Three Days Later...
Upon his death, it is said that it would not last. Day and night pass, his body has grown as cold as the ground - no life remained. Upon the third day, his body had vanished without any trace. Only to blindsided another by his giving hands, a comfort extended to prove it was real. Yet upon his embrace, he unleashed a plague unto Man.
Returning to life to fulfill his path, only to offer another...

Of the unspoken - Left Behind.
Walking around a new and unfamiliar town, Bryce was clueless to how different this newly taken country had developed. It was similar to one over sea but not, by it’s own right. Feeling completely isolated, like usual, he continued walking around just looking at what is being constructed. Until he grew tired of it and stopped in at the only tevern around. He drake before, during his life....

Black Powder and a Bloodshot Eye.
“Bryce!”
A faint shout barely heard among the many Musket explosions. The spraying of burning powder, the flying metal spheres crashing into their targets long before their tailing sound catches up. Bryce looked around the field of slowly lifting smoke and debris for whoever could have shouted his name. Not seeing any recognition, he stood up, facing those opposing to his end and...

Despair Remains, always.
“Bryce… I’m sorry…”
“Wait! Cypher!”
Grounded, struggling to move, Cypher strains to reach towards Bryce. Not making much progress, light tears drip from her unfocused eyes as she goes limp. Gasping a final taken breath, her head rolling to it’s center as her eyes continue looking. Staring at Bryce whom was just out of reach, who was also attempting...

This House of Dreams
Something I found interesting a short while ago was a blog over on blogger. Simply titled “This House of Dreams”. At first I thought it was just a simple personal blog with updates to a sort of ‘off-center’ individual. But after doing some research onto it, with some confirmation from an actual website, that the blog was a tease from Remedy Games. Teasing, in some form, the...

Building a Bible - By Hal Hefner.
Is your Bible really holy? If not it should be.
Now I’m NOT talking about the BIBLE… Yeah, that one–the book of morals, prophecy, wisdom and suffering written by several authors, interpreted in many ways and used as tool for good and evil throughout human history. Not that book.
I’m talking about a story bible!
If you are a creator of any universe that comes form your mind…then if you want to...

Trade Off
Part VI: Remaining among the Living - Borrowed Time. Struggling to escape, I began moving violently to get myself free. Ignoring the pain, I had to get out, I must. As my breathing began to grow heavy, my teeth clenching as tight as they could without cracking, I manage to squirm free. Taking a sigh of relief, my pain kicked back into my senses. My eyes shut hard as my hands rise to hold my torso....

Part VI: Paradox.
Snapping to, realizing he was back on his cot, staring out the flap of his tent, the man’s eyes remain open yet throbbing. Having sat there without blinking for hours. His dog next to him increasingly restless keeps nuzzling his arm over its head to get his master’s attention, to no avail. He was caught within a trance. Giving up, the pet roams the ground for a moment before...

The Locker.
Reading over my records, I came to a passage I haven’t thought about in a long time. The notes didn’t have any location data written, but I knew exactly what they were written about; the time me and a colleague went to look over a possible submerged wreckage. I failed to make such notes because of… what, we found. It wasn’t just a discovery; it was a damning.
From that...

Codex Entry - The Qun
Long ago, the Ashkaari lived in a great city by the sea. Wealth and prosperity shone upon the city like sunlight, and still its people grumbled in discontent. The Ashkaari walked the streets of his home and saw that all around him were the signs of genius: triumphs of architecture, artistic masterpieces, the palaces of wealthy merchants, libraries, and concert halls. But he also saw signs of...

Excerpt: Elirian Quest.
Excerpt from Chapter 6: Old Wounds.
Aldramek had moved towards the Inns back door as Tor was talking with the Innkeeper, distracting most of the others in the group. He lowered his packs right before the door, and as he did so, caught a glance from Calcazar. They exchanged glares for a moment, then Aldramek looked away and left the inn. He was preoccupied enough as it was for the moment. Once...

“Go now! Make sure everything is perfect working order!”
“Sir, yes Sir!”
After a brief hesitation, the man salutes, turns and walks out of the room. Another man, sitting begins to turn his chair towards a nearby window and gazes out into a vast field. Bringing his hands together, he lowers his head. Seemingly in a painstakingly manor, he sighed then lowered his arms....

Of Shedding Petals.
A Rose: sprouting from the ground in a small patch of fluffy soil. Only getting as much water as it needed, lest the rest vanish into the clotting soul. Slowly spreading it’s petals towards the shining Sun above, the puppeteer with nurturing strings as rays allow it’s bud to stand straight and tall. No other flowers to drown out it’s share.
Suddenly pulled free from the ground....

Plunging the blade into his chest, he looked into my eyes and smiled before the lights left and he collapsed. Pulling the blade free, I stand straight up - looking down at the now dead man in front of me. His words ringing in my ear. He was the Master, Keeper of the World, The God; The Seneschal.
Now dead, his power flowed into me. Insight of the World and everything flew past my eyes, the Cycle...

You are (not) alone.
Sitting against a tombstone, my mind raced to events long since past. For I couldn’t remember any real ‘peaceful’ times during my life. All I remember was… that voice. I felt myself letting go, delving into the thoughts that surfaced unto me.
Being taken back, in part to relive my revelation:
For the longest time, I thought it was just my mind speaking up. You know, when...

Praying Mantis.
I spy, with my little eye. The thing that goes bump in the night, nearby. A sense of duty, when the risks run high; the scum who wishes they didn’t try.

Permanent.
The man stood motionless at the street corner. As if in a complete daze; he stood motionless. I didn’t understand what was going on. Looking back and fourth, I didn’t see any real traffic, nor any people around him. Growing worried I approached him to see if I could be of assistance.
Having approached him, he turned to look at me. In that instance, our eyes locked. I recognized him....

I am no poet.
I am no poet
For the more words I have
the better the world I can create.
The better atmosphere I can embed,
The better emotion I can manipulate.

I am no poet
For I can only make you feel
What I want you to feel.
Rather inspire you to feel
what it is you will by your imagination.

Countering a Perdition.
The apocalypse came long after it was ‘thought’ to had been realized. Surviving the ‘end’ was no easy feat, for everything taken for granted had been taken away. Everything had to be relearned; that which had been taken over by machines, computers. I recalled being told once. “Some things now so foreign took time to understand. But coming to life or death, one takes the...

Darkside Blues
A leathery coated egg rocks back and fourth, knocking around in it’s sand buried hole. Rubbing onto rough grains of sand which falter, sticking to the shell rather, rifting a small opening to which a flipper pokes from out of. Pushing, another pokes free, causing the opening to widen and eventually rip. Sand fills the egg as the inhabitant pushes free from the shell and sand. A baby sea...

Darkside Blues
A small rabbit carelessly hops along a bush ridden trail, minding it’s own business. Nibbling at leaves hanging just low enough for it to reach; visiting each bush as it keeps moving. In the distance, a cougar locks onto this rabbit. Lowering to the ground as much as possible, regardless if the rabbit could see it or not. Keeping watch, it bids it’s time to strike. Weighing it’s...

Die another day.
Back when I was touring, won’t say where, I remember driving to a majority of places. Keeping watch of every little thing; windy days were some of the worst, to make sure the team I was with didn’t get jumped, and same with them; a Brotherhood of sorts. Recalling back to one of the days where our Senior Officer was telling us a little of his point of view, one of his realizations after...

I Remain.
Sitting inside of a helicopter, strapped to a seat alone, across from the team that picked me up. I swallowed my consciousness deep into myself. Reflecting on what I found myself amazed about that I had actually survived. Something I didn’t expect at the beginning.[[MORE]]
Reflecting back:
Standing in back of a weaponized hummer, manning a turret mounted within while the others handle the...

Eyes of a stranger
Having gotten home later than usual one night, I was weighed down with frustration. Not only from having to have stayed after on my shift, but traffic had been terrible for the past few weeks. Even though I arrived as late as I did, I still managed to have beaten her home. I Therefore decided to start making our dinner; I wanted to be romantic for her.
Changing out of my uniform I already felt...
