Entry #42

It’s been two months since what people are now starting to call the Eclipse. Or at least, the people around me. Without technology, communication is limited to local news only – no TV, no internet, no radio. Nobody knows what’s going on, though there are a few people who claim otherwise. They say it’s God’s [...]

The Thing About Ideas

“Being creative makes you a weird little beast, because everything seems so bloody interesting for some strange reason.” Add to that a constant flow of random ideas that are hard to mesh together, it’s hard to stick to one thing at a time. Here’s another one of those ideas: Two hundred years after the Eclipse, [...]

Connotations

My name is Alexander Verzande. It is not my true name, but near enough as to describe me in at least some way. Who I am is something which I can’t tell you, at least not in so many words as to be the full truth. But then, are words ever enough to describe anything [...]

The Irony of the Fey.

It would escape many a person’s thoughts, the idea that fey are masters, not of trickery, but merely of irony. A word, ironically in fact, oft-mistaken to mean something altogether more akin to trickery than what the Fey truly represent. Irony is used in mockery of its true meaning, out of ignorance instead of understanding. [...]

Trepidation

I have brought this upon myself; this endless downpour, this storm beyond words wreaking havoc on the very soul I sought to complete. The human soul was never made to be two things all at once. To be the ever-burning flame and the endless rain washing down upon it. I don’t remember when this pain [...]

Snowfall

Something I started writing a while back, from within the Jinx universe, that I never really got around to posting before. It has no real ending, but I figure I should just post it anyway. It hadn’t been long since the first snow fell, but a thick blanket already covered the entire city. She wasn’t [...]

Jinx

It may not be the best title for any project, and I certainly hope it won’t actually be jinxed, but as of now I’ve officially started writing the story I started calling Project: Jinx. I hope I’ll update it regularly, but I won’t make any promises in regards to that, or the actual quality of [...]

Guilty Truth

Guilty. Not innocent. That’s what I am. Guilty and left behind for my failures to be what I could be, had I only known my own truth. The subjective truth, that perhaps is the most objective one any of us can know, is our own truth. Someone else’s truth is inevitably biased, but our own [...]

A Promise Made

There’s one promise I did make you, you know, and that was to never give up on you. And I’m keeping that promise. Beyond reason, perhaps, but it’s a promise I made and meant, and so I’m bound to keep it until my own existence has been long-forgotten. You’re the only family I ever truly [...]

The Runesmith

A subtle mix of runes and technology, with just a hint of my own madness to put it all together. That’s the source of my particular brand of magic, and I found it to be superior to any other kind out there. So far, at least. A lot could be done with a bit of [...]
