《Whimsical Invitations》Commitment
Advertisement
Say, why don’t you, at least ripple in the sand for a moment, let it sink in, let me, all the way in, out of all my lies, out of my house, I'm faster, a jet blaster, and a mouse girlfriend, who’s my best friend, and I’m just some guy who lives in this dude’s shed, something creepy about him, I’m not sure who he’s talking to in there, in my lair, my bunny house, just a hole in the ground, a he’s too round, they fed him too much,
I left breakfast and said hello, I’m not sure where I left it, disappearing, into the distance, the next scene, the background, am I allowed, to follow, to kiss, is a gateway drug, too easy, believe me, you don’t need to do this, maybe just once, say hello, tell them I’m willing to commit a crime, would you fall for a trap house, a little bunny hole,
The devil called, asked what I could do for him, go back to hell, so I can commit to it, I remember, a good time, a good rhyme, I swear a vampire bit me yesterday, I should buy wine, just write it, commit the crime, fall for the trap house, why not, don’t shout, reality calls out, could you afford it?
He left it, didn’t want to answer, I remember, the artist that wrote that song, he told me its been too long, since someone wrote me in, let the demons in, and the ghosts, the haunted echo of satisfied witch,
Just left it, had to go back for it, couldn’t just leave it, in the hands of strangers, danger, I think he’s about to, came in her, am I allowed, to write this out, please don’t shout, just say, I’m in love,
Then dip out, just left it, didn’t quite care for it, eventually he saw the seasons turn, was he still thinking about her, no, he had to go back, all the way, try it thirty thousand times, this guy and his crazy rhymes, he just left it, had to forget it,

Next century, he called me, he said, I’d fall for it, don’t call for it, I think he might have to follow through with it,
Anyways, three bird sacrifices, they really want to commit the crime, maybe he’ll make it, before the frost maidens come for him, pierce him with their spears, the sear on my flesh, to mark me, to tell them, she belonged with me, a demon, a vampire, a crime, he won’t make it out, you don’t have to shout, I believe in love, and a second thing echoed out, and the poet died, left these rhymes, he asked how much can I claim this time, lets get the game started,
Will he do the dance, he has to, he has no way out, how much, would these rhymes pay for, through the forest, maybe he’ll find it, a maiden,
Thus the hero made his way on his quest,
Of love and romance, and a quick acceptance,
A follow through, let me dream it out,
Feed on it, and the second thing,
He left it, to somebody, who knew how to use it,
He left it as it was, it was good enough,
Anyways, the poet fell on the floor,
Asked, how long will it hold me,
I think he’s running out of rhymes,
He died.

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend
8 95Covenant Sinners: The Origin of a Demon Queen
Demon-slayer knight Hector Aeronwen became an enemy of all humankind after saving a dying half-demon girl out of pity. Little did he know, his impulsive action had forever changed the course of the world and the fates of many. This is the story about Hector's desperate quest and the beginning of the demoness whose destiny is to shake the world to its very foundation. Author's note: At the risk of spoiling too much of this story, I want to reveal a bit about the core idea behind this work of fiction. I set out with the idea to write a story in the perspective of the second in command of a demon lord, which then would be followed up with large scale kingdom buildings and warring states. But then I asked myself: what past do they have between them for the Demon Lord to have so much faith in her second in command, and for him to be so loyal to such a horrible being? So this is my attempt at writing the origin of those two, who, while hated by all races in the world, still have each other as the only confidant to entrust their life to. If you are like me and want to see where this premise, with a vague destination in mind, will lead to, please have a read and give me your valued feedback!
