“And you just found him right outside the castle? Just lying there?” came a familiar anxious voice. “Mhm, he was completely unconscious. Must have been so exhausted he couldn’t even make it through the door,” replied a lower male voice. “Nova is resting in the next room, but I’m sure she’ll want to see him when they are both awake.” Daniel stirred on his bed, his eyes slowly opening to a dark room: his room in the new castle. The door was cracked slightly and light poured in from the hall where the voices drifted from. His body was stiff but he didn’t feel any pain, even his headac

 Daniel stood there, Fay’s words ringing in his ears. He was her son? She…she was his mother? His blank stare suddenly focused on Fay’s clover green eyes, his eyes, and the few things his father had told about his mother swam through his mind. “H-how?” Daniel finally choked out. “How is this even possible?” “I know it’s hard to believe, but I am your mother,” Fay replied, giving her grave smile. “I wish I’d had more of a part of your life but I thought it was easier if you believed you were completely mortal. It was so difficult for me to leave you, Daniel, but I was

Daniel rubbed his eyes and as they adjusted from the blinding light he stared up into the lovely face of the goddess that visited him in his dreams. She was the exact picture of purity and nature, in the same flowing white dress and golden bangles, with her soft brown hair weaved with flowers and her emerald eyes dancing with mischievous delight. Her most prominent features, the two delicate antlers, were still perched on top of her head. “Hello, dear sister,” growled the Queen, watching the new arrival with pure distaste. The goddess of light smiled calmly at the dark, hostile queen. “Hello, Lilith,” replied the

Standing at the edge of the Ender Portal, Daniel paused to build his nerve and think his plan through one last time. It had taken him much longer than he expected to find the stronghold because as it turned out the entire temple was underground. He spent most of the morning locating the damn thing and then another several hours digging it up and finding the actual portal. Now, sweaty and tired, he stared into the starry blackness of the portal. The room was silent besides the bubbling of lava and the distant groaning of monsters and it gave the place an eerie, foreboding feeling. A perfect place to house a portal to the darkest and most dang

The silence that echoed through the empty halls of the decrepit White House was deafening and weighed heavily on the small survival group that took shelter within. Cities crumbled and populations plummeted when the zombie apocalypse over took the entire world. It became hard to find a decent place to take refuge with a reasonable amount of supplies and few walkers or looters. The government did their best to control the infection but soon they fell, along with every other country. This left the most secure building in America unguarded and deserted. The group that had taken over this abandoned monument consisted of six ragged travelers and o

The smell of sea salt, the sound of waves crashing against wood, and the gentle swaying of the ship were usually a perfect mix to lull Firstmate Sky into easy sleep. Tonight was a difficult night though, as Sky had so much on his mind it was hard for him to sleep peacefully. A life at sea, captaining his own ship had always been Sky’s dream and when he had been offered a job as a deckhand to a British merchant ship, he was only too happy to accept. From there he served under Captain Jin Bop, a young but honorable man, and became close friends with two other shipmates, Ross and Barney. Ross was a simple but lazy cabin boy who preferred
