Szesh made the assumption that Erin had been here before, if he knew of other exits. It was an incorrect assumption, but when one decides to partner on the fly one must make certain allowances. He should not trust anything Erin said completely, nor should Erin completely trust him. It was the...

As much as Szesh's rigid face would allow, he smiled. Just a faint stretch of the lips, it had been an alien gesture to him until just recently. Despite the perpetual pain etched across his back, he had started to take a more accepting view of himself within the last decade. He had a few choice...

Szesh returned to his normal sitting posture as the barkeep clumsily gathered the keys. "You have business... in the cellar?" He had become better at human speech over the years, but his mouth was not well-suited for it. His teeth were too long, his lips too thin. In the first years of his exile...

It's obvious that I've been on unofficial hiatus for the past couple of months. I am happy to say that, after January 15th, I will be able to resume more regular posting. I over-extended myself a bit this past autumn, so unfortunately not all of my characters will be making a return. Please...

Welcome Purbol! I certainly would enjoy talking reptiles with you and I look forward to seeing the stories you spin!

Szesh set deep footprints in the rain-softened earth. The stable doors creaked open, and his lantern revealed his accommodations for the night. This was fine, the beds were too small anyway. A darting shadow set his nerves on edge. A bandit? A wolf? No. A cat. A black cat with staring eyes and...

Welcome!

These are beautiful!
