The otherworldly hiss broke Moslay from his napping, sending the daggers of ice up and down his spine. As the hounds began to bark, the old man knew he was going to need the scattergun. If the graying man hadn’t enough warning, the sprite that shot in through the window gave him a certainty that […]
Wayward: Chapter Ten
Trying as he might to find the Fox village, Torqariyan dropped himself in more than a few vaguely familiar spots that he couldn’t remember for the life of him when he had visited. It was hard to land in the right place sometimes, but to find a location he had only seen for what could […]
Wayward: Chapter Nine
“This will not end quietly, it is not something that will go away independently, but must be quashed and done so violently. Your emotions, they will tell you no, just as they would deny it and demand their servants do so as well. It is why you are so vital why you must be a […]
Wayward: Chapter Eight
A glint of metal sucked up any nearby light, outlining the curving corkscrew blade the Badger drew out of her coat. A dimly lit but perfectly outlined figure of a long-eared creature stood, the soft points of the ears gave away the Rabbit in a way nothing else could. Sephera held her ground, she could […]
Wayward: Chapter Seven
Kor-Kaine was days in the past as Sephera neared Port Ty’allin, the site of the nearest portal to her homeland. Even in all the time the portals had stood open, not more than a decade but still a substantial time, did she ever once go to see one. Of course, she rarely left Kor-Kaine if […]
Wayward: Chapter Six

As though it were planned to be at that exact moment, Torqariyan’s ears were assailed by the call of seagulls as he stepped into his new body. Never before had the salty taste of the seaside air or the warmth of the sand felt so good. He hadn’t even flitted open his eyes for the […]
Wayward: Chapter Four
The moon hung low and bright over the sinking city of Fullara, the last of another year’s snow showers had just begun to peter out as the voice roused the Badger. She had been sleeping fitfully all that night but wouldn’t have ever thought the source to be tied to the Rh’euleen, Metrux, herself. Worse […]
Wayward: Chapter Three
Her perception was not a thing of sight or hearing, she couldn’t feel or catch the scent, but she sensed the Wolf. This had been a long time coming, and still, she was not prepared to engage this rebellious child, but he had forced her hand. It was a relief of sorts to know that […]
Wayward: Chapter Two
The night’s rest had been anything but restful, all hours of the night Razien tossed and turned while that voice chattered away inside his mind. At dawn, he was dressed and standing before the cave, staring down the blade that flashed an ethereal silver. Longing filled him, the desire to hold it and make it […]
