Big November Lotsa Funvember – or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Leaves (The Kell Inkston Report – November 2023)
And a happy leaf fallin’, pie eatin’, “corridor month between two super-celebrated US holidays” type of time to you! Hope the Christmas music on the radio hasn’t gotten to you yet. It’s sort of uniquely humorous how the “Big Two” holiday block here in the US extends more and more each year. I saw Halloween […]
The Canyon Speaks
I “They’re a nice ride,” Hos says, his slitted, half-dragon eyes sparkling from the light of the badlands. He pats the mount, a sturdy quarter horse packed down with supplies for the trip, while his guide: a swarthy, grinning Spirakandrin, swings off his own horse and takes up the reins in one hand in a […]
Happy Holidays – a new release, a loving reminder for the turn of the year… oh, and also the EOY report

Dirty, Rotten Thievery! -Part 6–
“There, we’re here,” Order says with a finalized tone, ushering the minions through the coalesced portal, one that took her ten times as much time and effort as it would Chaos. Her and the rescued minions step back into the Center Tower’s main plaza, replete with the mania of a raid. “Bro, there’s some over […]
With all Limbs Broken and no Hope for Rescue, it falls to the Shattered Analyst to Survive through Will Alone (The Fretted February Update)
And here we are, it’s ALMOST SPRING! *Bug swarm immediately rises from a nearby pile of leaves to feast on the living* HORAAAAAY! … Excuse me, I understand not everyone shares my enthusiasm for the changing of the seasons. You know, I’ve thought about the question of “which season is my favorite” for more than […]
Dirty, Rotten Thievery -Part 5-
A twinkling of starlight, all warning sensors pinging off, a wide, white grin… and then death. That was the experience of Staff Sergeant Extine Avarta in the seconds it took Chaos to vault through the quarter-kilometer distance between him and the block guard. He doesn’t need a weapon, let alone magic, to kill enemies that […]
Wrecked, bedraggled, and utterly slammed by The Great Entropy, The Last Analyst continues boldly forward to bring fiction to the weeping masses (Or, the Delirious December 2020 update)
First, some truly lovely music. Eastshade is a recently-released game about painting various things for animals – what a novel concept! It’s exceptionally calm, captivating, and satisfying. I played it on a curious fluke, but I can assure you it’s a grand time for anyone looking for an immersive, combat-free experience. Also, as I hope […]
Desolation Scope: 4th Edition
A calm, late-night tea room in Towerne is the host to a brutal murder.

Dirty, Rotten Thievery! – Part 4
The deep-tech whir of a subsystem hums through the helm chamber. A high-speed dimensional coalescence cuts through the air, handily complying the intersecting of dimensions in only a matter of seconds. From the emptied out interstellar tunnel, a single, resplendent figure emerges. Like a cross between a priest and a savant of technology, Ywn enters […]
