Authors note on the geography of the world: The land of Faerûn is a continent on the world of Toril that is on the Prime Material Plane. There are many other planes of existence, such as the Demonweb Pits where Lolth is located and other planes where the other gods and goddess's reside; there are the Nine Planes of Hell, the Sixty Nine layers of the Abyss, a...
The night feels hot and humid against my skin. No sign of a breeze through the open sliding door. A thunderstorm in the making, I think as I look at the clock. God, I wish it would rain. I really do love the rain. The air is heavy around us as we lay in our bed. I turn to look at you, see you lying beside me. I think about how I never get tired of watching y...
She was held safely in the warm embrace of the comforter when something brought her from sleep. She sat bolt upright and gasped. When she saw the lightening outside the window she knew what had roused her from sleep. "Thunder, it was only thunder." She smiled to herself and lay back down. After she'd lain back down and she heard the rain beating down on the...
They had rented the cabin for the weekend. It was supposed to be a fishing weekend. He had made plans. This was to be his get away and it was raining. Angry he slammed his fist against the wall. Why rain? Why now? He never heard her walk up behind him. "So, is it such a bad day my sweet?" She smiled. He glared at her, not a word, just a glare. Women......
I've lived in Vancouver long enough to be used to the rain, even joining with so many in not bothering with an umbrella when it only falls slightly heavier than a mist. However the winter storms can be deceptively fierce, and move in awfully quickly. Unprepared one can find oneself drenched to the bone. Even with my small umbrella I was getting that way, wo...
It was a rainy Sunday and she was just finishing making the bed. She didn't know it but he had been watching her from the doorway of their bedroom. It always made him want her, you see she always did the cleaning in the nude. She told him when they first met the reason he enjoyed to clean in the nude, was it always put her n positions for great sex. She was...
She had been sitting outside for about thirty minutes, waiting for him to come home from work, and watching the clouds build up to the northwest of them. There was a distant rumble of thunder and a few brief glimpses of lightening. And then she heard the siren go off on the golf course behind the house and knew that the storm was headed their way. Soon, she...
"What about you? What will you do if he does divorce you?" She looked at me as though surprised at the change of direction. "Oh, I'll be alright, I suppose. I signed a pre-nup, you know." I should have known that, she was his third wife and he is obviously no fool regarding his money. "Oh, that's probably too bad, huh?" "No, not really. He took pretty go...
Sometime later the mound of goblin bodies had been stripped and laid out in two long rows. Twenty two bodies in total, including the three goblins who had attacked him first. He had made Opal climb down and drag them up into the camp one by one. At the end was the crown of the spread, the large muscled goblin which Rain had found away from the rest where it...
When I was 19 I spent my summer picking strawberries at a local fruit farm. As the strawberry picking season runs from the end of May until the middle to end of August, this fitted in perfectly with my summer break from university. There were about 20 of us pickers working there, most of whom were women from low-income famalies trying to boost the pay of th...
