"You're horrible, ya know that Selina?" "Shut up!" "I mean, what did they do to deserve this?" "Shut up!" "And now look at us... We're running through the fricken woods being chased by a bunch of meat heads?!" "I said shut up!" Selina jumped over a log as she bolted headlong through the forest...

At a glance, Lapis looked like an ordinary man. However, the glowing necklace he held dear still concerned the lad in his prime. With a sigh, he grabbed his bag and headed out. "Take care lad, I've grown quite accustomed to your stat here." "Don't be sad Mr. Bishop, I promised I'd come back and...

Frostspire, the ever still mountains, derelict of all life but one. Within its embrace was a lair of massive proportion. The cave was not bare, for all was covered in either snow or ice, deep cyan in colour and as glassy as crystal surfaces. Empty it seemed, though it was not, there at the end...
