Lucas frowns a he watches the guads sitting at the tunnels entrance, looking to Tara he nods his head back to the others. The young woman slid away from her friends hiding spot and back to the others. Cela sat awake with Enialis, the others taking a much needed rest. Cela looked up from her ornate sabre as Tara sat next to Enialis."Looks like the Sariseans have already blocked of the caverns,"

The huge wooden doors stood before them, one was near rotted away the other barely hanging by it's hinges. The dark wood faded from time and the salty air. Above a crumbled gargoyle stood silent sentry, it's wings eroded away and it's head a near perfect featureless orb. Only it's eyes remained dead and unblinking. As Henry pushed at the door it swung open easily with a hideous whine.Henry looked

The heavy crack of thunder that followed the brief flash, causes the small windows in the bank to shudder. As far as Joseph Allucard was concerned it was the perfect weather for the robbery. No one would know the oncoming power outage was his fault they'll think it was the storm. Of course frying the entire section of the power grid was difficult but Allucard was never one to dismiss a challenge.

A shot rang out in the night like a crack of thunder, deafening to the ears of those around. A few ducked but Jaxin remained standing briefly before slumping to the ground. Rati, gasped as she was faced with the bloody face of Jaxin, a small hole in his forehead, she pushed back away from the fallen Jaxin, “sniper!”“Shit!,” Andre shouted as he levelled his own rifle in the direction the bullet

I hadn't been to the town for one hundred and fifty years it had changed greatly. Where once a dirt road ran through the only major street in town now lay a cobblestone road, branching off into a host of side streets. Each street itself paved with cobblestones, and lined with houses. Each house had a small modest yard lined with a small wooden fence. Each yard had a tiny garden, filled with

Lightning brightened the sky as the waves tossed the ship back and forth like an unsteady drunk. We had been out to sea for two weeks when the storm hit us. Sending massive waves taller than the four masted ship crashing onto the deck. Not even the crew dared to leave the safety of the decks below, so we sat in the mess hall or in our bunks waiting out the storm. It was in the mess hall I

As I trudged under the oppressive midday heat I passed an elderly man, sitting cross legged in the dust on the side of the road. I stopped for a moment to look at him. From where I stood I could have sworn he was dad.His flat chest stood motionless, and the dust had settled on his bald head like a blanket. As my curiosity got the better of me and I leaned closer to the old man."What may I ask

It had been unseasonably rainy the past few weeks, causing me to stay in the town longer than I had anticipated.The people were nice enough but I was eager to move on, I had been hoping to get hired on board a ship heading south to the warmer climes.

Night had come swiftly that day, the dark clouds above all but smothering the sliver of a moon vainly trying to shine it's silver light down upon us. The others were quiet, we had been fighting for almost two days straight, those that were left numbered just under fifty. On the morning we would face near two hundred foot and a hundred mounted men. It was more our fault that this situation arose,

He sighed as he stared out at the building across from his room and light another cigarette. The windows were still dark and would likely be dark for another few hours. His client had originally wanted to come with him to make sure he got the job done.

The wind howled through the leaves sending small spatters of rain falling to the already soaked ground. It had just stopped raining and although the sky hadn't yet cleared there was hope that it would. For now they would just be thankful they could possibly start a fire for once, or they would have been thankful if dry wood could be found.The pair sat huddled under a massive oak tree using their

Tara feebly tried to push his arm away, but it was already too late. As blood flowed down her shimmering black dress Jason whispered, "everything's going to be fine."As Jason walked away from the slumped woman, leaning over the balcony railing, he picked up a glass of champgne.

The sky was populated by dark clouds that day, befitting the King’s mood as he rode to meet his closest friend. At his side rode Ser Cedrik Goyne, and his daughter. As well as Lord Kevan Bloodberry, Ser Styr Evren, Ser Harrold Marth, Lord Trevor Drakken, the beautiful Lady Lucia Kendrik and her son Ser Tomas Kendrick the Young Lion, a retinue of fifty city guards and fifty of the royal guards.

Kearan walked slowly down the corridor leading up to a side door entering into the small courtyard. He was short as were all the Firstens, lithe and he wore a heavy cloak over his dark blue tunic. His dark hair peppered with grey matching the trimmed beard covering his chin. He had an easy smile under his hawk like nose, and wide set dark blue eyes.

The rain fell unrelentingly soaking his clothing in minutes. He grimaced as he hugged his rain soaked cloak to him. Little good it would do the rain had seemed to even soak through his skin. It had been raining non-stop for two weeks, the peasants he’d met on the way said the rain started when the princess was murdered. He knew that wasn’t true but he dare not say anything about it.As he passed

The sound of gunfire cut the air, as T and his men fired upon a group of ancients using a burnt out ford for cover. The van rolled up down the street and Bard, Crag, Sam, and Ark poured out. Joy was about to follow but Ark put a hand on her shoulder, “you get home and cover the feeds if the Police start looking at us.”Joy bit her lip but nodded, as Ark turned to Trey, “you get her home and get us

"Relax there chummer, Bard'll be back soon enough.""He's late," T seethed, "He knows better than to be late.""Well he is new," Ark responded idly, "you haven't drilled it into him yet.""Or maybe he stopped to chat up one of those

Ark hissed as he slipped into the van, nodding to Gozer who grunted back at him in an orkly manner. Joy greeted Ark with a smile and a thumbs up, "we did good Ark, T will be happy.""That is if he and Bard make it back," Ark grumbled sullenly."Ah they'll be fine chummer," Gozer responded blinking. The ork started the van and began to drive, seemignly of it's own accord. Although Ark knew Gozer was

"God damn gillettes," Ark whispered to himself as he slipped through the air duct, "god damned Yaks. God damn fixer, this is the last time I deal with that asshat." Some static in Ark's ear followed by a hiss cut into the man's swearing, "Ark keep it down you're gonna blow the run." "This run was fragged from the get go Joy, I have no clue why we even bothered to take it," Ark shot back as he

A streak of lightning tore the night sky, lighting up the dark room. The body had been resting on the bed for only a day. As she approached the corpse, candle in hand she could barely believe he was dead. Her father looked so peaceful, as if he were in a deep sleep, except for the otherworldly tone of his skin, it was so white it was near translucent. She sat on the edge of the bed and gazed down

"Why can't you help her?" she screamed at the balding grey haired man."Treya enough," he is doing all he can, a tall blond man said from the door to the room."He is not doing enough!" she shot back, "our daughter is laying here near death and all you can say is he is doing all he can?""I only speak the truth," he calmly returned, "you sit here day and night wasting away next to our daughters side

It was dark far too dark, she couldn't even see her hand as she waved it in front of her eyes. She felt along the wall as she continued on, not knowing where she was heading or where she had come from. Her eyes flicked back towards the direction she came from. She was greeted by the same sight she saw when facing the direction she was headed...Darkness, pure and oppressing darkness. It was

Tairen slipped through the dark hall, only the sound of his breathing reached his ears. Not that he could hear anything else in the environment suit he was wearing. Why he was the only one on this wreck was beyond him, but as old Tarhead Pete always said, orders is orders, and the captain sent him over onto the derelict craft to see what was wrong with it.Tairen leaned forwards and slid his hand

He was led into the room his hands bound in chains, his head held high. The days he spent in the dungeon had wreaked havoc on him, he was gaunt and unshaven, his hair tangled and dishevelled, but his eyes held to that dark determination he had when he first barged his way into the kings own solar with one of the kings own retainers at knife point.He allowed himself a grim smile as his eye's stole

"Durgan!" Saturos shouted back to his dwarven friend."On it lad!" Durgan shouted back as he turned to face one of the oncoming ships pouring into the motions of casting a second spell.Enialis stood by watching the flaming ship sink into the water as the men that had survived Durgan's fiery onslaught jumped overboard. As Tara and the archers picked off those remaining pirates attempting to board

Chapter 8"What do ye mean, not dwarves anymore?" Durgan asked indignantly, "the dwarves who inhabit that citadel're some o' tha bravest fighters in the realm!"Saturos motioned wildly at Durgan pleading with him to quiet, "I know Durgan, but think of it, when was the last time word was heard from them?

They had left the city before dawn, Tara and Enialis still yawning as the group rode their horses at a steady trot. Saturos and Durgan were wide awake and aware even at this early hour. Saturos rode at the head of the group while Durgan took up the rear, keeping the near sleeping pair in between them. The road ahead of them was long and by midday the group was out of the desert with still at

"No!" Edgar cried in alarm, as Tara came to the part of her story where she had snuck into the bandit camp and stolen their leader’s sword as he was yelling at the other bandits."Yes." Saturos spoke back at the laughing king, "you should have seen the man's face when he reached for it to attack me!""Aye the man fainted dead away!"

Two days after entering the arid and sparse Figaro desert the group found themselves standing in front of the east gates of the great and expansive city of Figaro. Enialis gaped, as he stared up at the walls which cleared well over twenty feet. The peak of the great doors which Durgan was quick to point out were made of pure iron and came from the Narshe mines, reached halfway up the wall. To the

"That's it keep your shield up," Saturos encouraged as Enialis deflected the large stick Saturos was using as a sword. Nearby, Tara and Durgan sat and watched Enialis and Saturos practicing.Enialis' face was tight with concentration a deep frown on his face as he jabbed his own stick towards Saturos. The half-elf's own weapon darted down and pushed aside Enialis' blow heavily. Using the momentum

"Welcome to Narshe boy!" Durgan yelled as the four travelers entered the sprawling city dominated by modest two story houses made of stone and mortar; their conical roofs sloped to allow snow and water to roll down and away from the base of the buildings.Enialis marveled at the simple yet strong structures lining the snow packed streets, his eyes shimmered as the morning sun danced off of the

"Father Sibryn? Do you really wish me to leave the cathedral?" Enialis asked of the older elf that turned to regard the much younger elf."Enialis," Father Sibryn regarded, the young black haired elf standing before him, "you have been selected for this age old tradition by sacred Luna herself.

That very night in the northern mountain ranges Corg marched at the front of the massive column of orcs carrying high the dark blue banner of his tribe. Next to him the much smaller and younger Torgrack doggedly kept pace. Corg's tribe was indeed the first to reach the Red Moon tribe, but not by hours as was expected but by days. Corg had hoped to catch the Red Moon chieftain by surprise. But as

High atop a hill overlooking the great city of Sestern Alex stood looking up at the two moons dangerously close to each other, the next evening they would cross paths. Alex had pressed the stolen horses hard and went through three of them before he got to the city. Alex slowly and calmly walked down the hill heading towards the city, he could easily walk through the main gate but the home of his

A day and a half after parting with the strange Dwarf Stagen Rockstriker Hakeem found himself trailing after a band of orc raiders. Hakeem had never seen an orc before being so far south from their territory he only had dealings with pirates that sailed down the coast and into the rivers of his dry and arid home land. Later that night Hakeem managed to sneak up on the group of ten and five well

Torgrack sat on his haunches at the top of the hill, his tongue moistening his dried lips. Torgrack had walked far and had run even further, he had been sent on a dangerous mission as had twelve others of his tribe mates. They were the swiftest scouts of the Red Moon tribe, and they conveyed an important message to the remaining tribes. Torgrack looked down towards the encampment, he had been

Chapter 2In another part of the forest a half day's ride from Alec's sleeping form, a dark figured crept through the under wood and into a small grove. The moonlight shone down on the small spring. As the man stepped into the light he cast about a bow held in his hand and a green fletched arrow pulled back on the taut bowstring. His quarry stood on the other side of the spring drinking the water

A brown feathered arrow drove itself into the ground in front of Alec, causing him to turn left. The sharp and sudden movement caused the second and third arrows to miss. Alec praised the Gods under his breath as a fourth arrow narrowly missed. Lucky for him it was dark and the archers on the wall only had a few torches of meager light to see him, and Alec was rapidly moving out of their sight

It was getting on to four and neither Shepherd nor any of his men were around. Jason had spent the last half hour walking around the park. The half an hour before that he had planned his escape route and where he'd stop to take out any pursuers he'd have to kill. All in all he thought it was a sound plan. He only wished he had a different gun, feeling the weight of the heavy revolver in his

It took some doing but Jason managed to track down the guy he was looking for, but a few days later his asking around the seediest parts of town netted him exactly what he wanted. As Jason stared into the darkness of the alley he was told to meet this guy at he clenched his hands into white knuckled fists. Ever since he had that dream he tried to stay clear of alleys altogether. Not that Jason

The car came screeching to a halt in the middle of the dark street, "You're what?!" Jason asked keeping his voice just below a shout."Don't be mad Jason I didn't mean it to happen," Susan responded sounding almost as if she were ashamed, "but I haven't been with anyone since you Jason.

"In the name of King Andareus I will slay you oath breaker!" an armored man cried out to the lone bearded figure walking out of the inn. It was just after midday and the sun was hanging heavy in the sky and the air was think with the heat. It had been a long and hard summer for the farmers in the realm. It had been even harder on the man Haramus had been sent to find. He wasn't armored and by all

In his dream he was chasing down a faceless man. The man turned into a dark alley tipping a garbage can behind him. Even as the cat sprang out of its hiding place at the horrible clanking racket the garbage can made, Jason was jumping over the battered aluminum can. Startled by the cat Jason missed his landing and his foot slid through a puddle. Jason came crashing to the ground sliding forward
