Why I Rebranded

I'm terrible with consistency. One of the most important skills a human being can have, and I am so incredibly bad at it that it's practically a personality trait by now. When I started this website, I tried my hardest to roleplay in my little made-up world. If you were there at the start, you know what I mean - "He Who Writes", the super long title, the bullshit paragraph that I pulled out of thin air to kinda-sorta-not really describe what was going on here, etcetera. And don't get me wrong, I still enjoy roleplaying and letting out my cringe demons. But that was a bit much...alright, maybe more than a bit. I've thought of so many ways to explain myself to you all over the past few months, but nothing ever felt right: "I'll be finishing another entry soon" would be stalling, "I'm sorry" would be giving up, and "I've got plenty of other projects in the works" would be a bribe. So, I'll just be honest - I have no idea what happens next. Life became a problem that I couldn't fix, leaving everyone who cared about this story (all five of you) holding the metaphorical bag.

I can't guarantee a consistent posting schedule, but there will be more to read here in time. For now, let me explain some of the ideas I have for how the website will be handled:
  • Endless Possibilities - From now on, I'll post whatever I want. Gods, demons, magic, science, war, loss, family - anything I feel like writing. Probably won't get into any more long series for a while, since we saw how wonderfully that went, but I will definitely finish up that storyline. I'll  do a full overhaul to the current entries, then finish the last two or three entries of that tale before moving onto greener pastures.
  • Canon Content - Not everything posted will be entirely true to the world (stories about vampires don't mean vampires exist), but everything posted is part of the in-universe lore. Even if the supernatural isn't real, people believe it is, and will tell stories with that belief in mind. The same applies to mythological stuff as well as everyday occurrences; anything can be true or not, but it's all canon to the world regardless.
  • Labels - In order to differentiate between different types of content, I'll be utilizing the label system within BlogSpot. Each post will have a categorizing label, allowing me to filter content for viewers without creating tons of separate menu pages.
Like I said at the start, I'm terrible with consistency. But I haven't forgotten about this place.

Welcome to the Chronicalus.

Entry 14

I needed to make a choice. Either I could intervene in this massacre, or I could turn around and return to a land that may not want me around much longer. Reaching down to pick up a somewhat unused sword from a body, I noticed an insignia emblazoned along the front of the corpse's leather chestplate. It resembled a sword pointed down, with a half-sun shining above it. A memory rushed to the forefront of my mind: a page in some book in the Academy's library, showing that exact insignia as the mark of Triton. Of course there would be Tritonian soldiers in the pass; if was a major border trail between their land and that of the Kyrlund.  Yet, the Freehold Confederacy had worked with Triton to trick Bovica during the final stages of the rebellion. Bovica's rival nation obviously desired the Kyrlund for themselves, but an outright conflict between a group who allied with them only a short time prior would be seen by many as dishonorable. And if there was one thing the leaders of

Why I'm Spamming Old Unreleased Content

I'm sure you'll notice the growing log of crappy, unfinished content that I have shoved onto the site as of...well, today. I came to this realization a few weeks ago, but relating to my unfinished games moreso than documents, and that was how many things I create yet never show to the world. Bad or not, I shouldn't leave content dormant and hidden when it could spark a better idea in someone else. This influx is partially to get some ideas out of my head, but it's also to hopefully help someone else bring about their own. So, I hope you enjoy these posts. Seeya :)

Learning to Love in a World of Hate (The Elder Scrolls)

This is a lorebook within the Elder Scrolls universe that I wrote for a lorebook contest back in 2022. I hope you like it :) --- My mother and father fought often - one worked a mill, the other a kitchen. They never lied nor put their knuckles to use, but brutal honesty lays the truth harder than a fist ever could. Our trips west were marred by icy demeanors and frigid replies, colder than the Alik'r heat had any right to allow. Yet they never parted ways. Not when I was a seed, not when I was a sapling, not even after my trunk stopped growing and my limbs stopped reaching. I admired that. The dedication, the desire to see things through despite their misgivings. I didn't always understand it, but as the years wind down and my light dims further, I think I finally see it for what it was. Love, real love, isn't dictated by constant adoration and pandering, but by cooperation and understanding. Passion is spicy and short - home simmers long and sweet, rooting beneath the surf
