Magicka
Most of my life I have lived in secret, I have watched the non magick folk kill my kind because of our power, they fear us as we now fear them. So in fear I have kept everything hidden about my magick abilities. For the most part I did live a fairly normal life. My husband stood tall at 6ft 7inches, thick dark hair that always seemed to never be tamed, his dark beard helped his shamrock eyes pop out, his smile was always warm and his embrace always felt like home. My eyes on the other hand were not as stunning as his mine were an olive green, my hair just a little past my shoulders was slightly wavy and a gingerbread brown, and I stood at just 5 feet. My name is Ruby after my birth stone, my husband is Demetre, and our eight month old is Topaz, she has most of her fathers features including that heart warming smile.

The Winter Prince
Chapter Two First, second and third period went by fast and now it is time for lunch. I went to my locker and put my stuff away. I heard the familiar shriek of Amanda’s laugh and I quickly shoved my head in my locker. I was so not in the mood for her; luckily she was too busy talking and didn’t see me. Her locker was on the other side of the hall and about six lockers down from mine. She was talking to Tanzie and Danielle about the new guy and I couldn’t help but to overhear.

We Finally Have An Official 'The Empire Strikes Back' Timeline
For 40 years, Star Wars fans have wondered about the timeline for The Empire Strikes Back. Going by the events of the film, the amount of time that it seems to span can seem confusing. On one hand, the chase of the Falcon looks like it could have taken place within a relatively short amount of time, perhaps a few days. On the other hand, Luke goes through some rigorous training on Dagobah, looking tired and exhausted and learning different abilities such as lifting rocks. Surely it would make sense for his time on Dagobah to be longer than a few days. But the way that the film is cut and edited has long caused some confusion. Now, we have somewhat of an answer for canon.
