Sun drops.
Wearwolves prance around in the dark.
Glitter glows amidst the sky,
And there is a girl with eyes full of tragedy,
Painting this night.
Slightly around the corner,
Lies a town.
Where white knuckles bleed,
Shades of horror,
This boy doesn't realise,
He holds pockets full of sorrow.
Slowly as the clock ticks five,
There is a melody so glee,
One would believe happiness lies thee
But there cradles an old woman,
In her chest,
Pain, yet gracefully.
The lights blink off,
Shudders,
A young girl,
For the streets stay no longer safe
Monsters,
Ploying their next prey.
Across the street
Lives a man,
responsibilities he wears upon his chest,
Like a crown of miseries.
He struggles to keep his mind at rest.
And here we are
Wrapped in layers of warmth of home,
Yet lamenting of extraneous things,
We don't have on hold.

A Larper Gets Isekai'd to a Fantasy World
As a child, Clyde saw medieval reenactors in a park fighting in full plate armor. Infatuated, he studied historical martial arts, became a battle junkie, and even won a sponsorship to Europe by dominating tournaments. Clyde’s best friend introduced him to a live action role play group, and after becoming mechanically skilled in the system and mastering every class and ability, he was pulled into another world- which just so happens to operate with the same rules for its magic and classes as the LARP group! Unfortunately for Clyde, though, he was dealt a terrible hand and wasn't summoned as a hero, knight, or nobility… but as a slave.

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021.
