-- Storm - Amity - Earth time: 2102 --
I’ve decided to write a journal of my life to date.
I’ve taken a bit of author’s licence and collected the narratives from others to help put the last two years in context. This first chapter is a summary of the first year here as it was covered more in depth in my previous diaries. The rest is about the second year in my new home. Since we will soon start a new year, it seems a good time to do it.
Much of what has happened since I arrived on the planet Amity two years ago (Amity time) ago, revolved around completing the prophecy below.
“To make the five lands one,
So the people can again be one,
Five feats must be done,
The devil wizards must be defeated for one.
The Starman must defeat the cursed one,
The healer must cleanse the children of the sun,
The man of light must declare his love of one,
The dark man must not turn and run.
When the storm is done,
The people will again be one,
Their King to come,
The Gods will, will be done.”
In the beginning.
The first eleven months of my life in Amity time has been anything but normal. I’m trying to get it into perspective, so I can see my way forward. For those reading my story afresh:
I was named Grey Green at birth. I was born in Brisbane, Australia and on the planet that is called Earth, in its year, 2001. I’m known as Lord Wizard Storm here or just Storm, to my friends. Storm was a nickname I earned early in life due to my eyes being shades of green to grey depending on my mood.
I keep my hair short, and it is a reddish nutmeg colour. I’m close to 2m tall and have a solid but not bulky build for my height. My complexion is what I call a light olive. I tan darker rather than burn and don’t have any freckles. I am of mixed heritage of many nations on Earth but call myself an Australian.
In the year 2036 Earth time, I went on holidays to Mt Mulu in Malaysia. At the time, I was thirty-five and worked as a Trade Trainer I specialised in several building trades including Electrical, Construction and Boiler-making.
Before I left Brisbane to go on holidays, I found a strange metal box buried in the bottom of a box of books I had bought at a market stall from the estate of a deceased lady. Inside the metal box were four items, a diadem, a ring, a medallion on a platinum chain and what I thought of as a baton made of metal.
The baton was a tube that was about 25cm long and had a round cut gem in one end. It was 25mm thick at its thickest end and slightly narrower at the other end. When activated it extended into a stave that was 1.8m in length. It can be used at any length in between.
The bling or jewellery if you prefer was different in that it had four different gems on the diadem and the ring. A large, light green and yellow coloured crystal was in the middle. I’ve since learned it’s called a Quaz crystal. An emerald and an opal were mounted on one side of this crystal. A ruby and an amethyst were on the other side.
The medallion had four symbols etched on it. There was a hill on top, a leaf on one side, and a flaming torch on the other and what looked like a cloud on the bottom. On the back was an inscription that read, ‘I learn to serve’. I interpreted the word underneath this quote as, ‘Builder’.
The information wasn’t written in a language I’d ever seen before, but I could read and comprehend it when I held the medallion. Once I had put the bling on, I knew that it had an effect on me, as I felt very different. I felt a new energy inside of me that I didn’t understand.
I also found that amongst the books in the box, was a special book written in two languages that I could now read. I was shocked to learn that I had put on the items that belonged to an entity called a Builder Mage. I had become a wielder of magic, like in the myths and legends of old. The baton was, in fact, my wand and the book, my spell book.
Due to four casual relationships, in the months just before I left Earth, I managed to impregnate four women. This was an achievement in itself. Before putting on the bling, I had been classified as having a very low sperm count and had little hope of siring children.
In the year 2032, we had two devastating viruses sweep the world. One was a flu type virus and the second that was attached to it affected human fertility. Many of us didn’t even realise we contracted the second, as it was released by us catching the first virus.
The viruses killed off over one percent of the general world population including about thirty percent of males over sixty. Its legacy left most of the rest of the male population with sperm counts less than half of what was considered normal before.
Added to this, the female fertility cycle was also altered and most women now only ovulated between three to six times in a year. People had to start planning to have children and accidental pregnancies, caused by males fucking anything with a cunnie, were much rarer unless the woman was in season.
Women also developed a special scent when they were ovulating, which many males could detect. A secondary side effect after the virus was that in the four years before I left Earth, women were also birthing twice as many females to male children.
I later learnt that I had left two sons and two daughters behind to four different women. I knew the women were in season, and that I had indeed left them pregnant. In each case, I got the impression from the women they desperately desired to have a child.
I still wished I’d not left my children behind without them ever knowing me. I’d not believed it was possible for me to be a father for so long that when I realised that they were pregnant, I had planned to try to spend some time in my children’s lives even though I didn’t love their mothers.
I didn’t intentionally leave Earth. I had a run in with a couple of thugs while caving at Mt Mulu. In my attempt to avoid them, I ended up activating what I was to learn was called a Transportation Ring or Portal in a cavern I had found when trying to escape the men.
The portal dropped me onto a new planet that I later learnt was called Amity. The people in Amity were at a similar technological development as Earth was in the late Iron Age to early Industrial Era. They were just starting to redevelop heavy machinery and complex electrical systems. Oddly, they didn’t have a form of car and still used carts and horses or rather lankys, as they call them here.
I learnt, not long after my arrival, that a Mage Davin had been stuck on this planet for a hundred years and he had been trying to help the people on the continent Galina regain their lost civilisation. His specialities were Nature and Energy, and he had improved farming techniques where he could.
The people of Amity had apparently been more advanced in technology before a war they had more than two thousand years earlier. Some of the old technology did still exist. It was often noticeable to me more by the lack of other technologies that I had accepted as normal on Earth. The use of magic by many also gave a warped perspective of their advancements in some fields but little in others.
The war had broken out between corrupted wizards and good wizards that oversaw the development and health of the people. The ancestors of the wizards and most of the people, who lived here, had come to this planet many more thousands of years before.
No one was sure when and in my first year here I’ve not quite worked it out as a fact. The records I’d obtained were very sketchy in this regard. Mage Davin believed that people like him might have come here as far back as seventy thousand years before. Since Sarah agrees, I’ll consider it a fact.
I have learnt that the people here had developed to different levels of technology, and had then regressed several times, due to other wars, times with no wizards to guide them and natural disasters.
Davin believed the same people that he was descended from had brought magic to this planet. Davin’s diaries indicated the collective races of a planetary system called Keltria had colonised this planet as well as Earth at around about that time. He was under the impression that their home solar system had been in trouble and the Keltrians had to flee.
The Keltrians had, in his opinion, based on calculations and strange trips between different planets in his lifetime, travelled far in the galaxy looking for suitable worlds. They had terraformed where required as they went so the people from home could move to new worlds. Amity and Earth were but two such worlds.
Davin’s diaries indicated that he had ended up on Amity when trying to get back to a planet he called Utopia, after the last time he had been on Earth. Apparently, the wizards and magical people on Earth were being persecuted, and they had moved to Utopia in around about 500BC in my Earth timescale.
He mentioned that the wizards of his decad, had broken a contract with the other magical races and as punishment, they had been stripped of their wizard’s bling and sent back to Earth. He had managed to locate a mage box he had hidden on Earth before he left. It was like the one I had found but with fewer gems.
The mage boxes were classed as lesser boxes magically. They were more tolerant of errors than a full wizard’s box like the one that Davin had previously had. If a wizard is stripped of or takes off their bling, they tend to go mad unless they can find another magical item to accept them.
Ever since Davin’s eviction from Utopia, he had been trying to go back to there, to atone for his sins. When David James came here from Earth, with his Grandteli wife, Kelli, and their delectable daughter, Sarah, they confirmed that Davin was correct.
I was amazed to learn that Kelli had in fact been born on Earth, more than seventy thousand years before my birth. Her parents had been part of one of the exploration teams that left Keltria on what they call a wheelship to find new worlds.
David said that he came from thirty-six years into my future on Earth. In the year 2072, he had been on a mission to build a settlement on Mars. While attempting to avoid a meteor shower when he was orbiting Mars, he had inadvertently created a wormhole. He had been sent back into Earth’s past where Kelli, her family and the wheelship Zara had been at the time.
He and Kelli had some interesting adventures before they finally made it to Amity.
Magic.
While investigating where I was, and how I could get home, I found the wizard’s box that Davin had mentioned, and it had opened for me. It was a special box in that the person, whom it claimed, was called a Lord Wizard. Davin hadn’t been able to claim the box.
Its book box had been hidden in a secret cavern near the room in which the Transportation Ring was located. Davin hadn’t been able to locate the room due to the spells that protected it. Only the claimant of the Lord’s box could.
The boxes which hold the items that can claim people to be their wizards are a bit strange. You can put a lot more in them than you should be able to, for one thing. The book box held the spell books and diaries of past wizards who had previously worn the magical items as well as other junk they had dropped in them.
The magical items also have an entity attached to them which guides the wizard to do good deeds. A Wizard is supposed to help the people that he or she serves to better their lives. A Wizard can’t talk with an entity, but you can communicate with your thoughts, and the entity can impress its feelings onto the Wizard.
As the Lord Wizard of a decad (ten wizards), I could have four full wizards, and we five wizards could then each claim an apprentice to complete the set. Under us were the mages or druids, and then under them were novices or trainees.
The number of and the different types of gems, and symbols on the bling denotes the type of magic the wearer wields best and their strengths. A Lord or a Duke as they are known in some places, like me, have all six gems on their diadems and rings, and all six power symbols on their medallions.
The Keltrian races, the Genteli and Grandteli preferred the decad type of wizard’s structure. A Pix set of wizards is called a sextet. They have five gems and symbols on their bling, and they are paired with one of the other wizards in their set. The partner has the gem that they are missing. They are called High Wizards or Marquesses.
I’ve since learnt there are also Queens and Empresses. They too have all six gems for the different disciplines, and some have two different gems for their disciplines, Empresses in particular.
A full Wizard or Earl has five gems, and symbols similar to a High Wizard or but theirs are a little smaller. The apprentices or Viscounts have four gems and their symbols. A High Mage can also have four gems and sit just under apprentices in terms of strength. Many cities and small nations here are controlled by these individuals.
High Mages or Viscounts had a greater chance to be selected by a higher level magical box if the owner of a wizard’s box died. Mages or druids have three gems and are the next most common set. Many officials are called Barons if they oversaw small city-states, and teachers of magic have at least a mages set.
Novices or trainees had one or two gems on their bling. All magical users had the special Quaz crystals on their bling, as they were repositories for storing magical energy. I later learnt that the special crystals in the bling did a lot more than this.
They also make great batteries too, as they could store electrical energy too. They could also be used for lighting as they were able to emit excess energy in this form. They will also sustain a spell for as long as they have access to an external energy source.
I also learnt that on Amity where I lived, the magicians who were called druids and trainees didn’t have a full magician’s box. Trainees only had one main item, a ring or a medallion with only one or two gems. Druids more often than not needed to have both items and at least two gems in both, but not necessarily the same gems.
In many places, those few with three gems were considered High Druids. I later learnt that was erroneous on their part as there were still four gem High Mage sets in existence on Amity. Some of the medallions here on Galena also had the gems added with the symbols of power to make them stronger.
Magical finger-rings were the most common items. The lower order magicians here were not as powerful as I believed people with full magical boxes like the mage box I had when I came to Amity.
Interestingly, the wand was an item that they didn’t have, and diadems were rare on the continents, Galina where I was based, Saran to the east and Palatine in the southern hemisphere between Galina and Saran. [See map in preface]
Diadems were more common on the continents, Orient to my west and Federation that was between Galina and Orion in the southern hemisphere. The race called Shifters who were an offshoot of the Genteli particularly liked diadems.
It was after David joined me on Amity that I also learnt that the race from Keltria called the Pix formed a different combination of wizards that they called a sextet. The Pix were considered the oldest magical race. Prols who were the other old race didn’t seem as inclined to wear magic items, although, they did tend to have innate Earth and Nature magics.
The Pix didn’t have a Lord or apprentices in their sextet. They were paired with their traits, and their partner was always missing a gem the other had. When working in their pairs or any combination of more, they were very powerful wizards.
A sextet of wizards can take down a Lord Wizard or even their Queen if they need too. Apparently, I needed my full decad to take a bad Queen out of play. Sara said it was very rare in the Keltrian history of many millions of years for a Queen to go bad.
It was much later that I learnt the pairing in a Pix set wasn’t always the same in a set, but all six traits were represented. This trait was also the name attached to that High Wizard. We seemed more hodgepodge in this respect since there were ten of us. Different decads had some traits with higher representations than others did. It depended on who made the set.
Magic users have traits that link to six main attributes. Each attribute has a corresponding gem and a symbol, and certain professions tend to have this ability. Many professions are better served by having a combination of at least two traits. The basic traits are:
Lore - diamonds or aquamarines - a book symbol - associated with retrieval and retaining of information (E.g. scholars, teachers, scientists, managers.)
Energy - rubies or sapphires - a flaming torch symbol - connected to realigning base elements and energy fields (E.g. electricians, navigators, users of light and magnetic energies, and users of fire and heat.)
Physics - amethysts or moonstones - a symbol that looks like wind or a cloud - associated with manipulation & shaping of liquids and gasses (E.g. weather mages, sailors, millers, glass blowers, wine makers and water purification).
Nature - opal or agates - a leaf or tree symbol - associated with manipulating plants, animals and people. This is the most common sort of magic user in the lower orders. Some are stronger with dealing with animals, others with plants and others humans. (E.g. farmers, ranchers, weavers, carpenters, nurturers and medical professions.)
Psychic - topazes or special quartz-based crystals (rose, tangerines) - an eye symbol - use mental and metaphysical energies. This is the least common trait in the lower orders and is often associated with Lore and/or Nature, (E.g. medical professionals, leaders and teachers).
Earth - emeralds or turquoises - a hill symbol - related to manipulation of base elements, minerals and other inanimate substances it’s often linked with Physics or Energy traits, (E.g. builders, potters, metal workers and gardeners).
Decad wizards may also have different metals assigned to them. Platinum is often associated with the Lord Wizard. Other prime metals such as gold, silver, iron, copper, zinc, tin, cobalt and aluminium, and their various alloys are commonly used.
I was learning that being a wizard or a magician, could be a complicated business.
My Family.
After my arrival on Amity, I established myself in the town of Iron Hills. Iron Hills is about 40km inland from Trenton, which is currently the largest city on the east coast of Galina. Iron Hills exists on the hillside outside the cavern that holds the Ring to which I was transported.
The caverns can even be accessed from my house if you can find the secret entrance. Once I had my home base set up, I went looking for the missing members of my decad of wizards, and their missing magical boxes. I felt compelled to do this and have had quite a few adventures on the way as I described in my earlier diaries.
I now have a daughter Sky, Kim is my husband, and our two wives are Lindell and Sarah. I met and married Kim and Lindell in Iron Hills. Sky is my daughter with Lindell. My beautiful Lindell is a Psychic Mage and my anchor. Where Lindell is, is home.
Kim is my apprentice wizard. Kim’s traits are dominantly Lore and Physics. You may think it’s strange for a man who has never been interested in men as sexual partners to have a husband. To be honest, to date, I still don’t wish to be with any other man, only Kim, I think the entities have a lot to do with it.
Kim is a very important part of my life, and I love him and need him as much as I do my two wonderful wives. I’ve learnt that having partners of both sexes is common for people who wear wizard’s bling, especially for full wizards and Lord Wizards.
I can’t say I understand why but I just know that Kim holds a part of my soul and I’d not be complete without him. Being sexually intimate with Kim has its own rewards, and I do enjoy making love to, cuddling and just being with him.
Our second wife, Sarah, is unusual. She wasn’t gestated and born in the normal sense of human birth. She was created by a being called a Controller, named Zara. Zara controls a Keltrian wheelship or a spaceship to me.
A wheelship has a huge toroidal ring that rotates around a central access that holds the main engines. The ring can split into sixteen sections if the ship is damaged. They can travel at sub-light speeds and can even jump through space to another system if another ship has established a portal in a system for them to lock onto. This is how they advanced through the galaxy to our side of it.
Zara had used DNA from David and Kelli and included some of her own, to form Sarah. Her addition gives Sarah the ability to store everything she learns and collects from her senses, as data into within the fabric of her bones. She uses them like computer hard-drives and can recall anything she knows. It can be a bit intimidating at times to a mere mortal and even this Lord Wizard, to contemplate just what she does know.
You may consider Sarah as my partner, more so than Kim and Lindell, as she is the one most often seen with me. Kim and Lindell are home bodies and Sarah, and I have a need to go solve other people’s problems. Sarah has a medallion and a ring, and she is the repository of knowledge of our outfit.
We, however, both consider Lindell and Kim as part of us, and they are both very much needed by us.
My search.
During my search for my fellow wizards, Lindell, Kim and the Druids Guild in Trenton helped me rescue a prince called Ulu and some of his people. They had been captured by slavers to be sold as pleasure slaves. I realised Ulu was one of my missing wizards when I touched him.
He is a little shorter than I am, and he reminded me of people we call Africans on Earth having similar features. As Davin had indicated, many of Ulu’s people had darker skin tones and broader features. Galinians were more Anglo-Saxon, Palatinians were more Eastern Europe and Orientals more Asian. There were plenty of variations in between due to mixing with the Keltrian races.
We took Ulu and his people back to his continent called Saran after we rescued Kim’s box from a corrupt wizard in Trenton. I had become aware that some of the magical bling in Trenton that was worn by some people had been corrupted. I’d hoped that once we had dispatched Lord Gazan who had Kim’s apprentice’s box, that would be the end of them, but it wasn’t.
After we had arrived in Saran, we’d found that Ulu’s people had an issue with some of the people from Palatine, the continent to Saran’s south-west. They had established an outpost on Saran on the southern point that was called Spur. They were taking Ulu’s people to use as slaves.
Prime Bishop Richard of Palatine had corrupted one of the other apprentice wizard’s boxes. He was using a form of coercion to control the magical people of Palatine similar to the way Lord Gazan had been operating in Trenton.
If the men with magical abilities didn’t join him and become priests, he had them killed. He particularly didn’t like women with magical abilities. He enjoyed degrading and killing them. He was using his priests to control the population. He was a really nasty piece of work.
Richard believed there were magical boxes in Saran and he had sent his people to destroy them. One of the men he had coerced to do this was Prince Alexus. After we stopped the Palatines from killing Ulu’s people, Druid Penny Gold who had accompanied us from Trenton, took a fancy to Alexus.
I was delighted to find that I’d identified my third set of wizards. For some reason, Penny’s box was with Ulu and Selene’s boxes in Golden City. We believed Richard had Alexus’ box and later I sent Selene’s sister, Selwyn, and a very special young man called Kale to go help Penny and Alexus to retrieve it.
The trip to Saran didn’t end up as well as I hoped. Ulu’s wife at the time, Yalla, became jealous of one of the shapeshifts we met in Golden City when we went to get Ulu’s box. Ulu realised just after he met Selene that she was to be his apprentice wizard.
We spent three full days packing, two days shopping in Brisbane, one in Sydney, two in New York and three in Paris. We also visited about thirty other places in the two weeks as we did a worldwide tour of Earth. The longer stay in Paris was just because Crystal and Pearl wanted to go there at least once and they wanted to hit the fashion shops. Us blokes were outvoted. Apparently, Crystal and Pearl had three votes each to our one. I have a feeling they were trying to hoodwink us, but Mike...
Storm, had his head buried between two very long lovely legs. While he was happily supping on the meal on offer, a very active tongue and a wicked set of lips were doing divine things to his family jewels. He had slept in her room and had woken to her cunnie in his face and her mouth on junior. He pulled her hips down to his wet face again and sucked hard as his hips flexed up. She shuddered and he blew, and she sucked him harder. He grunted into her twitching cunnie and then sucked her...
"Make your presentation to abolish the First Law, Mr. Setton," directed Lord Morehouse. I nodded. "My presentation is fairly straight forward. As you all know, the First Law was established to help prevent the first sign of a long ago prophecy. A prophecy that told of some unknown doom, disaster or change. The Mind Magi of the time took the steps they felt necessary to help, but they could have never foreseen that anyone would willingly or unwillingly go against such a law. It was simple,...
-- Earth time: 2078-- “Oh, fuck! Oh, fuck!” I cussed. As soon as I felt that weird feeling, I knew the damn book had sent me home. Daniel looked at me in surprise. He frowned at me. I sighed and sat up. I then picked him up, and balanced my son on my hip I walked over the Lectern. “Send me back immediately,” I demanded. “I’m sorry, but I can’t do that. I’ve lost contact with the portal you originated from. You look familiar. Let me see. Oh! This is very strange. According to my records,...
-- Crystal -- I awoke depressed. Another day to get through. I rolled out of Kegan’s arms and moved over so I could flop back onto my back. I thought about Vaughn and Harmony. It has been nearly three months since my portal book said he had connected to a portal on another planet. He has tried to send me there, but for some reason, the portal on the other side refuses to let him send me. ‘I didn’t meet protocols’, were the replies that Vaughn got. He even connected to the portal on...
I was speechless when Crystal walked in to say that Raina and the babies were fine. She was the woman in the crystal ball. I guess Zara had known that she was to be my paramour. But I think something did change. I don’t believe Zara saw me as an Empress in the other version of our future. I drank in Crystal’s beauty and felt myself harden at the sight of her. I knew she was still to be mine in this version of reality. I had no problem with that at all. I glanced at Storm’s other three...
I looked at the camera. Seven months old, Devin stood on my right thigh, and his brother Quin stood on my left with my arms supporting them. Sky sat cross-legged across on my lap and leant against me. Kim was at my right shoulder with his right arm around Sarah. Beside him was Lindell her arm around him and Bonny. Raina fussed and finally said she had a lovely picture. Sky scrambled down to run to her big sister and see the results. Sarah bent and kissed me and claimed Devin while Bonny...
I’ve decided the last few chapters of this book should be Mikal’s summary. Of all of us, he has probably had the most interesting year. While a lot has happened to me too, I think the others have summed up my major achievements in their way. I know that I’m a very content man. Being surrounded by the huge loving family that I have managed to gather just makes me an even happier one. I find plenty to keep me occupied and having my kids has also been a major distraction, towards which I’ve...
Note: This story was commissioned by Ultrasound 7 and has allowed me to share it with you. This may contain scenarios and acts that I normally wouldn’t write. There will be a strong sex slave/domination theme. I will keep this from violating any cannon established in the world and I developed the mythology that drives this story. Kurtis – The Forbidden City, The Empire of Shizhuth I panted from the pleasure of pumping my seed into the Serpent Oracle, waiting for her to deliver her prophecy....
“Fuck!” I said aloud. “Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” I was still standing in a Ring. However, it wasn’t the same ring that I had been standing inside of, only moments before. I was in another cavern. This cavern also had a disused look similar to the one I had been in, but it was cleaner and better sealed. I looked up and noticed the crystals were a lot dimmer and there was not as many, as in the other cavern. I had a feeling if I wanted to go home, they would need to be a lot brighter and recharged....
David was checking out the information Carline had given him. With JJ’s help and the new satellites, they had built a comprehensive map of Federation. From what he could determine, the people had spread out around the coasts, radiating out from where the sections of the original starship had landed. Federation was the largest content on the planet. It linked into the Southern pole and then stretched up to the equator. It crossed it in a large, wide chunk of land. Several short, broader...
A runner turned at the homestead. My spouses were coming home. I immediately started tossing out orders, to get the carts on the road and get the herders assembled. I was running around like a clucker with its head cut off. Greta and Edith calmly took over and told me to go. I was on Opal so fast it wasn’t funny. I was pacing the wharf waiting for Captain Hail to tie up his ship so he could drop the planks and I could board. I raced up the plank and stopped dead at the sight of Bea and...
Tom was correct, and we did arrive in Weston just after lunch. He followed Reilly’s directions and ended up pulled up on a nice wide dock over to the southern side of the long bay. It was a little removed from the other docks, but as he explained, they were considered a higher end market area these days. The area had once been a big meat works, which was why they had the separate dock and sale pens for livestock. With the changes in population, the meatworks moved further north as it seemed...
After the fun of entering the Palace compound, we arrived at a courtyard and dismounted. We were then shown through umpteen dozen hallways and rooms, each gaudier than the last, to get to a waiting room. As we walked, I wondered if the King was related to Higgins. He had the same horrible taste in decorations. John and Tony left us in a little alcove to wait. We settled in, as I didn’t expect to be received in any hurry. I was glad we’d had something to eat before we were interrupted. I did...
-- Earth time: 2095-- Where was I? Yes, my first trip to my Island. If I wasn’t nuts before I got here, I was by the time I left. My arrival... -- Earth time: 1100-- I coughed and then vomited again. I dry retched several times and finally sat up as the dizzy sensation abated. I looked around me and found that I was sitting inside a Ring. I knew that it wasn’t the same Ring as the room was also different. This room had curved walls and had a high domed ceiling that was covered in...
-- Storm - Earth time 2102-- Kim and Lindell had decided to come on the trip with Sarah and me. Sarah dropped her shuttle down onto an open paddock near the section of Torus in the old crater. As we disembarked, a man dressed in what I’d call cut down buckskins approached. He was taller than the average here, lean and fit with sable hair tied back off his face. He looked at most as if he was twenty years old. With him was a very shapely woman. She had paler, more honey coloured hair but...
-- Daniel -- I’m surprised by how well Pip and I have learnt to work together. It’s not been an easy task, and we both realise that we still have a lot of work to do and a lot to learn about running a city and a community. The people we rescued have been settling into the city and taking over a lot of the work of rebuilding their lives and new homes. I think the fact that they could spread out a bit sorted out a lot of the animosity between the different factions. Captain Dale has been of...
-- Storm - Amity - Earth time: 2102 -- We were in a right pickle. Daniel and Pip stayed a couple of extra days to help with the clean-up and burying of the dead. Even my other wizards turned up in Nickel City and then teleported to us to help. Ulu even brought Carline and Sharon with him. Carline was Leslie’s only living daughter, and Sharon was Anne’s daughter to a different shifter, called Trip. They were both pretty upset about their mothers dying like they had, as one would expect....
I woke early and crawled out of the bodies piled onto my bed. I still liked about four hours sleep, and I think I had slept so solidly due to utter exhaustion. It had been a very fulfilling night, and my loved ones had worked hard to please me. I showered and dressed and then popped down to the café and grabbed some food and a large pot of tea to get me going. I asked JJ where the ships were, near Saran and Green Island. She pointed out that the ships near Saran were just off the coast. I...
We were sad to leave Bron and his people. Sable was delighted that his dad had become a Lord Wizard. We had a good laugh about the fact that he truly was Lord Bull Bron Horn now. Silver and Rose thought it very fitting, as far as they were concerned he had always acted like a Lord Wizard anyway. I suspected that little would change on Green Island following the upgrades as, the Bulls were an exceptional group of people and led their people by example as it was. Bron said he had no plans to...
November 1st, 1885 The elven city of Quintarra swayed beneath my feet – moving and groaning like Edward Teach’s ship at the high seas. I gripped onto the thin rope that served as the only security as the elven woman Raven led me from the base of the platform leading to the residence of the Silver Lady to the front entrance itself. Raven was, despite her earlier smiles, a woman that seemed to be quite severe in temperament. The earlier flare of sunny disposition had vanished beneath the...
Pansexual Prophecy What Sexual Equality May Augur for the Future By Cal Y. Pygia Because women are physically weaker than men, they are subject to men; to gain a measure of equality, they must act through men; to act through men, they must control men. They control men through men's desire for sex. Sex is a means of controlling another (or others), especially for those who otherwise lack strength or power. For men, sex is often an end unto itself, whereas, for women, sex...
March 26th, 1886 I sat on one of the pews in the First Temple of the Panarii and looked at nothing in particular. There seemed very little point to moving myself from where I sat – and there was no better place to sit and think than here, in the quiet of the temple. The building itself was large and rectangular, with enough room it seemed for the whole city of Caladon to take their seats here to be lectured at. However, other than the sheer size of the place, it remained fairly...

?Well, it's been a month already. Of course I'm going to be impatient.? ?Yeah, and what exactly have you done besides let him know you're accessible?? Tanya made a valid point. Alan sat back on his computer chair and frowned. He'd pulled out all the stops to get his roommate Tom in his clutches; a slutty maid outfit, a makeup artist, and a bet gone awry had done wonders. A sore ass and exhaustion had kept them from round two, and after that... Tom had been avoiding him as much as...
I went for a hike. I’d not been out to the Isa for ages, and you still didn’t have to go far out of town to be in the bush. Most of the area was cattle stations and mine sites. I bummed a lift to the airport with a bloke heading that way from my hotel and then hiked out to the man-made dam they called Lake Moondarra. It was about 14km in, and I had packed my small backpack for the day. Making sure, I had plenty of water in my two belt canteens and steriliser tablets. I had a box of my...
‘Ho-ho, ho-ho, a bussing we will go.’ Actually, I hate buses as much as I hate planes. But they are a necessary evil when you travel. I’d had to bus to a hotel in town for the night. I then bussed to a different airport. I then jumped on my next flight to get to Kuching and then another one to get to the Mulu airport. A friend had organised for me to stay in Mulu Village with a family that he had stayed with previously. From here, I could pretty much do as I wished. I’d organised a couple...
I got up and found the loo. Upon inspection, I decided that it needed to go. I headed downstairs to the better bathroom and used it instead. I even took a quick bath. I put on my clean set of clothes and spruced them up a little, now I knew how. I tightened the waist on the pants and lengthened them a little with the excess material. Then I trimmed some of the excesses out of the shirt by tightening the weave and trimming the material. It looked a higher quality of material now and a better...
The rest of that week was busy. I collected a heap of new crystals and Wally, Walter, and I went around the house embedding them in the walls. We then went room to room, and we decided on a colour scheme for each. Once we were all happy, we liked it, I transported the furniture I’d picked for the room, and we arranged it accordingly. Pammy suggested we move some to different rooms, so they didn’t look cluttered, so the boys moved it. I then inspected the alteration and approved the moves...
I helped myself to the port and sat across from Kim. I asked why he was down here alone and he pouted at me and told me it was my fault. When I gave him an inquiring look, he grinned and said I shouldn’t have winked at him. I laughed. “Sorry, I’ve never actually been with a bloke, but for some reason, I thought if I did, you wouldn’t be a bad place to start.” He must have liked this answer because he said, “Damn straight! You’d break my heart if you did it with anyone else before...
I got up early. I wanted to get the building I owned fixed before it fell down. I also needed to do a bit of Lord Wizard’s stuff. I tried not to disturb Kim when I got up, and I headed to the cavern workshop and double checked what was required to build the boxes for Kim and Mathew. I was finding I only slept for about four hours and I was awake and ready to go. Most of the rest I was learning slept about seven hours. I found all I needed in the cavern, except the copper. I still had...
We went with the others to Mathew’s place. We sat and talked for a bit and then the couples wandered off to find a room. I wasn’t surprised that the new couples had been invited, nor that they disappeared early. I was left with Lindell. She giggled and said, “Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.” The others wouldn’t know if we sat here for the night or not. I finished my drink and said, “My place.” I got up, and I made her stand and then blinked her to my room. She was surprised to...
I woke to a cock between my arse cheeks. Kim was rocking his hard cock between my arse cheeks. He had already managed to penetrate me and was happily working in deeper, and my arse didn’t seem to mind at all. I found my cock was rocking in between Lindell’s cheeks. I could feel Junior was already between her cunnie lips and she wasn’t helping by encouraging him to bury in further. I groaned as Kim pushed in harder and Lindell pushed back onto me. I think they both realised they were...
We found the formal dining room set up for us. I think I had to accept that I couldn’t eat with the staff now the house was getting a mistress. Kim whispered something to Lindell. She looked at me and then headed for the kitchen. I took my seat and then looked up to see my staff heading into the dining room, their plates in one hand and a dish of food in the other. They all picked a seat and made themselves comfortable as Kim and Lindell sat either side of me. I beamed at them, and they all...
Our staff were happy to see us home. We had to attend meetings with the Magistrates and learned that Veldor had flipped out on them. The man had not liked admitting a few home truths as to how he obtained his wealth or his wife. They ended up sending him to a special place where they put people, who had difficulties relating to the world and that had been convicted of serious crimes. All of his wealth was confiscated. They determined that he has used Raelene’s wealth and title to accrue...
I don’t sleep as long as my loves. I got up and decided to consult the crystal ball on the location of the broken medallions. I was surprised they weren’t in the wing I couldn’t approach but in a different house. I blinked over but stayed invisible. The house had a couple of ‘protection’ spells, but they couldn’t detect me while I was inside the invisibility shield. I entered the establishment and found what I was looking for. They were stuffed in a box in the man’s study. They looked like...
It didn’t surprise me to find a mouth on my cock when I woke. Kim was happily licking me and sliding his mouth down my cock. My groan and tightening hips made him aware I was awake. He sucked me harder making my hips flex in time with him. Once he was happy that I was suitably prepared, he popped off my cock. “Fuck Lindell, so I can fuck you,” he asked. My wife removed her tit from my mouth where it had found itself and grinned at me. She moved on to all fours and wiggled her arse at me. I...
In the morning, we had a staff meeting. I explained that we had to go home for a few days and then we had to take the Sarans home. I appointed Oslo as my manager and told him to contact James in Iron Hills for his supplies. If he needed more staff, he was welcome to hire them. He could also have the flat above, once we left. He liked this idea very much. He and Wayne asked if their girls could stay. They wanted to marry them. I don’t think this surprised any of the staff. I said I’d ask the...
David James cussed when he banged his busted knee on the old trunk. He rubbed it and noticed the knee was swelling up again. He was supposed to stay off it for at least another week, but that wasn’t happening. While in the hospital, he had been contacted by a lawyer about his Father’s estate. He owned an apartment building containing sixteen units in the city of Cairns, Queensland, on the northern end of the Esplanade. The lawyer had a buyer. UNSEC (The United Nations Security...
Ulu was feeling miserable. It had turned colder the further north they had travelled, and they had found the thin blankets offered little protection. Ulu hated the cold and was feeling very disgruntled at his confinement. In the last hour or so, the ship had been rocking and rolling more than normal. Several of the girls had been sick in the privy and were a bit green about the gills. It had gotten dark earlier. Ulu heard the sailors shout to get the sails down as they were being chased by...
The spaceship got under way, and they headed off to Mars. This Explorer ship was one of their newest at about 120m long and 60m at its widest. It looked like a flattened oblong. It had two liveable decks that were about 3m high with a meter crawl space between. Helm, food-prep, a sickbay, a rec-room and labs were on this deck. Six bunkrooms were on the second deck, with perishable storage and a communal bathroom. The third deck was the biggest and housed the transporter that seated four of...
David woke slowly. He reached out to find the other side of the bed empty. He frowned. Carol rarely got up before him, as the lady liked her sleep. A tear rolled down his cheek, as he remembered that Carol would be sleeping forever. They had grown close over the weeks they had been together, and while he didn’t love her, he had enjoyed her company, both in and out of bed. The silly bugger hadn’t put the safety harness on the chair on properly. When they had left in a hurry, he had grabbed...
Doc Allan Avon and Kale were working in his lab with the berries. Allan was an avid scientist and loved learning about why different components in plants affected people. He had distilled quite a few poisons and toxins in his time. He had even found plants that helped with pain and stopped wounds from getting infected. He loved plants. They had found a small epiphyte plant growing the berries on one of the trees near the farm. Kale had helped him carefully remove it, and they put it in a...
David was sitting at the helm. He was watching the pictures of the planet below scroll across his screens. He knew why it was called Hades. It was a weird planet. It had an axial tilt of about fifteen degrees. The equator was boiling hot, but Sarah said it was actually cooling. It also had huge ice caps that she told him were, in fact, melting and making the sea less saline. It had active volcanoes caused by something hitting the planet hard and what life was on the planet was basic at...
The magicians spent a week trying to sort out the Palatines at Spur. As Markus had predicted, it was a mess. Some wanted to stay, some want to go. This included both slaves and invaders. Some of the women wanted to keep their man others emphatically didn’t. Then there were the kids. The magicians had arrived en masse and Storm had them do a blanket spell to remove the bad spells that were on the people in the valley. They had agreed to put a temporary spell on them so that they couldn’t...
They decided it was time to get some rooms sorted out. The ladies took them upstairs to show them the rooms that they had picked out. They, in turn, selected rooms nearby, so they stayed together. Everyone agreed to meet up for lunch in an hour or so, once they were settled in. David and his girls collected their basics from the ship and made themselves at home. David and Kelli both had to laugh at the starry-eyed look on Sarah’s face. She didn’t seem the least perturbed that Storm already...
For Raina, it had been a bitter-sweet eighteen months. She loved being at college, and she learned a lot more about how her crafts were made and programmed. She had found her input from what she had flown was making its way to the designers. She loved her daughter whom she had called Dana and suffered through the death of her mother who had a run-in with a kangaroo one night coming back down the range from the Atherton Tablelands to Cairns in her old van. She had only been fifty, and it...
Ben and the boys were picking their rooms. They had discovered upon the first inspection that Zarka was very well equipped for a crew of eight. She had four large bedrooms with huge beds in them, and each had an ensuite. One was either side of the lift exit and the other two towards the back of the ship separated by their ensuites. DT and KJ decided on the two by the lifts. They dropped their packs on the beds and checked out the amenities. The showers looked strange, but they decided...
They finally joined the other three in the kitchen. DT had been cooking and teaching Zarka, with a very attentive KJ helping. Raina wondered which boy was going to get lucky because she had a feeling one of, if not both were also going. She had been as surprised as Ben when Zarka made herself known to them. She had also realised Zarka didn’t really need her to fly the ship. She was obviously capable of doing it herself, since she was apparently, also the ship. That was an explanation,...
Raina found Zarka and DT in the dining area an hour or so later. “Where is KJ?” she asked as she helped herself to coffee. The other two grinned at her like Cheshire cats. “What did you do to him?” she asked. Zarka said while shaking her head slowly, “DT was very naughty.” DT blushed at Raina’s enquiring look. “Oh?” she said. Zarka nodded, “Yes, very, very naughty. I thought them Russians could be naughty, but DT is a bad boy. Poor KJ couldn’t decide if he was coming or going.” DT...
They were preparing to leave when a young man appeared with a backpack. “Hi Daniel, I didn’t know that you were coming to visit,” Trixy said. “Not quite Trixy. I’m going with them,” he announced. Raina frowned at him and walked up to him. She gently touched his cheek and looked into his eyes. He gave her a cheeky grin and wiggled his eyebrows at her, and she had to smile back. Ben felt a prickle of unease at their interaction. He was a nice looking young man about 178cm tall, with his...
His Eminence, Prime Bishop Richard the First, sat on his throne and strummed his first two fingers of his left hand. His birth name was Dick Baker, but there were few people alive, who knew this. Only a select few called him Richard. Most people called him Your Eminence or Prime Bishop. He was a short, rotund man with thinning grey hair and a bald patch on the back of his head. His complexion was mottled, and his skin looked patchy with small areas of scabby rashes all over his body. His...
Penny, Alexus, Kale and Selwyn blinked to Tinble City. They were sad to find that the shield had failed. The devastation suggested that it had failed many years before. When they entered the Citadel, they found it dark and quiet. They activated their wands, so they provided light and using the stairs they headed to the room that the SAI should be located in. They found that she had died. The dried out mess in the tank suggested that she had been dead for a year or possibly two. Kale...
Princess Olivia stood at 158cm tall in her soft diamond studded slippers. Her short mop of tight white, curls surrounded her face like a fluffy cloud. Her large light purple eyes could pin you against the wall when you upset her. Her skin had a light, peachy hue, and her mother said she blushed prettily. She had also somehow ended up with pointy tips on her ears. Her nose was a little unfortunate. Olivia had busted it when she was six, and it now tipped down at the end. It flattened out her...
Olivia jumped down off the waggon and pulled off her hat, to wipe her brow. She dusted it off against the thin linen of her wide flowing pants and looked around. If you looked at where she stood from the air, the mountain range formed a large ‘Y’. It was called the Yani Mountain Range. In the fork of the ‘Y’ was an area that was known as the Forbidden Valley. It was believed that all who approached the valley were turned away. Silver Kingdom sat on the south side of the longest leg of the...
Olivia and Markus both woke refreshed. They headed down to the café and ordered breakfast. Patina happily reported, “Lord Paul and his people had a dreadful night. Six of his men had deserted in the night, and he only has sixteen now. Lord Paul had a particularly bad night. He is a grumpy boy this morning.” Olivia and Markus had to snigger at his misfortune. “Your people are also fine,” Patina told them. Olivia asked, “So how do we convince the rest of the intruders to bugger off?” “Well,...
Storm and Sarah had been on their way to Silver City when Alexus had called them. They then stayed with them for a few days to them to help out, before heading to Silver City. Now that Alexus’s had his apprentice’s box working, he and Penny believed they could get things, up and running during the winter season ahead. Kale and Selwyn planned to help the couple for a few more days before joining David and Kelli in what was to be their new home in Nickle City. Kale and Selwyn were having a...
To say the wizards stole the show would be putting it politely. While they had arrived in the more acceptable manner by coming to the front door and waiting to be announced, that was about all they did that was mundane. Olivia, Warren and Lillian were amused as they watched them enter the ballroom. To start with, they were the tallest people there. Sarah, Zarka and Payton were breathtaking. There was more than one man in the room who wanted to bury his head in their tits. The fact that that...
