Advertisement
1. dream of love that can never be lost. let it dance across your mind and let it slip under your walls as it seduces your memories and mythology that keeps you alive. let it destroy your morality, let it burn your sanity. let it curse your poetry and corrupt your art. let imaginary love turn your life into a joyous hell of starlight until everything burns down and until the flaming floorboards light your heart. the remnants of insanity and morality that dreams could not murder will finally burn.
2. imagine a wonderland of floating castles and checkerboard libraries filled with wisdom and blue caterpillars, dance with butterflies that disintegrate when you touch them and let yourself decay with them as you travel through archaic tunnels. enchant your own imagination with lifeless memories of the underground otherworld that intoxicate your consciousness until even your dreams are haunted with cursed delights.
3. drink the elixir of both love and imagination at the same time and let it explode within you. it's acidity will dissolve your heart and it's icy rainbow dewdrops will freeze the particles in place like a crystal cave inside the mountain of your atomic existence.
4. ice skate on the frozen particles of your love until it melts all over and you will finally understand loneliness and therefore joy as well. and with your knowledge you can bend the remnants of the frozen rainbows within your soul into play dough and mold it into palaces and dreamscapes.
5. dance with your lover, it doesnt matter whether they are real or not

Divine Progress
Progress is a dubious god. After failing him, three people are banished from modern times and sent to another world. Seemingly out of place, Christoph is snatched from his own time and plunged into a world of violence and magic with no deity to lend him support. Instead, Progress has seen fit to curse him with an eternal hunger for magical energy. Branded as a demon, he must fight for survival while battling the servants of the god who sent him there, struggling against the 'gift' that Progress bestowed upon him and the past he sought to abandon. Can he make his way across the lands and gather enough strength to survive without the blessings of the Divine? Or will the gods bend him to their will, breaking him if he seeks to resist? This is not a short story, and the plot will take many twists and turns before Christoph's journey comes to a close. After all, it is not the destination, but the Progress that matters in the end. Like many other stories on RoyalRoad, this is my first piece. Feedback is more than welcome, so please leave a reply if you have a comment or question.
