First Impressions
Standing in front of the resort's doors, Petir shivered. It was a cold winter's day, dark and cloudy, miserable really, all the more reason to enter a warm, bright building and yet the man hesitated. There was something imposing about the tall, red...
To Be Left Together
You're alone. You can't recall quite how it happened. In one moment, you were getting ready to bunk down for the night despite the cheering and carousing of your comrades, pleased with a job well done and then in the next you were on your feet...
Egg End
The man stepped forward into the darkness because he had no other choice. They waited there at the entrance with their distrustful eyes and, more importantly, their weapons of which the man had no doubt they would use. The nick on the back of his neck...
Enthralling Entertainment
They were finished, but the crowd demanded that they go on. Vix smiled and looked to each of her band members, giving each one of them a look that they returned with solemn nods. Normally they walked off the stage at this point and let the crowd ask...

Trailed Turnabout
