Adventure
Veil of the Firstborn Part 4
Snow drifted in lazy spirals through the dead forest as Vaelin and Elira followed the worn path that twisted toward the high ridge of Wyrmcliff. The trees here were ancient, blackened as though scorched by some long-dead fire, and none bore leaves. Even in the deep silence of the wild, something in the air felt taut—like an arrow nocked but not loosed.

Mental Health and Trauma
It was a gray Monday morning when Jordan sat in the waiting room of the student counseling center. The hum of fluorescent lights and distant footsteps in the hallway felt louder than they should have. He held his phone in his hand, unlocking and locking it without reading any messages, pretending he wasn’t nervous.

Vanguard: Rise of the Forgotten
The streets of Veridia sparkled, a thin layer of normalcy painted over a city still wounded from the Architect's attack. New structures gleamed, parks flowered with genetically-engineered plant life, and the hum of hovercars sang through the skies.

Veil of the Firstborn Part 3
The morning sun broke weakly through the dense mist coiling around the valley, painting everything in a pallid gold. Vaelin tightened the leather bracer on his forearm, eyes fixed on the path ahead where the abandoned temple loomed—half-swallowed by vines and crumbling stone.
