《Rythian Enderbane》Chapter 6: A Mage

Zoey's POV
I watched and giggled as Rythian tried - unsuccessfully - to climb the cliff from which I had jumped. I had scaled the same cliff before, and a lot quicker than him. When he still hadn't even reached halfway after several tries, I said,
"I hope you realise how terribly you're doing," He gave a sigh "I'll show you the easiest route if you'd like!"
"No thanks, I can work it out."
He said it dismissively, but was I about to be dismissed from this conversation? No. I started it and I shall dismiss it. I smiled to myself and said,
"You're very stubborn... and independent!"
"Thank you for telling me that, it was very helpful, very helpful indeed. Please continue to tell me my faults and then follow it up with a good ol' compliment."
"Okay! You smell like a horse. But... uuuh... you eat with enthusiasm?!" I burst out laughing and so did he, meaning he fell from the rocky wall and straight on top of me. He got off of me quicker than you would have thought humanly possible.
"Aren't you going to thank me for being your human crash-mat?" I grinned, mockingly.
His forehead went light pink and I knew he was blushing.
"Yeah, thanks for the soft landing!"
I stuck out my tongue at him like a child. Then I ran over to him and touched his shoulder, saying,
"TAG! You're it!"
"Oh no you don't!"
He ran after me and we soon fell on the ground, giggling like crazed lunatics.
It was comfortable. Just lying there in the warm sand. It was calm, and quiet all around us, like the earth had fallen asleep.
"Well, I'd better get back to climbing that stupid cliff, I want some sort of structure on it by nightfall"

He stated.
"Suuuurrree. 'Cause THAT'S going to happen."
"Yeah, it is."
He studied the cliff for a moment, then climbed it nearly as quickly as I could have done! I went up after him.
"Now, that was stylin'." I told Rythian
"Thanks"
"No, not you, I was talking about myself! I'm very stylin'! But, I guess you were kinda awesome... ish."
I smiled, but he looked angry! I don't know how anyone could get angry at such a compliment!
Rythian's POV
Starting on the shelter, I quickly made a wall of dirt using the spell: moaventium .
Then, I put together a small table, in order to made a condenser and power flower later on.With that, I could become the most powerful man on the map. If I so desire.
As I worked, I noticed a presence behind me, and turned around. There stood Zoey.
"Rythian...."
"What d'you want? Do you need something?"
"What's this?"
I looked up. She was pointing at a tablet with what looked like scales balanced on it.
"That's my transmutation tablet."
"How does it work?!"
"Ok, so, you put the source object in the left scale, and you can create a different object with similar value in the right," I explained "If you want something with a larger value than what you put on the left, however, you can burn things in this slot at the bottom for fuel." I pointed to a smallish hole in the tablet, it was perfectly central to the two scales and about as big as a tennis ball.
She nodded.
"Cool." I watched as she put two arrows on the left, then they disappeared and appeared on the right side again.
"Hey Rythian. I put in dos arrows and made dos arrows!"
"Well done, Zoey. Good for you."
She grinned at me, turned on her heel, and pulled herself onto the dirt wall, saying,
"Yay! Now, I'm a wizard!"
"Nya, I prefer the term 'Mage'"
She blew a raspberry at me and leapt gracefully down from the wall. I was starting to change my thoughts about this girl. Even if she has science in her eyes, maybe, just maybe, I will be able to trust her.

The Caring Dungeon
NOTE: I, as an 'author' am on a(n) (indefinite?) Hiatus. Without getting into too many details, the person who convinced me to write, who was my muse and my everything, is no longer in my life. I think about writing and I get physically ill and ache in ways that transcend the physical. I want to want to write, but I cannot find the energy. Life events, combined with apparently thin-skin when it comes to personal attacks on this platform, make it impossible for me. The messages, comments, and reviews I recieve(d) were so detrimental to my mental health that I've already removed one story from this website. This one remains up only because the criticisms located in this work are about my writing, and not personal attacks.I just felt like I should put something out there for anyone who is thinking about starting this story. It is not completed. I don't know that it ever will be at this point. I have lost my muse.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Not everything in this world is natural, and it's only natural to fear the unnatural. Fortunately for Manning, he was natural. Unfortunately, he found himself to be in a very unnatural state. Manning was trapped inside of a gemstone, called a dungeon core. Luckily for Manning, he found himself capable of using his newly found unnatural power to make a nature filled forest. With the help of Cara, his unnatural roommate, and Ash, his nature spirit companion, Manning dreams of covering the continent with the most beautiful and dangerous forest it has ever seen. His only other goals are to protect himself and Cara, and if he could ever remember, recover his memories. This is my first time attempting to write anything. Updates whenever I can find the energy and desire to write.

Nobody's Way
Foreign Thorn: Book 1 For eight centuries, the people of Isla have wanted for nothing. The Creator, Maere, uses Her power not only to keep them healthy and fed, but also to map the direction of each person's future Path - their vocation, role in society, and even the partner they'll spend their life with. In a world where infighting once threatened the very survival of humankind, the old texts say that Maere personally stepped in to help guide Her creations to harmony. All is not well among the people of the northern lands, however, as Jian discovers when she receives her own long-awaited Path. The Creator has chosen to favour some towns, but not others, leading to anarchy and unrest in the east, and fierce distrust between the neighbours who enjoy Her protection and those who don't. After many nights of disturbing premonitions, visions of a face uncannily familiar to her, and a voice beckoning her to "Homeland," Jian decides she needs to find answers for herself. She hires Madrigal, a surly young traveller hailing from an "unblessed" village, to take her to the southern lands. The swordsman is on the run from something, or someone, but Jian has no choice but to trust him. When the two leave the safety of the familiar and meet Quinn, a mysterious boy who seems to know more about Jian than she does about herself, it becomes clear that there are forces besides the old magics, forces completely unknown to the people of Isla, in play. Madrigal and Jian aren't sure if Quinn can be trusted, but they're certain he knows more than he's letting on...
