    Been sick for the last few days, so no work or school. Guess that means I have a moment to try and write something. Will it be any good? My feverish brain says no, but it's better than nothing!

    My entry's up! Again, sorry for how long it took. I'm not very happy with this entry, but I wanted to get some more development between our rag-tag group of patchwork kids. I'm not sure where I was going with it story-wise, but I just let the words guide me lol. Anyway, I hope it's acceptable...

    The Jade Empire - Official story

    Jiàn watched the scene unfold with the stillness of a drawn blade. The old woman’s words curled through the air like incense smoke; slow, heavy, inescapable. She told herself to dismiss them as superstition, but her heart betrayed her. Something deep within her recognized this moment. When...

    Ahh!! Im sorry I’ve been out of town and away from my computer with all my notes. I get home tomorrow night but will need another day or so to write my entry. Feel free to skip my turn if needed but I’ll have it done this week I promise!

    I feel like it's been so long since I had a good writing streak. I miss being able to just sit down with a coffee or tea and just go.

    New entry is up! It's mostly just a flashback, but I got a sudden rush of inspiration for Jian's backstory and how she got her own echo machine. Left the ending open so the next entries can steer the story (I also had no clue where to go next lol) anyway! I hope y'all like it!

    The Jade Empire - Official story

    Jiàn kept her vigil at the archway, the stone chill pressing against her back, sword balanced lightly across her knees. The ruins were hushed save for Tala’s restless murmurs. The girl shifted and twisted, her brow pinched in sleep as if even her dreams carried the weight of fragments and...

    Edits made to Rennie's dialogue that @Louanne Learning kindly pointed out was incorrect. Made the lad Scottish just like the Lord intended. And @buttercream @Whiskii, if there's anything I write that mischaracterizes your characters, please let me know. If It's big plot related things, I'll...

    My entry's up! Took some liberties on how steam powered bikes function (I assume they need to be recharged....with like, i don't know, water?) So having all the characters stop and talk felt necessary. Put them all on the same page and the same path, even though they may not know what it is...

    The steam bikes gave their last hiss as they coasted to a stop, their engines clicking like cooling kettles. What had once been a fortress—now a hollowed-out carcass of stone and rust—offered just enough shelter from the biting wind. A few broken archways stood like crooked teeth, catching the...
