Pivot of the Sky – Chapter 41, A Divine Wager

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon   Inanna leaned her voluptuous and tender body onto Amon and whispered in her mellow voice, “I’m not scared, with such a strong and handsome hunter by me… But why did you choose to let them go? They tried to kill you. They don’t deserve your mercy. An enemy pardoned is still an enemy.” Amon thought for a second and answered, “I’m not interested in killing, and I don’t think there…

Pivot of the Sky – Chapter 35, Divination

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon   There was a popular joke that circulated among the common people on this continent. “When the dear mages launched magics, they are not only showing how good they are at using the divine power they owned, they are also showing how good they are at throwing away money.” Even the cheapest staff demanded a standard parangon atop. The amount of money a precious or rare staff was worth could definitely…
