Adventure
Tale of the S'mores
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The numbers 111 adorned the time-worn wooden plank, dangling by its last nail above the equally worn wooden door. A tattered front porch spanned the entire length of the small white-washed bungalow. Another more modern-looking cabin sat about 200 feet away slightly down the other side of the hill. It was from there that a woman of about 60-ish years of age troded. She tugged a red wagon filled with hand-made blankets, pillows and matching cases; and a couple of lanterns.

The mirror and the musk
At the battle of Clontarf, the Norwegians were so disgraced that the noble king summoned the poet and said to him. "The most illustrious deeds will lose their luster if they are not remembered in words. I want you to sing of my victories and praise me. I will be Aeneas, and you will be Virgil who sings about me. This event will immortalize us both; do you think you are up to the task?"

When building the Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China was completed at its northernmost point. This project started from the southeast and southwest respectively, and finally intersected here. In the east and west wall-building armies, this method of building in sections was implemented on a much smaller scale, so that the wall builders were divided into squads of about twenty men, each squad being responsible for building out five hundred meters, and then an adjacent squad would build a section of the same length toward them. However, when the two sections were connected, they did not continue to build down to the head of the kilometer, rather, the two teams were sent to a completely different area to build the Wall. This method naturally produced many large gaps, which were gradually and slowly filled in, some even after the Wall was declared completed. Yes, it is said that some of the openings were not filled at all, and although this is a view that can probably only be seen in the many legends that surround the project, the scale of the project is so large that it is impossible to verify these legends by one's own eyes and one's own standards, at least not by a single person.

The fat and the skinny
At a railroad station on the Nikolaevsky railroad, two friends met, one fat, the other skinny. The fat man had just finished lunch at the station, his lips were still oily and shiny, like ripe cherries, and he smelled of white wine and fragrant orange blossoms. The skinny man had just gotten off the carriage, straining to carry boxes, parcels and cardboard boxes, smelling of ham and coffee grounds. Behind him, a lean woman with a long chin probes, his wife, and a tall high school student with one eye squinted, his son.

Miguel & the Marker
Every night at midnight, the purple clouds came out to dance with the blushing sky. A sparkling object fell from the air. One day while riding his bike home from baseball practice, 12-year-old Miguel Taylor heard a strange whistling sound coming from the local woods. I wonder what's that? Miguel parked his bike to the side and ventured deep into the woods where the whistling grew louder by the second. He soon arrived at the source and found a small box glowing silver. The curious boy picked up the box and examined it. This is what was making that sound? I wonder what's inside it? Miguel unlocked the box and opened it to find a shiny silver marker. A marker? Ah man I was hoping it was diamonds or something. What I'm supposed to do with this, I gotta get home whoever wants this marker. I'll draw a big circle saying they can have it. Miguel drew a wide circle on the ground and dumped the marker next to it. He walked away, then suddenly the circle started to shine and Miguel noticed the light behind him. Whoa, okay I was not expecting that. The circle formed a spinning portal and Miguel picked up the marker and cautiously walked through the opening.
