The Legend of Lescha
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The cabin stood in the centre of the woods cradling half of the town in the shape of a crescent moon. It was a small town. Everyone knew everyone and it rarely saw visitors. There was a school, a hospital, a sprinkling of wooden chalets, and a simple but successful logging industry. No one knew who owned the cabin; it had been abandoned for longer than almost anyone could remember. However, as in every small town, there were whispers. They told of an old man that lured in lost travellers, a spirit of the forest, missing children, a witch that controlled animals.

Meeting Imryll
Elrin was supposed to be in a hurry. He knew he was supposed to be in a hurry, but for the life of him, he could not seem to take his eyes off of the young woman humming to herself in front of her home, placing herbs from the garden into a basket. Something drew him to her. He could not figure out what it was, but he certainly would not find out by staring at her.

The Hollow Wars
I always knew heaven wasn’t meant for me. The idea was something I could never fully wrap my head around. When people would talk about the serenity and purity surrounding the ideology, the grace bestowed upon the angels, the tranquil bliss one would feel and experience in the presents of God, it was something my soul inherently knew it wasn’t destined for. Perhaps that is how I got to where I am now. Something about the darkness always comforted and calmed me, like when you closed your eyes and the world faded away.

The Wrath of Heroes
Fate has never been kind to the heroes of this world. It lifts them up, sets them on its chosen path, then drains them of all their worth and spits out their corpses. A new martyr for the masses to worship. And for what? For the good of humanity, the good of the realm. Heroes make the greatest sacrifice- their lives forfeited in exchange for another revolution around the blazing sun.

And Everything Was Gold
I awoke startled, gasping for air. Not having any clue where I was, what year it was, or hell, even who I was. I wipe the sleep from my eyes, hoping to get a better grasp on anything. I raise my hands above my head, examining the details on my arms and hands. Freckles dance across my skin, leading to small, soft hands. The room slowly comes into focus. Soft pink walls, fairy lights across the ceiling. A dresser. Table. Light. Smaller bed on the floor, surrounded by a black fuzzy carpet. Pictures of people who I assume are my friends and family. We’re all smiling. God, I wish I knew who these people were.
