"And now for this year's commencement speech. Mr. Joemac," said the high school's principal. Mr. Joemac took the podium, breathed deeply, and started his speech. However, as he was getting ready, Nick and Arron looked amazed. They hadn't seen the man since they took down the cult almost 3 years ago. "Thank you all for inviting me here. It is quite an honor to be this year's commencement speaker for the class of 2017. Now I know for some of you, you have pushed far beyond what you thought you could. For some, you brushed past this and thought...
I am Nobody Hammer, I am the Imperial Sword, the former leader of the trolls, and one of the few people to strike fear into Emperor Noone. I have the ability to remember every detail about my life. I won't write down everything; most of it is too boring, but I'll highlight some key points. To start, I wasn't born with the name Nobody. My real name is Nilk Hammer. I was the son of a former head of the House of Hammers. I grew up with some understanding of politics, but most of the time it just went over my head. When my father learned I could...
Kamo City had fallen. The country of Kamo would soon be swallowed by the Nocee Empire. However, while Emperor Noone was getting ready to induct Kamo into his empire, he gave Nothing Knives two armies to conquer the Golden Forests, the elf homeland. Nothing accepted the task, and soon he was on his way. After days of travel and recruiting, Nothing made it to the border between the Purple Caves and Golden Forest. His strategy? Burn the Forest. Doing so would allow his armies to march through without fearing ambushes, taking away the one advan...
The cult was home. It pushed Barron to be a better person. He was shown the world's various evils and told that he shouldn't give up fighting for it. Even though he was only 7, he showed wisdom and maturity beyond normal for kids his age. He saw the members become people from another world, dressed in strange garments and armour. They would share stories from the other world, perform magical spells, and preach about morality. Some people were called elves, others merfolk, few were called dwarves, halflings, or gnomes, and even rarer were hal...
Laraganus had spent decades in her swamp cottage. Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren would pay visits every so often. She would share her tales and offer a safe place for her descendants to spill their secrets. She also had to be her husband's (Shim) caretaker as his health was declining due to his average mortality. He was reaching 90, meanwhile, Laraganus was roughly 217. Her lineage of half-orc and elf blood allowed her to live far longer than anyone else, and she still hadn't hit her age limit yet. Life out here was pea...
For the last 8 years, Crackfoot had been the biggest thorn in Noone's side. Every battle had led to ten thousand dead on both sides. Yet Noone managed to gain territory, conquer another city, and push Crackfoot back every time. Every time this happened, Xera's (Crackfoot's wife) heart sank, her soul broke, and her hand trembled with each letter sent, never knowing which one would be the last. Then, after weeks of hearing nothing and seeing smoke from the burnt cities, Xera feared for the worse. After a couple more days, a weary army of halfl...
When Princess Kira of Kamo turned 12, she was given a diary by Kamos (Her half-orc step-dad). She was perplexed by the gift. She thought he would give her a weapon or something from his homeland of the Green Swamps, not a dusty book, but some reassurance from him she took the gift with gratitude. She began reading the book any time she had. If she wasn't sparring or learning to be a lady, she was reading. She began carrying it everywhere she went. Yet there were a lot of odd things about. Firstly, the author was Katose High Druid of Kamo. Ki...
Goldleaf's first owner was Arron a nerdy middle school boy driven by imagination. He was the first to free Goldleaf's soul from his metal dice prison. The two would butt heads constantly as Goldleaf's experience and age clashed with Arron's pacifism, innocence, and ignorance. However, over the years, the two began to see the other's view and fought various enemies. Then the day came when Arron had to give up being a Dice Changer and go off to college. Goldleaf was devastated by the news. 6 years ago he was a weak arrogant fool; now he is a p...
Dear future queen of Kamo I can't be I now have to change the way I do entries now because I now know that you're a GIRL! Oh, the beauty that will radiate from your face and how your smiles will warm everyone's hearts. Oh, I can't wait til you are born and to see your powers manifest into something both terrifying and yet beautiful. I also can't wait til you figure out which animals you'll be able to turn into. Will you be a dragon? Or what about a sea monster? Perhaps something simple like a unicorn? Then there's your animal form like will ...
Trevor was like every other 11-year-old nerdy boy. Star Wars, DnD, and Warhammer 40k took over his life. He didn't just read the books and comics; he lived them out. He became so immersed that he started writing his own fan fiction. Then, one day, his older brother came home with multiple sets of cool-looking dice. There was a glossy glittering purple set and a clear resin set with little animals. Then there were two metal sets: a copper metal set with black numbers and a gold set with white numbers. When Trevor laid eyes on the metal s...
It was Christmas time, and Jack was running late—he was never late. Yet here he was weaving through traffic, making sure he wasn't going over the speed limit too much because the last thing he needed was to be delayed even further. When he got to the game store he stormed into the building and to his horror several people were already there. People wore nerdy Christmas sweaters, they wore funny-looking elf hats. Some had Christmas-based t-shirts with puns on them. Jack took a deep breath. This was the game store's Christmas Party for the wor...
The half-orcs at the House of Swords Castle were having a party that was alive with drinks, music, dancing, and food. Gossip and laughter filled the air. That was until a cloaked figure opened the doors to the dining room. A couple of people gasped and screamed at the sight. The figure's cloak was covered in rain, mud, and leaves. His face could not be seen, not even his eyes could be noticed. As he walked through the crowd they encircled him but gave him plenty of space to pass by. People began to whisper and theorize. Such a stranger must ...
Thank you for coming here. Can you tell us your name, please? Catherine Belle Thank you. Now can you tell us what your powers are? Yes, I have the power to absorb sound waves and redirect them or amplify them. However, you have noticed how my voice doesn't get absorbed. That's because whenever I make sounds it comes from the reserve I've built up. That being said if I begin to ramble, please bear with me as it is one of the ways I release sound so that my reserves don't build up too much for me to handle. Next question, please. How did you ...
He was born a tool, bred to be the best, and the strongest magician to ever live. Centuries of research, forced marriages, and constant training had made him what he is today. His name was Kax. He has the build of a half-orc, the lifespan of an elf, the magical potential of a mermaid, the magical flow of an elemental sorcerer, the cleverness of a halfling, and the loyalty of a dwarf. Kax's daily routine was pretty simple: wake up, train, shower, eat, train, get briefed on an upcoming mission, prepare for the mission, eat, continue prepping o...
I have always liked watching movies and shows because I hated reading even to this day. This is ironic because now here I am writing stories that I hope one day become shows and movies. So how did I get into writing and what inspires my stories? Funny enough the answer lies in a church camp of all places. The camp was Blue Lake (or something like that, I forgot) and there was an RPG thing there. One of my friends (who I now consider my best friend) also signed up because he was a huge DND nerd and thought it would be similar to it. So we get...
