Through And Beyond Smoke
If it’s one thing Jyllmon hates, is driving through the road in extreme darkness. To him, it felt like a horror movie where he had no idea what’s to come. It could be a random deer dashing through the streets, or a helpless woman being chased through the woods, or just simply a broken down car.

Not Today. Top Story - September 2026.
Stopping in front of the store doors, Paige checked inside her purse. Her paranoia calmed once Paige saw that her wallet was still in her purse. She smiled slightly as she grabbed the door handle. Only for the smile to disappear once the thought appeared that her credit card was not in the wallet. Even though she knew that shouldn’t be the case, Paige sighed as she let go of the door and opened her wallet. She felt relieved yet annoyed at her anxiety when she saw that her credit card was exactly where it should be.

Pernicious With A Purpose
“Olawdry, are you coming to bed yet?” Mairlz called from the bedroom. Olawdry was staring at himself in the mirror pulling down the bags underneath his red eyes. “Yes, sweetie. I’m coming.” He responded tiresome. He hit the light switch, shut the door behind him, and walked over to his side of bed where he could see the moonlight outside the window.

Gork and Slarb...Forever?
Gitfangula is a very strange place. As a planet, orbiting between the ancient worlds of Marnus and Minuous, it lives in a particular harmony with its past that many other planets and galaxies would envy and resent…if they ever managed to find it. The thing is…Gitfangula cannot be found by conventional ships that rely on anything besides timegates. This is one of the reasons why Gitfangula has been so peaceful for such a long time. The only conflicts come from within. All citizens of that orb have an instant psychic connection and can immediately detect when things do not seem stable, or if there happens to be a disturbance near one of their portals. But, since these types of disturbances were so rare, no citizen of Gitfangula ever worried about such things. It was clear that any problem within the nation and planetoids nearby were internal. No one could be blamed for the problems they faced in their relationships, their homes, their working lives…

A Breeze I Wish To Forget
The pictures upheld itself to Natajra’s standard as the driver cruises through the city. The skies were pretty, it wasn’t too hot or too cold outside, and the garden and palms trees were absolutely beautiful. Natajra pinched herself wondering if she was in heaven. “Ouch!” She whispered to herself as she rubs the tiny pain away.

Who are you?
You woke up unusually early today and decided to go for a walk. So you got out of bed, got dressed, and stepped out of your hotel. You really were looking forward to this—it felt like your first vacation since forever. You were so busy with work that you almost burned out. You loved your job, but you needed a break. Since you knew you deserved a break, you decided to go with a spontaneous trip to a random place a few hundred miles from your hometown. It seemed like a good idea. After all, you didn't want to end up getting back to work after one day of rest. You managed to find a place that was just perfect for some me time. No rush, just you and nature. Luckily, there was a hotel nearby the spot you spotted. Your hotel was located in a beautiful spot surrounded by blooming trees and huge green parks with benches here and there, with the sun sneaking between the trees, hitting the grass and making it look like a slice of heaven. You were amazed how something so simple could be so beautiful. As you kept walking, you passed a few buildings. It was hard to say if anyone lived in them or not, but you didn't think much about it at the time.
