Avalon Mysts
Chapter 3 The main path ran parallel to the brook, winding in and around the underbrush that lined the banks. Little animals scurried up and down the trees, like they were playing a devilishly clever game of tag with their friends, all the while ignoring the two humans that walked amidst them.

Divine Beings
2001 Sat between two stacks of oak bookcases— one devoted entirely to old tomes of Egypt and her pharaohs, the other to the histories of Asia Minor and the Levant— was a studious eight-year-old, nosedeep in a 19th century biography. The Exploits of J. H. B. Montserrat, Volume II. She flicked through the musty pages quickly, but with a keenness uncommon of a girl her age. Not for biographies at least. Even one as fantastical as that which she had chosen.

The Guild of Thieves
*Zanetti* They called her the Ghost’s Whisper. Her true name was Zanetti, and tonight she was sneaking by the Lijun, the criminal underworld of Ettenberg. They called her the Ghost’s Whisper because that’s what she was to the rest of the world, a whisper on the wind, and like a ghost she was never truly there, the only trace of her presence being a suspicion. Zanetti slipped out of the shadows and into the market of Lijun, wearing a mask of course. Her mask was white on top, with gold and black swirls at the bottom, creating a beautiful pattern. It was a risk to stand out at the Lijun, a risk she took knowing people feared her name, and the mask was a symbol of her name.

The Holocene Extinction
Capri Smythe Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. And the end of the world didn't happen all at once or in the blink of an eye, as the old cliché often said. No, that fucked-up shit happened during a thunderous boom with lights so bright in the night sky, people thought fire had lit the heavens ablaze. And for the past two weeks, hordes of aliens in pods had invaded Earth, carrying away human females. I had managed to stay off their radar by traveling at night.
