《Ink & Tears》Duality: Beast or Butterfly
Advertisement
There is such a duality within me lately
The happy go lucky
The optimistic slightly naïve
A child’s first remembered Christmas
Sneaking down stairs to a world of tinsel
Kaleidoscopic Christmas tree in red and green
Everyday is full of opportunity
Emerald grass shimmers in the dew
Orb of orange and yellow warmth of a lover
But the night is coming
Full of dread and loathing
The shadows whisper
Unseen things with smokey tendrils
Groping grasping with icy intent
I feel like a man torn in two
A cocoon entombing an undecided being
Each day I feel the razors
Slicing from inside
So close to the surface
But daylight is on the horizon
Sherbet bursts behind outlined pine
The thawing begins again
I feel the razors recead
Scars are the trail to whence they came
The light chasing shadows within
Like the sun hitting the east side of a tree
The surface in warmth grows no moss
But it is there
Just hidden on the side beyond observing eyes.

A Hero Past the 25th: Paradise Lost
Gather all and I will tell you a story! A story of how a champion was summoned into the doomed realm of Ortho. Of how instead of a champion, they got a woman old enough to be your mother. And what happened after that? I will tell you how the champion traveled into the Felorn Woods with her friends, in search of her lost youth. And how instead of youth, what she found was Hell itself. You don't believe me? Then go on and see for yourself. But don't come crying to me if it was too much! * * * This is the second part of A Hero Past the 25th Part 1 | Part 3 | Part 4-7
8 199Ashes of the Primordial
With the upcoming shutdown of the servers for Ragnarok Games’ deep dive VRMMO, ‘Ashes of the Primordial’, the player log of those online for the final night was depressingly empty-looking. A revolutionary level of realism drove Ashes to the forefront of the games market, billions of players enjoying their journey to power and glory as an avatar of their own creation. The final enemy of the game-world defeated, the company announced, in line with their stance from launch, that they would be shutting down the game exactly six months after the defeat of Sutr, the final boss. Ammanas, the player responsible for Sutr's defeat, stays online until the end. However, as the countdown hits 0, the start-hub of his dive rig (what would typically greet a forced ejection from a game) was no where to be seen and instead darkness greets him as he fades into unconsciousness. Awakening to unfamiliar sights in an unfamiliar body, one which turns out to be a lot more familiar than he first thought, now he must figure out where, how, why and what to do with the new world he finds himself in. Author note: I don't own the cover, just something found through a google search. This is also my first story and the MC will basically be unimaginably OP yet never really utilising his full power. He just wants to find somewhere to fit in to the new world he finds himself in and despite both his nature as a loner and his interests he will find himself forming connections with the denizens of this new realm. Hope you enjoy
