Something new I'm trying for $5+ tiers - a mini \"Choose Your Change\" style gift. Currently experimental but willing to expand under the right conditions.\n2. A CYOA (currently paused) - It's up to 9 parts so far!\n3. I have over 40 (!!!) stories posted on the Patreon but nowhere else. This includes Office Bitch chapter 3 and 4, The Gift chapter 3 and so, so much more. Backlogs are posted in Discord due to needing to wipe \u0026 restart the Patreon.\n4. I ask for polls and feedback and sometimes your input directs my writing.\n5. I sometimes commission a piece of art for the $5+ tiers\n6. The highest tier ($10) gets their own private Discord channel where I sometimes ask for writing prompts.","content":"\"They've come for you!\" Cidrin yelled as he crashed through the small store.\u0026nbsp; He stumbled and fell and a shelf of glass shattered next to him.\u0026nbsp; \"You have to run!\u0026nbsp; They're coming for you!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe small child still wore the cast she'd made for him and the herbs stuffed within mixed with the oils and tinctures from the broken vials surrounding him.\u0026nbsp; Midia glanced up sharply at his entry and immediately moved to help him back up.\u0026nbsp; She fussed at his arm but he pulled away as he caught his breath.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"No,\" he told her, standing and pushing with his good arm.\u0026nbsp; \"Don't worry about me, please!\u0026nbsp; Just grab what you need and run!\u0026nbsp; I know a way out.\u0026nbsp; Please.\u0026nbsp; They're right behind me.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Be calm, child,\" she told him.\u0026nbsp; She stepped behind the small counter of her store to grab her careworn leather sack.\u0026nbsp; She filled it with books and flasks and came back to him.\u0026nbsp; \"Lead on but, please, take care.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe young boy bolted and she followed on long, lean legs.\u0026nbsp; Her white hair streamed behind her but her unwrinkled, smooth young face showed not a single concern.\u0026nbsp; She held faith in her goddess and-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nTurning a corner, the young boy screamed as he was met with a huge crowd of people.\u0026nbsp; They held lamps and homemade clubs and pitchforks and a few old swords passed down by their ancestors.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"No!\" Cidrin shouted.\u0026nbsp; He turned to go back the way they'd come but another crowd filtered through the alleyway behind them.\u0026nbsp; \"Don't-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA stone whistled through the air, striking the child on the forehead.\u0026nbsp; Midia cried out and caught him as he fell but blood leaked from the child's ears and nose and his eyes were unseeing and bloodshot.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Gods damn you!\" she shouted as she lay the child down.\u0026nbsp; \"Gods damn you-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe crowd swarmed her as she raised her arms to cast a spell of retribution.\u0026nbsp; They began to kick and punch her, drowning out her cries until a well-placed strike brought darkness.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n---\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe awoke to muffled, sussuring conversations and the loud cry of an angry man.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"- did find,\" the angry man proclaimed.\u0026nbsp; \"That her husband developed sores around his manhood.\u0026nbsp; Upon examination, her husband swore they manifested after the witch stared at him cross-wise while passing in the street.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe tried to reply but her jaw ached and her head spun.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Two days ago!\" the man continued.\u0026nbsp; \"Mother Els found her child blue and unbreathing in its crib after her cock crowed twice in the middle of the night.\u0026nbsp; A passing guard swore he saw the witch skulking through the alleys at the same time.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n_Likely the same guard what asked me to murder his wife so he could marry his lover,_ Midia mused darkly.\u0026nbsp; She spat but it dribbled weakly down her bloody, swollen lips and chin.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"But last night, dear citizens,\" the man said.\u0026nbsp; \"Our beloved queen, may she rest forever at Tylla's breast, fell ill and died.\u0026nbsp; She was in good health but the guard remembered a day earlier that the witch was most vocal when arguing against her majesty closing the orphanage.\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n_Oh, yes,_ Midia smiled.\u0026nbsp; She coughed and laughed and blood bubbled from her open lips.\u0026nbsp;_Oh yes, that one **was** sweet._\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"See for yourselves!\" the man screamed, pointing at her.\u0026nbsp; \"She is without remorse!\u0026nbsp; She is found guilty in the eyes of the law and sentenced to burning at the stake!\u0026nbsp; So that our kingdom might be cleansed of her **_filth_**!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nOnly now did she notice the guards holding the torches to her side.\u0026nbsp; She winced at the pain in her mouth and throat and wondered, briefly, if she could swallow her own tongue before the fire bit at her heels.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe guards touched their torches to the kindling surrounding her and then stepped away to join the warden.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe felt the air dance around her, hot and teasing the pain that would follow.\u0026nbsp; It lifted her hair on superheated currents and several people gasped at the simple illusion.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n_Kesma, hear me,_ she whispered with a whistling voice through broken teeth and swollen lips.\u0026nbsp; _Spare me not for I've done wrong by them.\u0026nbsp; Not all they've accused of me but enough.\u0026nbsp; I've worked magic both dark and light, as is your purview, and worshipped you in all your facets.\u0026nbsp; I ask not a boon for me but for Cidrin._\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe screamed and nearly choked as the fire licked and charred the skin of her legs.\u0026nbsp; Sweat rolled down her brow, only to evaporate in the raging fire.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n_The boy!_ she tried to yell through the pain.\u0026nbsp;_He was innocent and tried to protect me, knowing they would harm him!\u0026nbsp; Please!\u0026nbsp; He tried to help a daughter of yours and was killed for it!\u0026nbsp; Please!\u0026nbsp; Gods!\u0026nbsp; Kesma!\u0026nbsp; I accept this pain in payment!_\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA torrent of flame surrounded her, sucking the faint screaming from her voice.\u0026nbsp; Her skin bubbled and popped and sloughed away.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nAnd beneath the skin lay shimmering white scale.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe felt it eating away at her and the pain was more than she could bear.\u0026nbsp; Still, she survived through it despite her prayers turning to curses.\u0026nbsp; In her agony, she begged to be killed before she was completely burned away.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe post holding her cracked and splintered and she fell forward, sure that she would be crushed under the weight of it.\u0026nbsp; It struck her and she roared at the pain of it.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA gout of pure blue and white flame shot out, incinerating a nearby group of people.\u0026nbsp; She looked down and blinked and a second set of eyelids slid down to cover her eyes.\u0026nbsp; Her eyes grew yellow behind the translucent film and her irises compressed into a vertical slit.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Wot's happenin' in there?!\" some voice called out from the crowd.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMidia looked down at her knuckles through the flame.\u0026nbsp; Her fingernails bulged as her hands spasmed.\u0026nbsp; Her nails folded into sharp claws and then pushed forth, sliding from the tips of her lengthening, swelling fingers.\u0026nbsp; She rocked back, flexing her spine up and down.\u0026nbsp; The still-soft scales flexed and parted as wet bone emerged from her shoulder blades.\u0026nbsp; The bone cracked and split, unfolding into separate parts to show pink muscle and white tendons attaching the bones to her back.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe witch screamed.\u0026nbsp; Her throat burned as flame shot into the sky and her teeth melted away to leave bare gums behind.\u0026nbsp; She hung her head, panting as hot blood fell from her mouth to sizzle and mar the ground beneath her.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nPressure bloomed within her chest and she groaned.\u0026nbsp; Her voice sounded monstrous.\u0026nbsp; Booming.\u0026nbsp; Hollow.\u0026nbsp; She felt as if her heart would burst from it but the scales, hardening now, moved as her body expanded.\u0026nbsp; Her spine broke, split and lengthened and she anchored herself with her ivory claws.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Something's happening!\" a woman screamed.\u0026nbsp; \"She's- something's not right!\u0026nbsp; I can't see-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMidia flapped her bony, bloody wings as they continued to spread and develop.\u0026nbsp; She slammed her hands beneath her and the ground shook from the impact.\u0026nbsp; The fire had spread inside of her body - inside of her bones.\u0026nbsp; It coursed through her, burning and singeing every fiber of her being.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWith a hiss, her tongue slipped out and forked, the skin cleaving in twain as it flickered in the air.\u0026nbsp; Tasting their fear and uncertainty.\u0026nbsp; When her tongue pulled back, it slid over the tips of her fangs emerging from her widening jaw.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nAs her body expanded, her breasts stretched flat.\u0026nbsp; Fat melted away as the skin withdrew and scales flowed to cover her nipples.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe raging fire could no longer contain her bulk and the crowd screamed and panicked at the sight of her.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Don't!\" The warden screamed.\u0026nbsp; \"Don't panic!\u0026nbsp; It's a trick of the- It's-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nOld, deep magic came to her with Kesma's blessing.\u0026nbsp; Her scaly nostrils huffed steam as her skull expanded and filled with the gifted lore.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThin skin emerged from the tips of her wings.\u0026nbsp; It raced in a line down to her shoulders and she flexed, blowing out the fire with one powerful gust of air.\u0026nbsp; She rose briefly into the air and her white scales shimmered like a prism struck by the sun.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe sang and the very air vibrated and trembled with the spell she wove.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe warden stumbled and gripped his head with a yell.\u0026nbsp; He shook and cursed and pushed the nearby guard away when he reached to help.\u0026nbsp; The guard came for him again and then stepped back as the warden's ears elongated into thin points.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Help me!\" the warden screeched as his skin began to take on a green tint.\u0026nbsp; He shrunk into himself as his jaw widened and grew deep.\u0026nbsp; He spat teeth in the face of the guard and then grabbed the other man, shoving him to his knees.\u0026nbsp; \"I can't-\u0026nbsp; Stop!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe warden stepped out of his oversized clothes and the crowd gasped.\u0026nbsp; The white of his eyes became bloodshot and then completely red.\u0026nbsp; His words faded to high pitched screeching as he grabbed his misshapen, mushroom-headed cock.\u0026nbsp; He forced it between the guard's lips and began pumping while his white, pasty body turned a sickly emerald shade.\u0026nbsp; The man's pot belly slammed against the guard's chin and his feet swelled as his toenails cracked and split and expanded.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWith a high-pitched scream, the warden exploded in the guard's mouth and the other man's eyes widened as the creature's spunk filled him.\u0026nbsp; He gagged and finally found the strength to pull away.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nSharp fangs filled the guard's mouth.\u0026nbsp; His nose bulged and turned hooked and long as the round edges of his ears grew to long points.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nScreeches erupted in the crowd as Midia continued to grow.\u0026nbsp; Her tail, already longer than her human body, swished behind her, crashing through the wooden platform which had contained her.\u0026nbsp; It shattered into splinters and thick chunks of wood that then imbedded into nearby buildings.\u0026nbsp; She raised her wings to dry in the overhead sun and the thin skin turned blacked as she flicked ichor off of them.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nShe eyed the changing humans around her, laughing as they assaulted each other and spread the transformations.\u0026nbsp; Her voice rumbled the buildings surrounding her and windows cracked.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA young woman tore her dress from her body to expose green, shrunken breasts with black nipples.\u0026nbsp; She threw herself on a nearby man, pulling and shredding at his clothes while crying and apologizing until she was spreading her tiny, blackened pussy lips around his cock.\u0026nbsp; He shoved at her but she bit at his fingers, chewing one entirely off at the joint.\u0026nbsp; The man's scream turned to a shrill hiss as his lips split and widened to show an unnatural maw.\u0026nbsp; The panic in his eyes faded to a manic lust.\u0026nbsp; Soon after, his cock shrunk and he pulled one of the woman's long nipples into his mouth to suckle from her.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA passing duchess backed her way against her carriage as her guards changed.\u0026nbsp; One of them, already small and green and lost to human speech, tore her dress while the other struggled with his changes.\u0026nbsp; The smaller one wasted no time in shoving his odd cock between the lady's pink legs.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Don't do this,\" the woman cried as the creature pumped against her.\u0026nbsp; \"Please.\u0026nbsp; Remember.\u0026nbsp; Remember who you are-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Do you even know my naaaaame,\" the still-human man hissed.\u0026nbsp; His eyes were reddened and he gripped his cock.\u0026nbsp; \"Bitch?\u0026nbsp; Do you even know who I am?\u0026nbsp; Ten years! Ten years and now you'll choke on my fat cock you-\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe man's voice turned high-pitched as his tongue lashed out, long and thin to wrap around her throat.\u0026nbsp; He pushed her down and straddled her face but she was already shrinking and welcoming his attentions.\u0026nbsp; Warts emerged from her face as her rounded nose pressed out to bump against the man's cock.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Fuck me!\" she screeched as her eyes turned red.\u0026nbsp; She flipped over, slapped her ass and spread her cheeks to show her black asshole.\u0026nbsp; \"Fuck my dirty ass!\u0026nbsp; Use meeeee!\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe changes continued in a wave around the dragon.\u0026nbsp; They took each other without a care for what hole they abused.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMidia watched with interest as a young virginal maid pulled and yanked and screamed at the green tail growing from her white, pale ass.\u0026nbsp; She screamed louder as a man forced himself on her and they changed together until the man broke away to take another man's virgin asshole.\u0026nbsp; The girl lashed her tail around another woman's throat, holding her in place as she forced her pussy down on the other woman.\u0026nbsp; Beneath her, the woman's face cracked and widened and her drumming hands slowed until they gripped the woman's ass and tail.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh gods, oh gods, make it stop,\" a woman begged.\u0026nbsp; She crawled toward Midia with her clothes in ruins.\u0026nbsp; A tiny green tail wriggled above her wide hips and her pussy lips, slick with the excitement she was denying herself, were turning a deep shade of black.\u0026nbsp; As she shrunk, her lips swelled and expanded and her scent caught a nearby changing male.\u0026nbsp; His hook nose took in her smell and he drooled.\u0026nbsp; She stared up at the approaching man with horror.\u0026nbsp; Slowly, bit-by-bit, the horror turned to sneering excitement and she offered herself to him, spreading her thick green thighs while her scaly tail arched up to touch her neck.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMidia roared and her subjects paused in their orgy.\u0026nbsp; Fights broke out from unsatisfied lovers but were quickly quelled as they turned their attention to their mistress.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe dragon took flight with a quick prayer to her goddess.\u0026nbsp; She would circle the city and ensure none escaped alive.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nAs one, with her unspoken direction, the goblins fanned out with plans no more solid than one word:\u0026nbsp; **_chaos._**\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
