《The call in the night, OneShots collection》The island without moon
Advertisement
The moon had gonne away as the stars, the water became quiet and dark, the depths not so deep, upon this wreck of a ship I reached shore.
I don’t remember how, in strange and chaotic moments, my ship was attacked. I just remember that when I managed to make sense of my thoughs I found myself dirty and on a ship. A little ship unadeguate to long travels, with barely any supplies.
The stars were no guides for me. The sun was hot and intense and the moon cold and insensitive, it was like being in hell. But alas my ship hitted shore on a land with no stars nor moon. The earth was dark and wet, the trees, if we want to call trees what was not, were contorted and of form not unlike some abrasct sculpure.
I walked a long way before a castle, yes a castle, appearead before me. It was magnificient giving no signs of ruins what so ever. The entrance was open so I entered and found no living thing inside, not an animal or plant. Everything seemed immobile and frozen into place. The air was slightly cold and the wind was immobile when I opened a door to somewere inside the castle and yet found nothing. I looked around and around and yet this castle of unkown origin made of stone and brick gave no access to me. It’s hall were denied to me.
Through sheer fortune I found an old book laying on the ground, a little tiny book. I readed the first pages of it, it talked about plants and someone had made notes on the margins, saying were those plants could be taken on the island.
I still wondered a long time before finding something else interesting. There was a hall, a dinning hall and it was full of food, the most precious of food uncorrputed by time. It was delicious if albeit I am still confuse at how it was still so flesh.

I arrived at a room that was like a library, but not exactly. There were books, many books, but no shelves. They were trow here in there as case dictated. I readed an open one and found it of the most horrible and horrific subjects, some things are better left in the memory, were it can die forever, not on the written page that may last for all ages to come. Still much confused I wondered a bit around the halls and noticed a shiver running through my spines when I came near a certain room.
I entered it, it was a beautiful room richly decorated to be sure. And yet I found something strange in it, a dark crystall of a type that I never saw sitting on the throne. I touched it curious and felt strange a strange sensation, my vision became confused. I started seeing strange things, the stars re-apperead, my thinking and thoughs became non-sensical. I was overhelm by a force which I can’t describe.
When I waken up I was again on my ship, having realize that I saw and went were I no man shouldn’t have.
The end.

8 1550Techno-Heretic
Eli is an ancient man sentenced to death for the crime of surpassing the sacred number of 32.8, which is the allowed percentage of increased mental ability from the use of AI chips. As he journeys through death and into a world of fantasy and magic, he finds himself approaching never before seen heights of magical power and ability. Powers that will shape the world and would see him go down in legends for generations ever after. But just because someone acquires magical abilities, that doesn't mean magic is suddenly the most important thing in their life. Some people aren't looking to be all-powerful gods, have the world bow at their feet, or spend their days obsessing over accumulating ever more power. Some people just want acceptance, stability, and the warmth of their loved ones to drive away the cold loneliness of the night. And in a world where magic is the bedrock of society, where magic is what determines who is preferred for siring children, where people with high magical ability are destined to live in great luxury and those without magic simply live to make due, this difference in values and perspective could not have a starker contrast. As Eli and the people around him navigate the misconceptions and deceptions of this world, he will represent a great and magnificent future for the human race. One where humanity will stand above the elves, dwarves, orcs, fairies, and all the horrors of the world. Sadly, men's tools are as fallible as the people who make them, and in a society where the potential of an individual is determined solely through their magical level, this seed of promise may yet turn venomous.
