And so I run, I run and the sole sound accompanying me is the clanking of my metal boots against the stone floors of the dungeon. I run. Sweltering heat washes over me as I run up the staircase and leave the giant’s skull. Broken suits of armor lay scattered around the ash-strewn bridge of floo...

The crash of energy suspends us both in the air as we are sent flying back, flung apart by the force, as if the world were cracking in two and I float, suspended, alone with my thoughts. Alone with my thoughts, same as always. It’s just you, me and e...

You’ve never understood, guy.
The entire world before my vision turns black and white from the intensity of the rising mountain of energy between us. At the twilight spot where the heavens twinkle for just this single second, in this tiny fragment of the world where the rising ...
2021-04-16 07:18:27 +0000 UTC View PostThe rest of the day passed without any further excitement and Fresh goes upstairs with gleeful eyes, opening her door to run into her room and to jump onto her new mattress with open arms. She lands down onto it, face first, kicking her feet into the air in excitement. “Jubilee! I have a mattre...

We spiral, falling down. The entity that I am descending from the cosmos for the second time today. But now, this time, I am the hand that clutches.
