The Trail of the Snail. Content Warning.
I dedicate this story to Charlie. *** Just at the moment that you're born, so is a snail. And so begins a relentless pursuit, a race between molluscs and mammal. Snails may look like they are aimless meanderers but this is not the case. In truth, they are the harbingers of death, and their trails, whilst seemingly random, all lead to one person: the person to whom they have been linked from the day of their arrival on Earth.

The Secrets of Kyda
To my knowledge, she was the secret within the woods. The misfit, the outcast, the daughter of the witch long since banished from our settlement. I didn’t care. I didn’t believe in fairy tales or legends. I wasn’t haunted by the shadowy darkness. I was haunted by my impulse and visions of her wild beauty.
