Bio-Timeline

• 29 BC - Visenya Targaryen is born, the first child of Aerion Targaryen, Lord of Dragonstone, and his wife Valaena Velaryon.
• 27 BC - Only a few years later, the boy who would later become the Conqueror, Aegon Targaryen, is born. His betrothal to Visenya is arranged almost the moment he is swaddled.
• 25 BC - Rhaenys Targaryen, youngest of the trio, joins the family. She is the last Targaryen born before the Conquest.
• 21 BC - Visenya begins to train with Lord Quenton Qoherys, Master-at-Arms of Dragonstone, and shows exceptional skill at arms. Later on, Aegon and Rhaenys both join her in practising their swordplay. Visenya always seems to get an edge, despite their shared significant skill.
• 14 BC - Between training sessions, Visenya finds herself exploring quiet places on Dragonstone. It is during one of these outings that she comes across one of the island’s non-human occupants. Vhagar, one of the smaller dragons on the island, bonds quickly with her. It takes a few months of bonding, but Visenya quickly becomes close to the beast - and soon enough she becomes its one and only rider.
• 9 BC - As arranged many years before, Aegon and Visenya wed. It is a marriage of duty, but all know Aegon holds love for his younger sister over the elder. Visenya holds no resentment. She knows duty and love cannot always intermingle, but she will do hers.
• 7 BC - Rhaenys and Aegon marry two years later in a pivot from tradition. Visenya spends more time with Vhagar and less with her siblings in the wake of it, though her love for Aegon does not dull. She remains close with the pair even with her physical distance.
• 2 BC - After a while of planning and plotting, the three Targaryens fly forth to conquer Westeros. House Stokeworth fell to Vhagar’s flames, and Duskendale knelt to the Queen after the fall of their army in Aegon’s first test. With the lands that would later become the core of Targaryen dominion secured, Aegon was crowned King of All Westeros, a crown placed atop his head by his elder sister and his title proclaimed by his younger. As the Stormlands fall to Rhaenys, and Harrenhal to Aegon, Visenya finds herself tasked with the conquest of the Vale. After destroying the region’s fleet, though not without losing a large portion of the Targaryen navy itself, Visenya circles back to Blackwater Bay, landing in Crackclaw Point and accepting the oaths of fealty of the local lords in the wake of Harrenhal’s destruction. With the Claw pacified, Visenya flies to join her siblings once more. They take a smaller force to the Reach, to meet an army of the Gardeners and Lannisters in battle. Nearly through dragonfire alone, the armies of Reach and West crumble, House Gardener nearly becomes extinct, and House Lannister kneels to the new royal house. Visenya receives an injury in the battle, taking an arrow to the shoulder, but it does nothing to hamper her skill.
• 1 BC - In the wake of the Field of Fire, Visenya retreats to the Aegonfort to recover from her injury. It does not take long for her to return to action, though, joining her siblings at the Trident to await the arrival of a Northern host led by the King of Winter. Visenya has no qualms with burning every Northman who wishes to cross the river, but Torrhen’s surrender is a move she views as wise. With the northern border secure, Visenya deals with her only loose end once and for all. On dragonback, she travels to the Eyrie as the Queen Regent of the Vale amasses an army, her attempt to arrange a marriage between herself and Aegon a failure. Visenya’s arrival is met by the young King, who sits himself up on her lap to await Sharra Arryn’s arrival. When she turns up, Ronnel asks to fly on dragonback - and that is enough to make Sharra capitulate, handing over the crown of Mountain and Vale to the dragonrider. Visenya’s act of mercy endears her to the young king and his mother, who becomes a close companion of Visenya in later years.
• 1 AC - With the Conquest brought to an end, besides the Dornish and the Ironborn homeland, the royal family fly to Oldtown to witness the crowning of Aegon I Targaryen, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm. To gain the sympathies of the people, the Targaryens convert to the Faith of the Seven - though Visenya holds fast to her Valyrian beliefs behind closed doors, unwilling to abandon her heritage to please those who she conquered. With Aegon’s victory, King’s Landing’s construction becomes the focus of the realm. For a while, anyway. During this initial period of peace, one attempt is made on the life of the King, with Visenya putting down the assassins. Aegon believes his guards are more than sufficient usually, and she proves him wrong by opening up his cheek with the tip of Dark Sister before any of his men can respond. Not long after, Ser Corlys Velaryon is named Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, and six knights are selected to join him in an act honouring the false gods of Westeros.
  • Far from the capital, in Mooncrest, a daughter is born to Lord Lyn Egen and his wife. She is named Marsella.
• 2 AC - Once again, the peace is fractured. House Sunderland resumes their rebellion against House Arryn and the Crown, and the Ironborn continue to war with Westeros as a whole. Whilst Aegon deals with the raiders to the west, the Queen flies north and puts down Queen Marla Sunderland and her rebels, turning the hold of House Sunderland and the entire line to ash, naming House Borrell as overlords of the Sisters, and bidding them swear fealty to House Stark of Winterfell in place of the young Lord Arryn. Before returning to King’s Landing, she takes a quick stop at the Eyrie to berate the Lady Regent for her negligent handling of the situation - though she leaves with a far more forgiving stance, and perhaps a touch of regret for her harsh decision.
• 3 - 7 AC - Visenya assumes a position in the royal court enforcing Aegon’s will, assisting the Kingsguard in protecting him from attacks, and providing an intimidating presence for those who would overstep their bounds. She maintains contact with the Arryns of the Vale, letters flying back and forth to keep her friendship with the Lady Regent alive. She gives and receives advice, whiles away time writing, and promises to visit.
• 7 AC - At a feast to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the Conquest, during one of Rhaenys’ visits to Dorne, the King is attacked. Goldcloaks perform the assassination attempt in great numbers, and the force of Visenya and the Kingsguard isn’t enough to stop them from getting to Aegon and wounding him. Despite their failure to protect him, the fight ends in royal favour as Ser Malwyn Blackwood takes some of the assailants captive and Visenya tends to the fallen king. He is unresponsive but alive, and Orys promises to take care of him whilst the prisoners are interrogated. Reluctantly, the Queen agrees. It does not take long for the truth to be revealed - that House Tully of Riverrun plotted the attack, in an attempt to kill the King. It seemed unlikely that they would fail, in the end, but Visenya refused to let them see their day of victory. Only she is told, and she acts immediately, leaving the city on the back of Vhagar and heading towards Riverrun with only one objective in mind. When she reaches the castle, there is little hesitation - fire envelops the people and the structures, turning all to ash. No Tully survives, in her reckoning, and she takes the signet ring of Lord Edmyn as proof of her victory and their failure. Naming the land Aegon’s Rest, she pens a writ bestowing it upon Baelor Belaerys, a man in her husband’s service and descendant of dragonlords of old, and names Lord Lannister the overlord of the territory. She returns to King’s Landing, but her visit does not last long - when Aegon’s death is confirmed, and the Master of Laws reveals the plans to split governance three ways, she leaves for the Vale almost immediately. She only stays around long enough to have her pregnancy confirmed - an heir to the throne.
• 7 - 10 AC - It doesn’t take long for Visenya to arrive at the Eyrie, welcomed in her grief by Sharra and her children. She is visibly pregnant, and her small retinue settles in well. Most of her time is spent with the Lady Regent and the children, and the birth of her first child - who she names Laenor - is no deterrent from that. In fact, it often seems that Visenya has more affection for her host’s children than her own. She becomes almost a second mother to the Lord of the Eyrie and his three siblings. Despite her closed-off nature, she finds a constant companion in Sharra Arryn, and becomes as close to friends as she can with many others present in the castle including Lord Lyn Egen, an advisor to the Lady Regent. She splits her time between training, flying, the children, and her own heir.
• 10 AC - Ronnel Arryn comes of age, and is wedded to Serena Stark. It is an arrangement made by Rhaenys, one that infuriates Visenya to no end initially. She becomes irate at Sharra, but quickly turns around and accepts it. Their relationship remains warm and close. However, nearing the end of the year, Sharra dies. Once more, Visenya retreats into herself, spending most of the days in the sky on Vhagar’s back alone. She is convinced to return to life by the Arryn children, and continues to raise them into adulthood. Without Sharra, it is a harder task, but one she confronts all the same.
• 13 AC - Despite their devotion to the Seven, gods Visenya only considered to be hers in name, the formation of the Cavaliers brings joy to the Queen in the Mountains. She places her support behind the order, continuing her return to public life within the Vale. She takes on the duty of training the daughter of her good friend Lord Egen, teaching young Marsella how to fight. Despite their difference in weaponry - Visenya’s preference for smaller longswords versus Marsella’s for large hefty greatswords - the two get along fiercely well.
• 15 AC - When news of the tragedy in the Kingswood reaches the Eyrie, Visenya sends her condolences to the regent for the deaths under his watch. There is something cold about the way it is written.
• 16 AC - News of Dorne’s integration into the Seven Kingdoms pleases her no more than the Kingswood Catastrophe, especially when the stipulation upon which it happened is made known to her. Unwilling to dishonour the deal, Visenya ensures that she has it in writing that Laenor will one day marry the Princess of Dorne’s daughter, but she is irate over Rhaenys’ move - but also a little proud of her younger sister for outmanoeuvring her.
• 19 AC - After a long period of courting and an even longer period of talking, a wedding is held at Mooncrest between Visenya Targaryen and Lord Lyn Egen. There is jubilation, a tournament, a grand feast, and perhaps the first real smile on the lips of Visenya since the death of Sharra Arryn. It is proof that there is still a drop of the old Visenya beneath the cold, disconnected surface, that very few see. It is not the end of ceremony for the Egens in that year, as Marsella is inducted into the Cavaliers. She is sworn to protect Laenor Targaryen, too, her sibling and friend.
• 20 AC - Early in the year, after a prolonged illness, Lyn’s eldest daughter Carolei passes. There is sorrow in Mooncrest, but it is solved in part by good news. Just a year and a bit after their wedding, Visenya and Lyn’s first and only child is born, a young girl named Maegelle. She is Lyn’s third daughter, second living, and only one present in Mooncrest - Marsella left a note in the wake of her sister’s death that she was taking some time for herself in Essos and would be back when she viewed it right. Some wonder if she is participating in Orys’ plans to create closer relations with Essos, but the Egens know that is unlikely - Marsella cares little for politics and less for the enemies of her father’s wife.
• 20 - 25 AC - Visenya and Lyn remain quiet at Mooncrest and the Eyrie, engaging in politics and plotting and regular court life (moreso for the latter than the former), as Laenor becomes more and more shaped into the ruler they’re meant to become. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Marsella becomes more grizzled a warrior, serving with the Lost Legion before their arrival in Westeros, meeting the Blue Sails and their leader Helya Harlaw and joining them briefly, and taking on mercenary work across the Free Cities and the Disputed Lands for anyone who would pay for a Westerosi warrior. Her contact with Mooncrest is limited, bearing only a few words attached to packages for Laenor alone.
• 25 AC - As Laenor comes of age, and the realm at large is summoned to King’s Landing to celebrate the namedays of her and Rhaenys’ children, Visenya prepares for the worst - her sister will not move aside easily, and she knows well enough that Rhaenys might have to be forced. But there is no doubt in her mind that she is ready for it - she just prays the realm is to join her. From the East, Marsella returns, ready to see her kin and friends for the first time in half a decade. She is not the same woman she once was.

Supporting Characters

Lord Lyn Egen - b. 24 BC - Archetype: General - Wise and a touch ferocious, Lyn is a skilled commander and a protective father, ready to do whatever he can to protect his daughters and Visenya’s own child. Skilled enough with a sword but more comfortable ahorse or behind a commander’s desk, the man who served as Keeper of the Gates of the Moon during the Conquest and was ready to cut his teeth against dragonfire now acts as the most loyal and proud follower of the very Queen who conquered his lands, his own wife.
Lorra Egen - b. 6 AC - Archetype: Builder - Despite the martial inclination of much of House Egen, Laenor is not the only occupant of Mooncrest who has grasped numbers well. Lorra Egen is a skilled mathematician in her own right, left in charge of the finances of the castle when her distant step-kin isn’t there to run them, and often assisting them in doing so. She is prim and proper and prone to judgement, but she is kind at heart. No niece of Lyn Egen would survive not being so, in truth.

OOC: co-written with NotTooSunny
It was an ordinary day at the New York City Library. People wandered in and out of the building, unaware of the monster that lurked among them.
The only people who seemed to know the danger these mortals were in were Harper and Amon, who entered the building with glowing bronze swords at their hips. The bulky weapons seemed to have escaped the notice of the other library patrons, which was a good thing. The job description had made it clear that they were meant to remain inconspicuous in completing their task.
Harper had traded her usual bright orange camp shirt for a more discrete cropped black t-shirt and pleated pants. She had been insistent on coming up with a persona for them on the train ride from Montauk Station into New York City. They were meant to act as high school students researching for a World History paper on Ancient Greece. Now that they were inside the library, she had stopped her incessant rambling to peruse a riddle book, in what she had insisted was preparation for their job.
As they wandered through the bookshelves, she remained absorbed in the dog-eared children’s book, thumbing through the pages to find a riddle that would be fitting of a sphinx.
“Here’s one, Amon,” she said, narrowly avoiding a collision with another library patron as she read, “What is something that runs but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?”
The dark-haired son of Apollo glanced over from a shelf of dusty atlases, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. “That is an easy one,” he replied simply. "River. Try me with something more challenging next time around." He adjusted the collar of his striped button down, which he had layered with a navy blue sweater in preparation for the chill of the air-conditioned interior.
“The real riddle is where we can find this sphinx,” Amon glanced around the spacious reading area, eyeing the dark wooden staircase with its ornate railings. “The boyfriend and girlfriend who tried this last time, they found her by a bookcase.”
“A bookcase,” Harper repeated derisively, closing her book to theatrically scan their surroundings. “That narrows it down.”
Ignoring Harper’s mockery, the son of Apollo paused suddenly, his dark eyes glazing over with concentration. His hearing dulled, the surrounding footsteps and rustling pages fading into the background as if muffled by a thick curtain. Amon searched for the energy signature of the monster he knew lurked among the mortals. It was a subtle shift, like trying to discern a whisper in a crowded room, but he felt a faint, abnormal energy hanging somewhere up above.
“I say we try the second floor,” he said as he snapped out of the tracking trance, offering no other explanation to Harper.
“We could do that, sure,” Harper said, words laced with blatant doubt at his sudden certainty. “I say we try asking the Visitor’s Center. I know she's supposed to be disguised by the Mist, but the librarians have to have noticed something.”
“You can go ahead and do that.” The small smirk from earlier was now spreading across his face. “But you can’t be upset if I find the sphinx and solve her riddle before you even get there.”
Harper rolled her eyes, but she made no attempt to stop Amon from walking towards the staircase. After a moment she set off after him, footsteps even against the wooden steps.
Up on the second floor, Amon moved quietly, his dark eyes scanning the hallway for anything out of the ordinary.
I know you’re up here.
He stopped at every heavy-looking mahogany door, peering through each muted glass insert. He felt the air grow thicker with ominous energy at every step, so he knew the monster must be near.
One of the doors was slightly ajar, a suspiciously open invitation. Or a trap. The dark-haired boy caught sight of a cat-shaped figure on the other side before ducking down and motioning sharply for Harper’s attention. He unsheathed his kopis from his belt, bracing himself for confrontation.
Harper crouched against the wall, hand on the hilt of her sword as she tried to peek through the frosted glass pane. She held her breath, ready to move at Amon’s signal. He held out three fingers and then put them down one by one. When he hit zero, they stood in unison, flinging the door open together.
When Amon and Harper stepped inside, the body of the sphinx lay motionless on the floor.
The rest of the room was in disarray, littered with disheveled chairs and broken bits of chalk. A window on the other side of the room had been forced open, the curtain fluttering in the wind.
“No way,” Harper said. The door clicked shut behind her as she pushed past Amon into the room and kneeled to study the monster’s limp figure.
The sphinx had the large body of a lion and the eerily human face of a middle-aged woman, hair tied back in a severe bun and foundation caked onto her high cheekbones. Fangs jutted out of her red-painted lips, and eagle wings sprouted out of the space between her shoulder blades, folded tight against her back.
“Monsters dissolve into dust when they die,” Amon remarked, keeping his distance as he watched the subtle rise and fall of the monster’s ribs. “She must have been knocked unconscious.”
“Right,” Harper agreed, “The real question is who. And why.”
She hovered a hand over the cat's shoulder, set on rousing her. Before she made contact, the sphinx's eyes snapped open, round irises surrounded by shocking yellow sclera.
"Slain!" she wailed. Harper staggered backwards. Amon’s arms instinctively reached out to catch her, but she didn’t stumble near enough to make contact. "I am slain!"
With feline grace, the sphinx rose to her feet. A white tape outline marked the placement of her previously prone body on the floor. The muscles in her legs rippled as she paced in front of Harper and Amon, massive velvet paws silent against the carpet.
"And you, my dear heroes," she roared, eyes narrowed in an accusatory glare, "were too late to save me!"
The sphinx sniffed, composing herself. She leapt onto a wooden table. The table legs creaked underneath her weight. "Fear not," she tutted, "Fear not. For you can still avenge me. If you are able to determine the murderer and their weapon, then I will obtain justice, and all will be right with the world.”
“Your riddle is a murder mystery,” Harper said, confusion written across her face. Amon raised an eyebrow. The sphinx chuffed, a low rumbling sound reminiscent of laughter.
“You sought that hackneyed question about man? The Sphinx that the storytellers remember is far less adaptive than I am. I am not interested in your ability to regurgitate the information you have read. Nor am I interested in taking advantage of the nonsensical rules of your English language.”
“I am here to satisfy my own curiosity: does modern mankind still possess the ability to engage in deductive reasoning, or do they only seek to make themselves appear intelligent? Do not speak,” the sphinx said, a pointed look at Harper, who had opened her mouth to interject, “You will answer my questions when you play my game.”
“The potential murder weapons are scattered throughout this room,” she continued, leaping off the table. “And the suspects have already provided their testimonies for your review. Rest assured, I have made certain that their statements contain no lies.”
A shimmering, translucent energy began to swirl around Harper and Amon’s feet, beginning to take shape as holograms with a flickering, ephemeral quality.
A projection of Cerberus materialized first, his three massive heads snarling and snapping in unison. A ribbon of text appeared by his paws to translate his growling: "I was guarding the entrance, my duty unbroken."
Next came the Minotaur, his towering form pacing within the labyrinth on Crete. He snorted and pawed at the ground, the holographic maze shifting behind him in the background. The translation text appeared: "Confined within these walls, no escape for me."
Lamia's projection flickered into view, her serpentine lower half coiled around her as she wept in her cave. She glanced mournfully at the holographic images of her lost children: "My grief consumes me, innocent of this crime."
A shimmering Hydra emerged next, its nine heads snapping at invisible foes. Each one moved independently, showcasing its ability to act on its own. The translation for the hissing head at the center read: "Engaged in battle, I could not have killed."
Typhon materialized with a thunderous roar, his colossal form fighting against restraints under Mount Etna. His immense size and power were palpable, even in scaled down holographic form: "Bound by chains of the earth, I could not have roamed free."
Echidna’s hologram appeared last, her form a mix of human and serpent, lounging in a dimly lit cave. She looked directly at the viewers, her expression both defiant and amused. The translation text by her side read: “I dwell in my lair, uninvolved in such petty affairs.”
The sphinx swiped at the last projection as it faded, deeming her handiwork satisfactory. “There is not enough information to deduce the killer using evidence alone. Because I am fair, I will provide you with three hints before your final guess. Be forewarned: if you fail to provide a correct answer, you will both perish. Is this understood?”
Harper spoke. “If we answer correctly, you will leave this library for good.”
“If you answer correctly, I will permanently relocate. It is a preferable option in comparison to another death. Now, do you agree to the terms and conditions?” the sphinx said primly, regarding Harper and Amon with casual disdain. The pair nodded. “Very well.”
The sphinx dropped onto the floor and let her head loll back, pretending to be dead once more.

Soon after the sphinx had laid back down, Harper and Amon began to scour the room. A small pile of prospective murder weapons formed on a nearby table.
“We can easily eliminate the siren song,” Amon rushed to speak over Harper, eyeing the small glass vial of swirling gray matter that they had found nestled behind a row of books on metalworking. “It is a luring mechanism, not a murder weapon.”
“We could rule out Cerberus’ fang too,” he pointed at the enormous yellowing tooth, about the size of the small baseball bat Amon used to have when he played in the little league. “If we take the hologram as ground truth, all of his teeth were intact there.”
Harper used her kopis to prod at the stained tunic that had been hidden in a desk drawer, being careful not to touch it with bare skin. “The Shirt of Nessus is a viable option. It would be easy for any of the suspects to lay it down and wait for the hydra venom to kick in.”
“I am not ready to rule out the bronze sword either,” Amon noted. “Monsters have access to heroes and the weapons they leave behind.”
“Most of these monsters don’t even have opposable thumbs,” Harper argued, running a hand over the sword they had found by a power outlet. ”They don’t have the dexterity to wield a sword.”
“I do not imagine that the technicality would be that granular.”
Harper laughed. “Oh, the number of teeth in the Cerberus hologram tell all, but we’re drawing the line at opposable thumbs.”
“I suppose that that logic would also rule out the harpy talon and the encyclopedia easily as well,” Amon admitted. “Which would be too easy.”
“I’m just that good at logical deduction.” Harper said proudly. “If my assumption is correct, then the poisoned shirt is the only one that makes sense.”
Amon scoffed, folding his arms across his chest as his dark eyes bored into Harper. “It would not necessarily matter what our first guess would be anyway.”
“Can you provide an argument for any other weapon? Or are you intent on purposely making an illogical guess?” she countered cooly.
“Fine,” Amon acquiesced. “Since you are so adamant about the shirt, we can guess the shirt, and be incorrect. It does not matter. What about the suspects themselves?” He clasped his hands behind his back, his steps measured as he started to pace across the plush red carpet of the room.
Harper smiled, smugly accepting her victory. She strode towards a chalkboard at the side of the study room, inscribing the list of weapons and suspects with a fresh piece of white chalk.
“All of them have alibis,“ she began. “I think that-”
“Some make more sense than others,” Amon spoke over Harper, irritated by her minor triumph. “Cerberus, for example, is under the service of Hades. He says he did not leave his post, and he could not have done so without permission or dire consequences on the process of the dead.”
Harper silently seethed as Amon spoke, meeting his rationale with reluctant acceptance before starting again in a louder, exaggerated tone. “I think that the ones with the shakiest alibis are Lamia, the Minotaur, Typhon, and Echidna. No witnesses can confirm their locations. In fact, Lamia provides no location at all.” Harper circled those names. She looked at Amon with a forced smile, allowing him a moment to provide more commentary.
“Lamia? Well,” there was a hint of mockery in the sneer that tugged on the corner of Amon’s lips. “I would imagine her emotions rendered her… Too fragile and unstable to carry out such an act.”
“You’re kidding,” Harper scoffed, searching Amon's face for the slightest hint that he was joking. “Her grief is what moved her to kill children in the first place. I doubt it would suddenly be incapacitating. She’s just appealing to your sense of superiority, and I can’t believe that you’re falling for it.”
"It is not about superiority. It is about logic," Amon retorted, bristling in defense. “You cannot deny that emotions cloud judgment. Maybe the sphinx wants us to leverage our knowledge about her past crimes to reason that she was not thinking clearly in this case either.” Amon had no other evidence that pointed towards Lamia as the top suspect, but he had dug deep enough where he was now ready to stand firm in his reasoning.
“Murder,” Harper countered, eyes narrowed in a venomous stare, “-does not require you to think clearly. Haven’t you heard of a crime of passion? If anyone’s judgment is clouded right now, Amon, it’s yours.”
The son of Apollo squared his shoulders, his expression hardening. "I understand the concept of crimes of passion, thank you.” His dark-eyed stare returned Harper's gaze, unflinching at the intensity. “But our investigation must be rooted in facts, not assumptions based on emotions. And the facts are,” he resumed his pacing once more, “that Lamia cannot be the culprit, as she is the only suspect that openly admits to being innocent of this crime.”
Amon had considered this from the very start, but provoking Harper like this had proved to be far more amusing.
Harper crossed Lamia’s name off of the board. She swallowed down her anger, fighting the urge to continue pressing the issue in favor of returning to their list of suspects. She pointed her piece of chalk at the next names on the list. “The Minotaur and Typhon are trapped, or so they say. How could they have done anything?”
“Their alibis revolve around their inability to escape,” Amon pointed out. “Not that they were unable to commit murder. The Labyrinth, in fact,” he raised a dramatic finger, “has several moving passages that could have permitted the Minotaur to move and commit murder without an official escape.”
Harper considered his words for a long moment, trying to find the flaw in his reasoning. Seeing none, she placed a dot next to the Minotaurs's name.
“Typhon escaped his prison in the Second Titanomachy. He could do it again,” Harper said thoughtfully. “Though I don’t understand why he would do something like this. He’s the Sphinx's father. The same goes for Echidna.”
Amon, who had been nodding at Harper’s assessment of Typhon’s abilities, pursed his lips at her observation of parentage. “I do not see how this could possibly be relevant to the logical puzzle at hand.”
Harper spoke slowly, as if the answer was obvious. “What motive would they have to kill their own daughter?”
“Harper,” Amon began curtly, folding his arms across his chest. “Half of the Greek myths revolve around immortals killing their own children.”
“Then we should pick one of them,” Harper declared, pivoting her argument instead of admitting her logical blunder. “They would have more of a motive than the rest of the suspects, if anything.”
“The Minotaur can escape much more easily than Typhon can. Motive aside, it is the most logical guess,” Amon concluded, adjusting his collar haughtily. “I will remind you that we picked your choice of weapon. It is only fair that I select the monster.”
“Fine.” Harper agreed, her gaze stormy as she turned back towards the sphinx. “We accuse the Minotaur of killing the sphinx with the Shirt of Nessus.”
The sphinx opened one eye. “None of these are correct!”

Echidna	Cerberus Fang

“Two more hints left.” Harper announced, crossing off the Minotaur’s name and the poisoned shirt on the chalkboard with a flourish. It was not ideal that her initial logical deductions had been incorrect, but at least Amon had also been wrong. She couldn't resist a snide comment. “I knew it wasn’t the Minotaur.”
“So you still think it’s Typhon.” Choosing to ignore Harper’s taunting, Amon rested his hand on a nearby desk, studying the lists on the chalkboard before him. He had taken the Minotaur error as a personal failure, and was determined to get the suspect right this time.
“I do.”
“Why not Echidna?”
“She’s too emotional to kill someone, obviously.” Harper said sarcastically. “Her frail female arms are probably too weak to even hold a weapon.”
The dark-haired boy rolled his eyes. “Objectively,” he began, ignoring her quip once more, “Typhon could not have lied about his inability to roam free. A natural disaster freed him from Mount Etna during the Second Titanomachy, but he could not recreate those conditions on his own.” Though his tone remained aloof, it was clear that Amon was relishing in the opportunity to flaunt his mythology knowledge.
“Maybe,” Harper argued, stubborn. “But Echidna’s statement was less ambiguous than his. Typhon just explains his predicament; he doesn't provide a real claim. Echidna explicitly says she was not involved.” She thought for a few more moments, rolling the piece of chalk in her hands. “Echidna could have released him? They would be accomplices.”
Amon shook his head. “There was a single murderer. Not two. The sphinx would not lie about the premise of the game.”
Harper stared at him coldly, but could offer no rebuttal. She turned her attention to the board. “Typhon is a giant. He’s capable of using the sword.”
“But the specificity of Echidna’s denial is still incredibly suspicious. ‘Petty affairs’ is a strange way to phrase a murder. But,” Amon added reluctantly, “I understand the logic behind Typhon. I suppose it is your turn to choose the monster, and we will still have another guess to work with.”
“As for the weapon,” he continued, “I still think the sword is the most viable option, given that the siren song and the fang can be ruled out and the shirt with the venom was, well,” Amon pursed his lips, fighting the urge to smile, “incorrect.”
Before Harper could interject, Amon turned towards the sphinx at the front of the room. “We accuse Typhon of killing the sphinx with a Celestial Bronze Sword.”
“One of these is correct!”
Hint #3

Suspects	Weapons
Cerberus	The Shirt of Nessus
The Minotaur	Siren Song
Lamia	Harpy Talon
The Hydra	Celestial Bronze Sword
Typhon	A-C Encyclopedia
Echidna	Cerberus Fang

“Aha!” Amon raised a triumphant finger before pointing it at Harper. “I told you,” he gloated, “Typhon had no escape route.”
“You were right,” Harper admitted, staring down at the carpet so that she would not have to look at his smug expression.
“Let’s get this over with,” she muttered, and turned back towards the lioness with crossed arms. “We accuse Echidna of killing the sphinx with a Celestial Bronze Sword”
“One of these is correct,” the sphinx announced. Her mouth twisted in amusement, fangs bared in a menacing smile.

You are not recommended to try spells to bring a lover back if you are going through the following: You know that your relationship with your ex is toxic and the best painful option to take in this is to move on. It is not a good choice to be in a relationship that is un-natural, one that is built on witchcraft. The love spark as to be their at all times.
Even the most powerful love spell may not fulfill the things that are required for a real relationship to be in place. Love should be natural and if your partner looses interest in you, its better that you let them follow the heart. If one door closes, expect another open infront of you.
Therefore witchcraft or love spells should not be the ultimate solution to mending a broken heart in a relationship, one has to make love exist naturally by doing the right things to your partner, the things that will recapture the inner feelings of love and affection as you did in the start of the relationship.
Only if and when all has been tried and failed to work that one should order for my love spells that actually work, and indeed this will be the last nail in the coffin to fix your troubled relationship permanently.

I was shopping around for some financial stuff, and Navy Fed popped up. I had an account years ago, but closed it due to work like and things. One phone call later, new accounts setup, and my login shows that I have been a member since 1994. Now, to adjust my direct deposits.
I remember setting up the account when we docked in Hong Kong.

Chapter 407
​
Daniel Inoue is a Japanese-American.
​
He served as a Navy SEAL and awakened as an A-rank Hunter at the age of thirty. After retiring from the military, he found employment in a private military company where he fully utilized his capabilities.
​
Mercenary work suited Inoue to an extent. Though it required spending half the year in Middle Eastern and African conflict zones, the high pay and extended downtime compensated well.
​
This time, however, he was sent to the monster wave in China.
​
「Hey, Ninja. What are you thinking about?」
​
Inoue squinted at his colleague's abrupt inquiry.
​
「Shut up, Sam. Aren’t you tired of that damn Ninja bullshit?」
​
「So what. You should be used to it by now.」
​
「It's annoying. Try being called Ninja or Samurai since you were seven. It's maddening.」
​
「I think it would be cool.」
​
「Damn Yankee bastard.」
​
「Thanks for that. I'm a Yankees fan, you know.」
​
A slight Caucasian man chuckled at Inoue's complaints.
​
「Just accept it. It must be fate. Your abilities are exactly like those of a ninja.」
​
「Damn it.」
​
Inoue whispered a curse to himself.
​
Indeed, the powers Inoue gained post-awakening were geared toward stealth.
​
This branded him as a ninja, making him a master of espionage and assassination.
​
「Didn’t you say your girlfriend is pregnant? How about Naruto for the baby's name?」
​
Inoue flipped him off.
​
「I'll think about it if you name your son Sasuke.」
​
「Oh, not bad.」
​
Their banter provoked laughter among their peers.
​
The previously tense atmosphere lightened, and Inoue and his colleague exchanged brief smiles.
​
They had been partners for years; their recent banter was almost a routine to defuse stress before their mission.
​
'Being too tense usually leads to mistakes.'
​
This was true for combat, but even more so for espionage missions like this.
​
In a land where neither communication nor magic was possible, and the adversary was not a foolish and cruel rebel leader but the unprecedented monster wave triggered by the Arch Lich.
​
'Regardless of how favorable the situation appears, you cannot be complacent.'
​
Inoue, lost in thought, addressed the twenty intelligence agents gathered before him.
​
「Alright, from now on, we'll split into pairs for infiltration. Communication will be through hand signals, and if it's urgent, fire the flare you have. You've all memorized your objectives and routes thoroughly, haven't you?」
​
「Yes.」
​
「Good, then... let's meet back here in three hours. Dismissed.」
​
As Inoue initiated the operation, the agents nodded and dispersed swiftly in various directions, vanishing into the shadows. Sam, Inoue's partner, motioned subtly with his chin.
​
「Shall we get going too, Ninja?」
​
「Yeah, you damn comfortable Yankee.」
​
「Don't be like that. Your skills are the best. In three hours, you'll probably even know the color of the Arch Lich's underwear.」
​
「...I really hope so.」
​
Inoue exhaled quietly and began to move through the thick, damp fog enveloping Suining City.
​
​
​
* * *
​
​
​
The forward march of the five fronts had stalled.
​
200 km from Suining City, near the Arch Lich's stronghold, a familiar face approached our reorganized and resting group.
​
「Korean friends, how have you been?」
​
I felt a significant surge of energy nearby, which turned out to be him. I fist-bumped Magic Johnson in response.
​
"Fairly well."
​
「Jin. My lovely miracle boy. I've missed you.」
​
"Sorry, but could you drop the 'lovely'?"
​
「Then I'll call you Crazy Boy. After all, you did do something crazy.」
​
Magic Johnson grinned and added,
​
「It was a heroically daring act. Just like Choi here.」
​
Mr. Choi, who was carefully tending to the [Hero's Soul], bowed his head slightly.
​
"It's good to see you again, Mr. Johnson."
​
「Choi, don't be so stiff.」
​
"......!"
​
"......!"
​
「Of course, I meant the atmosphere.」
​
Magic Johnson laughed heartily.
​
At this point, it was clear he was enjoying our reactions. Although on the outside he didn't look it, inside he was full of mischief.
​
We knew by now that everything was a joke to him.
​
Mr. Choi, habitually engaging in Kegel exercises whenever we met Magic Johnson, chuckled and inquired.
​
"What brings you here?"
​
「Urgent summons from the headquarters. It's an important matter.」
​
I suddenly furrowed my brows and muttered,
​
"It feels like déjà vu. Haven’t we seen this unfold before?"
​
「Don't worry, Jin. It won't be like last time.」
​
Last time referred to the incident where the fronts were attacked while the S-rank Hunters were deployed elsewhere.
​
Now, with the fronts consolidated, even if an incident arises, we're close enough to manage effectively.
​
'If they're not using communications, it must be a very important matter.'
​
As our allied forces gained ground and the monsters retreated, the Arch Lich's territory had shrunk to just Suining City. So now, both communications and magic were fully operational.
​
"Do you know why we're gathering?"
​
「No. But I can assure you, it's not going to be something pleasant. I'd stake my life on it.」
​
"..."
​
Please, don’t make life-and-death promises over such things. Offer us some optimism.
​
Yet the ever-assured Magic Johnson extended his hand to me and Mr. Choi.
​
「Anyway, everyone's already there. You're the last guests.」
​
"Then please, Mr. Johnson."
​
Mr. Choi grasped his hand without hesitation, and knowing Magic Johnson’s teleportation well, I shuddered as I clasped his fingers.
​
"Please ensure a safe travel...... Aaagh!"
​
Swoosh.
​
It felt like I was being crushed like a soda can, and then being hurled through space.
​
"Aaaaagh..."
​
"..."
​
"..."
​
Damn it. Why here of all places?
​
With roughly ten pairs of eyes quietly scrutinizing me, including the astonished stares of S-rank Hunters and high-ranking Chinese generals, I ceased my screaming and discreetly took a seat.
​
"Shall we start the meeting?"
​
After a brief pause, Wei Feng-Hu, the Minister of Defense, spoke up.
​
「…Then let's begin the meeting.」
​
The meeting primarily revolved around the testimony of the sole surviving member of the intelligence team.
​
「Daniel Inoue, who was in charge of the intelligence team, has reportedly escaped from Suining City after exceeding the planned operation time by eight hours. He discovered a monster legion numbering around 30,000.」
​
30,000...
​
It's a substantial force, yet it falls within our anticipated parameters.
​
The Arch Lich's monster legion began its retreat a week prior, enduring substantial casualties.
​
"Judging by the expression on the Minister of National Defense's face, it seems that's not everything."
​
Few here could address Wei Feng-Hu, the Minister of National Defense, with such ease.
​
And Lee Jeong-Ryong, my personal feelings aside, certainly had the standing to do so.
​
「Mr. Lee's point is correct. We estimated 30,000 based on direct observation, but the actual number could be...」
​
"Twice that, perhaps even more."
​
「That's right.」
​
"…Hmm."
​
Whispers spread across the room. We suspected they had held back forces for a final stand, but not to this magnitude.
​
Wei Feng-Hu spoke gravely,
​
「However, most of the monsters are of medium or low rank. That's somewhat comforting.」
​
「That's true for us as well, Wei Feng-Hu.」
​
Prince Felix nodded at Fei Chen’s remark, who was quietly sipping her drink.
​
「Just as she says. Although a lot of forces have joined us, victory is not yet certain.」
​
「Damn it. No matter how many of those monsters you kill, they just don't end.」
​
I couldn't help but laught at Wu Hei-Xing's grumbling.
​
「Why are you laughing?」
​
"Because it's funny, friend."
​
「What?」
​
"People might think you've been fighting hard if they heard you. You're the bastard who tried to detour during the monster legion attack a week ago because it seemed too risky."
​
"…!"
​
His expression was priceless.
​
Apparently, Wu Hei-Xing thought his cowardice had gone unnoticed, but his disgrace was already well-known across all fronts.
​
"I know you've had it tough, but don’t whine in front of me or anyone else. It's annoying."
​
「Eek...!」
​
"Are you a businessman? Why do you keep squeaking about profits?" [Note: the sound that Wu Hei-Xing made sounds like an "Eek", but can also translate to "profit" in Korean.]
​
Wu Hei-Xing, red with rage, twitched as if ready to lunge, but he restrained himself at the last moment.
​
The sting of defeat lingers.
​
A plant coddled and cherished throughout its life will falter even under a mild chill.
​
However, there are plants of a wholly different nature.
​
For example... Mr. Choi, who is currently seated beside me.
​
"Both of you, stop."
​
Wu Hei-Xing glanced at Mr. Choi, who was attempting to calm him with a composed voice, and scoffed.
​
「Are you ordering me around?」
​
"I'm sorry if you took it that way, Wu Hei-Xing."
​
「You...」
​
Unwavering, Mr. Choi’s calm demeanor prompted Wu Hei-Xing to rise sharply.
​
Or, at least, he attempted to.
​
"Sit down."
​
「...!」
​
The authority in the command rooted him to his spot.
​
The eyes of other S-rank Hunters shifted towards me in astonishment.
​
I met Lee Jeong-Ryong's intense gaze briefly and clarified.
​
"Just so there's no misunderstanding, that was an order."
​
「Y-you...!」
​
"Sit down. This is the last warning."
​
Swoosh!
​
The surge of energy caused Wu Hei-Xing’s lower lip to quiver.
​
He might even be considered a prodigy in the realm of Murim.
​
Certainly, achieving S-rank Hunter status in his thirties indicates notable prowess.
​
'But it's only half-baked.'
​
Awakening is akin to a sudden windfall. He won the lottery and was endowed with exceptional abilities and mana as soon as he turned twenty.
​
But what would happen if such a person did not cultivate his Qi and fiercly practice Transcendent martial arts techniques like a traditional martial artist would?
​
While mastering martial arts might enhance his technical abilities, he is likely to falter before achieving such proficiency.
​
His dedication and resolve are third-rate compared to his innate talent.
​
"Stop it."
​
It was the calm, resonant voice of Lee Jeong-Ryong that cut through the tension.
​
Despite being well into his sixties, the snake appeared middle-aged. His face was tinged with amusement as he stared at me.
​
"I thought you had only grown in skill, but your murderous intent has deepened as well."
​
I met his gaze with indifferent eyes and replied,
​
"As I was rolling around from place to place, I've become more poisonous."
​
"I've heard that the western front was particularly fierce."
​
"That's not incorrect. Would you like to visit the western front?"
​
"I must respectfully decline. Imagine how fierce it must have been if only three survived."
​
"…!"
​
"The older I get, the more scared I become. Haha."
​
A chill ran through my veins.
​
Visions of that dreadful day flashed before me, and unwittingly, a faint smile crossed my lips.
​
"What are you trying to say?"
​
"Rather than harboring hostility among allies, let's think about something more productive. We should strategize for the final battle. Jin Tae-Kyung, what do you think?"
​
I tapped the armrest of my chair lightly.
​
It was an uncomfortable realization, but Lee Jeong-Ryong was right on target.
​
It was time to address the imminent battle.
​
A strategy emerged in my thoughts.
​
"A suicide squad."
​
"A suicide squad?"
​
Eyes shifted towards me. Some nodded in agreement, others displayed unease.
​
Yet, both my reason and instinct told me:
​
This was the optimal strategy to minimize casualties and ensure victory.
​
"Let's gather the elites and strike at the head."
​
Once the Arch Lich is defeated, the undead legion will collapse.

So my partner and I have been going through it for a while (been posting here for a bit thank you all for your support) and my partner I feel is just finding every little thing about what happened previously to stay angry.
I was in an awful relationship before meeting my current partner (I consider him someone that’s got A LOT and I mean A LOT of inexperience in the romance or sexual department) with my last relationship it was opened up forcefully after my ex made me get a forced abortion and I was emotionally ruined by what happened so the relationship was opened up and I ended up meeting my current partner.
While I was trying to work things out with my Ex my current partner knew of the situation and what was going on and that I was trying for reconciliation with my ex but it never worked out and that ended. Clear lines weren’t made he hadn’t asked me to be his girlfriend and he still had dating apps on his phone and I slept with someone in August and eventually ended up ghosted by this person after trying to be their friend and see if they were okay (they worked IT for the Navy and he got sent out and hadn’t heard from him or known if he was safe, I had a finsta with the name of an old coworker that I used to well stalk people on and once I saw he posted on his story I was angry and stopped trying for a friendship, and I think about it now which doesn’t make me any better but I realize lots of people just go no contact after hooking up and that thought didn’t cross my mind from a social perspective) and that was were I made a huge mistake and will acknowledge that and have and will continue to be apologetic for it.
I slept with that person because I didn’t know that I was the first POC that my current partner had ever been with and I wanted to be with someone who had experience being with someone of color (all the men in the story are Asian American if anyone was wondering and I am Black American). I had what any Black women feared of of being a fetish for someone that never even tried or talked to or followed other people like me his TikTok following was filled with lighter complexion women and those with larger breasts than mine and BBLS so to say I felt insecure and inadequate was an understatement I brought this to attention after asking other Black women what to do and they said to get over it and give him a chance so I did. I stopped with the finsta but didn’t delete the search on it because I just didn’t use it anymore and I considered that the crack in our relationship because it hurt him really bad he found out in November after there was no contact for about 3 months between the two of us (I’m integrated in the Apple system so I have an iPhone and an iMac I deleted his number and blocked him from my phone but you can’t on iMacs, he went through my computer while I was in Utah for training for work and that’s when he saw the messages between us and I told him the full story I’m telling everyone here).
We sat down and I was silent because this was his moment to be angry and to ask questions and be angry and decide what he wanted to do from here now ( I didn’t apologize which I should have but I felt like I had already made the mistake of sleeping with this person so the damage was done even if I didn’t know where we actually stood I hurt this person so I tried to make him feel like he was the only person who had my eye after sleeping with NavyBlue dude).
He decided to still be in a relationship with me which I was thankful for and grateful and just knew I had to continue to makeup for what I did. I would ask him how’s he doing and how’s he feeling hoping he would open up or tell me if anything is bothering him. He did ask why again and I told him the same full reason and that if I could change it I would I’d go back and tell myself that it’s not worth it; it really isn’t.
He harbored resentment without talking to me or opening up at all he never told me what was going on with him and never showed any emotions or asked any more questions, we had just gotten done having sex I was sore at this point (like I said before he has a lot of inexperience sexually so he would think sex is supposed to last hours because he had a large porn addiction which I never knew about and it only escalated further down the line) he asked if he could finish himself off which I had no issue with and I’d didnt really have an issue with the use of porn either but he pulled out his phone and started watching porn infront of me and proceeded to get himself off I felt very uncomfortable and told him he could have at least went to the bathroom as a courtesy which he realized he could have and said he would. I was feeling really off with my body at this point because of what I had did and just the constant feeling of I’m not what my partner wants because I don’t look like anyone he watches or gets off too so I said let’s just work on us and we’ll take care of our needs ourselves.
I had no idea what I gotten myself into at that point because I had no idea how bad his addiction had also ran he was in the bathroom for hours at a time. I hadn’t started noticing till we just started spending less and less time together because of him working and then coming back home and his bathroom activities (all in the span of a few days really). I had to use the bathroom one day and knocked on the door and tried to open it because he’s never locked it before and gave him time to finish but he hadn’t “finished” so he tried to walk out and hug me with his hard on still there I felt completely disgusted with myself and gross and dirty.
So we just stopped having sex again for a while till I feel somewhat comfortable with my body or when I was really in the mood I also tried putting everything in the back of my mind psyching myself that I’m with him and he chose me. Id ask him for confirmation that I’m still pretty and he still likes me and he says yeah so I start to feel somewhat confident in myself again I hadn’t been eyeing anyone else he had the passwords and logins to all my social media and phone and computers but something inside of one day in February said to look in his phone and he had downloaded tinder hinge and bumble (which I didn’t find out till a week later he downloaded it) all back again and was using them while he was at work and deleting them before coming home.
I asked him if I hadn’t caught him would he have still continued and he said yes he would’ve. I was hurt and crushed but still stayed with him because I wanted to I knew that love takes effort and I was willing to try still for this person. I ended up finding out I was pregnant a couple days later and before Valentine’s Day. He didn’t stop he continued to watch corn and go on dating sites almost every app out there imaginable he had it on his phone from those to hardcore messaging websites to call apps and talked to women in the bathroom while we were both home. I was devastated each time I found out something new and continued to beg him to stop and had told him the energy your putting towards people who don’t know you exist could go towards us even from finding out the dating apps I had been telling him this.
It eventually got to point where things got physical unfortunately and he had been sleeping on the futon in my living room for 2 months and I ended up tasing him trying to get him to wake up in my mind to what what was going I was begging and pleading atp and seeing that he was still watching OF girls on TikTok the last video that broke the camels back for me was a video of a girl with a BBL twerking and I sent it to our TikTok chat and said since he likes to watch these girls do this I’ll send out that number of videos for how many videos he was watching on TikTok so I sent 4 people a video of me shaking my ass to them and he said that was what finally got him to stop watching other videos and to put the effort into us.
Everyday I try to approach the day with it’s a new day and to be open and vulnerable and communicate with him and to let him know my fears. We’ve now got an open phone policy and tell each other when we’ve went through the others phone and I see he’s upset about the open relationship I was in last year in his notes recently saying he thought he’d just have to tolerate that I slept with him but at the same time I was in the open relationship and after that relationship he was paying for videos and conversations on OF.
So I’m frustrated because I get how he can be upset with me being in that relationship but I told him and gave him the option of not talking to me and finding someone else and he chose to stay and talk to me while I had no knowledge of what he was doing so how does he find what he did okay paying women for months while we’re talking but he upset about a relationship that wasn’t working and ended. No matter what I’m going to let him feel his feelings because those are his and he’s entitled to them but it’s so frustrating feeling like I had just been fucking up from the beginning and he hasn’t. Like I feel like I’m just going to painted as a villain for part of his story that he has to learn how to live with and I just wonder what more is there for me to do to show him he’s the only one that I want if he’s not willing to understand that yes that did happen yes there were mistakes on both sides yes we’ve both stained the tshirt with coffee but it’s okay because we can work on it together and make a nice tie dye shirt to where you can’t even see the ugly stains anymore from all the beauty that’s in it now.

Major Potts and Captain Blakely sat in the small meeting room they had chosen as they went through the records one last time. “Are you sure this is a good idea, Major?” Blakely asked her, and she shook her head. “No, I’m not. But it’s the best idea we’ve got and we ought to give it a try.” Before the last of the group had arrived, the two had finished reviewing the records of the 5 women before them…
(suggested music: https://youtu.be/nLHDofvU5gA?si=skxyZ2Y966uAb2Gs )
First up, 1^st Lieutenant-select Idena Verona. Her record was, in a word, exemplary. Cool, logical, determined to the point of ruthlessness, deeply loyal, and an officer from a long line of military service - the daughter of an Imperial Navy captain. Verona was listed as an expert tactician and crack shot with a sniper rifle, but the only problem was that she had no actual combat experience outside the raids on Westbridge. A dark-haired woman with deep tan skin and dark eyes, she had arrived on time in a perfect inspection ready uniform, as expected.
Next was Sergeant Virginia Woolworth, a veteran soldier and former correctional officer who consistently shot “expert” or higher on every single rifle range training course. She was tough, no-nonsense, and physically strong, protective and reliable in the extreme, having been counted on to assist Potts before in the arrest of Commissar Gardner and his would-be attackers. She was at least a known quantity in the team’s favor.
Third was a woman whose past couldn’t be more opposite than Woolworth, Corporal Lucy Raycraft, a tattooed athletic blonde soldier and former gang member with a rap sheet longer than most troopers’ service records. Raycraft was an expert in melee combat, scouting, and stealth, and was generally considered to be extremely dangerous. She smiled wryly at the Major and Captain as she arrived - with her usual sense of dark humor, she would no doubt find it very funny to be working under Sergeant Woolworth, who had once been an overseer at her place of imprisonment.
Corporal Rachel Darling’s record was best left to speak in its own words. “Despite her mousy black hair and unassuming glasses-wearing appearance, Corporal Darling may be one of the most unstable and dangerous women in the regiment. A convicted arsonist who claims her sister’s ex-husband “had it coming” and that’s why she blew up his hab-block with a stolen melta bomb, she is, however, also an expert in explosives and heavy weapons of peerless skill.”
The final member of the team was Specialist Violette Wake-Stewart, a prim and proper-looking pretty redhead. Wake-Stewart was trained as a combat medic by service specialty, but she was also known to be an excellent amateur singer and actor (which ran in her family for three generations). The only problem was that she was also known to be a compulsive liar, which threatened to make her as problematic and distracting to her allies as she was to potential enemies.
Once the last of them arrived (Darling had been the last to show up), Major Potts signaled for the sentry to shut the door, which she did. “Thank you all for coming,” she said by way of introduction. “Some of you know each other, some of you don’t. But you’re all here for the same reason,” she continued. “The regiment needs to explore new methods of warfare to fight against new and existing enemies on this world. You five have been chosen as the first experiment, the first foray into a more…unconventional side of warfare by our doctrinal standards.” She looked to Blakely, who cleared her throat. “Put simply, we want you to learn how to fight as a team, but not fight like Praetorians.”
Raycraft looked to her left and right and grinned widely, clearly pleased by the prospect, while Verona nodded concisely. “Yes, ma’am,” she said obediently. “Our mission?” “Your mission is to form a functioning commando team out of the five of you, Lieutenant,” Potts said. “Once your team is ready we intend to deploy you into the mountains and surrounding terrain to hunt down the troublesome Auxilia officers and their T’au overlords.”
Woolworth coughed quietly. “Sergeant?” “Ma’am, how long do we have, respectfully?” she asked, looking sidelong at Raycraft and Darling. “As soon as you can,” Potts said with a slight sigh. “I need a functioning group of soldiers who can respond to what’s going on as soon as possible. This regiment cannot afford to be stagnant any longer.” She shifted her attention to Verona. “Idena, I’m promoting you to 1^st Lieutenant, effective immediately – Yeoman division has already been informed, don’t worry – and making you commanding officer of Team ARTEMIS. Your first task will be to find gear suitable for your work. Supply division will comply with whatever you need, Lieutenant Leary has guaranteed that.” She scanned the team as a whole. “This isn’t a normal mission for any of us. But I’m confident you’re the right women for the job. If anyone can pull off this sort of unladylike warfare – stealth, tight tactics, knife work, sniping, and more - I think it’s you. We’ll be in touch with more orders soon. Good luck.”
As soon as the team had saluted and left, they gathered around outside to discuss their plan with their new commanding officer. “Right. Well, first things first, we need to get new kit,” Idena said, thinking through the tasks ahead. “What did you have in mind?” Woolworth asked her curiously. “I’m not sure,” she admitted as the group proceeded toward the supply warehouse. “Let’s see what they have first and go from there.” "Nice to just get what we need first and not have to swipe it later," Raycraft smirked at Woolworth. "Beats the old days, wouldn't you say, Sarge?" "I'm sure there won't be any 'swiping' of regimental resources required, Corporal," she shot back, but stopped at a sideways look from Idena. It took the better part of the rest of the day to find out what they would need and how they planned to set it up, and then another day to get all of the gear prepared – but after that, Team ARTEMIS gathered again outside their barracks dressed fully in new uniforms and armor, attracting curious glances from nearby soldiers.
The storekeepers had provided them with a stock of extra black and red jumpsuits in the same style that the tank crews wore, which Idena ordered the uniform maintenance and supply division to modify with extra fabric and stitching, as well as tailoring them better to fit each of the five soldiers. The storekeepers had also procured black ballistic vests of a more lightweight and mobile design than the usual heavy tan armor vests worn by infantry, as well as matching black helmets with visors – all of this together making the five Praetorians look very much not like their peers. “They do say black goes with everything,” Raycraft joked, sliding a knife into a sheath strapped to her arm. “I think it looks good,” Darling piped up as she fussed with the settings on a grenade launcher absent-mindedly. “I think so too,” Wake-Stewart agreed, smoothing her hair as she tried on the helmet and flicked the visor down, then back up again. “Well, hopefully it does more than just look good,” Idena commented matter-of-factly as she finished reassembling the lightweight sniper rifle she had procured. “Now the real work begins.”
(just a little bit of ground work on the black ops squad I'll be writing about. Enjoy as I create yet more characters, though these are definitely more misfits than the usual band of prim and perfect Praetorian girls.)

Hi everyone. Thanks for taking the time to read and help.
I am considering refinance my car loan that I share with my GF.
We financed our car for about 26.5k in Jan 2023. Rate is 7.54% for 60 months. The monthly is roughly 533 but we have been paying 600 per month since the beginning. So we have 45 months remaining.
Our refinancing option that we think is best is with navy federal. We are thinking about getting a 36 month term for their advertised 4.54%.
Both of our credits are very good. When I login to Experian- they list my "FICO Score 8 model" at 814. So I figure the real number is around there. Similar for GF. Noting she is the one that loan will have to go through since she is the eligible one.
So assuming we get that advertised rate, or even if it is higher like at 5%, is there any reason not to do this? I am calculating the new monthly will be ~$580. I also think rates may come down more towards the end of the year which is my reason for hesitation.
Only consideration for us is that we are saving for a new home, which I am not sure if that is happening anytime soon. We are maybe at least 1 year out from even beginning to look for a home, so I feel like this is negligible.
Thanks for your time!

Disclaimer: I do not speak Korean. This is purely translated by machine with a lot of cleanup afterward. With that in mind, I am open to criticism to improve these translations. Enjoy!
Chapter 404
​
「Sigh.」
​
The night was pitch-dark.
​
Upon his return, the young man shed his equipment and collapsed in his usual spot, gasping for air. A middle-aged man approached, offering him a drink.
​
「You look exhausted. Drink this.」
​
The pair, both Hunters drafted from Shanxi Province, had forged a considerable bond.
​
Recognizing the familiar face and the can in his hand, the young man spoke hesitantly.
​
「Is this from the supplies? I've never seen this drink before.」
​
「It came as part of international aid. It's not from our country.」
​
「Um, is it non-carbonated?」
​
「If you don't like it, then never mind.」
​
Snatch!
​
Grasping the hand of the departing middle-aged man, the young man declared earnestly,
​
「Mister, did I ever tell you that my favorite thing in the world is soft drinks?」
​
「No.」
​
「Well, now you know.」
​
「Good, that's the spirit.」
​
「I'll enjoy it, then.」
​
Clink, ssshh.
​
The young man popped the can open and took a sip, his face subtly shifting. Before he could comment, the middle-aged man inquired,
​
「You're coming back from a search in Zone 3, right?」
​
「...Ugh, yes.」
​
「It must have been tough.」
​
The young man simply shrugged, his torso bare and slick with cold sweat, his cheek smeared with greenish monster blood.
​
「Monster blood, huh? Was there a fight?」
​
「No, I was just passing by a building when a fucking gargoyle corpse fell down. It must have been lying on the roof.」
​
「What a mess it must have been.」
​
「Are you kidding? The rookies in their first and second year vomited and pissed themselves the moment they got covered in blood.」
​
「And you?」
​
「Well, I am a seven-year Hunter, after all. I didn't even blink.」
​
The middle-aged man's eyes trailed down to a specific area on the young man's body. He fixed his gaze on a faintly discolored patch on the young man's navy blue pants and nodded.
​
「Ah, I see.」
​
「…It's sweat.」
​
「I didn't say anything. But when I look at you, I feel like my eyes are sweating.」
​
「…Actually, I peed a little. Can you tell?」
​
「Yes.」
​
「Shit.」
​
As the young man muttered a curse and tipped his can to drink, the middle-aged man watched in silence before suddenly asking,
​
「Did you find any survivors?」
​
「…!」
​
「It was the same for you, then.」
​
As the young man's expression suddenly hardened, the middle-aged man sighed.
​
He too had participated in a search before. It was truly a nightmarish experience.
​
Everywhere he looked, there were corpses torn to shreds by monsters, and the dreadful stench was enough to split his head.
​
Both of them would probably never forget the horrific scenes they witnessed today.
​
「…It's unimaginable. How fierce the battle must have been.」
​
「No need to imagine. Whatever you're thinking, it was worse.」
​
Under the command of Minister of National Defense Wei Feng-Hu, four thousand Hunters scoured the small town. All their search equipment consistently returned the same bleak outcome.
​
No survivors.
​
Aside from the three thousand members of the People's Liberation Army who had fled at the battle’s onset, all others were found lifeless and cold. The fate of those who fled remained uncertain.
​
「We can't even use the term 'casualty count'. 'Death count' would be more accurate…」
​
「Watch your words. We still don't have all the facts.」
​
「Uh, sorry. I misspoke.」
​
「That's enough. And…」
​
Interrupting the young man's impulsive comments, the middle-aged man clarified.
​
「The 'casualty count' is correct. There are survivors.」
​
「…Ah.」
​
A sudden recollection flashed across the young man's mind — the memory of three individuals who had endured through this horrific setting.
​
「Was it the commander of the Public Security Forces? That young guy.」
​
「Yes. A young Hunter from Korea also survived.」
​
「And ...」
​
While the two previously mentioned also demonstrated bravery, their deeds paled in comparison to the last survivor, who shone like the sun beside mere fireflies.
​
Noticing the young man's nervous swallow, the middle-aged man continued on his behalf.
​
「Yes, that person. No, that incredible hero.」
​
His tone carried a profound reverence. His unwavering respect for the much younger man stemmed from his exceptional accomplishments.
​
「Do you believe that a single Hunter can be that powerful?」
​
As a seasoned Hunter, he had a fair understanding of what an S-rank Hunter could achieve.
​
Yet, the feats accomplished by Jin Tae-Kyung seemed almost mythical, surpassing any expectations of what a Hunter — or any human — could do.
​
「A legion of monsters numbering in the tens of thousands. There were two Death Knights, and even a Death Knight Lord who is said to be as strong as, or stronger than, an S-rank Hunter.」
​
The middle-aged man's voice surged with excitement.
​
「And in comparison, how many of our Hunters were there? Merely a thousand. There were members of the People's Liberation Army, but even they...」
​
「When the front lines collapsed, nearly half ran away. The rest fought bravely but were massacred by the monsters. I've heard about it too.」
​
「How many Hunters do you think were left when Jin Tae-Kyung arrived? A thousand? No, not even half of that, I'd bet my life on it!」
​
Had he been there when Jin Tae-Kyung arrived, the shock might have been enough to cause a heart attack.
​
Even he, full of admiration, struggled to imagine Jin Tae-Kyung facing the monstrous legion alone.
​
「He led hundreds of weary and wounded Hunters and annihilated a monster legion more than ten times their number! Do you think that makes any sense?」
​
The young man, observing him, wore a skeptical expression.
​
「I don't think it's possible.」
​
「But, he did it!」
​
「Uh, sir. Sorry to throw cold water on this, but aren't these facts not fully confirmed yet?」
​
「What?」
​
「I think Jin Tae-Kyung...」
​
「It's Mr. Jin, not Jin Tae-Kyung!」
​
Taken aback by the middle-aged man's sudden outburst, the young man cleared his throat awkwardly.
​
「Ahem. So, I do acknowledge that Mr. Jin is an exceptional warrior, but don't you think there might be some exaggeration mixed in?」
​
「Exaggeration? Even after seeing the traces left on the battlefield, you say that? If not Mr. Jin, then who...」
​
「Come on, don't get so heated and try to look at it more calmly. If everything you're saying is true, then you're claiming that Mr. Jin is stronger than Fei Chen or Wu Hei-Xing.」
​
「I don't want to rank them, but based on the feats shown in this monster wave, Mr. Jin is the best. So what?」
​
「Fei Chen is a hero from Hong Kong who has achieved numerous feats during the Great Cataclysm, and Wu Hei-Xing, despite his mishaps, is considered a true genius born of China. To say that Jin Tae-Kyung surpasses these two? That crosses a line.」
​
The middle-aged man fixed the young man with a look of disappointment and disdain.
​
「You're the one crossing the line.」
​
「What?」
​
「Is that all you wanted to say? Shouting about how China is the best, claiming a great victory, and then belittling a hero who saved the people?」
​
The young man's expression contorted sharply.
​
「Since you mentioned it, the people Jin Tae-Kyung saved today amount to just two. Actually, one of them is Korean, so really just one. And that one was completely unharmed. Jin Tae-Kyung pretty much only fought to protect his own countrymen. There are rumors that he wasted a Top-grade Potion too.」
​
「I should stop talking. I have nothing good to say to you, but I at least shouldn't treat you poorly. I wonder what Mr. Jin would say if he heard this...」
​
The middle-aged man sighed deeply and stood.
​
"Well, in my opinion, he probably would've called that young man a son of a bitch."
​
「…!」
​
「…!」
​
Caught off guard by the unexpected voice, both men whirled around in surprise.
​
They were now facing someone they usually saw on TV or in the media.
​
「…Hiccup.」
​
The young man, looking up at the taller figure, started hiccupping.
​
「Ji, ji, ji, ji, Ji-jin!!」
​
The middle-aged man stuttered, as if his words were stuck.
​
Jin Tae-Kyung, observing them, cracked a congenial smile.
​
"If the young man over there wants to be a good Chinese person, he should stop hiccuping. And sir, please stop your trembling unless you plan to take down the Arch Lich with an earthquake."
​
「Hic, gulp.」
​
「I-i-is it really you?」
​
Jin Tae-Kyung nodded slightly.
​
"I was just passing by, but then I heard something quite irritating."
​
「…Th-that's…」
​
The young man, now ceasing his hiccups but trembling like a leaf, was scrutinized by Jin Tae-Kyung.
​
"How old are you?"
​
「T-twenty-nine.」
​
"You're older than me. I'll speak informally anyway."
​
「…What?」
​
"Whatever."
​
「Oh?」
​
He wouldn’t be able to retort even if Jin Tae-Kyung cursed him rather than merely using informal speech.
​
The realization that Jin Tae-Kyung, whom he had only seen from afar, had overheard every word sent a shiver down the young man's spine and caused his vision to whiten.
​
「I-I’m sorry.」
​
“There’s nothing to apologize for. That's what gossiping behind people's backs is all about. I understand.”
​
「Th-thank you.」
​
Just as Jin Tae-Kyung’s kind smile was warming his heart.
​
“There’s nothing to thank me for. Gossip is fine until you get caught; then it screws you over.”
​
「…!」
​
“There’s someone behind me right now. Can you see?”
​
The young man slowly, very cautiously, shifted his gaze.
​
Sure enough, a middle-aged man with a sinister look was emanating an intimidating presence from about ten meters away.
​
“He’s an A-rank Hunter affiliated with the Central Military Commission. He seemed quite taken with your tale and kept bowing to me. Why don’t you go and apply a medicated patch on him?”
​
「Yes, sir!」
​
The young man responded as if he were yelling and dashed off, his scream echoing as his mana-infused joints throbbed.
​
Jin Tae-Kyung, ready to depart with a light chuckle, paused.
​
“Ah, there’s one thing you’re mistaken about.”
​
「M-me?」
​
The middle-aged man, momentarily disoriented, snapped back to attention.
​
「Sorry, but what is it?」
​
“It wasn’t just me.”
​
「Really?」
​
“Everyone fought to the death. By the time I got there, it was almost all over. Please let the others know that too.”
​
「I-is that really true?」
​
“Of course. Oh, do you have a family?”
​
「Yes. Three daughters and five sons…」
​
“You’re a patriot. You could start a soccer team in a few years.”
​
Jin Tae-Kyung, contemplating, suddenly inquired.
​
“You’re not part of the combat troops, are you?”
​
「…You can tell right away.」
​
The middle-aged man lowered his head, slightly embarrassed.
​
「As you can see, I'm an E-rank Hunter, so I was excluded from combat. I will probably only be used to count casualties.」
​
"Then, may I ask you for one favor?"
​
「It would be an honor, Mr. Jin.」
​
"Please include one person in the list of the deceased. I'd like to ask you a special request since we won't be able to find the body."
​
「What is the person's name…?」
​
"Lei Fei. His name is Lei Fei."
​
That was the last thing he said.
​
The middle-aged man stood frozen, watching Jin Tae-Kyung walk away, before he finally released a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding.
​
The final look on Jin Tae-Kyung’s face seemed destined to linger in his memory for years.
​
'The intensity in his gaze...'
​
A determination to fulfill his mission.
​
The middle-aged man, having earlier voiced his respect for Jin Tae-Kyung, took a swig from the can the young man had abandoned and immediately regretted it.
​
"Ptooey!"
​
Birdian? [Note: Birdian is a beverage supplied to the Republic of Korea National Military from 2000 to 2017. The drink has a different flavor profile depending on who makes it and when, but the core of the beverage is always onion juice. You will always get a hit of onion flavor, especially when it is room temperature.]
​
It seemed like a Korean drink, but it was disgusting.
​
​
​
* * *
​
​
​
「Mr. Jin, you've arrived.」
​
Wei Feng-Hu wasn't the only one waiting.
​
Five monitors flickered to life in the conference room, each displaying an S-rank Hunter.
​
I initiated the discussion with a steady tone.
​
"Let's go end this war."
​
It was time to confront and eradicate the root of all this chaos.

Currently using my iMac as a thin client with moonlight. I got auto login, and app startup, disabled screenlocked out too.
paired an xbox controller and as long as moonlight is the active window it works fine to navi the menu.
my issue is that without any keyboard attached my iMac throws up an error screen looking for a keyboard.
can i bypass this at all?

just another layer to add to the story
Background info : He’s been a porn addict since he was a kid, the Navy made it worse, he was cheated on by an ex, he found out because she was secretive with her phone, so he went snooping when she was sleeping and found out about everything. He won’t admit that he has a porn addiction, he thinks it’s totally normal, he just denies that he watches it, even though for years he’s been caught red-handed, has made numerous porn site accounts, his favorite being reddit, and he has even reached out to his ex for nudes while we were dating, and married, He’s a compulsive, liar, and even when shown evidence he will deny it and get violent. Textbook narcissist.
so Somehow, my phone is logged into his Gmail account , I didn’t notice until one day when I was putting our girls down for bedtime two months ago, I got a notification through his email that he made a new Reddit account. I was frozen, didn’t know how to react, or feel. I was immediately heart broken again. this is his preferred way to watch porn. when I got back to our bedroom, he pretended to be asleep I went downstairs and searched the username, and it was already marked as NSFW .
I kept my mouth shut about this, in hopes that maybe for once in his life, he would come to me with the truth, and admit that he had made a mistake . I don’t know why I was hoping for this, because it’s extremely out of his character . he lies and denies forever. even with evidence. even when caught.
I will add that, even with the fact that his previous serious girlfriend had been talking to another guy and cheating on him, and the way he found out was snooping through her phone, my husband somehow think he deserves privacy on all of his devices and that it has nothing to do with cheating, in his case, But with everyone else, if you’re unwilling to share your phone , you’re definitely cheating… its so pathetic.
anyway We hadn’t had sex for a couple of weeks, so I came onto him, mostly just to see his reaction, and he denied me . So I brought up that maybe he wasn’t interested because he was using his new Reddit account… he immediately denied having it, and then added that I had no proof even if he did…?
I didn’t want to give away that I had access to his email, you know- he deserves privacy, apparently, even with his years long history of being unfaithful in every possible way,…. so I just rolled my eyes and continued living life as usual for the next couple of weeks , which consisted of him not being interested in sex, and expecting me to still be there traditional stay at home wife and mother. I played my part extremely well, not once bringing up the account, his unfaithfulness, or the fact that we hadn’t had sex in so long, but he doesn’t seem sexually frustrated at all..
Instead. I came onto him again, a few days later,, and this time he said he knows it’s been a while since we had sex, but his dick is sore so he would be willing to just get me off …?.? he admitted that his dick only gets sore if he’s jerked off multiple times in one day, so yeah… I was just like no thank you, ew, goodnight.
A few days after that , I decided enough was enough and why tried to login into his Reddit account using some passwords that I know, No luck.
I got a little toxic 😅 and while he was sleeping. I snooped through his phone, surprised that he hadn’t changed the password, but then I realized it was because he went and deleted every email and text message from his entire phone. So he knew that even if I did snoop, I wouldn’t find anything, because he deleted everything. he even deleted the Reddit app … Which makes sense with his comment that I had no evidence. But thankfully, for my own sanity, I screen shotted the emails that came through when he first made the account. so I know I’m not crazy, and his gaslighting won’t work on me this time.
I decided to pull a ballsy move and the next day while he was at work I hit the forgot password button on his Reddit login, I also had his email account open on my phone so I could immediately delete the email to change his password. it worked, it’s most definitely his account, and I changed that motherfucker’s password. well, it was completely empty, he had deleted all of the history all of the searches he’s following no one, and is not active in any communities, but he has the NSFW warning on his profile.. so if he trickle truths, says yes, he has a Reddit account but he only uses it for normal things, and he deleted the emails just so I wouldn’t see you because he didn’t want it to trigger me, I’ll be able to say that if he were being honest, why is there no searches, or history, and why is he not following or involved in any communities? how did the NSFW warning get on his account if he hasn’t looked at porn? if it’s an account just for his hobbies and interest, why didn’t he change the profile name and put up a picture of himself like he did for his last account? Seems like this is just a secret hidden account , only made for porn use.
anyway
he hasn’t said anything, and he has not changed the password back, which means he has not even tried to login to Reddit recently, which is very surprising. OR maybe he did and saw that his password was incorrect, so he knows that I changed the password and I know all about the account, so he probably already made a new one and deleted the those emails already too
Who knows. But I’m sick of asking for honesty, and the best he can do is delete everything that he doesn’t want me to see and then pretend like he’s being open and truthful… saying ‘I have nothing to hide’ to me… well yeah cause you just deleted everything that you’ve spent our entire relationship hiding…
I hate that the Internet, browsers and apps cater to men like this, incognito browsing, VPN, Snapchat, vanish mode on Instagram and Facebook messenger, it’s like society wants men to feel safe cheating on their spouses, they want men to be addicted to porn, they make it so damn easy.
Sometimes I wish the Internet never existed, and he could just either be faithful, wishful thinking, or cheat on me the old-fashioned way, by taking the walk of shame to the nearest brothel. porn makes it so easy for men to cheat without the shame of anyone finding out for the most part, no risk of STDs, and there’s always a female ready and waiting.. disgusting.
Seriously though what kind of man behaves this way? I feel so pathetic that I ended up marrying someone like this. there were so many red flags, and I chose to ignore all of them, was I that desperate? ew. I hate myself. and I hate him just as much.

So I'm a big fan of Kottke.org and I'm trying to build a basic blog design on Webflow that uses some of the elements of that site. I am, sadly, very inexperienced at web design -- but making ok progress so far. What I haven't figured out, though, is how to do one of the link posts shown in the below screenshot, i.e. provide a URL and have the post pull the header image, headline, description from the page and put it in a neat box as though I was posting on social media.
Any advice appreciated. I'm not even sure what this is called. A link card, or something?
