Oikonny's Retribution pt.1
"So, you can alter your size at any time you want, becoming smaller or larger as the situation demands." Fox said, walking next to Steven.
"Correct. One of the perks of being a super-evolved being." the other vulpine said, with a hint of pride. The two vulpines, one more evolved than the other, were walking down the hallway to Fox's quarters. It has been only a few hours after the engagement on Corneria with the Kemur, and Fox's opinion of the newest member was starting to change. At first, he felt threatened by him, due to his abilities. However, he found out that, even a

Storm. Lightning. Rain. These were the things that Grimm woke up to, much to his surprise. It only took him a few seconds to realize that wherever he was now, it wasn't where he had fallen asleep. Wary as ever, he readied his greataxe and looked around him. It looked like any number of rocky badlands he had seen during his many travels as mercenary, but there was something subtly...off about it all. Something wasn't right.
Had the warrior known more about the Planes and cosmology of Toril, it could be he would have realized he was standing in the middle of Warrior's Rest, the realm of his deity, Tempus. But that something wasn't right, was c

"It has been some time since I left my hometown. I've faced demons and monsters. I've made allies and friends. I have even gained a pet... errr... 'companion' I suppose is more appropriate. She is now a young dragon by the name of Chelsi. When I first met her she was a baby, something must be accelerating her aging process. I have decided to keep a log of my adventures incase another elf needs them some day. Though I can not recall my past experiences well enough to catalogue them here, all future information will be written."

A Thin Thread...A Thin Thread...2 years ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes More Like This
"There's a thin line between love and hate".
I don't often listen to the ramblings of humans. Their fragile, arrogant lives hold little meaning for me; they are not worth extinguishing for life does it soon enough in the end. However, those words could not be closer to the truth. Hate is easy to feel; this world is a diseased place, ugly, selfish creatures hiding under false physical beauty and carefully constructed smiles. It's repulsive, watching them flaunt their pretty little lies while others fall headlong into the web of deceit. Yet it takes so little to unravel those thin intricate threads...a simple cut here, a warning slash there. T

D'un geste, Bélial repoussa les lourdes tentures pendues au mur, dégageant la fenêtre au verre épais. Le soleil rasant éclaboussait d'or et de trainées sanglantes le ciel au travers, l'informant que son profond sommeil avait duré presque toute la journée. Il ne s'en étonnait guère.

PerfectionSkinny legs, bigger breasts is all they want to see.Perfection2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Tiny waists and thinner arms the opposite of me.
The pressure to be perfect is slowly closing in.
An utter suffocation that doesn't seem to end.
Society is telling me beautiful is thin
and if I choose to starve myself perfection is what I win.
Shoving something down my throat will get me what I want.
Bring me closer to that goal of a body i can flaunt.
Society is telling us beauty is a prize,
measured in the size of your breasts, in weight and clothing size.
But let me tell you here and now no good will come of that.
It seems okay at first but soon it becomes a trap.

PauseLet us pausePause2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
If only for one second
Let us stop
And look at the world
Just for a minute
See the world through my eyes
The eyes of a loner
A beast
A phantom
The eyes of a ghost
See the world as I would:
Desolate and barren
A world of bitter tongues
And of hate fueled flames
That burn these cities down
Take just a minute
Slow the seconds ticking by
And look to the smog filled sky
Clouds painted with the blood
Of children shamed
Streets filled with the fallen
The ones who stood against the
Oppressors
Stop, look
Do you see?

Remember our secret letters?
Between only you and me.
Not for the world to see.
We spoke of boys
Of love and life
We reminisced of our delinquency
We shared secrets
And told jokes
I was your guardian angel
And you were my rock
You told me more than
I ever thought you could share
You entrusted me with your
Insecurities
Depression
And the lies that ran through your head
I told you of my past
The past of a loner
Someone so sad, so alone, she couldn't open up
To a world who loved her
Now, as I read back on these
Secret letters,
I remember how broken we were
How afraid we were
How lost we were
And I

Who can know what it really means?
It is forever?
Or just for now?
What will happen once the final goodbyes are said?
The final kiss is shared?
What does the future hold for two
Lost and broken souls?
All I know is, a long, hard road lies before our feet
I'll go one way, you'll go the other.
We cannot see the end.
Will our paths cross again?
Or will we forever be, walking in separate directions?
I do not know.
But my hope will carry me forward.
I will trip, I will fall, my heart will become scarred.
I will become stronger.
With my hope.
And with my knowledge, that,
Goodbye
Is just a word.

A look that drives insane
Mayhap I am a thoughtless fool
I try to speak and yet in vain
What words could describe your look?
That which makes my heart to race
They're uncontainable within a book
Given the angelic fairness of your face
A beauty reflected inside and out
Your caring demeanor seems unreal
A kindness that makes my insides shout
And a sweetness none could steal
These things I say to you
Could not be written were they not true

Darling, My Darling,
Why are you here?
The moon's at its brightest,
Does this draw you near?
You stand at my doorstep,
Calling my name.
When outside my window,
The winds stay the same.
I walk out to greet you,
With a look of despair.
But my look turns to panic,
When I gaze at your stare.
I walk over slowly,
I ask you whats wrong.
Then my panic turns to fear,
As I'm left holding on.
You lure me in,
And I blindly go.
Your hands ring me dry,
And I'm left to die.
Darling, Oh darling,
Is this what this means?
Am I just a tool,
To use as you please?
Your hands run up and down my thigh,
As I can only say goodbye.

Warriors of steel, we will stand until the end of time,
To drive the foe from the Fatherland, forever we will hold the line.
Our hearts will not fear, prepared to give my life if I must,
We shall not waver, even if the weight of time turns us into dust.
Ages may pass but our determination will never be weakened.
Though the enemy rush in like a flood or bring the mountains down, we shall never be beaten.
For our nation we will sacrifice our lives.
Forever we shall stand, until the end of time.
