The Wistful LetterThe sky tore open. You stand on the precipice. The wind is a physical weight. It presses against your chest. It pushes the coat you wear. The wool is thick. It is gray. It is damp. You do not know where you are. The air tastes of iron. It tastes of ozone. It tastes of old blood. Below you, the world is wrong. It is a landscape of glass and rust. Spires twist into the dark clouds. They do not...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Faded PortraitThe rain did not fall so much as it hung, a grey curtain woven from the breath of the dying city, shrouding the cobblestones of Oakhaven in a perpetual, suffocating damp. Sir Thomas Bradshaw stood at the threshold of the Watchtower, his hand resting on the hilt of a sword that had not tasted blood in twenty years, yet felt heavier than it had in his youth. He was not a man of grand gestures,...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Golden MythThe oak tree stands in the center of the yard, its roots gnarled and deep like the veins of a man who has forgotten how to sleep, and you stand beneath it with your hands still shaking, the metal taste of blood on your tongue thick and undeniable, while the fog rolls in from the river, a cold, gray shroud that erases the lines of the fence and the world beyond, making everything feel suspended...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Pale ProtocolThe train did not arrive on time. It never did, in the grey, soot-choked sprawl of Ashworth, a city that had swallowed its own skyline in a fit of industrial ambition. Elias Thorne stood on the platform, his coat buttoned to the throat, watching the steam hiss against the iron lattice of the roof. He was not waiting for a person. He was waiting for the silence that followed the departure of the...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Wistful VoyageThe fog was thick. It tasted of iron and wet wool. I stood in the hallway. My hands were still. They were always still. My mother’s hands were not. They moved. They wove. They knitted the air into something solid. I held the shawl. It was blue. Deep blue. The color of a bruise. The color of the sky before the storm broke. It was heavy. It smelled of lavender and decay. It was my mother’s last...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Pale EchoThe hand was wrong. Not the size. Not the color. The way it hung. Loose. Too loose. Like a rag doll left in the rain. I knew that hand. I knew the knuckles. The scar on the thumb. My father’s thumb. He was dead. We had buried him three days ago. I had held the shovel. I had felt the wet clay bite into the leather of my boots. I had watched the dirt pile up, layer by layer, until the pine box...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Faded QuadrantThe ink was still wet. It bled into the grain of the oak table, dark and iridescent, like a bruise forming under the skin. I watched it spread. The letters dissolved. My name was gone. The date was gone. Only the smudge remained, a black void where identity used to be. I am Elias Thorne. Or I was. The air in the archive smelled of dust and rot. It was a dry, ancient rot, the kind that eats...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Golden ScarThe rain fell in a heavy, rhythmic curtain over the jagged cliffs of the Ashmoor Coast, a relentless gray water that blurred the line between the churning sea below and the storm-battered sky above. Thomas Whitmore stood at the edge of the precipice, his boots sinking slightly into the slick mud, his hand resting on the hilt of a sword that had seen more battles than he could count. He was not...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews

The Pale TowerThe iron gate of the Blackwood Asylum for the Nervously Afflicted did not creak; it groaned, a low, tectonic complaint that vibrated through the soles of Thomas Bradshaw’s boots. He stood before it, the fog of the Northumberland moor pressing against his chest like a wet wool blanket, thick with the smell of wet stone and decaying peat. Inside, the asylum was a monolith of grey slate, a closed...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 Reviews
