Suncrest - Chapter 6
Chapter 6 - The Dragon Thief It was rare Tea's jobs brought them away from the capital. The pixie lay sprawled across the train cushions, shoveling down cookies. They still had yet to change out of their new taller form, but Tea at least had the...
Suncrest - Chapter 5
Chapter 5 - Who am I? A clear bottle dropped on the table. "Feast your eyes, Gi," Tea declared. "This is gonna make us invincible." The pixie hovered in front of the table, smiling from ear to ear as if expecting him to burst into applause at any...
Suncrest - Chapter 4
Chapter 4 - A Pixie's Offer The familiar sensation washed over Giu before he drove a fist into the face of an avian. It wasn't strong enough to kill, but the way the crow's head turned at the impact made him concerned for a few seconds. He was still...
Suncrest - Chapter 3
Chapter 3 - Tag, You're It "Amnesia?" Tea asked. Giu nodded, shoveling a piece of his contraband down his gullet. Why did crime have to taste so good? Maybe it would have been better to throw it out the window. They were thousands of feet in the air,...
Suncrest - Chapter 2
Chapter 2 - Food and Friends The smell of a warm campfire always set Giu's stomach in the mood. The rotisserie was simple enough to set up. He was in the middle of the woods, where trees came a plenty, and no one was there to stop you from chopping...

Suncrest - Chapter 8
Chapter 8 - Ice and Dragons The dirt caved under him, Giu kicking off to avoid the cascade of ice flying in his direction. Pillars arched in the air. He dodged low, sidestepping a few but letting the others slide against his armored left arm as he...
Suncrest - Chapter 7
Chapter 7 - The Holy Dragon Stepping into Ling-Li was akin to stepping into a different world. Carriages drifted by carried along by giant sharp-toothed creatures with twin horns. Their enormous bodies somehow dwarfed the already large...
Suncrest - Chapter 20
Chapter 20 - Immy Like most of the land near Haywar, the Buntail Woodlands consisted of a series of rivers, wetlands, and marshy swamps covered in plant life. The leafless oaks were just as hardy as he remembered, Giu rubbing the base of one...
Suncrest - Chapter 19
Chapter 19 - The Final Deru Dish pieces clattered together as they fell into the trash can, Giu and Tea frantically sweeping over the apartment. Elly had traded out her apron for yellow gloves as she went to work making repairs. Fledge popped in...
