Anthropology Isekai 7
“Alright, so, you guys want some breaking news?” the radio jockey said a few days after, “How’s this? They got the Gryphon.” Mark had been in the middle of reroofing his home. Again. The little makeshift sheets he put on top fulfilled their...

Anthropology Isekai 12 (Arc End)
The day had started like any other. Katya had begrudgingly used Mark’s knife instead of his monster killing blade to split the edible part of some of the thinner trees into a pot. What caves existed in these hills were tiny little things that she...
Anthropology Isekai 6

Redux A Noble Regressor 14: A Home To Return To.

Torches and the Oars 11: Sea god
“We have to hurry,” Alessia said with frustration. They were kneeling on a planked pier in one of Trito’s southern-most bay. The merchantmen, the long ships, and all other great wooden beasts with banks of rowing oars, all had their place in...
Torches and The Oars 2
Alessia didn’t really get to talk to her mother the next day either. Or the one after that, for that matter. Her father’s house had a single floor and a single small tower. It was expansive enough to house their servants, who could be...
