Remembrance

“I have a proud heritage, one that stems not from nobility and long lineages but from honor and courage. My parents fought during the great war. The war that the elves call “the time of great sorrow”, while the dwarves grumble and swear “Told you so”. Some misguided humans, who desire power over all else […]

The morning came quickly as the first gray rays of light entered the valley. The gray overcast skies loomed overhead but a fresh light covering of snow seemed to cast the valley in a dazzling display of sparkling light. Kiera was the first to rise. She had sat and watched the early hours of dawn […]

Grandpa looked down at Ash and saw a spitting image of the boy’s father. The memories […]

The Faceless Enemy

A man stood looking back over the path he had traveled. He looked forward and saw only choices. So many choices and so little answers. He saw just darkness and fog, covering over the unknown path before him, as far as he could see. The dark forest seemed alive and treacherous to him. All he […]

The Mansion – ( Part III – Draumr verge)

        (Draumr Verge Part III) The vestibule, that’s about as close as I can get to giving the entry room a name, is dark and damp. The faint smell of must and dirt tickles my nose. A single candelabra lights the room, as it sits oddly on a cracked and well worn oak table. I […]

The dragon, the wolf and the castle

“I desired dragons with a profound desire.” – C.S. Lewis Why would C.S. Lewis say this? I ask why wouldn’t he?

Shattered Images

(Draumr Verge Part II) I understand now what it must be like for those that have gone mad.  My very first thoughts when it happened was “I must be going mad“ My second reaction was to turn toward heaven and call out for deliverance. I thought that the devil himself was tormenting me. I had always […]
