Chapter 25
When I open the door I see a rather empty room with nothing but a fire place on one wall, a couch that look like it had been recently moved to face the door, and an incubus reading on said couch.
“Hey uncle” jack
“About damn time you got out of there” uncle
“I had to make it a little more interesting, so where is everyone else?” jack
“Their all dead asleep, it’s the middle of the night” uncle
“The guys that attacked us were your golem’s right?” jack
“Who else could get a hold of that poison? Char literally begged me to make some last night, just for you” uncle
Char, or rather charlotte, is my aunt’s first name.
“So how’d the experiment go, I heard you finished it the day this all happened” jack
“Oh, that’s right. I said I would tell you about it when I finished it.” Uncle
“All I know is that it had something to do with our neighbors, the guy with the wife and three kids” jack
“You know how incubi and succubi specialize in dream magic right?” uncle
“Yes, of course I know. I’ve had some experience with it myself.” Jack
“Well, I would send a dream to the man every night.” Uncle
“What type of dream?” jack
“One where he kills his wife and his oldest two kids only to be killed by his youngest.” Uncle
“So what happened?” jack
“Well every night I would make the people look slightly less human every night.” Uncle
“Interesting” jack
“Then the day the system came online he woke up and killed his family with a baseball that he was planning on giving to his son for his birthday, the same way I had him kill his family in the dream.” Uncle (if you get this reference you are the most amazing person in the entire world, and ghost will visit you in your dreams tonight)

“With the way you did that of course it would turn out that way, well I should probably get too bed” jack
“Oh come on, keep an old man company” uncle
“You still look to be in your late 20s early 30s” jack
“I’m 212 already, my wife is almost half my age” uncle
“Well aunty is 85 this year” jack
“Why don’t you tell me about your resent adventure, It sounded pretty exciting, especially in the bedroom” uncle
“What else would I expect to hear from an incubus” jack
At that he just smiles.
“Well, it’s not like I need sleep anyway.” Jack
And so I spend the night recounting my adventure, with uncle begging for more details about certain parts, and listening to uncle’s trip to their dungeon. It turns out that there was only one type creature in it, trolls, which are really irritating due to their insane regeneration. He ended up making a poison out of their blood and some magic to counter their regeneration. All in all it took about 8 hours for them to complete it.
“So I saw Johanna became a sprite” uncle
“Yeah, so” jack
“Theirs no way you didn’t have fun with that” uncle
Oh yeah, uncle is a closet pervert.

End's End
Crow Tempora is an optimistic country bumpkin who knows very little of life in the heart of the world's cities, however behind his easy smile is a stony determination to achieve his goal of accomplishing the impossible- one that he can only reach by winning the Sieve, the largest competition of young Mystics the world has ever seen. Famous across the entire world and loved almost as widely, Gemini Menza has never known a single day of anonymity in her short life. Like most magical prodigies she has spent her years on guard against powerful Immortals attempting to use her as a tool, unlike most she is uniquely gifted and burdened with the position of being the single most magically prodigious individual of her generation- perhaps throughout all of history. Entering the Sieve not to work for victory, but to collect it as a boring chore, she soon finds herself shocked by the difficulty of her tasks, both inside the contest and out. After all, she was also given the privilege of joining at a younger age than anyone else. Machiavellian manipulator Unity Eden is growing tired of the tasks forced onto him by those who control him, unfortunately he also happens to be controlled by the leaders of the largest empire the world has ever seen. While he has little hope of wriggling his way out of it, he intends to make his entry into the Sieve as damaging to them as he can. While most are fixated on the events of the Sieve's stages, intently watching the young and talented as they go head to head to find out who holds the title of strongest, Karma Alabaster has her eyes on the powers behind the curtains- the endless machinations of the Immortals and their servants. Caught between enough crisscrossing schemes to form a spiderweb, she must use every ounce of her not inconsiderable mind to keep herself from playing into another's hands... all while solving a mysterious and seemingly impossible murder. The winds of change are blowing in Bermuda, and only one person will shape them. Cover art by: Nova @no_no_nova on tiktok @no_no_no_nova on ig THREE NEW CHAPTERS POSTED EVERY SINGLE WEEK.

At her death, the Pantheon, a collection of all of the patron deities of all the many worlds, offered her a place among them. She accepted and thus, she created her own world to watch and protect, and named it Xael. Xael, a world of magic and swords, flourished for centuries, but now... Now, there are signs of a Great Calamity approaching, much like the one that caused her to be pulled her away from her father and sisters so many years before.
