Fall of Meronna
The deep, metalic aroma of blood filled the streets of Meronna. The few who survived now took refuge in the massive forge beneath the castle, cradling their children and wondering when the screams would end. In the courtyard, a handful of guards stood...
Despair
As the suns light faded over the distant horizon, a soft wind blew through Meronna, carrying the sickly stench of smoke, blood and burning flesh. The once beautiful city now stood marred by the strike of siege weapons, heavy ballista bolts protruding...
The Beginning
As the sun began to rise over the horizon, the cool morning breeze danced through the trees, stirring the thinning mist which covered the forest floor. The world was slowly coming to life, the birds beginning to sing and the crickets keeping time. Lost...
Leaving Home
With the bandits dispatched and the mysterious white fox healed and well, it wasn't long before the merchants caravan was moving again. Soon the forest parted and the sweet smell of fine wine and honey-mead wafted on the gentle breeze. On the horizon...
The Cruelty of Kindness
The rain fell upon us all the night they brought me to the gates of the afterlife, but I could hardly feel it. Even as the stench of blood filled my nostrils and the pain washed over me from the spears that had already pierced deep into my flesh, all I...

Entry 31
Dear Diary, I know it's been a while since I wrote, but really life hasn't been that exciting as of late. Only reason why I'm writing today is because I have interesting news: We have sled dogs! And by we, I mean me, Aaron and Nick. Dad wont let us...
Descent into Darkness
Vael suddenly awoke to the cool morning air, chilling him to the bone through his sweat-matted fur. The sun had barely begun to rise, setting the heavens ablaze with orange and pink hues but the beauty was marred. In the distance he saw it, great...
Princess of Knives
The setting sun cast it's dieing rays over the planes, the cool evening air carrying the sweet scent of wild Si`Laan flowers into the coming night. It had been two days since Vael and Dante left Meronna, the time spent uneventful save for the distance...
Entry 30
Dear Diary, So things have been pretty calm ever since we tried that little ritual in the book. Things have gotten back to normal mostly, what with the new greenhouse and all. Aaron and Nicolas have been spending most of their time on the internet...
