Severance Package
When the dragons of Craigheight came to raid the Raithwall Peninsula, they expected to find the Raithwall tribe to be there, either willing to surrender and join their horde--their only hope for survival--or prepared to fight in a vain attempt to keep their territory--the preferred option for some of Craigheight's greatest warriors. The truth of the matter, the Raithwall tribe surrendering would have been anti-climatic, and the Craigheights might want to butcher them all for their cowardice. If they fought back, it would have been at least with a warrior's dignity that they were slain.

Graves of swords and roses. Content Warning.
Swords. Swords, swords and more swords. It was all the eye could see. Stretching for miles, they had been planted in the ground by their tip and each blade of steel had a ring of roses placed over the handle. They were like monuments and the roses were the epitaphs.

The Dream of an Old Dog
Once upon a time, over the river and through the woods, past grandmother’s house in an abandoned cottage, there lived a stray dog. This lost cur didn’t have a name, or possessions. The only things he had were fleas, a single friend (a fellow outcast like himself) and a dream. And his dream was to eat a piece of chocolate cake. Years passed and the dog grew old and his dream slowly faded.

Where it all ends
Despite what man and science may tell us, the end of the world can begin in only one way and in one place. With the first of creation. God and the Devil. The first and His favorite child. Yes, God is the father of us all, but Bambino Numero Uno was Old Scratch, the Morningstar, the Dark One and a bunch of other old names that the Sunday school crowd long ago stopped whispering in favor of money management and the languages of love.

~*Heaven 33~*
After listening to so many John Wayne Gacy Podcasts and Documentaries, I have been thinking and feeling connections to all of his victims whom he had killed 4 decades now. And this has been popping up inside of my head for so long that what if I do a series about them but as angels? Where it will have a combination of tv shows such as Touched By An Angel and Highway to Heaven?
