Travelling Lighter Marcus shifted uncomfortably, his muscles were beyond cramped, held in place and given no room to exercise by the soft, wet walls that hugged him tightly on all sides, he was pretty sure they were atrophied by this point, but if so and to what extent he couldn’t tell.He definitely knew that he’d been stuck in Lisselle’s womb for more than a week, not because he’d counted, Mother knew he didn’t have that sort of brainpower, no, it had just been way too long, hell, a f

Like Fire “Hellfire!”The Victorian gentleman cried, “What sort of society has the word ‘Hellfire’ in its name?” “But father!” the young lady being screamed at responded “Half its members are priests.” the young lady, Cindelle Hobson was arguing with her father, Lord Bertrand Hobson, over her recent affiliation with a new church group aimed at the more elite members of society, “Well that just goes to show, can’t even trust the church now days, well I forbid you from atten

Number Not Found “Fucking bitch!” Arcade swore, “My phone, really? She knows I need that for its alarm setting, and I just bought it as well.” the young man muttered as he stomped down the hall, “Why can’t she just buy a sex toy like a normal person” he said before gently opened the door to his sisters room.Arcade Land, a 19 year old human living in Lornrest, an Initiative city located on the northern end of the eastern shore of The World Within’s central continent, often had to

Time for Crab James woke with a start, Selica, one of the expeditions hired help, was shaking him, “Wake up sleepy-head!” she cooed, “We’re here.” as he tried to rise he was greeted by the grinning face of the lamia that his research team had hired, taking up all of his vision, “Gah!” he yelped in alarm, “I’m awake, I’m awake!” he tried to push her off of him, but found his arms were bound to his side, looking down he could see that Selica had coiled her body around his, �

Fetch The evening had worn on to it’s latter hours, with the hot, dry desert air that permeated The City during the day having long given way to the biting chill of the desert night.The sandstone streets and buildings of the old town, illuminated by dim light of the stars and nighttime sun, slowly gave way to the concrete and steel of The City’s more modern districts as Katelyn Founder made her way home in a foul mood, and the day had started so normally as well.She had woken up in the morni

Carnal JusticeAshe‘Takes them my eyes, to lines their pockets.’‘Locks me down below, to wander withouts dominion.’‘Bows before me, when I claims your wealths and cities for mine own.’-Inscription on an ancient clay tablet found in an underground ruin.*Thump, thump, thump*The thief was roused from his slumber by a light tapping on the walls surrounding him, “Earnest?” the soft voice of Anne, his, landlady of sorts reverberated through the womb surrounding h

Mr. Dudreys Elf Maid “Uh, my head.” Colin Dudrey moaned as he slowly pried his eyes open, the previous night was all a blur, to him, but he tried his best to remember anyway.It had been a Friday night, end of the school week, thank the mother, and not just end of the week, but end of the school year, oh sure he’d have paperwork to do in the meantime but right now he could finally go out into the town with some of the other teachers and get completely shitfaced without having to worry about

Just a BIG softy reallyJakob looked between the men, he was cornered.Jakob, an engineer for the Planitia shipwright company in the free city of Clearharbour had attempted to cut through an alleyway, he was desperately needed at dry dock 3 as one of their cranes was experiencing a mechanical failure, however, it seemed someone had been anticipating his route and set up an ambush in advance.“Just turn out your pockets and ‘and over ya little toolbox, do that, and we let ya go. Simple.” The m

Just Friends By the Mother it had been a long day.Normally at the end of a work week Art Ritan would have gone to the tavern with his colleagues, but with the border conflicts to the east and the Initiative slowly creeping their way around the northern mountains, closer and closer to Kirsch every day, the population was panicking, and he’d been swamped by people trying to withdraw all their money from their bank accounts.Apparently failing to remember that the bank had a limit on how much coul

Steppe Mother Khulaan, a young Mongolian woman, stood before the tent, its occupant was favoured by the war-chief, he was a great warrior, second only to the chief and likely heir should anything happen to Khulaan’s beloved.The chief likely saw the tents occupant as a son, but a son would have respect for the women his father took as wives, Han did not.He was a belligerent, self important half-wit who wholeheartedly believed that his close position to the chief granted him the right to do what

Down, Down to Goblin TownIt hadn’t exactly been the best night for Joseph, he’d only just finished setting up his camp when the horses began panicking, he’d started to head in their direction to see what had spooked them when, before he could react, something small had darted out from behind his wagon in the corner of his vision and *Whump!* he was unconscious.He’d woken up later, unsure of how much time had passed, being rocked back and forth, suspended upside down and unable to move, h

A Sanctuary in Nature Elum clutched his wound tightly as he stumbled through the dense underbrush, he never could understand how goblins could change their behaviour so much based on where they lived, sure the ones in the cities were often criminals, but that was nothing compared to the borderline savage tribal societies of goblins from more rural areas.It had been a fairly standard mission, give the new concealment potion a test run by sneaking into a goblin camp and recovering a nobleman's tri

Travelling LightMarcus sighed, he almost stopped, but instead chose to continue down the road, eyes staring off at nothing in particular as he committed to just walking, but despite his intentions to just leave, he found himself stopping after just a few feet, “This journey was supposed to take 2 days by foot.” he said without moving his head to face whoever he was addressing.His voice was flat, without any inflections in the tone, a sign that, despite the annoyance his words conveyed, he’

(Rock) Hard TimeBradley smirked as he was led through the familiar stone halls, he’d been through this whole song and dance enough times now, he attempts a big heist, he gets caught and put in prison and then he escapes, nothing would change, he even knew the name of the guard currently taking him to his cell, Azri, a female Man-o-the-Woods, he knew all the guards names by this point, the secret behind how he knew this all was, of course his skill-set, on the one hand, the Newauld Ordinators h

Rushed to the Emergency Womb:The Burn Ward“Clear the way! I said MOVE!” The paramedics rushed through the busy hospital lobby pushing a stretcher covered with a white sheet, partly to obscure the hideous scarring of the patient beneath from the onlookers, but mostly because the healing salves and concoctions the sheet was drenched in where probably the only thing keeping her alive at this point.An arson attack, the culprits so far unknown, had been launched against the library's of the Powde
