoad. ********************************** The cover you see on the side has been made by a fellow RoyalRoad user Sydorow. Thank you for your time and art skills.
