The winter had been much of the same; quiet. This day was more of the same. The forest was alive with sounds and yet it was dead quiet. No sound that didn’t belong existed. The birds sang and Kilbas’ hooves fell on the hardened snow, making surprisingly little sound. His muffled steps further drowned under […]
Out of the void, they appeared. Tanith had not been prepared for the change in scenery at all. She was caught off balance. “This is… where are we? I thought you were going to fix your vision?” She looked around in awe. Llyr’s clawed fingers touched her cheek and pulled her to him. “I see […]
The Hunter was following a trail that disappeared and appeared again. It was slow going and he didn’t seem to be getting much closer, although he was a master at hunting prey. He had been at it most of the summer once he had recovered. But weeks had turned into months and summer was turning […]
“I can go now, right?” He’d examined Nion thoroughly and had seemed content with the results. [Yes, but before you go, I’d like to make you a proposal.] The demon’s hand appeared next to him. “What is it?” [Come summer, I would like to begin training you vigorously.] “Why?” And for what?

The orb the demon pair had brought was now black but Tanith didn’t know what it meant. “Llyr?” she tried again, carefully. His eyes opened. The darkened orb rolled to the ground […]
A warm house was waiting in calm silence. And from nowhere a pair of demons landed in the room. “Wow…” he exhaled, still tingling from the effects of their spell. The elder demon was silent. “That was the most amazing thing I’ve ever done.” His fingertips were filled with static energy. The boy removed his […]
The snow was pouring down and the both of them were soaked, though Tanith did not know if the demon could even feel the cold anymore. He certainly wasn’t very solid anymore, and at times her hands went right through him. There was no more time and still no word from Khepre. Either they had […]
[I have something to ask of you.] Khepre was glad to finally be able to get out of his travel cloak. [But first, it is good to see you so well.] He’d brought his nephew along. “Yeah, you were gone a whole of four days, I could barely contain my suicidal tendencies.” he replied sarcastically. […]
