Playing God-Part 2
I got an idea as to where the creature may have gone. I ran out of the room into a foyer filled with angry men. Many of them were talking about stringing Dr. Aldini up, while others were already working on having him ousted. The young man who’d pulled me out of the room came […]
An Uncertain Future
The day of Prince Thutmose’s funeral was both a grand celebration and a day of tears and sorrow. The temple priests carried the prince’s body from the temple to the corridors outside. The wailing women sat on their knees, lining either side of the corridor, screaming and pulling at their wigs. Behind the priests […]
Venturing into the Omniverse
Hey, how are you? Are you getting settled in okay? Cool. Here, drink this. Don’t worry, it’s a little thing X always called “coffee”. I’m horribly addicted to it. Oh, you’ve heard of it, nice. So, what would you like to do? You’ve been here for a while now, what do you think about visiting […]
Playing God-Part 1
Hey kid, good to see you again. Come on in and have a seat. I cleared my schedule for the afternoon so we can chat. Can I get you something? A cup of coffee, glass of wine, a cold beer? Cool. Let me grab that then we can get to work. Here ya go. Now, […]
Death of a Prince
I’d spent several weeks separating the ancient scrolls. Every time a jar was brought into my workspace, I’d work diligently on finding the one to the unknown god. Once I’d found a scroll from all 20 dedications, I realized that there should be a total of 76 scrolls. If I was right, that would also […]

Herr Hess
Oh good, you’re here. Right on time. Come, sit. I’ll pour us some tea and we’ll get started. I hope you understand, this is hard for me. I’ve spent my entire life hiding in the shadows. There was a time when I would have been burned at the stake just for existing. Now it […]
Kate Rhodes, Paranormal Detective
So I understand you want to hear my story? I’ve spent more than 450 years trying to stay hidden from the world. What I do isn’t for the faint of heart. I’ve seen and done things most mortals couldn’t fathom. However, this modern society does seem to be a little more accepting of the […]
X Marked the Spot
Oh hey, you’re back. I hope you’re feeling rested. How was the spa? Best foot massage ever, right? Gotta love Gorlog. She may not be much to look at, but those cloven hands of hers are amazing. Here, let me get you a drink. Tonight’s special is a Dresdanian Moon Flower tonic. You get buzzed […]
Handling the Scrolls
The next morning, I made my way to my grandfather’s workshops. I was excited to get started as this was an amazing opportunity to further my education. I threw a little food into my satchel and made my way out the door. The guards had been instructed to make sure I arrived at the workshops, […]
