The Boy, The Moon, and The Sun
A boy was destined to live among the stars but never reach the sun, lassoed to the crescent moon. He’d throw heinous tantrums but stayed tied. He decided to pull the leash beyond taut. It bit into his skin and deprived his lungs. The moon tilted. He sank his heels into darkness, creating wrinkles that swallowed galaxies. The leash snapped. He trampled stars and planets. Warmth poured into his soul - a welcomed change from the cold rooted there. Maybe this is why he didn’t notice the temperature. The moon yelled as he ran into the ever-burning flames of the sun.

In the Wood
If walls could talk the walls of the Brackerly’s Brews and Bones tavern would be salivating with the sinfully sordid secrets, schemes, and shifty transgressions of its slimy yet steadfast patronage of scoundrels, swindlers, and snakes. A scrumptious meal nor truly satisfying drink could not be offered here, but rest for the restless, discretion for the discretion-less, and wickedness for wickedness' sake could all be found within the walls of the Brackerly’s Brews and Bones tavern. Walls that were all too eager - to listen, to watch, to devour. There was nary a whisper the walls couldn’t catch and pocket. Every word - every action that took place before them - seeped into its cracks like sweet, vile rot that poisoned its foundation but left an endless craving for more. These walls held so much.
