Short Story
The Blade of Nevermore
Arthur's POV Thick smoke hung in the gilded hall, filling my lungs with its putrid stench. Embers from the burnt remnants of destroyed furniture glowed in the darkness, lighting the way, as a hooded figure dragged me into the shadows. He plucked me out of my bed, threatened my life, and threw me over his broad shoulders like a sack of dirty laundry.

A Diary That Predicts Murders Before They Happen
The Strange Purchase I never intended to buy the diary. On a rainy afternoon, I wandered into a small antique shop tucked away in one of the oldest parts of the city. The place smelled of dust, old paper, and forgotten stories. Shelves were crowded with items that looked as though they hadn't been touched in decades. While browsing, I noticed a black leather diary resting inside a locked glass cabinet. Unlike everything around it, the diary seemed oddly preserved. Its cover was smooth, its pages appeared untouched, and a silver symbol was engraved on the front. The shop owner sold it to me for almost nothing. Looking back, I often wonder whether he knew exactly what he was getting rid of.

A Diary That Predicts Murders Before They Happen
The Diary in the Antique Shop I found the diary on a rainy Saturday afternoon while exploring a forgotten antique shop hidden between two abandoned buildings. The store was cluttered with dusty furniture, old clocks, and shelves packed with items that looked untouched for decades. I wasn't searching for anything specific until I noticed a black leather-bound diary resting alone inside a glass cabinet. Its cover was plain except for a single silver symbol engraved in the center. Something about it felt strangely out of place. Curious, I purchased it for twenty dollars and took it home.

Bobby and A Whole Murmuration. Top Story - June 2026.
Just outside the backyard fence, canopied by three grand wisteria trees, were five paint-worn Adirondak chairs in varying state of decay. Bobby, dispatched by his wife for ‘no husbands allowed’ gossip time with the ladies, sat camouflaged in a green chair two hours before dusk. The pine and oak strewn meadow was the perfect place for his new hobby; bird-watching.
