The Gossip
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. What was left of it at least. Could I even call it a river, it looks not much more than a creek within a canyon carved from the monstrous force it once was. But enough of that, that was the bi product of what had been. Dry season after dry season, water becoming sparse, food running low, and tempers high within the walls of the city, let alone the villages about it. The people, they blame her, the queen that is. They say it is her fault the gods have not blessed us with rain, that they do not fill our rivers and lakes, that they do not water our lands and our crops. Maybe they are right... if you believe such things that is.

Of Sin & Sigil. Runner-Up in Fantasy Prologue II Challenge.
The river ran backwards the day the Queen vanished; That’s what the rumors spreading throughout the kingdom had said anyway. Ashbel discovered truth in these rumors as he now witnessed the odd phenomenon firsthand. What the accounts failed to mention was that all four of the kingdom's cardinal rivers followed this trend. He’d walked the city and found that each flowed back to their origin — the Tree of Salvation, Yggdrasil. Even on its lone island at the center of the city the mountainous tree dominated the scenery, casting shadows on the districts below.

A Sword Among Dragon
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. Yet, it was not the only occurrence in the realm of Chatrice. This land was plagued by such incidents since the dark magic entered the land when the sorcerer entered the kingdom. He had been caught and killed, yet the evil magic endures. Darkness has come to this kingdom, yet Queen Pourpora stood against it. King Kyron was inconsolable as the situation continued to spiral out of control. A hush of snow fell on the land for the first time. The seers were searching for a way to defeat this evil, spreading like a disease across the land. The lords were slowly turning dark and embraced the evil methods. One seer finally saw a vision and prophesied that a destroyer of magic would enter the realm. The sword will cut the power of the dark dragons and restore the peace of the land. The destroyer will be known as a Sword Among Dragons.

Babies or Beheading
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. Halfa Elizadelaine Tommward, Queen of Branham, Archduchess of the Blessed Mangroves and Protector of the King’s Raccoons, spent a significant amount of that morning ankle-deep in shit. Her feet had sunk into muck up to the ankles. This odorous glue helped her maintain her place in line as the swift current of knee-high sewage battered her legs.
