Spook & Spice: Roots of Wisdom
High bookshelf towers made of marble lined her path through the ancient library of Gardyan. They weren’t so much a single complex, but the realm’s three major archives connected via portal magic in a timeless space created by the first arch mages. Nemesava’s archive formed a majestic building within it, carved into a huge vault branching off the Nether Caverns, deep into the heart of Azwood. Although its wings extended far below the ground, its upper sections appeared like op

Spook & Spice: Her Favourite
The animalis is not so much a feral shapeshift as it is the manifestation of the most primal instincts and urges within one’s soul. And Gardyan’s species mastered the symbiosis with these impulses like nobody else beyond the veil. That a realm of demigods inherited such animalistic traits from their divine progenitors proves that even deities are not immune to what can easily be deemed the most archaic nature of living beings—and Gardyan's men were the most susceptible. It w

Update on Sign of the Raven: Phase II
It's been a while since the last update. But writing and proofreading a fantasy novel takes time. In the past few months, there have been great efforts to bring out the manuscript's full potential, and Phase II has now officially been launched.

World Building with AI
While my writing has always been and always will be my own, the visuals for Legend of Gardyan are the product of sophisticated AI sessions. Everyone knows that I was very critical towards this technology when it first became a thing. After all, it was threatening my livelihood as a professional writer. Entire art sectors see their environment drastically changing due to artificial intelligence, and not every development is to anticipate. By this, I still stand. However, I wan

Sign of the Raven: Prelude
Might and wisdom are like two ravens. They always come as a pair. If you fail to exert one with caution, the other one will teach you restraint. That’s what her uncle always used to tell her before he passed away. His ring weighed heavy in her hands as steady eyes fled across the waves, chasing after those small dinghies. Hastily rowing as much distance as possible between themselves and the giant ship, they soon shrunk to tiny little dots on the liquid horizon. Sun was setti

Chapter 17: Masters of the Draq'enar
If there was one person to whom Radu owed his undisputed place within the ranks of Raji’Rav, it was Master Zakane. The swordmaster was closer to the Raven Blades than any other Raji’Draq. Even though he himself was indebted to the Blood Blades, he still functioned as the mission leader of the assassins. An assignment not authorized by him was not conducted by the order. And his recommendation was a guarantee of safe admission to the clan for every aspirant. For this reason, h

Lunar Letters: To my Son, the Raven Prince
Don’t move, although you burn for it. I shall take the next step on your behalf. Don’t hate, although you are entitled to. I shall unleash your wrath instead. Whatever poison snakes may spit on your brother’s name, don’t be provoked. I shall cut their tongues while they still feed upon your pain.

Chapter 7: Nightingale, the Brave
After the exertions of the previous night, Aaron's cure lay between the legs of his beloved. With sadness, both had attended the funeral rites and handed over the murdered members of their household to the sacred flame. It was a depressing farewell, even if the night meant a victorious hunt for the rangers. Adra maintained close relationships with most of the deceased. They had been a part of her life since childhood and were like family. Her husband had the greatest difficul

Chapter 6: The Raven and the Owl
His father had disappeared weeks ago when she appeared on the doorstep of his parents’ house. If one could’ve called the shack a house at all. It was a shabby little wooden hut in the green foothills of the Southern Carpathians, that had been falling into disrepair for decades along the course of the Arges River. Why his parents had decided to raise their son on this godforsaken piece of land was a mystery to the boy. The soil was not particularly fertile and difficult to cul

Chapter 5: A Scent of Fear
Blood moon rites in the Planes of Redbranch were different from those around Rubinburgh. They were more unspoilt and rougher around the edges, just like the inhabitants and their land itself. Rayan’s utmost western region was known for its vast meadows of golden heather and bronze broom, culminating in the lush maple groves of Redbranch Forest in the north and Azwood’s turquoise-purple border forests in the south. Some considered the valleys of Dragon Peaks but a large glade

Chapter 4: Mistresses of Nathum
The conversation with matriarch Aronya was not very exhilarating. She did not appreciate her brother behaving improperly for the likes of his rank. And because she held Arayon personally accountable for the events in the Draq'enar, he got to hear some awful lot from her. He was lucky that she was his cousin. One out of two reasons saving him from major punishment procedures. Besides, there were far more pressing issues to discuss, which is why she refrained from consequences.

I shall avenge this missed hunt for her so rare compliance. And she will beg for retribution, don’t deny it. Though every time she flees.
