Shadow Over Delphinidae

Waking up in a cold sweat, Alex sat up, trying his best to wrap his head around the dreams that had all but burrowed into his head. It was not the first time in recent days he had awakened in such a way. In fact, the remnants of that very dream had...

Let Yourself Relax and Bray

Sighing, Camilla pulled away from the computer screen, eyes hurting from the hours she'd spent studying. Midterms were coming up, and her animal husbandry course grades were not where she wanted them to be. A poor performance on the test would be...
