    Feeling stagnant. Covered in pond scum and icky larvae. Might find some catfish or eels, though. Which is pretty sick.

    Sorry for the late reply, but he works alone. He, along with Jian, studied under a shared mentor but had different ideologies. Jian went east to the Himalayas, Locke went west.

    No, Locke isn't there still. He's hiding out...somewhere lol. I haven't decided where.

    The Jade Empire - Official story

    Jiàn stiffened the moment the voice rang through the trees. “Jián? Is that you?” Her eyes snapped to the source — and time folded in on itself. He was older now, the softness of youth carved into the leaner lines of adulthood. But the posture was the same: graceful, poised, every movement...

    Why do you write?

    I had a very specific thing I wanted to read but I couldn't find it in any book, so I wrote it myself. The writing wasn't good, per se, but I enjoyed reading it. And sometimes I just have to get it out, you know? I want to entertain, I want to be entertained. I want to write something that I...

    I was thinking of a way to bring them together and Daiyu's bird could be a good way to have them meet. I'm assuming that Shiyun might "speak" the same language in a way, since she's able to pick up on emotional frequencies. I'm not sure! Honestly, I'm kinda winging it (no pun intended). I'm...

    Shanghai Outskirts — two days since the battle under the teahouse. The trees thinned as they climbed. The path — if it could be called that — was little more than a tread of dry earth and moss between brambles. Old roots curled from the ground like sleeping serpents, and the air smelled like...

    Especially if his first name is Tobias. Ain't no way that dude is a good guy.

    I'm totally fine with expanding on Tobias Locke and his past and adding former students or whatnot.

    I do plan on Locke being the main bad guy for Tala and Jian, but I'm open to other antagonists, of course. If y'all wanna incorporate him into your stories as well, that's totally fine with me!

    Renata’s world is ending -- or maybe it already has -- and she’s clinging to memory, love, and ritual as the clock ticks forward. Or… backward. Thank you to everyone who read it, voted for it, and saw something in this strange little tale. It means more than I can put into words. Truly. tl;dr...
