《He-Thing and the Cabal of the Cosmos》The Soul of Zolantos
Advertisement
Zolantos smiles —
a rare thing.
“This artifact
is called paper.”
he speaks,
a mournful tone in his voice,
“And those marks are words.”
He-Thing is aghast.
“But they do not speak!
I hear no voice!”
Zolantos replies,
“These words wait to speak.”
He-Thing asks, “But why?”
Zolantos replies,
“So they are there
when they are needed.”
He-Thing gasps, and
the old lantern
trembles in his fingers.
“But when is that?”
he asks.
Zolantos laughs,
though not
without bitterness.
“When a man needs them,
of course.”
“But,” asks He-Thing,
“How are such words
impelled to speak?”
Zolantos replies,
“To hear these words,
you would have to learn how to —
a laborious process.
You would rove your eyes
across the marks,
and the words would speak
in the slothful pebble
of your mind.”
He-Thing exclaims,
“What sorcery! But how
was such an art lost?”
Zolantos sighs.
“Such things
are from the Linearity.
Now — we must destroy it.”
Zolantos
unceremoniously
casts the artifact
into the fire.
It flickers
like the sun
between fingers,
and disappears
in effervescent
smoke.
He returns the bottle
and feather to his bag.
“But Teacher…”
He-Thing asks,
despite the meager
crumbs of his wisdom,
“Why do you possess
the feather and the bottle,
and why
do you carry them with you?”
In a flash of time,
Zolantos bridges the gap
between himself
and his student,
striking He-Thing in the face
with his infamous cane.
He-Thing crashes to the ground,
shrieking in pain,
blood in his mouth,
crushing his broken arm
beneath him.
And Zolantos bellows,
“Never question me
about such trivialities again!”

Caged within the Ravencourt
A short and pain-filled life was all that Melissa was given, and it wasn't until falling asleep for the last time that she was finally given something more. Waking up in a healthy and young body, and faced with an unfamiliar culture and even more inexplicable sights, Melissa had to adapt to her life new as Kalie, the third Princess of the Shattered Isles of Cerith. It didn't take long for Kalie to realize that even though she finds herself in a strange world, she may just be one of the strangest parts of it. As Kalie comes to terms with her bizarre new life, she finds herself set in the sights of the powerful new king of a far off land. Eventually finding herself taken away to be Caged within the Ravencourt. This story is world spanning, and slow to start. It's my intention to build up towards the epic story I'm hoping to tell. Don’t expect over the top powers, just smart characters using magic interestingly. And, like my other stories, the focus is on the characters themselves, less so the world they’re in. Enjoy!
