Fallen Princess, Risen Queen
The princess knew something bad had happened, and that being called to court was going to change things for her — but she had no idea that it would lead to her entire reality being rewritten. Princess Antariel, daughter of Queen Anadariel and King Tiertalan, had been raised in a life of comfort, without want. She often dressed in the […]
The Transfigured
Even as he ran his errand, he was struck by the sight of people milling around him, intent on taking care of their own tasks. All he and any of them had to do was look up and over toward the west, and they would see the spacecraft hovering motionless above the mountains.
Floor 2: Clovehill Mortuary
A digital message flashes above the elevator door. 2ND FLOOR. CLOVEHILL VALLEY. ESCORT THE SCIENTIST TO SAFETY. Nice, an escort mission. The elevator doors part, revealing a gloomy cemetery with sickly white trees and gravestones overgrown with vines.
Entombed Remnant
Finally his time had arrived. Long he had waited for his new journey, destined to arrive at what he hoped to be the unknown. Amateur archaeologist Axel Rex had always dreamt deep and hard of making incredible discoveries of his own, far beyond digging up uninteresting trinkets with other researchers in local fields. Throughout his twenty six years, starting as […]
A Wicked Witch
Just so we start this story off straight, I am a witch, better known as Wiccan. I never use my abilities to harm others, but to benefit them. Some believed in my power and sought advice again and again. Others laughed and mocked me, even bullied me. I never did anything to deserve that treatment. People who wanted my help […]

Beware, Beware, the Enchanted Pond
Janai brandished her scissors with a steady hand, their silver blades gleaming in the noontime sun. Holding the hollythorn blossom steady, she clipped it midway down its fleshy stem and let it fall into her palm. Hooking her scissors onto her belt, she pulled a small, lidded phial free and unscrewed its cap, dropping the delicate blossom into it before […]
Abandoned Prison
The sound of the drips of water falling from the ceiling echoed through the dark empty cells. Forgotten for years and buried underground. They at least used to be empty for many years but now a new prisoner found himself locked in one of them. Kass was waking up. He didn’t know where he was but the air was cool […]
Passion for the Rebuilt
Tienna sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the scars that adorned her body as the t.v. played in front of her. The dancing lights from the screen shining on her exposed skin and man made appendages. Her left leg and arm had been violently taken from her, the skin colored polymer reminding her of where they once […]
Invisible – The Ring
The last few weeks of my first year at University looked like they were going to be spent the same as every other week had been since I got there – alone, in my room, either watching some stupid Netflix show, cooking bad dinners for myself, or, and I wasn’t too proud of this, masturbating furiously to the images of […]
