We fed the borkas and had a good time . We’re not really supposed to feed them but some of us in the village do . A lot of them have become dependent , so we kind of have to . Whenever the numbers get high the butchers , hunters , and other villagers just kill a few for free meat . It’s kind of dark when I think about it . I would never bring it up to Goldy though . I’d imagine it to be a mood killer .

Unwilling
A grown woman, at least by her own standards, Isabelle sat at the grind stone in her father’s forge. The large stone was being spun by the waterwheel being dipped into the river right outside the workshop. The river wasn’t the grandest, and Desmond, on more than one occasion, complained about the slow speed of the running water.

Circus: Hells Kitchen Chapter 2
Crack the Whip The wave of bats reformed into K sliding towards the scene. A scene he hasn’t allowed himself to forget even to this very day. K dropped to his knees, crying for the first time in his existence. Crying at the site of the big top on fire. Burning a dark blue and yellow flame. Burning under a dark sky that only smiled in K’s pale face.

Orion's Dragon
A dragon’s existence was nothing short of extraordinary. In the Proioxis star system the sightings of supernovas were not only signs of wonder, but of new birth. Each time a star died a new dragon was brought into being. The great beasts that flew through the forests of the galaxy, their bodies a mesmerizing shade of colors as if made from the embers of the dying stars. They danced among the cosmos, scales shining brighter than any obstacle they passed. Each dragon was at least the size of the smallest space cruiser, large enough to fit an entire town of people on board. Yet for their size and iridescent scales, sightings were rare, and photos ever rarer. The few photos that existed were blurry, the dragon’s outline nothing more than a faint blur that could just as easily be a rather large cloud of gas and dust. When humanity had reached for the stars thousands of years ago, they hadn’t expected to find the creatures, and it seemed the dragons were determined to remain as elusive as possible. So, humanity tore their eyes from the beasts and looked to the other mysteries of the galaxy. In their minds, they thought that if they explored the galaxy’s every other facet they would have to run into the dragons sooner or later. Nothing could remain unknown forever.

The Jenny
The forest canopy, pierced by strobes of moonlight, illuminated Teddy's path as he escaped his prison of three years. Most wouldn't think of the estate as a jail from afar with the mansion's nineteenth-century Georgian columned porch, stonewall, manicured lawn, and trimmed hedges. A well-appointed sign at the end of the long gravel driveway read, Boys Home of Americus.

Orb of Gidae
We stayed the night with Dioney. Misuni wanted to stay longer, studying the cave drawings that Dioney had created over the last hundred years or so. She often drew what she saw in her visions. The history of many peoples was found on her walls. So we stayed for another two nights, and Dioney and I grew closer still. She had often fascinated me, and I could tell her visions often burdened her. I visited her until I was fully grown and the wars had started in earnest. By then I was tired of the world and had decided to stay by myself in the forest. I didn't realize how much I had missed until then.
