Fiction Contest Time: My Adventure Hello heroes, time to tell me a story. A lot of events have happened recently in the games story.

Heroes Rising Fiction: The Jinn Chapter 9

Chapter 9: The Obsidian Bottle A blazing bird landed in the center of Istanbul, flames spilled out across the streets. At this late hour there were few people around, so none were burned. The flames evaporated as the bird transformed into a beautiful woman in a bright red kimono. Her delicate face held a gentle smile as she walked toward the palace. Two guards met her with weapons drawn. “Announce yourself!” One demanded. “I am the Lady Phoenix and I mean to enter this palace.”...

Chapter 7: Turning Point 1718 CE Three hundred years passed as the Ottoman Empire grew. Sultans came and went, political rivals fought over the throne at times, and a few usurped their fathers.

Soon, their eyes were on Europe and they began to fight the kingdoms that dominated the Eastern European front. Through all this, Jinn remained. Each new Sultan was introduced to the magical advisor...

Heroes Rising Fiction: The Jinn Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Jadid A man in dark robes rode the back of a stallion into the city of Istanbul. He was not Arabian, his complexion was lighter and his long hair gray. Over one eye was a patch. The people stared at him as he passed. Guards were alert to his presence, but none stopped him. Workings diligently rebuilt the city all around him as rubble was carted away. After a long ride he came to the gates of the palace and dismounted his steed. A guard approached him, weapon ready. “Who approaches...

Chapter 5: Growing Ambition The years passed as the armies of the Ottoman Empire captured more lands and further diminished the power and size of the Byzantine Empire. Bey Orhan Bin Osman led this expansion with great skill and surprising success. No one in Bursa, outside of a single city guard, had any idea who or what Jinn was.

Chapter 4: A Taste of Victory  The Bey Orhan sat on a rug in the general’s tent near Nicomedia. Two of his generals sat with him while Jinn stood nearby, watching out of the tent flap. “Bey, our scouts have spotted the enemy approaching from the Sea of Marmara.” One general stated. The other, who was not present at the palace, said, “My men remain stationed near Nicomedia. It remains a Byzantine stronghold, but we will not allow them access to the rest of their empire.” The Bey...

Chapter 3: Bey Orhan Bin Osman The palace rang with the stern voices of generals. Old men with long beards and turbans stood around a table. The table held a map of the world around this nation. One man angrily gestured toward the map, “It is not possible!” “The rest of Anatolia will fall to us, this I know.” Another man argued. The first huffed and answered, “By what providence do you know this? They are strong and well-armed, we have failed again and again. To keep up this campaign...

Heroes Rising Fiction: The Jinn Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Transformation Ottoman Emirate: Near Bursa: A young man hollered and swatted a sheep with the end of a staff. It bawled at him and then dashed to join the others on the hillside. The boy, satisfied with his effort to contain his flock, joined them at the top of the hill so he could keep watch. Contented with the grazing going smoothly, he pulled out a scroll and unrolled it. “Greetings.” A voice startled the boy. In a swift motion, the boy stood up and swung his staff at...
