Curtains twitched nervously, with a mixture of admiration and dread, as Charles took the long walk up the white gravelled driveway to the Manor house, that Monday morning. As he stood looking up at the tall windows, he wondered what destiny lay inside. What adventures would all this lead him on, and what wisdom would he seek? But what really concerned him,...
Chapter 9-The Maze The land of Arkhos was like a world all by itself, where heroes and monsters lived side by side performing acts of greatness that would be spoken about for generations. Unlike the monster-neutral nation of Britannia and the monster-friendly lands of Kaladesh, Arkhos was a land where one's species mattered not, rather their deeds decided...
The night was starlit with a cool breeze floating off the lake, the surrounding mountains, white-capped and cold. The Mage stands at the edge of her terrace, clad in only a thin chemise and summer cloak. Starlight hits the chemise rendering it transparent to all who would dare to look up at the balcony. Most knew better. Barefoot and hungry for the hunt, she...
It was many years ago on a certain autumn night, out in the countryside that the events of this story took place. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, and the large, full moon provided more than enough illumination to see. Three friends, on a test of courage, entered the Maize Maze. The eldest, 24, was a 5'5, busty woman named Mattie. She was bundled up in a z...
I am over 45 and to get a certain perspective, I am taking adult University courses to improve my general culture. One day, at the end of a lesson, my regular history teacher, Mrs. Clementina Maze, asked me to stay in the classroom to tell me that a specialized and renowned teacher coming from the Netherland, Mrs. Donna Karina, was in town and looking for...
The bride and groom sat beside each other at the top table, flanked on either side by the usual wedding entourage of bridesmaids, best man and close family members. Under the table the groom's hand rested gently on his new wife's thigh. It would be a couple of hours until they were alone on the dance floor for the first dance and his wife would tell him in a...
The Maze The summer had been long, hot and dry, the heat seemed eternal. At long last summer had lost its grip and autumn had come. The first leaves began to change as the main street of this little town known as Moore unfurled its décor in preparation for the annual Labor Day parade. Moore wasn’t really big enough to be considered for a notation on the sta...
Thanks again to MaaddMaaxx for editing. And a special thanks to marklion for offering praise when I needed it the most! Jason could hardly wait to get to the bakery. He felt that over the last month he and Laysea had made great strides and he thought that they might be falling in love with each other. Well, at least he was falling in love. He did not see...

She had dark brown hair that was long and framed her face. She had brown eyes, a small nose, and medium lips. Her body wasn't too muscular but she was fit because of her activities. Her breast was a...
Intrepid - 3756 C.E. Paul held Beatrice to his chest. Well, not all of her of course: just the head and shoulders. The rest of her was scattered in fragments across the living room, now so evidently the dismembered remains of an android rather than a human. It wasn't blood but a strangely viscous black liquid that seeped out of her mouth, from the stumps o...
