 After Collin pried Donnie away from his entertainment system, they headed to the subway. Collin had remembered some things about last time, but Donnie stopped him from getting out at the same stop they had the last time Collin had followed him. It seemed that that time the Halfling had a few errands to run before getting to the Tome Shoppe that day, but this time they had a more direct route. In fact, the subway exit they came out this time was only a block from the Shoppe. As they entered there was a familiar jingle. Donnie headed further inside, but Collin had stopped. Only a few days ago, there had been a very large box right where he w

 *beep* *beep* *beep**click*. Collin rolled out of bed after he turned off his alarm. He had been sure to set the alarm today, despite and probably especially because of what had happened the previous day. Had it really happened, or was it all just a dream? He looked at his cell phone and the date said that it was Wednesday, which means that yesterday happened because he had worked overtime on Monday, and that day wasn’t that long despite how long it had felt. After taking care of hygiene, and grabbing some breakfast—mmm Poptarts—he was off to work. When he got on the subway, he subtly looked for Donnie. When he caught himsel

“You must be joking.” There were literally dozens of words in the Halfling language that described jokes. Be it practical, traditional, polytypical, etc., there was likely a Halfling word for it. Coriana was a scholar, and as such, she knew them all. However, because of the limited vocabulary she assumed of this barbarian cousin to her race didn’t know the one that suited this situation. As such, the word she used was the most basic version and could only be translated as ‘comical jest’. There was apparently a lot lost in translation, because they seemed confused and insulted. Wishing to remedy the situation, she quic

Collin stood there dumbfounded, as the shopkeeper turned and headed to the back of the store. Was this really happening? Were his questions finally going to be answered, or was this guy crazier than he was? In his own self-contemplation, Collin hadn’t even noticed that the smaller one had stayed behind until he said “C’mon, don’t just stand there. Let’s get those questions answered,” before he turned and followed. Collin only stood there for a few seconds more before saying to himself, Well, here goes, and following them to the back of the store. There he found a small coffee drinking area that most book-stores

The world outside is comforting. It’s light, mundane, and safe. It’s at night that the nightmares come out from the darkness to frighten us. But that is all they are, our imaginations playing tricks on us, misinterpreting what we see or seeing something that isn’t even there, so there really is nothing to fear. Collin’s parents tried to tell him this when he saw things that weren’t really there, even when the lights were on. As he grew older, he grew to ignore these things and just accept his parent’s explanations of what he saw. Some men are just very hairy, some ears are just odd shapes, and the rest is just hi

"Damnit, keep your elbow down." Daryu had been training his brother Tolwyn for years, but he still had yet to drop the habit of bringing his elbow to high while aiming. "If you keep doing that, every shot you make-" "-will be to low. I know you've told me a hundred times. But if I compensate by aiming too high," the younger of the pair released the arrow, and it flew to the center of the target. "I'll hit what I am aiming for." Daryu smiled at his brother's boldness. Then replied, handing him another arrow, "Do it again then." This time he struggled drawing the arrow, and when he released it fell short. Daryu kept smiling and continued "You
