Adventure

Mindless; Chapter 11
I sit in a chair, my feet swinging over the tiled floor. I watch them, counting the seconds, breathing in and out in deep steady breaths, just like the Doctor told me.

Fox Hunt; Chapter 4
We make it another block before our shadow disappears into the crowd. For a second the thought that we should have approached him comes to mind, but I quickly throw it away. No, he would have run. He had been studying us. I doubt it was the last we'd see of him.

Mydus and the lost child
Little bits of gold coin, antique clutter and more odds and ends littered the forest floor at the entrance of a deep and dark cavern. The only light seen was the streams of translucent gold pushing past the canopy to gently bounce off of the mess scattered about. The natural hum of the forest was quickly interrupted but the jingle of the coins. Quiet at first, then a few loud thumps of fallen antique debris as something made it’s way past the mess.

Village Girl
A fiery heat wave smothered a barren, desolate corner of the sub-Saharan Desert. The militant flames of wind kicked the grains of sand leaping into dancing spirals, before cascading back into the dunes. The scorching sun, a spectator of its fury, stood isolated in the sky and observing nature at the hands of its mercy.

A Mother's Love
The forest always felt like magic in the morning. The early breeze caressed Dalinda's scales and kissed her nostrils awake. She blinked to see the morning sun streaming through the trees and trickling down onto the floor of her den.

A Dragon's Heart
It was a dark and stormy night. The kind of night where the wind howls and the trees bend as if they might break. The dragon had been walking through the forest for hours, searching for something to eat. He had been feeling restless and irritable lately, and no matter how much he flew or hunted, he couldn't shake the feeling. As he walked, his sharp eyes scanned the trees for any sign of movement.

The Toddler & The Dragon Tavern
Vanesa placed her hand against the door, took a quick breath, and pushed it open. Warmth wrapped around her as she entered the tavern. There were two hearths, one buried into the wall off to the left and one to the right. Artifacts decorated the walls. The bar faced her on the far side of the building. The layout drew her towards the tables situated in the center of the building as if being drawn into a loving embrace.

Dragon Breath
"There's a strange scent coming out of this forest." Narpheia said. Gravuss looked doubtfully at his companion. She was quite a beautiful dragon, despite her growing gauntness and sagging eyes. Sunlight penetrated her leathery wings in undulating patterns of dancing shadows across her scales, accentuating their unique colors of gold and green. In another life, perhaps Gravuss would have taken her for his mate, but life in its current state held little value in such things.

Penthurax sat enjoying the cool, tranquil evening in his favorite spot, the ruins of the great fortress Artarnir. The fortress was once the stronghold of the Eldermen and was the site of the last great battle between the dragons and the Eldermen. The place always made him feel powerful and confident.
