Week - 625 There's No Place Like Qasala for the Holidays by cosmicfire918

Description: Jazan massaged his forehead, leaning over the card-strewn table in exasperation as Nabile erupted into a fit of laughter beside him. "Why do I always lose at this game?" he groaned, adding the pile to his hand of twenty cards.

Description: "Oh, this will be the greatest Grundo Independence Day Hyren's ever known!"

Week - 628 Worth Fighting For: Part Two by cosmicfire918

Description: He'd been in wilderness survival situations before, on other worlds. The only thing different about this was that it was only him this time, no troops to command...

Week - 629 Worth Fighting For: Part Three by cosmicfire918

Description: "We don't do this for the money," Terra replied, a little shortly. "We're explorers. We find things just to find them."

Week - 630 Worth Fighting For: Part Four by cosmicfire918

Description: "So that's when the Space Fungus started swarming our ship!" They had to have been walking for at least an hour, now, but Hyren was nowhere near running out of stories.

Week - 631 Worth Fighting For: Part Five by cosmicfire918

Week - 632 Worth Fighting For: Part Six by cosmicfire918

Description: "That's the biggest Lyins I've ever seen!" Blynn exclaimed, nocking a piece of ammo in her slingshot and taking aim...

Week - 633 Worth Fighting For: Part Seven by cosmicfire918

Description: "Why did you leave her by herself?!" Hyren demanded to know. "Me?! You're one to talk!" Blynn spat in retort...

Week - 634 Worth Fighting For: Part Eight by cosmicfire918

Description: Hyren exhaled, placing a hand on his chest. "That way," he urged Blynn, prompting her to sidle off of the crates in the direction of the cliff edge, which was hidden by a labyrinth of terraces and roofs.

Description: "What's a starship doing in the Haunted Woods?"

Week - 636 Worth Fighting For: Part Ten by cosmicfire918

Week - 637 Worth Fighting For: Part Eleven by cosmicfire918

Description: He was in a very small room—no, a cell, he surmised. The walls were dark and bare, the sound of distant mechanical humming coming from somewhere below him.

Week - 638 Worth Fighting For: Part Twelve by cosmicfire918

Week - 659 Twenty-Four Hours by cosmicfire918

Description: "What the..." The Grundo sat up to see who had sawed off half of his bed while he was asleep—and it promptly collapsed underneath him.

Week - 663 Worth Searching For: Part One by cosmicfire918

Week - 666 Worth Searching For: Part Four by cosmicfire918

Week - 667 Worth Searching For: Part Five by cosmicfire918

Description: "Wake up," Isengrim said, gently shaking her shoulder. "It is time for the feast in your honour."

Week - 670 Worth Searching For: Part Eight by cosmicfire918

Description: "Skoll, where are we going?" Pharazon trudged down the steep-sided forest path after his Werelupe mentor...

Week - 671 Worth Searching For: Part Nine by cosmicfire918

Description: Roberta's directions proved to be far more helpful than she'd predicted. Hyren, Blynn, Celice, and Gwyneth found the turnoff easily, and by nightfall they'd begun to make their way up into the wooded mountains.

Week - 672 Worth Searching For: Part Ten by cosmicfire918

Week - 674 Worth Searching For: Part Twelve by cosmicfire918

Week - 678 Roll for Initiative by cosmicfire918

Description: It was a crisp Storing evening in Altador, and it was raining, and Dark_breed_Hyren was doing his best not to catch a cold.

Week - 682 The Gourmand's Guide to Neopian Dining: Meridell by cosmicfire918

Description: While bearing a cursory resemblance to the baseline cuisine of Neopia Central, due to historical ties between the two regions, Meridell's cultural differences have lent a distinct flavour to its traditional foodstuffs.

Week - 686 A Real Class Act by cosmicfire918

Description: It was one of those beautiful spring days where nothing is supposed to go wrong.

Week - 688 The Nature of the Beast by cosmicfire918

Description: The Werelupe King and his owner were watching the sunset. This was not an unusual occurrence—Isengrim spent many an evening like this during his visits to Terra’s Altadorian villa. It had become their tradition, and Isengrim found comfort in traditions, especially in a world that didn’t bother to offer him much more.

Week - 698 Dances With Werelupes: Part One by cosmicfire918

Description: “This is an outrage!” Blynn679 backhanded the front page of the Neopian Times. The Disco Zafara’s magenta tail lashed behind her in frustration as she paced around the library of her family’s Altador villa. Her Faerie Draik brother edged over her shoulder to look at the headlines. “What’s an outrage?” ArPharazonTheGolden asked. “This!” Blynn pointed to the largest text on the page: PREPARATIONS FOR ANNUAL CHOCOLATE BALL UNDERWAY.

Week - 699 Dances With Werelupes: Part Two by cosmicfire918

Description: The Werelupe King peeked his snout over Terra’s shoulder. “Lady Illusen…” he grumbled. “I was not expecting to see you here.” “The sentiment is mutual,” the Faerie said, folding her arms and tilting her head, looking down at him like a disapproving parent.

Week - 706 Squid Slippers: Foster Frustrations by cosmicfire918

Description: That's better.

Week - 715 Shopkeepers: The Truth Behind the Counter by cosmicfire918

Description: And then I did a double-take. Because the shopkeeper was none other than Fyora herself. Her Royal Faerie Highness was standing there behind the counter, waving as I left the store dumbstruck. What was the Faerie Queen doing tending a small shop in Altador, waiting for passers-by to peruse her employer’s selection of partially-eaten omelettes?

Week - 717 Never Again, Spiced Apple Pie: Part One by cosmicfire918

Description: Grundo’s Café was as busy as ever. The canteen on the recreation deck of the Virtupets Space Station held a myriad of Neopets unwrapping their rehydrated Chicken Dumplings and carefully nibbling their Electric Nachos. Wall-mounted screens showed the latest in news and entertainment from around the galaxy, including an interview with some Alien Aisha musicians and the latest strike on Sloth’s forces on some far-flung world.

Week - 718 Never Again, Spiced Apple Pie: Part Two by cosmicfire918

Description: Commander Hyren knew he at least couldn’t secure the base from here. Suppressing a moan, he moved for the door and it slid open to reveal a darkened, deserted hallway. If engineering wasn’t going to answer, he’d just have to go to them himself.

Week - 719 Never Again, Spiced Apple Pie: Part Three by cosmicfire918

Description: A wriggling pink mass of Space Fungus splayed its tentacles into the control room, bowling over Hyren. He almost got sick right there, but he forced himself to keep his composure and complete the roll, springing back up to punch away a tentacle and wrestle several more.

Week - 722 The Scrivener's Survey by cosmicfire918

Description: This Scrivener has come out of anonymity to share with all of Neopia, via the Times, the inside scoop on books I’ve read! For truth! For justice! For informed book buying! (And also because the Defenders of Neopia, in no uncertain terms, told me to switch to a more “conventional” method of spreading literary information. When Judge Hog speaks, you listen.)

Week - 727 Wildsong by cosmicfire918

Description: Night in the Haunted Woods falls with swiftness upon its victims. It is not as many stories say—the forest is not rife with yowling spooks and ghoulish spectres at every turn. It is not a scaled-up version of a Neopia Central Neohome’s Halloween decorations, which brashly proclaim frightfulness in the most colourful of fashions.

Week - 728 Squid Slippers: Meteor Mysteries by cosmicfire918

Description: Wheeeeee!

Week - 729 Squid Slippers: HP Hassles by cosmicfire918

Description: Talk about playing favourites...

Week - 731 Squid Slippers: Pick Your Own Pitfalls by cosmicfire918

Week - 732 Sloth's Daily Dare by cosmicfire918

Description: He never realized games were so fun! Also by ruben160

Week - 736 Afternoons at Exquisite Ambrosia by cosmicfire918

Description: A few weeks before the Altador Cup, before the mass migration of spectators, the teams themselves quietly slip into the city to gear up for the tournament. They train in the stadium and discuss logistics and regulations with the Altador Cup Committee—and when they need some downtime, they head to Exquisite Ambrosia.

Week - 739 Create Your Own Adventure by cosmicfire918

Description: I always suspected that my Grundo had a sadistic streak. Years of serving as a commander in Dr. Sloth’s galactic marine corps will probably do that to you. But my hunch was confirmed the day Dark_breed_Hyren brought home an Adventure Generator.

Week - 741 Farewell to Lynwood by cosmicfire918

Description: From the moment Suhel Caradoc laid eyes on the Lynwood School for Girls, she knew she did not belong there. he little Christmas-coloured Lupe poked out her snout from the window of her carriage, eyeing the grounds with distaste.

Week - 743 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part One by cosmicfire918

Description: The reason he’d gotten himself into this, ArPharazonTheGolden decided, was because he could never say “no” to anything. The Faerie Draik perched on the edge of the bed in his cabin in a Shenkuuvian sky-ship, staring at the letter in his claws, not really seeing the words so much as coming to the realisation that he was hopelessly wishy-washy.

Week - 744 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Two by cosmicfire918

Description: Five days later, on a grey drizzly afternoon, Pharazon stepped off the gangplank of the sky-ship liner and into Brightvale’s bustling skyport. He pulled the hood of his travelling cloak closer around his face to protect himself from the chill air, watching his breath pool in front of his snout every time he exhaled.

Week - 745 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Three by cosmicfire918

Description: The augurs were right—the next day was still overcast and cold, but the clouds looked much less likely to rain as Celice rented a carriage to take them to Market Town.

Week - 746 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Four by cosmicfire918

Description: It really was like stepping into another world. The thick wall behind them muffled the sounds of the city, leaving the ruins eerily silent. Overgrown thickets of brush carpeted the ground, and gnarled old trees, their bare branches devoid of the slightest hint of spring, pushed their roots against cracked stone like they were attempting to escape from their wretched prison.

Week - 747 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Five by cosmicfire918

Description: Pharazon opened his eyes to cold daylight. Above him stretched tangled, budding tree branches, and past them a cloudy sky. He had no idea what he was doing lying on a muddy forest floor. Where was he?

Week - 748 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Six by cosmicfire918

Description: Pharazon didn’t know how long he had slept, but it was still night when he found himself suddenly awake. The fire was still going and he was warm enough—what had roused him was a deep and incoherent mumbling.

Week - 749 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Seven by cosmicfire918

Description: Kass merely stood by, looking utterly confused, while Celice’s jaw was slack with astonishment. “Pharazon—“ she sputtered. “Are you quite sure you know what you’re doing?” He grinned in embarrassment. “I told you already, I’m not quite sure of anything. I’m just doing what feels right instead of waiting around for fear to drive my actions.”

Week - 750 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Eight by cosmicfire918

Description: This was the longest Pharazon could ever recall walking. His feet hurt. He’d tried flying until his wings hurt, but his feet hadn’t stopped hurting by then, and walking took less energy anyway. The hunger didn’t help. Their breakfast that morning, while kind of Kass to retrieve for them, had not been satiating, and Pharazon’s stomach began to complain loudly, as did Celice’s.

Week - 751 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Nine by cosmicfire918

Description: Pharazon had no idea what to say. This was the moment he and Celice had been dreading, and although Pharazon had put on a brave front earlier, now that it was actually happening, the only thing he could think of to do was, perhaps, hide under the bed. But fear kept him rooted to the spot.

Week - 752 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Ten by cosmicfire918

Description: As the carriage passed over the bridge and through the city gates, Pharazon shuddered. The dark energy here was so thick that it seemed to dim the very sunlight. Even Neopets on the streets seemed to at least notice something wasn’t right, as they went about their day looking anxious and harried

Week - 753 The Spirit of Black Keep: Part Eleven by cosmicfire918

Description: Pharazon’s breath caught in his throat and he felt a pang of emotion run through him. This felt overwhelmingly right. Quietly, he crept across the rug toward the figure.

Week - 759 Family Matters by cosmicfire918

Description: “The theme of this year’s Games Master Challenge,” he read, “is ‘Heroes versus Villains’. The captain of Team Heroes is King Jazan the Fourth, Ruler of Qasala, Emperor of the Shadowed Sands, Master Sorcerer and Maven of Curses. The captain of Team Villains is… to be determined?!”

Week - 761 The Holly and the Ivy: Part One by cosmicfire918

Description: "If you get too cold you’ll fall into torpor, and you won’t wake up ‘til Running.” “Running?! But I’ll sleep right through Giving Day!” That was all the incentive Nan needed to stay in their little cottage until the snows stopped. And that was how winter went in the little hamlet of Caxton Bank, nestled in the foothills of the Werelupe Woods. Most years, anyway.

Week - 762 The Holly and the Ivy by cosmicfire918

Description: A powerful smell, acrid and rich, filled Nan’s sinuses. She sneezed—and her eyes flew open. The world around her was bright and unfocused, but pungent aromas filled the air and something crackled and popped nearby. And she was warm, positively hot, wrapped in an enormous fur blanket. The blanket removed a pawful of leaves from under Nan’s nose. “Ah, there you are,” it said in a deep, husky voice.

Week - 769 Return to Lynwood: Part One by cosmicfire918

Description: Of course Terra was a grown owner, but Isengrim could not help but dote on her. She had saved him from himself, showed him the utmost kindness and patience when he was at his worst, and inspired him to have the strength to change, and for that he owed her the world. But he had yet to figure out a way to obtain the world for her, so for now he would make do with being the best Neopet he could be for her.

Week - 770 Return to Lynwood: Part Two by cosmicfire918

Description: “It was once a town quite a bit smaller than Barrowmere or Neovia, but holding its own nonetheless. Then… well, I am not quite sure what happened to it. None of us had travelled this way for quite a while, but one spring I ventured back here and… everyone was gone. Even their smell was gone.”

Week - 771 Return to Lynwood: Part Three by cosmicfire918

Description: But this illness felt different. She had never coughed so violently before—it shook her whole body and made her ribs hurt, and there were times when it felt like she couldn’t breathe. And she felt so lethargic, like someone had put a heavy weight on her, making everything except sleep more difficult.

Week - 773 Return to Lynwood: Part Four by cosmicfire918

Description: A few of Isengrim’s thanes let out low growls at the Kougra, which Suhel cut short with a motion of her paw. Pharazon stared hard at the woman, his blue eyes narrowing. Although Lexora looked like she wanted to pass out, she finally said, “C-Caradoc?! I thought I’d never see you again! When you left for the Woods and never came back—we all assumed the worst!”

Week - 774 Return to Lynwood by cosmicfire918

Description: “You can see curses?” Suhel asked Pharazon. To her Werelupe vision, nothing looked wrong with Lexora at all. “Well, they are a type of magic,” the faerie Draik said. “Magic to me is what smell is to you. I could see Connor’s curse on him, plain as day.”

Week - 775 Return to Lynwood: Part Six by cosmicfire918

Description: “Children, come here a moment.” The two boys wasted no time in complying. They seemed to perpetually be in a race with each other, while their older sister took her time descending the stairs. “Millie, darling, it’s all right,” Lexora said. “They won’t hurt us. They’re—our friends.” She shot a smile at Suhel, who returned it.

Week - 776 Return to Lynwood: Part Seven by cosmicfire918

Description: Isengrim awoke to a twinge in his leg and the smell of breakfast. No—to call it just a “smell” would not do it justice.

Week - 777 Return to Lynwood: Part Eight by cosmicfire918

Description: Isengrim and his pack used to be largely nocturnal, but over the past few years had eased into being more active during the day, to better facilitate relations between them and their non-Werelupe allies.

Week - 778 Return to Lynwood: Part Nine by cosmicfire918

Description: Isengrim was not sure if the pup had taken to heart his companions’ promise to protect him, but it looked as though Connor at least found them better company than Vakhtang. Although the dark-furred Werelupe could hardly consider that a compliment. He was fairly certain a mutant Kiko with the Sneezles would be better company than Vakhtang.

Week - 779 Return to Lynwood: Part Ten by cosmicfire918

Description: Suhel hated getting sick. But this was a sickness like nothing she had ever before experienced.

Week - 780 Return to Lynwood: Part Eleven by cosmicfire918

Description: “Last I checked,” he said, “Vakhtang did not own this place, and he’s got no control over you, either. Why don’t we put an end to his silly charade?”

Week - 781 Return to Lynwood: Part Twelve by cosmicfire918

Description: "Search every corner of these quarters!” Isengrim barked as two of his packmates hacked down the door. “I want Vakhtang found!”

Week - 772 We Are Made of Choices by cosmicfire918

Description: Perhaps not so much reading, as reminiscing. His paw pads traced the titles on the spines of the history books, reminding him that he actually remembered so much of what they called “history” these days. In Neopia, he thought, heroes never died—they just went away for a while.

Week - 782 The Curious Case of the Airborne Flatbread by cosmicfire918

Description: “Your pizza has arrived, sire.”

Week - 783 You've Mastered the Basics--Now What? Part 1 by cosmicfire918

Week - 803 Ylana Skyfire Saves Halloween by cosmicfire918

Week - 805 The League of Adventurers by cosmicfire918

Description: But ancient Neopia is something else entirely. At any rate, it’s nice to just pretend to adventure sometimes.
