The cold steel room she slept in smelled of nothing. No colour but black and white seem to exist as cool wind enters through an opened window large enough for someone of modest size to nicely slip through. It was a cool night, the weather was fine and will continue to be fine for the next...

A flash of a blade, made of light, as it cleaves through your arm…. A bang of a gun, the barrel placed against your skull, the flickering instance of heat before nothingness…. Four black wings and a spear of blinding pink light, and then cold… The echo of a voice, speaking from a great...

Black Kingdom Rising The war between good and evil is a never-ending one. Without good, there is no evil. Without evil, there can be no good. Just as darkness needs light to cast a shadow upon the world, light needs darkness to shine brightly across the world. And so in the modern age, nearly...
