    The Drabble Writing Challenge: Warm Up

    I return to my kitchen from the garden just outside my home, carrying a wicker basket of courgettes and their flowers. A resourceful cook would make great use of all components of their ingredients, but I only liked the flowers for their color, and I picked far too many zucchini. In a fluster...

    Open Chronicles Rough Jewels and Jagged Blades

    While Kishou conversed with the merchant, one of the dwarfs returned with his sword. It may have been the one that originally took it, but if he were to be frank, he would not be able to identify them. Their unique appearance made it difficult for him to tell the difference. He could also see...

    The foreigner did lead, unaware of exactly where the stone trail would take him. No, he did know, it would lead to the garden's center where small streams of water cascaded from a quaint fountain, but around every turn of the path was a new flower that he had not seen before. It was much like...

    Kishou stopped for a moment as Amore felt the petals and identified them. He watched her face, noting the subtle changes in expression as she spoke. The foreigner smelled many things, though he did notice a particular sweetness after the Priestess' mentioning of it. "Is that what I smell?" He...

    Kishou turned his head to the sound of gentle steps behind him and was met with tightly knit brows and thinly pressed lips. The foreigner's expression remained stoic, though he did swallow hard after a moment of suffering the aid's vicious glare. Kishou's hand nearly dropped to his side until he...

    As Amore spoke with the young girl, the foreigner began to think and found himself torn over the proposition. On one hand, the Radiant Church would definitely possess vast wealth, that of which would be extremely welcomed by Kishou. On the other, he was hesitant to turn over a former comrade...

    "Good," Kishou rested close by, leaning against the wagon's wheel with folded arms. The foreigner was genuinely pleased for the merchant. He mostly watched the dwarves as business was conducted, his side feeling weightless from the absence of his sword. Surprisingly heavy is iron saturated with...

    Kishou let out a heavy sigh as he thought back. “We rode straight to the beach where Captain Alcantara was loading the surviving men back on the longboats. I remained slightly off the beach in one of the longboats and waited for the flames to die. Muirin also stayed with me, and was the one who...

    “Of course,” He made a mental note of it and tucked it within the stores of his memory. A quick glance was spared between the two as they spoke their native tongue. “I vaguely recall what he said,” A hand rose and began to idly stroke his chin, “and his name... Muirin.” After a moment spent...

    Kishou watched the young girl’s hand deftly traverse across parchment as Amore spoke, leaving in its wake eloquent scratchings of dark ink. The swordsman could read quite well but not write. Dark eyebrows subtly rose at the mentioning and condemnation of Diego’s actions. A friend he was, but...

    Quest Cult of Calamity

    A desire to smile was contained by the ominous and oppressing sense of dread that pressed on the swordsman's psyche. Onyx eyes gazed back into frigid blues as Aeyliea reminisced on a shared moment between the two. It earned a single throb from the scar on his back. Hairs stood on end and Kishou...

    Kishou, too, dismounted. In the process of doing so, his cloak opened to expose the two swords at his side. The dwarves, contrary to the mercenary’s expectations, showed a keen interest in his unique blades. A few gathered around the swordsman, peeking around each other to catch a glimpse...

    “Ah, yes,” He said after a small pause, “the body.” “Eusebius discovered the body. He was one of the two sailors that were contracted alongside myself in Alliria. From the dates listed in Captain Butragueño’s journal, the body would have been there for over a year before our arrival. The body...
