“Never Alone!”
― Wayne Thomas Batson, The Door Within

“There are passages and doors
And Realms that lie unseen.
There are Roads both wide and narrow
And no avenue between.
Doors Remain closed for those
Who in sad vanity yet hide.
Yet when Belief is chosen,
The key appears inside.
What is lived now will soon pass,
And what is not will come to Be.
The Door Within must open,
For one to truly see.
Do you see?
Believe and enter.”
― Wayne Thomas Batson, The Door Within

Some streak down upon you like a storm.
Others emerge after many years have passed and something forgotten is revealed.

― Wayne Thomas Batson, The Rise of the Wyrm Lord

Many are merely happy accidents—a single spark that ignites an unexpected chain of events.

Often, these unlooked for adventures require a sacrifice too great to imagine.”
