Day 2 Confined _ Wood

Bogged Detour
Kay's legs made a steady beat as he jogged on through the countryside, his breath hissed through the filter of the head enclosing mask he wore- an aid to help his lungs cope with the illness known as Scarlet's Rattle. The mask allowed him to...
Caught up in Curiosity
"Hey Draco, you in?" Blake called, wandering into the ice dragon's lab using a key he'd 'borrowed' from his last venture inside. The fox heard a few taps and clicks in the distance, either Draco had heard him and was ignoring him or he was deeply...

Preview of Wintersday Wrapping (Dec '23)
