// A pair of frozen hands to hold,
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold //
7 p.m.
There was another party bound to happen and it starts in a few minutes. I grab a red solo cup filled with spiked punch and head outside.
I wasn’t up for the loud music tonight, I pull out a cigarette and keep it between my teeth; unlit.
“It’s a metaphor.” I laugh to myself referring to Augustus Waters’ words.
I rubbed my palms together as I felt the cold air rushing up to me, remembering a pair of frozen hands to hold. Lacey’s.
My thoughts had slowly drifted off to the name that repeatedly crossed my mind.
Lacey. I hadn’t really given a damn about her, well until last night. All I knew was that she was the girl my brother hooked up with a month ago. Is she feeling the cold night like I am? Oh wait she's so southern so she feels the cold. I chuckle. She’s been running through my mind after the whole fiasco last night.
“Hey.” Speaking of the devil.
“Hey.” I greet her back. She pulls the stick out of my mouth.
I was about to protest but she stops me, “uh oh, you shouldn’t waste a perfectly good joint.”
I chuckle at her remark, "Got that lighter of yours? I think I'm starting to have a special liking for it."
She smirks, "Of course, don’t forget to smile when you give It back eh?"
Yea, she’s just a girl, with a very special lighter.
// okay this is an author's note: the lighter is the one on the 1st chapter, the pink one, check on the multimedia to see it. yea

The Dungeon of Potential
there are many legends, some myth and some truth, of dragons and princesses, of demons and hero’s, and granted, many are true, but not everything is as it seems, for when you lift the veil many so called heroes are more demonic then their enemy, many princess more wicked and greedy then any dragon. Within the world of Alesia (formally known as earth), not everything is as it seems, and yet the one topic that can never be agreed upon is dungeons. dungeons, a place of wonder, a place of treasure, a place of love and passion, filled with the most beautiful and mystical creatures and landscapes ever seen. dungeons, a place of horror, a place of death, a place of heartache and despair, filled with the most menicing and soul-destroying creatures and landscapes ever seen. as for an adventurer to seek treasure, is it not fair that they have to be challenged, and should the challenge be to great for them, this is their own fault, no? well, decide now or later, it matters not, but do not view my child with prejudice, as he is only trying to protect himself. So here you go my cruel followers, life’s cruelty, a smart, and yet oh so foolish boy, Here, is The Dungeon of Potential.
8 132Arcane Societies
Secret Societies, highly influential groups of people who control the world from behind the scenes. Often, they are merely thought to be part of the wild fantasies of the most imaginative or insane people of society. Sett, a seemingly normal orphan child, shared the same thoughts. Yet, his world would be torn asunder when he found out that not only was the world controlled by these veiled organisations, but they also had access to much more than just money and influence. They were martial artists that could split the earth, magicians that could rain fire from the skies, monsters that could eat you whole, and much, much more. This is the story of Sett, an orphan who tries to live his life among the secret societies. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 111Fools of Fate
One boy survives an ordeal. Another man is killed by one. Their fates become twisted around while those who lurk behind the scenes plot and scheme against them. What happens when one stranger helps another live with himself, only to be put in his friend's shoes? "At least it is far away from that damn princess..." This is their story. This is his story. =Warning! Chapter 9 has content that may be considered extreme for some people. View at your own risk.=
8 59Phase 0: siVisPride
Note: If you cannot deal with flaw, folly, vulnerability and the cruel extremes often winning: then this story will infuriate you. This is more about learning to deal with struggle, going through it and we can do within it, versus a Weak-to-Strong type of story. Updates on Thursdays! This is a reality eeriely like our own. This is a reality that somehow produces fantasy. This is a reality that life has physically changed. This is a reality further complicated by fantasy. Their fantasy is the Shift Noumena. Instead of monsters, they have the Nulgarrt. Instead of sacred and anicent lands, people watched their own homes warp into Terminsys Cities. And magic? siVis. And it's a lot more crazy, a lot more mindbending than what they're dealing with now. We join five young women, trying their best to stay away from all of this, only for them to finally have their first experiences. They're gonna have to be forced to grow up, through these confusing and turblent times. A weird and emotional journey, versus another heroic tale.
8 222Lord of Undeath
Having woken up under the overgrown soil of the earth, he no longer walks among the living. Vast and mysterious world sprawls before his eyes, almost like an empty canvas waiting to be filled. But even a white canvas has its flaws. Unlike him who no longer hungers, tires and thirst, they tread this world. The weakness incarnate, fathers of desire, jealousy and destruction. They whom tarnish his world and bring upon unimaginable hatred. Thus, be it demons, dragons or humans. Come... Come and take salvation that he brings and join the shrouded path of the unknown. Before the foundation of life itself crumbles under his grasp and a new one rises, bend your knee and heed the call of that who has arisen. Break what binds you to this earth and join him in unlife, for he is the Lord of Undeath. I do not own the cover. If the artist wishes for me to remove it, I will.
