《Rusty Dream》Pittance of Nonsense
Advertisement
Life is a balance between marathon and sprint, both are integral: if you only sprint you hasten to achieve and leave no room for error–you can only patch mistakes–while if you slowly achieve, like laying bricks each day instead of all at once, it does not matter if a few slip–the struggle is not to build the monument, but to persevere. Chase something and you will never achieve it; strive towards something greater and it will fall in place along the way.
Therefore, following this corridor of speculation, in the marathon the monument falls into your hands while you strive for something else. But if you cannot sprint, the brick laying will make dull things and nothing worth the effort will come from it–to strive towards something greater, you must sprint–no? This is the first stage of life, sprints the lightning and marathons the thunder of a primordial world wracked in storm. We waken to that lightning but it cannot sustain us and so we take on the crutch of hard work, and thereby slowly regain the senses found and lost in the lightning. To regain what was lost! What lies beyond this primordial state, once the faculties return burdened and strengthened with lessons of living?
Pain of regret and longing becomes louder and deeper and the reasons of our regret become more complex and clear, until it becomes evident the mind is coming back, and that is the indication of the pathway.
Below: charcoal leftover from a while-ago-mentioned art class and large newspaper bought on the same grounds. There's an embarrassment had when the clothes overshadow the man such that the wearer is totally insufficient for the clothes– and yet it would be a greater embarrassment to let already-bought articles languish on account of meekness. They have been bought, after all, and exercising some practicality with consideration to that gratouitous done-deed compels me. In this sense, money is the equalizer of senses: a need for financial practicality, or at least recognition of financial cost, comes about.

Charcoal is hard–getting a line can be frustrating–and yet a sense of refreshment flits from this and everything which is not 8.5in x 11in.

Witch Hunt. A Warhammer Fiction
The adventures of Adebar von Bolstedt continue!Adebar von Bolstedt, fugitive noble scion of the Empire, stuck in the Great Forest of Talabecland, is gravely wounded by the bestial denizens of the dark wintery woods, only surviving due to the timely arrival of aid and relief in the form of the masters of this land.What begins as a pleasant stay with the wild noblemen of Talabecland soon becomes a matter of faith and tradition as old as the Empire itself, when he finds himself trying to root out a coven of witches from a society that prides itself on rural living and knowledge of the mysteries of the wild. This quest will either see von Bolstedt's shaken faith in his own god reforged into an intolerant blade, or shattered like ice. Word from the AuthorGreetings! Witch Hunt plays out in the much beloved Warhammer Fantasy setting (owned, of course, by Games Workshop). Do not fret, however, as I've made it a point to make the story digestible even to the uninitiated, and maybe even be a good introduction to the setting. This is the second part of the adventures of Adebar von Bolstedt, as such I recommend reading part one, titled "The Hand of Sigmar" first.While I cannot claim the places, concepts and gods etc. mentioned within as my own, the story and all characters flowed from my own fingers.
