Challenge #04765-M016: Artisinal Assistance

They were an inventor and creator, but also worked with magic. They made special limbs for those missing limbs, braces for those with injured backs and other joints, chairs for those that could not walk, and medicines to ease pain. Best part? These items, no matter how people tried to destroy them, simply repaired themselves, and always returned, undamaged, to the owner. And if the owner was a child? These items grew with the child or changed with the owner's needs. -- Anon Guest

Magic can be used to restore what was lost. Magic can sometimes replace what was lost. It's not so good at things that were never there to begin with, but should have been. That was where other miracles are in order.

Khedna Gyrglint worked on a different kind of miracle. A blend of magic and technology, each artefact made for an individual with care and attention to detail. Every need seen to on a case by case basis. One might need a foot. One might need a special brace to reshape a foot. One might need a device to help them hear. All made one by one, to order.

Khedna does fine, detailed work, of course, because they are a Gnome. Unlike other Gnomes, they take pride in making sure their special artefacts last a lifetime. Specifically for the lifetime of the one who needs it.

Friday, Supplies Expedition

I has moneys, and I need to spend it. Huzzah. We've gone through a whole bunch of supplies and we need other supplies to unfuck a few things.

Meanwhile, the bread has commenced. I'm enlisting the kids to help with the dough schedule.

I'll be taking off on that adventure shortly.

Story shall be happening after I return from my expensive Leyland's tour. Editing of my anthology will happen if I have the spoons after all of that related noise.

I will

Challenge #04764-M015: Needing a Keeper

While on duty, they collapsed. They awakened to find their level 1 deathworlder friends, and their level 1 havenworlder companion, near them in the infirmary. Yet again they'd worked themselves into collapse, and kept forgetting to take their medicines that helped their body function. -- Anon Guest

One of the best-heeded portions of advice for Companions is, The Humans don't always know if they're in medical distress. Followed by the various subtle signs of distress so the Companion can be prepared. None

Thursday, Physio and Maybe Shopping

We need supplies. We I need to make bread. We need to unclog the kitchen sink drain. I need to check the footnotes of the anthology and line shit up to get that thing out there.

I'll have to give it out for free. Nobody pays for it anyway.

My heel has been a literal pain in the anatomy of late. Even though I've been doing a few things to help strengthen it. My knees, on the other hand, were improving. As

Challenge #04763-M014: Found on the Doorstep

Their back was so injured they couldn't move. The litter they were on was dumped unceremoniously at the cottage of an old devil who raised goats. They had bled and taken injuries for the ones that now ditched them as useless. Yet, they felt no rage. Even if they died here. They got hurt saving people from a monster attack. That, for them, was good enough. -- Anon Guest

Kosh woke to the barking of his goat, Nani, who was convinced that

Challenge #04762-M013: Faekindred Family

Barthus noticed little things around the shop. Damaged items repaired, clothes sewn, better clothes for Makana, etc

The faerie folk cared for those that took care of their new young ones. And made life hard for those that made life harder for the caretakers.

Explaining the whole world a bit at a time was eye-opening. Barthus had never thought to question the things his new prentice/child did, but now the questions were

Wednesday, Leyland's Tour Ahoy

So here's the PLN:

  • [X] I write this blog entry
  • [X] I wait for MeMum's email as proof of consciousness
  • [ ] I gear up, fuel up, and get my arse over there
  • [ ] We go on a tour of a lot of places
  • [ ] I do tech support
  • [ ] I get foods
  • [ ] And maybe other stuff
  • [ ] I go home
  • [ ] I make my offerings (if not too blasted by the above)

If I am too frazzled when I get home, there shall be catching up tomorrow.

And

Tuesday, Patreon and Embuggerance

My archive site is chucking a wobbler at the moment. I can catch up on archiving stuff, but it is promising to be a pain in the butt. Hopefully it gets unfucked soon.

I have to check my stuff, but I'm pretty sure there's some to share with my Patrons.

Tomorrow... I may yet be late putting anything up because I'm due to take MeMum out on errands and then do some tech support. Huzzah.

The Promptcast hopes to put the second

Challenge #04761-M012: Rest and Restrategise

It's late, I'm tired, but I can't sleep. Can I stay in your room tonight, please? -- Anon Guest

Was there a worse condition for an Adventurer than to be a chronic overthinker? Ironically, Humility couldn't think of one. His mind was racing in circles regarding their most recent fuckup and how close they'd come to becoming some other Adventuring party's grim discovery.

At least they holed up in a nice inn to recover.

Humility was used to the gang-wide cuddle pile.

Monday, Reads, Streams, and Stories

Twenty-one chapters remain to be written in order to declare a completion of A Devil's Tale. Then I plug it all into the Beta Reads section and share with my throng. And I have to poke everyone who has their hands on it.

Sigh. Not the fun part.

Today, after writing the story of the day, I shall delve into last year's anthology and start checking titles.

Gotta get that thing out before February. I already let one week sail by because

Challenge #04760-M011: The Weather Outside is Frightful

It was extremely hot on this expedition. The human's suit was not cooling well. Much to their confusion and fear, the human overheated and collapsed. They thought humans sweat to cool off. This one didn't. That difference almost caused things to be dire. Medical saved them, and they admitted a genetic disorder making sweating nearly impossible. -- Anon Guest

[AN: Thanks for the half-hour wiki walk, OP]

They had become so accustomed to the noise from Human Ru's cooling system that they

Challenge #04759-M010: Seeds of Downfall

I do not normally approve of holding one in chains and forcing them to work against their will. However, you held many in that condition, so your sentence is 10 years living as your slaves did. Don't worry, you won't be killed, or be allowed to die. You can't learn if you're dead. -- Anon Guest

There were some crimes so enormous that the perpetrator simply must suffer as an example to others. Especially the others who think they can get away

Saturday, Pain Really Hurts

The shopping trip made my ankle really, really angry, so I'm taking more of a break for that sore and sorry portion of myself.

Sometimes, it's difficult to tell whether my heel or my ankle causing issues, I just limp all over the place. Or need my cane and cause worse knots in my firkin shoulder.

I need my cane today.

So instead of going on a Leyland's Tour with MeMum, I'll be staying in and doing the writing and the icing

Challenge #04758-M009: Cut Out the Rot

Bibrid, once in his rarely used silver dragon form, held the weeping human that was near the body now slowly cooling on the floor./ (I.... I cannot.. believe I just did that.. I just... killed them.)

"But in doing so, many, many more will live."/ (A part of me felt like it just died, too.)

"That's what it feels like to kill another cognizant being. The fact it upsets you so means you understand, too, the gravity of it. It means you'll
