《THE SECRET OF THE 23 DOORS》NIGHTMARE
Advertisement
There’s blood everywhere and my brother is lying down there. That monster standing besides my brother. He killed him...that monster killed my brother too.
He’s starring at me with his bloody eyes and laughing creepily.
I have to run, I have to run. He’s coming after me. That monster going to kill me. I am falling into a hole so dark. I can’t breathe. It swallows me up completely and it feels like forever.
“hey, wake up” it’s my brother, Iain Easton and he’s fine.
I feel like suffocating. My head’s burning like hell.
“ take a deep breath, its all okay, calm down” he says.
It’s a nightmare, again.
I get nightmares. In fact i get them so often i should be used to them by now. I’m not. No one ever really gets used to nightmares. Its already been three years I’m getting nightmares.
I tried everything psychiatrist, pills. None of it really helped.
I’m tired. I can’t sleep for too long to remember. There was a time when I actually enjoyed sleeping. In fact I slept all the time. That was before that incident three years ago.
It's six in morning. I freshen up, took a shower and went for breakfast. my brother made a sandwich. he’s three years older than me. I sat down opposite to him. We don’t talk much.
“what you saw” Iain said.
“what” I say.
“in your nightmare”
“same as before”
He didn’t ask much just nodded slightly.
I finished my sandwich and went for school.

A Queen of Ruins
Some people just want to watch the world burn. I'm not one of those people. Some people see the world as something to be saved, and brought to heights never before imagined. Again, not me.

When I hear those complaints, I can only laugh, or look at them in contempt. Life is simple, you only need to let yourself take the path you are meant for. Me, I was born a bastard, lived with my mostly sadistic half-siblings, among people who thought I was naturally inferior. And look at me now. *********** I do not claim ownership of the picture

The Spear and The Cross
The World of Marrh has been embroiled in a decades-long struggle between the eventually divided Zurul Horde and the ever-decaying Juman Empire. A war whose causes for carnage have long been forgotten. A half-orc and a human will eventually meet paths, their fates intertwined to save their dying world from their peoples' conflict and from an outsider's interference... Will they succeed, or will they succumb to failure? Only the Divine will truly know. NOTE: I upload chapters (about +2,500 words) on an irregular basis, so don't expect much from me. I write for fun only, and this book is an amateurish attempt at showcasing my world on The Spear and The Cross. If you still want to stick around, then go ahead. Maybe it'll be a fun ride. And also, a big thanks to my artist friend, Milkuii, for the wonderful cover art.
