ULTRAMagic (Before) Prelude - Chapter 13

Previous | First | Haze & Chaos Master Post - Patreon           And with that, Scotty and Zara took that as their cue to leave and return to the Dark Void. Upon reporting back to Leif he was relieved to hear that Blood-Wraith met up with Dragoslava and was well within the safety of the city walls. As much as he wanted to take another victory lap, he had work to do now that Blood-Wraith was in place, and took off in his dragon form. Nosmirc also felt a similar wave of relief wash over him and had to take his leave too. The others were a little confused, but he assured them that it was just some minor housekeeping. In truth he was heading back to his time, as his job was finally done. After a quick hop, skip, and a jump through a special corridor of the Cosmos only he could access, he found himself at Beorhtric’s spectacular, yet modest castle–his home away from home. He then slouched with a groan that gave him a gait that betrayed all of the confide...

ULTRAMagic (Before) Prelude - Chapter 12

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon           In celebration of their victory and defeating the last of the Audoan Knights, a feast was held and the majority of the guild was in attendance. Prior to the arrival of Scotty, things had been quiet and calm, leading to the guild never really having a cause for celebration like the one they had been presented with. The members were easy going and laid back, but now they felt truly rallied and united. The Eternal Order was not going to be content with going after The Unlight. Leif’s heroism and persistence told them that not only can they rise to meet the challenge, but that they can also thrive and keep rolling with the punches no matter what happens. They would valiantly hold the line until the next ULTRAMagic Guild rose, and the Dark Divers would continue to be by their side for the foreseeable future. Despite the merry and triumphant attitude of the guild, Leif had a knot in his stomach that ...

ULTRAMagic (Before) Prelude - Chapter 11

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon           The next four days saw a lull in activity, with Damien going eerily quiet. This was no cause for celebration, as Scotty was certain that Damien was planning something and even spoke with the other Azoth Mages to validate his suspicions. And Scotty was proven right when word had come in from The Highway Knight that he had spotted Damien at The Forsaken Labyrinth, which stood at the border between the Dark Void and the True Abyss. The Highway Knight had engaged Damien as the miscreant was attempting to find a portal to Universe-23 and had located the gateway in question, but thankfully Leif, Mind-Wraith, and Aava had shown up just in the nick of time. Another great fight ensued between the Audoan Knight and the members of the Dark Divers Guild, but this time Damien would not be given a chance to escape. Weapons clashed and magic blasted back and forth within the obsidian and ashen halls of the gre...

ULTRAMagic (Before) Prelude - Chapter 10

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon           “Well, I mean I get that a lot, as I tend to get around,” Nosmirc tried to handwave. “I’m the Amazing Nosmirc after all, a purveyor of favors and services–a bit of a miracle worker if you will…” “No no, I definitely recognize you from somewhere…” The Metal God asserted as he stroked his chin. “That voice is unmistakeable…” Erikson whistled in a mocking manner. “This just got interesting…” Nosmirc was sweating bullets as everyone was beginning to stare, but thankfully the tension was broken by a stone doorway rising up from the floor from nearby. The great hall shook for a second as the doors opened with sand spilling from them. “Oh look at that–The Madman of Old, ladies and gentlemen!” Walking over to the group was a tall, stone statue of man with a distinct brutalist aesthetic to him, but it was easy to tell this was not his true self. “Grettings everyone, pardon my unannounced arrival.”...
