Author's Note: This took a little longer to get up than I was hoping for, and Chapter 7 still isn't finished and will also be delayed. Hopefully I'll get back in the swing of things now that the Holidays are over! **** Thundering hooves quaked over the rolling plains as the scouting party descended on the small village just as the sun approached the horizo...
In the beginning, The Shadow waited. The Light Lord lit up the stars and the sun, and The Shadow waited behind them. The Protean breathed life into the seas, and The Shadow waited at the bottom.

As the world loads in you rise up, drawing up your power... before unceremoniously flopping onto the ground. What's the point? The heroes would just waltz through and kill you 20 minutes from now.

They'd become known as Rift Walkers. *** The songs of sailors were...
"You'll never get away with this," I said, scowling at the accursed villain. She just laughed. How anyone so beautiful could be so evil I had no idea, but even now, suspended above an uncertain doom, I couldn't help but admire her. Or envy her, perhaps. Her classic French features, reminiscent of Catherine Deneuve or Isabelle Huppert, combined with that coo...
Author's note: As always, I would like to thank the guild for their invaluable support, and give a special thank you to my editor JillieB. ********** Garek's dark penetrating eyes scanned the darkness as he led the way down the cobbled street.
