The Mine Lord Returns!
Part II: Icevein
After months of labor, I’m happy to announce that The Mine Lord Part II:Icevein will begin its release this Wednesday, May 13th, 2026.
Since the completion of The Mine Lord’s release on , its readership has continued to grow, and I’m truly excited to share the next chapters of this tale with you all.
Blurb:
Peridot and Rightauger, the oldest children of Onyx and Chargrim, are far from alike, but both may serve a purpose for Glint. With the ürsi dispersed, Chargrim must turn his attention westward to the pressures of the human kingdoms. Dissent grows in Glint from those who wish to open trade with the humans against Chargrim’s wishes, and Peridot finds herself at the center of the dispute. Lives and loyalties hang in the balance, and the Jewel of Glint must find arbitration. anwhile, Rightauger puts Hobblefoot’s new invention to the test, but the brutal outlaw Icevein dogs his trail. Between vendetta, ürsi, and the many dangers of the wilds, survival is far from certain.

When does Icevein take place?
Icevein begins two years PRIOR to the end of The Mine Lord and proceeds to events after the Battle of Tonkil’s Rock. Expect to see familiar characters but from new points of view.
Completion Status:
Icevein is already drafted and complete. I am revising now, and many chapters are already available on my Patreon. If you want advance chapters, I intend to keep Patreon about 10 chapters ahead of the release. Your support is greatly appreciated: /traemc

I am also working on another series at the mont and splitting my writing ti (expect an announcent about the other series soti this sumr). I anticipate releasing two chapters of Icevein per week on a Monday/Thursday schedule, but this could vary or change.
