Royal & Justice
They stand on the edge, breathing in the ocean’s smell beneath them, their arms spread out. They take a deep breath, close their eyes; when they open their eyes, the wind captures their blonde hair, and it blows out behind them. On the palm of their hand, which they face upward, orbs of blue magic ...The Justice Of Usa – Part 5
The library of Tamdenworth is a two-story brick house of knowledge, noisy floorboards, and the musty smell of books. It is one of the newer buildings in Tamdenworth, and it stands tall as if daring the occupants of the town to enter. Usa takes that dare, holding her lantern high; the steps up to the ...The Justice Of Usa – Part 4
She stands now, on that cliff, her back to the cave. While surviving on the outskirts of town, she heard murmurs of the king’s order; she heard of the punishment for denying it. Usa wonders about the king, about the state of her town, her country, but what can she do? There’s a million questions ...The Justice Of Usa – Part 3
For a while, Usa stumbled around the outskirts of town, trying to stay alive in the wilderness.

My parents didn’t like me watching things with magic involved so Halloween was like forbidden fruit. This being said, It became my favorite holiday as a kid. I loved researching how Halloween was ...Shadowfield Chronicles Part 6: Preparations
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Lux, unlike Shadowfield, is an innovator in technology and magic. Wagons drive on wheels that do not require a horse. Residents carry around small, round mirrors to communicate with each other from far away. A social network exists within ...Set My Soul Afire
“Do more of what lights your soul on fire.” That is the intriguing quote on the cover of my new journal. It is the reason I was drawn to it. The verb do suggests action, enthusiasm, movement. This is not talking about binge-watching your favorite show or YouTubers, or spending hours on social media debating ...My Fairytale Dream (A Poem)
I closed my eyes And dream Of a time of Lords and Ladies Knights that fraught for honor In my dream I see A castle upon the hill Surrounded by peril Fire-breathing dragon Within is a Princess Beautiful of fire, lock, and emerald orb …Trapped… Until one day, on the back Of a great white ...
