The Mysterious Boat
Under the faint glow of the moon, a lake shimmered like glass on the outskirts of a peaceful village shrouded in fog. It was seldom visited by the villagers, especially after dark. They talked about weird things happening on the lake, like the sound of a boat appearing and then vanishes.

The Unreality
In a world far away, there was the Unreality. Since the beginning of time, this world has existed beyond knowledge. Because no being can physically travel to the Unreality. It wasn’t until people in the 1950s discovered ‘dreaming’ which allowed them to communicate with the walls of the Unreality. However, they never knew it was a different world. People believed that the 'dreams' could interpret what was going to happen in the individual's near life, like mind riddles. By analyzing every inch of the dream, it could mean several things. Such as falling could be a sign of fear of failure, or being chased could be a sign of desire to escape a fear. The meanings are endless, to the point there is no surefire way of interpreting them.

Deal with the Devil. Content Warning.
It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. "So it begins," Alastair said, laying his top hat on the hallway table of his palatial home. He had just come from a wonderful luncheon and was full of the rewards of a comfortable life.

The Greedy Pastor
It was a Sunday morning, the kind that was filled with the promise of peace and tranquility. As an usher in the local church, John's role was to ensure the smooth running of the service. He was standing at the back of the church, awaiting the arrival of the pastor when he noticed a stranger. The man was dressed in a simple, almost worn-out suit, and his eyes seemed to hold a weight that belied his appearance.

Castle Labyrinth
The ominous castle by the water loomed high above. It was a labyrinth that scared most. There was talk in the town about how the castle lost the princess it once had, and it was going to soon pick another one. "How do we even know it had a princess at all in there to begin with?" Vetiver asked her cat Lemon Square.

The Silent Scream of the Night
The nights were eerily peaceful in Shivalik, a secluded community tucked away at the foot of towering mountains. After dark, the forest's creatures appeared to hold their breath, with the breeze barely stirring at all.

Vidor
The good doctor enters the room. She approaches the curtain behind which I sit from her perspective, whereas I am before it from mine. Her fingers curl around it, but she hesitates. Perhaps she can see my silhouette thrown against it by the lamp beside me. There is an 85% chance that this is the case when considering her general observational prowess.

LOML
The wedding had been called off just moments ago. I couldn't even find myself looking at you... at the way you glossed your eyes over while talking amongst all your family and close friends; almost as if you've expected them to believe I'd just broken your heart while calling off the biggest day of my young life.
