This is truncated from a letter I wrote early on in my international adventures. About an opportunity I had to try to twist the system for a good cause by lying and how I wrestled through that decision at the time. --- The letter I had been waiting for, to explain why I needed an … Continue reading Integrity Challenge part 1

Argentum’s Source
So that was Argentum's Source 🙂 The first installment of Argentum's Song. I really hoped you enjoyed it. The next section, Argentum's Price, still needs one more pass through before I'd be happy showing it to the world. Where Source takes place mostly in the wilds, Price takes place mostly in Pheonton working through the politics of the gearpunk guilds … Continue reading Argentum’s Source
Epilogue (Argentum’s Song – PG)
Epilogue Claude rode back into the clearing, things were as he expected them to be. He dismounted and started helping Sven with the pyres. Argent joined them in the task but far enough away that they had a bit of privacy. He build a decent pyre over the Weir the girl had killed. That took … Continue reading Epilogue (Argentum’s Song – PG)
31e (Argentum’s Song – PG)
Argent didn't even try to stop the tears of relief that flowed steadily down his face. Sven looked questioningly to his commander. “Claude, ride with me!” The two horses rushed away. Soon their hooves could be heard galloping down the trail. Sven turned back to where Argent had inserted himself in front of Martha with … Continue reading 31e (Argentum’s Song – PG)
31d (Argentum’s Song – PG)
Martha shook her head. “It's just a different language. I heard it once in the capital with people who looked similar … their faces I mean. I think maybe they were originally turned far from here. They just don't understand you.” “Exactly! Turned beasts who don't understand. The oath only works if you take it … Continue reading 31d (Argentum’s Song – PG)
31c (Argentum’s Song – PG)
Argent blinked the memories out of his eyes and half lowered the flute from his mouth. “Don't stop … for the love of Ferus don't stop! I had almost worked up the nerve to end this thing, don't let it recover.” Argent drew a breath and picked up the song, fully present this time. Martha … Continue reading 31c (Argentum’s Song – PG)
31b (Argentum’s Song – PG)
--- Argent knelt in the warren. The walls were alight with the glow of Argentum. Veins of it latticed through the stone walls, roof and floor of the chamber. It was hard to draw breath through the the quiet sobbing of lungs. He had never felt such love! Are you willing to sacrifice? “Anything” Do … Continue reading 31b (Argentum’s Song – PG)

31a (Argentum’s Song – PG)
Chapter Thirty One “For the glory of Ferus!” A distant part of Argent regestered Bildad's call and horn as help on the way, but he maintained his focus on trying to get Simon into the tree beside him. A brute grabbed onto Simon's body, sinking it's fangs into his calf and added it's weight to … Continue reading 31a (Argentum’s Song – PG)
