The bounty posting directed us to a small shop near the northern gate. A Mage's Guild symbol was emblazoned on a wooden placard outside, and the long-bearded, unkempt-robe-wearing owner fit the stereotype of the doddering old wizard so perfectly it almost made me suspicious.

I was at work and went to make a call on my cell phone when a photo memory popped up. It was a picture of my girlfriend, Sasha, from the Halloween party in Key West, called Fantasy Fest.

No one else wore long sleeves and a hood, but no one stopped him. People were more frightened by the bodies being found all over the island, or more accurately,...
Yami groaned as she sat up. However, upon recalling her dream, she grinned widely. She, and eleven others, had been gathered by Sors Nepellus, a goddess of unimaginable power, all to participate in a tournament unlike any other. At least, that's what the goddess told them, Yami thought and stood, heading to her bookshelf, where her deck sat alongside her mat...
