The Looking Glass

The walk from my truck wasn’t to far from the beach so I carried my telescope instead of rolling it along the sand. Denver jumped out of the truck from the passenger door, and ran towards the beach to chase the seagulls wagging his tail in a frenzy. The telescope wasn’t heavy enough to ask […]

He Who Casts The Shadow

A quiet town named Charon loomed in the distance ahead, and the cowboy rode east into the dawn light. The Cowboy had been riding for days and his mare was growing weaker as they pressed on triumphantly with little rest.

The Speaker

A necromantic looking speaker shrieks into the microphone. A deafening shriek, that screams at you like a tortured soul that’s waiting to be released from its twisted hell.
