《The Wandering.》The Third Interlude
Advertisement
I feel the unsettlement of the Other Side. It's as if panic and fear is coursing through my veins, suffocating me with the overwhelming sense of foreboding. I know something bad is coming; the spirits are getting stronger - I can feel them. I tell my younger brother Conrad not to come out to see me, I know it's not safe for him - ghost or not.
From the age of 18, this power of mediumship has tortured me for decades, forced with the power to have communication with the dead. Of course, it meant I got to see Conrad, who was frozen at his young age eternally. However, it didn't stop me from feeling everything.
The voices never stop. Constant whispering plagues my mind, intruding on my privacy and forcing me to suffer.
The darkness is growing nonetheless, as I feel the radiation from whatever is moving within the shadows of the Other Side. I know the spirits that took my brother are rising again, but something I've never exactly come across is dwelling in the darkness, something that seems to be behind it all... An entity so malevolent my skin crawls.
I place my cup of coffee down, the china rattling as my fingers tremble. It seems my anxiety only increases with the strengthened connection to the spirits.
A little boy runs past me, jumping up from behind the kitchen table. I'm not startled, as I'm used to the spirits now. At least, he's harmless.
As I think this, the little boy freezes and turns to me, grinning, reading my mind almost.
"Hi." I whisper gently.
"Daddy's home." The little boy whispers, dark and sinister vibes radiating from him.
Then I feel the cold, the chills and the shivers.
Something is in my home. Something evil. Something dark. Something uninvited.

The White Horde (Revised)
The rewritten version of the same ongoing story, recast into Past Tense and lightly edited. Inspired by the intrigue, drama, and destruction whispered to us by ancient history, this story is set in a world where magic is slowly dying, and decadent empires struggle against each other as well as against the barbarian hordes pushing ever westward. The story is told from the viewpoints of three people whose actions will change the fate of nations and empires alike: Amazonia. More than just a female gladiator but a champion of the arena, she will win her freedom at a price: to become a Reaver Knight not seen since the days of ancient Babylonia, with a mission to save the empire that enslaved her from destruction at the hands of a rival empire, the Sasnayams. Wysper. A Celtic priestess stolen away from her homeland by Muzen, high priest of the Sasnayam deity Yun-Kax, she possesses a mana node like a second heart inside her body which Muzen rips out each time he 'sacrifices' her to their god to appease the masses. Despite her strong will, everyone has a limit, and Muzen's actions have driven Wysper close to the edge of suicide. Greywolf. Son of the infamous Shadow-walker, Ghostdog, and the Celestial Asena, who was once revered as the Wolf-mother goddess, but now guards caravans for drinking money. His boring life will change when his impulsive act puts Wysper's life in danger, yet saving her risks his death, or enslavement at Muzen's hands. And all the while, the White Horde sits on the edge of empires, biding its time...
