I wrote a little something

<r>Hi guys, been ages since I was here but just wanted to share a little of what I've been doing.<br/> <br/> Just finished writing a story and have put it up as a free to download PDF for anyone interested.

The Monk and His Temple

<r>As the blows crashing into the creatures they snarled and drew back. Retreating a step, their blades touched against the ground and they glanced back at the old man. One of them was bleeding, a deep gash in his arm spilling warm blood over the tiles, the other looked panicked. It was becoming cle...

<r>Sigh. Maya had only said a couple of words, but that was enough to set Aimi off apparently. It sounded like she had a good eye, enough to properly take in the situation and the strangeness of it all. She was happy to blurt it all out of course and such frankness wasn’t always the best idea for a ...

<r>There was another clunk and smash as Maya tried to jam another piece of detached gear into the axel of the cart. She had a screwdriver in one hand and an unhelpfully large mallet in the other, which she was making good use of. The wheel itself sat a few feet away, unmoved from when it had rolled ...

<r>There wasn’t much to disturb the slight fluttering of the wind on the outskirts of Iwagakure. The dense fields of corn sometimes caught the touch of the wind and gently shook in reply, but even that didn’t leave much of a sound in the old fields. Occasionally the farmers would come to check their...
