Molly Carpenter... neophyte wizard, prisoner of the fey and technically a warlock, now champion of the forgotten Hells whose masters have faded from the universe long ago. If the Yozi could laugh from beyond oblivion they would. Also Harry Dresden did technically set the green fire....
You are Forrester Keras. You are many things: bonded to a carnivorous tree, an apprentice learning how to refine miraculous elixirs under the tutelage of one of the Seishen Kingdom's few Underlords, a good-natured and generous child, and thoroughly confusing to almost everyone you meet. When you were young, you struck a deal with a heavenly messenger, and his guidance has already carried you far, but a great calamity is coming close—and you are not yet aware of it.
Improve yourself, little...

Let me be the first to welcome you all to what I believe is a true Sufficient Velocity rarity: a quest sequel.
For those coming from Practice War, you already know most of what I’m about to say, so bear with me for a few moments. I’m not entirely set on the system I’m going to use for this quest, but that’s mostly due to how this is unlikely to be the same sort of primarily turn-based quest as Practice War was. The story laid out ahead of us, and Amanda, might not work so well for that...

![On the Road to Elspar [Book 1] (Dryad Mercenary Schoolgirl Quest)](/data/threadmark-index-icons/m/0/585.jpg?1599502351){kind=icon}
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense...
For decades now the nation of Nhalmasque has laboured under the yoke of the Garlean Empire - your kin. They raised you to believe you brought prosperity to this land, but now you see the truth. And if you must sell your own soul so that justice be done... You will.
Fuel of Empires is a progression fantasy where you control a new channeler as they take their first steps on the path to greatness.
Taylor Hebert grew up fearing the Butcher: a mad, body-hopping supervillain that has managed to remain terrifying in a city with a legion of super-powered nazis and a guy who can kill you with your own bones. When she inherits the mantle by accident, she discovers something even more terrifying: her powers have made it not only stable, but controllable. Anyone who kills her will inherit vast power and keep their mind mostly intact.
If she survives, she might be the change her dying...
You are an ordinary mecha pilot, embroiled in a fight between two Imperial factions over the fate of the Jupiter System. Space is deadly, war is harsh, your allies are all that you have.

You are a two-bit, first arc villain miraculously back from the dead.
You don't know how. You don't know why. You have nothing and no-one save yourself.
This is your second chance. Take it, make it, or break it: it's all up to you.
The dead stalk the night, the Wizards wage a secret war for the future of human thought (and the universe), and wolf-men fight against the oncoming apocalypse...
You are not one of them. You are a Solar Exalted, a modern person with the powers of the ancient heroes of a forgotten age. The world is ending , and you are humanity's last, best, hope.
Even before you woke from the shining, immortal Dream you stood between your siblings and gruesome, ravening horror without a second thought. Rise, Valiant of the Wyld Hunt, rise and know thyself. Rise and love thyself, thy world and all creatures within it. Rise and behold Tyria, this grand and glittering stream of love and life. Behold its transience, behold its fragility.
And shudder before its beauty.
Once, you would stand in the shadow of an apocalypse and call it Tuesday.
Once, you could quell a goddess by glaring too hard.
Once, you chose not to be a Beast.
That was ten years ago. The Grand Order is over. The last world has been saved for the last time. The pen has lifted from the page.
These days you’re just a girl who’s seen too much.
But the story everyone told you was over is calling you back one last time.
What will you do?
You are a dead thing made by a dead power in the shape of the dead.
Some days you think all you will ever do is kill.
But not even the dead are truly gone.
And you have promises to keep, and miles to go before you sleep.
An Empire Divided is a Quest set in the late Age of Three Empires-era of Warhammer Fantasy Battle. It is a quest inspired in large part by many of the other Warhammer Fantasy quests that you have seen on SV, many of which I strongly recommend that you read. It is also inspired by the GSRP Heirs of Sigmar, of which some of the mechanics and setting-details have been borrowed from. It is a quest set in the waning centuries of the Age of Three Emperors, where Sigmar's Empire has been divided...
