"Wouldn't it just," Jak muttered. He picked at his teeth. "Problem is, my scout lost his ruttin' map case some time back, and I'm running blind. But," he continued. "I've enough idea to make a thrust...

"Wouldn't it just," Jak muttered. He picked at his teeth. "Problem is, my scout lost his ruttin' map case some time back, and I'm running blind. But," he continued. "I've enough idea to make a thrust...
Oh, three hells. Jak clenched his teeth. A mage bitch. And they want me to lead.
"First of all." The words rumbled like stones down a hillside, as Jak laconically unstrung his bow. "We ain't seen...
"One more time." Jak rubbed his forehead and sighed. "One more time, tell me how you got us lost."
Stephane winced and coughed. "I, uh, lost the map."
"Right. And how, again?"
"I ... I really...
Register.
"I know," Duggan growled when Jak made his report. "Main patrol's been picking up stragglers all day. Something's happening, and I don't know what it is, and I don't like it. We lost contact with...
A pang in his chest gave Jak reason to pause in his chopping, and he looked up at Tobias' remark. Narrowed green eyes surveyed his homeland, and for the first time in a long time, really looked at it...
Jak's eyes streamed with tears, red and swollen. From the hollow surrounding, they heard the stamping of hooves. Mathes looked up, wiped drivel from his mouth, and spat with dull fury. A score of...
The sky was just as dingy as he remembered. A thin veil of gray cloud filtered watery sunlight to the dirt. Jak curled his toes, feeling mud squelch beneath his moccasins. His horse whinnied,...
The city was like a shattered skeleton, Jak decided. Over the past week, as he'd gone out on patrol time and again, he'd been trying to find some appropriate symbol by which to name the ruins he...
Haaaaaaahahahahaha, HAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!! MY PLAN PROCEEEEEEEDS!!
I mean uh get better and stuff.

Noon sun beat down over a half-living city, like a passing merchant smiling at a starving urchin. Figures crawled over the city like ants; men, elves,...
He had made it back to his original seat - mercifully unoccupied in his absence from the crowded tavern - and sat down to a fresh tankard before the flush of battle quelled. The first bob of his...
The crypt had been quiet for all of ten seconds after Isstar gurgled out his last breath. Jak realized he'd been holding his breath and let it out with a slow, silent whistle. Tobias, shaking...
Jak snarled and clashed his blades together, about to advance against the mage, but the tall man waved a warning finger with a grin, and the responding sanguine snake lashing at the smith warned him...
The second half of the story of "Sneaks & Snakes."
Previously:
The three mercenaries, backed by a pickpocket and a dwarf, swore silently as they realized just how thoroughly above their...
Goddammit. The door banged behind him, and by the muffled swearing it must've landed on some eager bastard's nose or something. With the taste of black beer still in his mouth, Jak stared about the...

A'ight y'all, let's kick this off.
Plot (14/30 – 14/30)
Night was prowling at the horizon, fangs bared in furious retreat before the inexorable dawn. Darkness was a predator here, a naked threat to any not in its cult. The evening howled with hateful...
Jak snorted as he turned away, throwing his eyes about for his bow. He had dropped the weapon during his initial skirmish with Tobias. That piece of oak and gutstring was an old friend, and had...
Ain't we all, Tob. Tobias had joined the mercenary fraternity, then; the bastard brotherhood of dust and mist. In some ways they were their own race and realm, and small pieces of glittery metal were...
I'll take a look at it and let you know.
Update: it's interesting/difficult because it's in Japanese. Did you want Japanese or English lyrics? Both have their challenges.

"Get fucked on a cactus," Jak hissed, backing as the woman dripped her words. He'd seen the vine, and it only unnerved him more. He didn't want to know what it meant for where this was going. This...
"Fuck you, Stalt," Jak spat, offering the words as a desperate effort to maintain a crumbling illusion. The smith shook, trying to hold his ready pose, but the strength was sapped from his limbs....
Jak flinched at the sound of deflection. His arrow not only missed - Tobias blocked it. The smith had seen only a handful of fighters fast enough to block arrows. He himself was quick enough to dodge...
