《The Red Snowman》The Dance of The Dead
Advertisement
'Welcome to The Dance of the Dead' – It was a greeting written in white letters on a wide, red banner – in the language unknown to any of the visitors.
Pale sand, turquoise waters, vermillions palm trees, and bushes. It was a tranquil night.
The guests entered, one after one, and occupied chairs next to round tables under large umbrellas. They were all sitting alone, until the full moon.
Everybody looked at the waves that were crashing at the shore, with uncanny longing.
Bells started to ring and corpses were carried by the waters to the beach.
A service staff appeared on both sides of the beach. Males were wearing red suits and women were wearing green hooded robes. They started walking in lines towards the corpses and knelt next to them.
The men were sewing ruined body parts together or putting together skeletons, while ladies were applying ointments. At last, when the corpse was ready, it received a talisman.
As the talisman touched the first skeleton, it was brought back to life and approached its table.
"Miriad?" - A woman at the table covered her mouth with her gloves and cried happy tears.
The skeleton couldn't speak, but it extended his hand to the girl and invited it to dance.
One after another, all of the guests joined the ball.

Revenant
Everyone dies. Not everyone gets back up again afterward. The Deep Paths are a cursed place, meant for those similarly cursed souls whom the gods themselves denied the sweet release of death. Revenants haunt the underworld, wielding forbidden powers and often consuming those who lack the strength to join them. At least, that's the story that parents teach their kids up on the surface. Reshid can't remember what he might have done to deserve such a fate, but he learns quickly that there is more to undeath than the gods and their faithful preach to the living. Revenants have a unique connection to essential magics that allows them to develop their powers in extremely diverse ways. Wherever there is power, though, there are those seeking to wield it, whether they be governments and gods from above, or mythical elder races from below.
