The Shattered Oath Part 1
The dagger came without warning. Vaelin barely had time to twist aside as the blade hissed past his throat, grazing his skin with a cold, unnatural sharpness. The assassin moved like a wraith, black-cloaked and silent, vanishing into the shadows of the inn’s dimly lit room before he could land a counterstrike. Elira’s voice cut through the chaos—sharp, urgent.

The Silk Orchid
Chapter 1: Kessia The pale orchid stood perched on a side table overlooking the beach. Dew drops glinted on its soft, delicate petals, some sliding off and landing gently on the table. The flower appeared to weep, and Kessia admired it with a sad smile, shaking off the momentary thought that the orchid had just shivered. A soft, pink pigment emerged from the center of the flower, giving a light accent to the orchid, and perhaps a happier appearance. Kessia closed her eyes and exhaled a sigh of relief as a gentle breeze lifted the strands of blonde hair that strayed from her ponytail. When she opened them again, she was greeted with swaying palm trees and a beach as white as snow. The crystal water licked the shoreline, caressing each grain of sand with its watery touch. Kessia shifted her gaze back to the orchid, noticing something she hadn’t seen before. A shiny, iridescent green beetle on its back, nestled in between the petals. It lay motionless, its tiny legs rigid and fragile. Kessia’s smile slowly faded, a sadness misting her eyes. She clenched her trembling hand, a small tremor of unease traveling down her spine. What a beautiful place to pass away, she thought, dismissing the feeling.

CHAPTER I:The Well of Unspoken Melodies
At times, late into the night, just before dawn arrives, I find myself standing at the brink of the well behind my apartment, which is but the lame remains of a stone opening from which an unwelcome dampness and an inexplicable nostalgic odor egress. The woman I have fallen in love with exists in the silence of the well, although she has never visited, lived, or moved into this space. She could reside in the negative spaces: the interval between the drops of water, the shadow that hugs the bricks, the remembered laughter of a laugh I dreamed once. I have made a secret of her name even to myself.I met her in a jazz bar in Shinjuku, Tokyo, while the saxophone's vapid breath fogged the windows and the ice in my whiskey would freeze in time. She sat two barstools down from me and was reading from an old edition of The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, her fingers slowly stroking the book's spine as if it were an artifact of divine significance. Her hair settled as a curtain of protection between us, and every time she turned a page, the sound rumbled like nearby thunder. I made myself order another drink that I didn't want, to remain comfortable to the warm silence while she had not left. She left before the set was over and left a hair clip, which was shaped like a small sparrow.I concealed it within my pocket, where it buzzed against my thigh like a caged cicada.The hairpin now rests upon my poor, sad desk next to an unwanted stack of letters that regretfully, I have never sent. Of an evening, when the pulse of the city becomes somewhat relaxed, I will press it to my ear and imagine I can hear something—a jazz standard played backward or a train running on tracks too far out of the imagination to fully comprehend. I write her about these oddities; “The well is deeper than it seems,” I scrawl once, and crumple the paper. The language fails. It lays claims to the canted shape of desire.The dreams started in October. I am trapped in a hotel with a winding labyrinth of a space; a corridor might break into the sky without stars, an elevator opening into a field of wheat, not a cloud, or an elevator. She is always there, just out of reach type of way; a shadow out of a window, and a voice, somewhere down a corridor. At one point, a cat, a black stray that seemed to be unchanged in my likeness was about to meet me like a time traveler. Flicking its tail like a pendulum, I made eye contact, finding my girl's reflection on the solid blackness of its iris. “You are chasing a ghost, you know,” it said, though it had no working mouth. “The question is, isn't that the point of the story, for you to chase a ghost?"
