Darkness and Starlight 23 - A History of Violence

The Rising Fallen Star 6 - Fifty-Seven
Another day in the Mushroom Kingdom, as Roy MacGregor went down to check on the Kennidon household as usual. It had been a rather fussy thing to organise a good time for him to go down and check on James' garden when all three of them had things to...
Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 17 - An Odd Professor

Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 20 - The Grand Reveal

Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 13 - The Weston Kingdom
The interior of the pyramid welcomed them with some relief from the blazing heat outside, but the cold had hit them so smoothly that they could not help but shiver. Stone yellow halls glistening with the firelight of strangely-lit torches, cobbled...
Darkness and Starlight 11 - Revenge of the Koopa Brothers
The path towards the Shhwonk Fortress was littered with the remnants of its civilisation. Crumbling mortar that once stood tall as either houses or fort guards, it was a far cry from the peaceful unspoilt field far to the west behind them. Ruined...
Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 7 - Frost Bite

Knight of Toad Town 3 - The Friend at Night
_Roy rushed over to where Sher T. now laid, weakly stirring into consciousness as he stared up towards the ceiling of the cargo hold._ _"Hey, s'alrigh', you gonna be okay."_ _"Th-...th-the...the deal-"_ _"Never mind that, come on we gotta get...
Darkness and Starlight 18 - The Star Warrior

Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 12 - The Great Expedition
