Always the Student
“Today. Tomorrow. Yesterday.” The words of my professor reverberate through my skull, a narrator on my commute back home. “The days tarry along as we pursue our hopes for better and best. The Drums of Everafter beat a steady rhythm, the outcome of the ballet based upon how we play the part. Each step taken, whether of dreams or sustenance, pushes us beyond our stated bounds. Only one fate comes to those who settle for room and food, same as those who seek to rouse the boards of Forevermore.” A sharp tap on the blackboard of the classroom punctuates the rhythm. A snore from somewhere rouses me from my slumber.

The Western Town
Gladdenthorpe rests just off the Coast Of Dickenshire, between Lindenquelle and Lorfendunn. This suited the citizens of Gladdenthorpe quite well. I suppose you could say they were glad about the situation, although the Truth is perhaps much murkier.

60 Seconds With Sarah
Tick. Tock. The clock struck midnight, its chime reverberating through the stillness of Sarah's grandfather's house like an ominous bell tolling in the night. Sarah lay frozen in her bed, her eyes wide open, heart pounding against her ribs as if trying to escape the confines of her chest. Each beat echoed louder than the last, drowning out the rhythmic ticking of the old mantle clock that had always been a familiar presence in the house. But tonight, that ticking seemed to mock her, a sinister accompaniment to the foreboding silence.
