The Vadashar
I entreat you, dear reader, to take the enclosed document and ponder for a moment the scope of what my research has uncovered. At times it frightens me to think my place in Creation’s vast tapestry is so minute and possibly beneath the notice of the beings spoken of in the text. While this work …

Darkest Knight
Mirowen took a breath, her gazed fixed to the marble building before her. It was much too ostentatious. It had twenty bedrooms, each with tempered windows. That alone must have cost a fortune.

The Invasion Part 1
El’Anthar was a much different place before The Invasion. Humanity had built great kingdoms in the western part of the continent, though they weren’t immune to their own conflicts and strife. While they had two great kingdoms, one in the Ashtounge Mountains and the other in the Berisan Steppes, The Durogon, or dwarves, had feast …
What We Cant’s Always See
We all have times in our life when the fight becomes so heavy that no matter our accomplishments, lessons, or victories, we fall into a place where everything seems utterly hopeless.

Lessons Learned
I can hear it so clearly, this voice full of malice. It says: You can’t do it. You Won’t make it. Your time is up. But then the question comes to mind: Is this really true? As the miasma, this toxic fog enshrouds me, blocking my vision and choking me. Fear clutches my heart. The…...
