The Admiral (Fitzwallace)

I've seen the comments about his Class choice and it's teased a little in this Chapter. It's not my intention to unnecessarily drag it out. You will get his full choices by Friday, just be patient.

Clearing the area took time. Prepping it for the Formations did as well. The undertaking wasn't small and I wasn't alone in setting it up.
I was far from the only one who could create Formations and a fe...

Marcus and I walked around the recently cleared area and checked it over one more time. When I had asked the man where he wanted me to build the Communication Formation, I hadn't expected him to choose here. 2025-05-08 21:17:32 +0000 UTC View Post

My fingers traced out the tiny Runes upon the Mana Crystal in yet another attempt to create our very own Message Stone. My attempts had all ended in failure, but it wasn't as frustrating as one might think. 2025-05-06 21:18:33 +0000 UTC View Post
