The Battle of Bellator

Evelyn Daisy

3 min read

The fight raged on around me as my heart stopped dead. I had spotted her. Elise, the love of my life, the only thing I had left to live for. I looked into her eyes, wishing I could see a glimpse of the woman that I loved, but I knew what would greet me. Her beautiful green eyes, glassed over. This wasn’t her. This wasn’t my Elise. When they had taken her away from me I knew what they would turn he...

Throwing one leg over, Sir Cedric Gain descended from his horse with practiced ease. In the sun’s early morning rays, he cut an impressive figure. His armor was a masterpiece of craftsmanship, intricately engraved with patterns of vines and heraldic symbols. In one of his gauntleted hands he held a great helm. Scabbarded at his side was a longsword, ready to be drawn at a moment’s noti...

I blink wildly as the dark textured fabric pins my lashes to my face, and behind my back my knuckles whiten in protest. I tug at my arms but the fabric will not slack against the bones of my wrists. The air around me is damp as I breath it in, coating the back of my throat in a harsh wet kiss --sour and salty, the rot and decay pour into me like ocean water dripping down my throat and no mater how...

Fate Calls

Crown Of Seventy Thorns

1 min read

I am Death,

I am feared

By all that know of me,

But by what I can see,

Life,

To put it simply,

Is fleeting.

My job is to

End lives

When fate calls

And says

They are supposed to

End,

But it has come to my

Attention,

Lives seem to be

Nearing their ends

Far earlier than

Usual.

Life was never

Something I understood,

I mean,

I was Death!

Yet something still

Felt off…

Lives were ending

Way too fa...

Mother’s Tune

Deanna Sage

1 min read

If only the tunes of old could bring back with them the souls that were once reciting the notes. If only the memories could be held, gripped as tight as my mother’s arms used to hold me as her lips painted each melody through the icy night air. Bring forth that nostalgic backing track of crackling firewood that fit so well beneath her vocals, and the soothing sedate pluck of the lute, guiding my c...

The birds circled overhead as Emil sat on the floor the grass still somewhat wet beneath him from the cold nights before it was still cold of course but it was brighter, and louder, it feels more alive but chances are none of that really needs to be said. He leans against the tree stood behind him, It’s not _that_ bad really, or better put _it could probably be worse. _

But it isn’t, it is what...

Weeping Sol

The Widow 🦇

How we wound the Sol

With teeth, blades, and tongues of gold

It weeps sultry fire as it crawls,

To a tranquil realm God crafted olde

I beseech the Sol to stay

But it’s wails crescendo to a shrill,

Enow! It bellows, fire cascading upon the vale

Forsooth, humanity are unworthy with poor will

Nay! I cry,

We are flawed, true! We love you!

The Sol disregards me and descends without comply

I choke ...
