Chapter 3: The Games People Play
Kendrick was not as poor tempered as everyone seemed to be expecting when he finally rose. Being a little hung over seemed to keep him in a calmer state. As he ate, the guys packed up the rest of the things […]

Chapter 2: The Long Hard Journey Begins
The loading process took well over an hour, especially with that annoying kid up on the balcony constantly barking contrary orders. Kobe was pleased that he was able to avoid being seen. As long as I can make sure we […]

I decided to start posting stories to my blog. At least ones that are related to my games in some way, especially The Land of Karn.

An unfortunate side-effect of having a new job is the amount of energy and work it takes up. Even when it’s not a new job, but your long standing one, it can take up a lot o time and energy. Add the other things in your life that you have to take care, especially if […]
