In a time long forgotten, when the heavens were still close to the earth and gods walked among mortals, a once-peaceful kingdom known as Eldoria thrived. Its people lived in harmony, protected by the favor of benevolent gods who watched over them from the celestial realm. But that harmony was shattered one fateful day.
The heavens grew dark as the old gods descended from their celestial thrones. ...
One hundred mortal years ago, the nine realms lived in peace. One hundred mortal years ago was the coming of Ragnarök.
————
The war lasted years. The sky turned red with blood and the realms blurred together. Creatures of all realms faught in a chaos. Each realm was destroyed, one by one, most of their populations along with it. Until Midgard was all that was left. The survivors of each realm, o...
The government, both Human and Fae, reached an accord. In exchange for knowledge and turning the tide on climate change, the Fae would be granted inclusion into our world. Peace seemed to fall over the lands, the broken world finally breathing a sigh of relief as the tension between our races dissipated on the winds.

“The beings, now known as the Fae, came through the rift only a month ago. Since then, we have learned that the rift was caused by pollution that had spread between our worlds, causing the aether, a veil that once separated our realms, to degrade.

The vision, the lights, the plants. ...
Things happened fast over the next week, it started off slow, with the cracks in reality appearing and disappearing, the weather hot and humid. Then strangeness took over. Plants started to glow at night with bioluminescence, daisies turning blue, glowing softly in the light of the moon. Mushrooms grew out of the grasses, as tall as trees. Their caps opening in the rain. Strange vines and plants a...
My grandmother’s reaction to my vision, cemented it’s validity in my head, my stomach churned with anxiety. She said to meet at the Manor House, she had inherited the house, and me, from my parents after the accident. The house sits on a large parcel of land, backed by the Cairngorms national park. A beautiful backdrop to my tragedy; I wasn’t looking forward to going back there, but I had to yield...

The sky cracks, like a pane of glass, spiderwebs of ethereal light fracturing our reality. Clouds, swirling in raging winds, turn red in warning; the ai...
I knew that this was going to be an unusual day the moment my ‘long lost’ mother showed up at my door. It was like any other day; sun shining, blue sky, light breeze, the smell of burning cat hair coming from my neighbor’s apartment. It was normal.
The moment the lady showed up at my door, I thought she was a drug dealer or homeless. Her clothes were ripped and her arms were covered in bandages. ...
