    The Justice Of Usa – Part 3

    For a while, Usa stumbled around the outskirts of town, trying to stay alive in the wilderness. When her days were not spent hunting (using what little she knew), they were spent at the bank of a small stream. There, Usa would stare into her reflection and cringe at what stared back at her. Parts ...

    The Justice Of Usa – Part 2

    Usa stormed out of her house, fury in her veins. It wasn’t until the mage had grabbed her arm, burrowing his thick fingers into her dark skin, that she realized he followed her. Foot traffic in the street stopped as his voice shouted above the noise. “You do not understand, Usa. The king wants you ...

    Halloween Comfort

    I was never allowed to trick or treat as a kid. However, Halloween has always been a special time of year for me. 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 ...

    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 ...

    The Demon Who Wanders The Dreamscape

    This story exists as a companion to a previous post. You can find that post here. *** There’s a word you humans use for when something excites you. It’s used to say that something is giving you freedom. Freedom that comes after being chained down. And that freedom is addicting. You never want to let ...

    The Lost One – Part Two

    Kelgen sat with his legs crossed on the edge of the dead forest where he found Jethus. Branches like twisted arms wrestled in a constant breeze sweeping from the east. Under his breath, he recited a prayer to the Four Gods, the words tapping into a language that could only be understood when embracing magic. ...

    The Lost One – Part One

    Kelgen stood amidst a dying forest, barren in the coming autumn, and looked up. Jethus hung by his neck from the branch of a large oak. The rope that strangled his throat had been pinned down by a stake at one end then tossed over the branch, where he was then forced from this life ...
