The High Priest is at my side, hand upon my bare shoulder. From the corner of my eye, he turns to face the crowd behind us.
“Now we shall witness,” he says, throwing his hands up to the sky, “the all ...
She walked out of the beach house, leaving her shoes behind. As she made her way toward the sand and water, she noted the uneven earth, beneath her. The house that she exited had been the scene of many epic events, throughout her lifetime, including an elegant dinner party that she and her husband hosted, nights before their elaborately expensive wedding. All that was behind her, now. She thou...
Mary Ann Lawless was having a good day.
Up until, with an epic display a precise footwork, she lost her balance upon the uneven ground.
Mortified and with cheeks red, Marianne pushed up from her sprawl and looked around for any witnesses.

Sarah walked across the uneven pavement. She was lost and the epic storm brewing just over the hills to the west looked bad. Then, she heard it. The sound of the engine.

strewn
among this
wasteland front,

Kristine looked outward upon the stunning landscape that appeared before her. She stood on top of a towering cliff, which offered a splendid view of this goergeous place. The green field below her stretched for miles, until eventually becoming more hilly and uneven around the base of the mountains. The blazing sunlight reflected off the shamrock green grass which was swaying gently in the warm bre...
They were on uneven ground. One was a fighter, so grandthere were epics written about him. The other was a mere child, lost and forgotten by society. They faced each other on the battlefield, and the for a moment, the war stilled. The fighter knew hundreds of ways to kill this enemy standing in front of him. Yet he froze, looking at this child holding his sword against an unpassable threat. There ...
I stumbled along the uneven cobblestones, unable to do much more than put one foot in front of the other. Voices buzzed in the back of my head: You were supposed to be a hero. This epic quest was your destiny. The path before you couldn't be more clear. How could you mess things up so completely?
I was supposed to be a hero. But right now, I didn't feel heroic. I only felt lost....
On the uneven floor, the toys are scattered. The pieces of a book lay ripped and a vase has been broken. The child threw a tantrum and this is the result. And tonight he fought his parents with all his might. But the epic battle has been lost for some and the ice cream has, in the end, remained in the fridge....
