Board & Conquest 83: Kamiyuki
Previous Chapter-------It was quite the relief for General Peridot to lead an army whose leadership trusted him.Part of him would never let go of the guilt of allowing Fire Sultan Onyx and his daughter Bloodstone to walk straight to their doom, or failing to call the goddess Pele out before her foolish strategy led to the near complete destruction of Lavaland’s military. Stepping down into dishonorable retirement should have been the most merci...
Board & Conquest 82: Tag Team Battle
Previous Chapter-------The good thing about having too much territory was that he had quite a surplus of mana to draw upon.It only took him three days after the battle for Salamandra for Wepwawet to refill his reserves, with Narc, Salamandra, and Roynimalia providing the lion’s share of the contribution. His civilization now produced forty mana a day, thirty-two after subtracting ongoing doctrine costs. It was quite the change from the early da...

Board & Conquest 81: Strange Bedfellows
Previous Chapter--------The demon emperor walked into the war room as if he owned the place.Emperor Malvolo looked… well, exactly how Victoire imagined a demon emperor would look. The ruler of the Zoramesh Empire was a tall and towering figure, reaching nearly eight feet tall and clad in heavy black plate armor adorned with a crimson velvet cape. Metal covered almost every inch of his body, with his helmet only allowing two dark curved horns to...

Blood & Fur Epilogue (& Afterwords)
The End. Previous Chapter-----It was warm the night when the living gathered to celebrate the Day of the Dead.The drums of Chilam pounded inside the city’s walls and into the night beyond, followed by the song of flutes and the footsteps of dancers forming circles around campfires. Amazoness’ and priestesses of Queen Mictecacihuatl, goddess of the dead, beseeched her to visit them under the pale glow of the moon.Chikal observed the ceremony f...
Board & Conquest 80: Cousins in Arms
Previous Chapter------Few gods were as respected and despised as Anubis among the Egyptian Pantheon.On one hand, his very existence is what kick-started the devastating feud that tore apart their family. Wepwawet never received the exact details—or rather, he only had conflicting accounts to rely on—but apparently his mother Nephthys had had a drunken one night stand with Set’s brother Osiris at a party, which resulted in Anubis. Wepwawet h...
Board & Conquest 79: Moonlight Date
Previous Chapter-------The ambiance at the family dinner was icy.The dinner table in Set’s pyramid had never felt so long. Wepwawet sat on one side with Artemis while doing his best to hide his nervousness. His father and stepmother faced them on the other side, though a large space separated them, and Wepwawet could cut the tension in the air with a knife. He knew that Astarte and his dad hadn’t been on the best of terms since the Storm Gods...
Board & Conquest 78: Monkey Say, Monkey Do
Previous Chapter------Her god wrestled with a giant stone monkey in the surrounding ashes at dawn.Even though they had all received advance warning and the battlefield beyond Salamandra had been cleared of bodies and siege engines, it remained quite the shocking sight. Her god’s Idol had walked out of Salamandra’s volcano to duel his fellow god’s effigy in a fair battle.While it annoyed Victoire that this spar had been the monkey god’s pr...
Board & Conquest 77: Ceasefire
Previous Chapter-----Victoire took the news about as well as Wepwawet expected.“You left him in the middle of enemy territory?!” She all but choked on her end of the telepathic line. “Are you kidding me?!”“I swear it’s his choice!” Wepwawet replied. “He insisted!”“Well, you are his god! Just teleport him back here as soon as possible!” Beneath the anger, Victoire’s mind breathed concern. “Filou… Filou isn’t ready for...
Blood & Fur Chapter 115: The Old God and the New
Previous Chapter-------Final clash theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eEc1eNYBfg&list=RD-eEc1eNYBfg&start_radio=1&ab_channel=RnRAudio1--------I ascended.My blazing soul arose from the depths of the Underworld in a great pillar of fire that melted through the four layers of the Land of the Dead Suns. My star traveled through the gates of the afterlife on its way to the realm of the living, my wings whipping up hurricanes in their wake. I pass...
Board & Conquest 76: Saving Squire Filou
Previous Chapter------Filou vanished into the light alongside the mage he had been fighting.This is bad! Wepwawet’s connection to his Champion let him sense that the poor squire traveled thousands of miles to the southeast, far beyond Lavaland’s borders and straight into the heart of Epona’s Influence. He’s stranded on enemy territory!“Filou!” Victoire shouted in alarm before all but kicking her dragon mount. “After him!”“Yes, M...

Board & Conquest 75: Turn of the Tide
Previous Chapter---------Sun Wukong materialized in the gods’ shared realm of Influence.That alone took Wepwawet by surprise when he and Ishtar manifested there to discuss the situation. The followers of Axomamma, Ganesha, and Horus had all evacuated Salamandra by now, but the Monkey King had left his naga ambassador within the city’s walls. This could only mean he was invested in the battle’s outcome.If he had come as a foe…“Took a whi...
Board & Conquest 74: Hailstorm
Previous Chapter-----Nobody expected a summoned Dungeon as a response to a cavalry charge.Wepwawet’s plan had been simple if unconventional; gather multiple forces in Neigebleue Castle, then teleport it on top of the enemy with the associated Miracle once their siege engines inevitably breached the fortifications. He knew Epona and her allies would likely deploy powerful cavalry through the breach in an effort to quickly storm the defenders.The...
Blood & Fur 114: The Original Sin
Previous Chapter------I was myself, a weakling.The corpses of my consorts hit the steps of the pyramids, piles of limbs torn to pieces, quartered pounds of flesh, empty husks, and crushed skulls. The Nightlords squeezed them dry for every last drop of their blood in front of a silent audience.I did not react, nor did I care. I was too tired and dazed to do so. My skin was flaccid, and my senses dulled with drugs, pulque, and herbs. I felt them sw...
Board & Conquest 73: World War Elphion
Previous Chapter-------Victoire looked over the Verglanian Air Force with apprehension.While the magmorians were exclusively a powerful land army with no flyers whatsoever, Verglane had managed to form a small aerial unit made up of wereowls, winged elephant riders led by Filou, and Jarlack’s wyvern riders crew. This troop numbered less than five hundred and would likely perform better at night than during the day, considering a majority of the...
Board & Conquest 72: Prelude to War
Previous Chapter------A/N: and I'm back!-------Your terms for a B&C battle have been denied.Wepwawet stared at the screen for a second as the consequences became clear. All of his proposals to challenge Epona and her allies to a B&C battle through the System had been summarily rejected, and since they were equal within their class’ pantheon, he couldn’t force a duel.Wepwawet could only think of one explanation why his neighbor would refus...
Poll Results, news and break notice
Hello everyone,First of all, as warned a few weeks back, I'll now be on a break next week to attend an author meet-up with Selkie, RavensDagger, and a few other authors in Norway (this gathering has been a long time coming, and I hope we can at least attend one viking funeral by the end of it). Updates will thus resume on June 24th.I also now confirm that Blood & Fur will conclude in July without a doubt. I am halfway through the next chapter...
Board & Conquest 71: The Trap
Previous Chapter-------Less than a year ago, Victoire thought she would die at the tip of a magmorian’s blade defending Narc to her dying breath. Never would she have expected to witness the coronation of Lavaland’s next sovereign and the start of a peaceful union between their two nations, let alone crown the Fire Sultana on her god’s behalf.So much has happened since that day, Victoire thought as she recalled the moment when Lord Wepwawet...
Blood & Fur 113: The Banquet of Blood
Previous Chapter------The Tomb killed dozens in the blink of an eye.The world drowned in darkness, and walls of screaming flesh encircled us beneath a screaming ceiling. A mansion made of Jaguar Women trapped us within its bowels and began to drain the life of everyone inside. Soldiers at the peak of their vigor and virility aged to dust in an instant, their wrinkled flesh drawn into the depths of the Tomb where their souls would find no rest.My ...
Board & Conquest 70: The Contest
Previous Chapter-----His fellow gods answered his challenge with gusto.Fire Sultana Alexandrite had Wepwawet stand outside of Salamandra’s gates in full view of the city walls. The nearly empty city’s inhabitants had all gathered there to see a genuine god in action. They would watch him prevail against all odds, or falter with the unworthy; quite the show, no matter the outcome.The terms of the contest were simple: each participant god could...

Board & Conquest 69: The Ruby Wedding
Previous Chapter-------When having tea with a demon, one had better come with an antidote.Victoire had followed that advice to the letter when agreeing to Duke Vidé’s breakfast invitation. The red-headed demon ambassador had been a courteous host, even allowing her to bring in bodyguards into his quarters. Both knew normal guards wouldn’t do well against a demon, but it was the thought that counted.“The tea is not poisoned,” Vidé told V...
Blood & Fur 112: The Tide of Sorrow
Previous Chapter--------The winds of battle roared across the sea of clouds.I wove them, bent them, commanded them like a conductor with its singers. I called upon the Slice and the Cloak, upon the winds of chaos and fortune shaped from hatred and gratitude. The flow of air danced at my fingertips into a procession of sharpened blades and whirlwinds that could cut through stone.And cut through stone they did. Inkarri summoned a shield of earth fr...
Board & Conquest 68: Prelude to Chaos
Previous Chapter-------Miss Athena’s frown didn’t inspire much confidence.Wepwapet and Horus had come to her as soon as they finished the godly meeting with their classmates, which basically ended up going nowhere. Epona had offered them a few interesting bribes if they threw the competition, but nothing remotely matching Ishtar’s Underworld Escape prize. At least Sun Wukong had voiced interest in trading Miracles too, so this opened the do...
Board & Conquest 67: Power Blocks
Previous Chapter-------Seven Champions had gathered in the audience chamber to bring about the greatest divine council Elphion had yet to see.Wepwawet observed the gathering through Victoire’s eyes as Sultana Alexandrite greeted each of them. One could learn much about a god from the Champions they kept in their confidence, and he could already glean a few interesting tidbits from a mere first glance.First of all, since magmorian rooms weren’...
Board & Conquest 66: Underhanded Negotiations
Previous Chapter-------Wepwawet reread the Miracle description for what must have been the third time in a row.Underworld EscapeRank 12 RitualRevive a dead Champion back to full health and vigor at a designated spot within your Influence. The Champion’s old remains are destroyed in the process, and equipment does not come back with them.This was it. A free resurrection with no catch or obvious downside besides the mana cost. True, it would only...
Board & Conquest 65: Cousinade
Previous Chapter-----“That bird bastard!” Wepwawet complained. “I can’t believe he parked a pyramid in my backyard!”“At least he didn’t shit on your windshield,” Artemis quipped back, which earned her a glare from Wepwawet. “Sorry, I couldn’t help it.”“I didn’t expect him to send a flying pyramid of all things,” Ganesha said. “Do you think he has more than one?”“I don’t know!” Wepwawet complained. The mere kn...
