A million schemes burst out from the grave and scuttle wide across a landscape of concrete and bone, to spread their webs between the unlives of the undead. Look out, zombie girls! You're it.

Chapter turns to steel and glass, giggling in the starlight, sparse and harsh.

Necroepilogos, polymechanus - 17.1

A grave lies open, coffin lid long-shattered. A worm walks free, no longer wrapped in ensoiled souls, but loose once more upon the world. Look out, you zombie girls. Here she comes.

Maidens of the Fall, Arc 2, Lunacy, Chapter 3

Chapter chews on sliced banana and whole green grapes, chomping down a fruitful treat, huddled in the lee of a forgotten abode, watched by long-dead eyes.

Necroepilogos, deluge - 16.11

Do immortal and infinite worms dream of eternal sheep? Does the worm sleep at all, or has it lain awake in the dark all this time, blaming itself for the night?

Maidens of the Fall, Arc 2, Lunacy, Chapter 2

Chapter scrambles up the volcanic shore, spitting seawater and shedding ocean-skin, growing claws anew to walk the wailing soil.

What secrets lurk in worm-rotten hearts? What has the meat of eternity become, hidden away in the festering dark? Pull back the veil, zombie girls! And hope there's more than ashes left beneath the veneer.

Maidens of the Fall, arc 1+2, chapters 3-5

Chapters crawl from the black soil between the cities, running wild on high heath and low fen and the byways of the dripping woods, trailing the fog of dreams in their ragged wake.

Maidens of the Fall, chapters 1 + 2

Launch post!!! New story! Story story story!

Ahem.

I have no idea what to say here. I've been so incredibly excited to finally reveal this story to everybody, and now it's actually happening. I hope you all enjoy these first two chapters just as much as I have enjoyed writing them! Of course, I can't say anything about the story itself just yet, not until you've actually started reading the thing.

So, without further ado, here are the first two chapters, available to all rea...

November 13th Necroepilogos chapter will be delayed by one week — but, readers will get an extra chapter in the future.

Hello everyone! I’ll try to keep this short.

tl;dr version: Due to a very silly scheduling screw-up on my part, I’m going to delay this week’s Necroepilogos chapter, even though I really don’t want to do so. However! To make up for this, sometime in the next few weeks, I will publish two Necroepilogos chapters at once.

That’s pretty much it! I’m fine, nothing is wrong behind the scenes, please don’t worry.

If you want a longer...

Necroepilogos, deluge - 16.9

Worms in the earth and the earth full of worms; what meat does the graveworm feast upon? The corpse of the earth, swarming with the dead, of course.

Necroepilogos, deluge - 16.8

Some Necromancers don't have time for zombie shenanigans, they just want to do the job and get out; and then there's Lykke, who can't get enough of Elpida's fists.

Maidens of the Fall, announcement post!

Octavia Carter hates magical girls.

Too bad for her. Now she’s one of them.

Octavia blames magical girls for the collateral damage that killed her parents and left her disabled. She resents their power as figureheads of the state, beyond reproach, beyond revenge. She hates their necessity; magical girls, young women chosen by the Dream-Gods of Earth, are the only ones who can...

Half a league, half a league, half a league onward. But Pheiri's not six hundred, and he's the one with the cannons. As the lady said, little brother; run that Necromancer over!

Necroepilogos, deluge - 16.6

A voice from the ruins, a call from the dark, a bumping in the universal night. Do zombie girls dare answer, shouting back into the unknown? Or is it better to stay quiet and hide from the hunters beyond?

Zombie girls are off to the races! Keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. Wait for the starting gun in three, two, one, go! Vroom vroom vroom. We all know Pheiri's got the best engines around, right? Where's the competition?
