"I Choose You"
Anybody who knows me in real life knows one of my all-time favorite fantasy settings is the world of Pokemon. I've been in love with the series since the original Pokemon games of Red and Blue and the anime, way back when I was a little kid. I think I originally got the Blue version while my older brother got Red, but I later got Yellow. Then, for the second generation, I'm absolutely sure I got all three of Gold, Silver, and Crystal. The third generation was when I got Sapphire, and the fourth generation I got Platinum. For the fifth-generation games, I chose the White Versions for both the first game and the sequel, mainly because I thought Zekrom was cooler. In the sixth generation, I went with the Y version. The Sun version was my generation seven game. Finally, for generation 8 of a now twenty-five-year-old franchise, I chose Shield.

Thank You For Choosing Grocery Pickup
With the advent of technology these days, some people don't really understand how time-consuming grocery shopping can actually be. Especially now, since due to the global pandemic known as COVID, we're constantly reminded to be safe and practice social distancing, wear masks, the works. Does this always work? Well, no... but I digress, I've gotten off-topic, and I'm sorry.

Nights of Dragons and Genies
The territory of Raithwall was the most southern peninsula of the continent, past the Raithwall Mountain Range. The mountains were too high for most aviary species to safely fly over, cursed with a near-endless blizzard for most of the year… save for the three months past the New Cachou Moon, when the blizzard let up just enough for most safe flights through the mountain range. Otherwise, you’d have to travel by foot through the monster-infested Bloodfang Canyon just to get to and from Raithwall… provided that either the Waning Scalieon Moon had not yet given way to the New Lampras Moon, which would cause the pass to fill with a hazardous snow-fall.

The Full Moon of Cachou
Of the three moons that circled Skyeria, the green moon of Cachou was considered "the Moon of All". Cachou, back when he was a god, was a green-furred giant with a tail as long as the night sky. He was the Creator who formed the world of Skyeria, after all, enwrapping the world in a loving, natural embrace, bending the elements unleashed by Scalieon into a viable shape, and creating the various ecosystems that were on the surface. He then, with a final green light and some help from Lampras, created the various sentient species to populate the world.

Nights of Dragons and Genies: Chapter 2
The continent of Orobia, in the center of the map of Skyeria, was a rather warm climate. Certainly warmer than the northeastern continent of Odiosera, what with the desert that made up a large part of the continent. However, there were still plenty of signs of green in the Orobian desert. It was thanks to the work of the five tribes of genies--humanoid spirits that called Orobia and its sister continent Escen their home: the masters of the skies known as the djinn, the rulers of the waters the marid, the sturdy and strong earth-molders called the dao, the masters of flame called the ifrit, and the natural hearted walkers of nature called the nasna.

A Little Genie's First Flower
Way back before I first gained the title "Harvest Genie"--something I'm very proud of--I had to start somewhere. Get inspired by something to figure out the answer to a question every genie asks themselves at some point: "What kind of genie do I want to be?"

Nights of Dragons and Genies: Chapter 1
The town of Witherbrand was quite a close-knit community. Despite the numerous species that lived there--from the versatile humans to the aged and experienced elves, to the calm and passive halflings and the boisterous orcs, even the sharp gnomes and the ever-curious goblins, Witherbrand was a very blended town. It wasn't really famous for a lot, but it had representatives of almost every race on the continent of Odiosera.

Severance Package
When the dragons of Craigheight came to raid the Raithwall Peninsula, they expected to find the Raithwall tribe to be there, either willing to surrender and join their horde--their only hope for survival--or prepared to fight in a vain attempt to keep their territory--the preferred option for some of Craigheight's greatest warriors. The truth of the matter, the Raithwall tribe surrendering would have been anti-climatic, and the Craigheights might want to butcher them all for their cowardice. If they fought back, it would have been at least with a warrior's dignity that they were slain.
