The Guard and the Order were hanging back, edging their ways slowly away, the dirt barely disturbed by their feet. This was not becoming a place for anyone who wanted to remain alive. Not that it was much of one before - the bodies on the ground attested to that - but at least they had a chance. With Rasmus back, it was getting out of hand. The air ( Read more... )

Hi guys and gals.

Sorry this story just sort of petered off. It became kind of difficult to keep going, so rather than give you a sub-par story, I put it on hold. I'd like to eventually finish it, but for now, that doesn't look particularly likely in the near future.

“Yes sir.” The robed guards ( Read more... )

            “So you say that Rasmus has sent wolves after us?” Santeri looked at Henrik, trying to study the old man’s face to avail. Henrik was walking briskly down the path, always looking about him, as if he expected to see something materialize in front of him. Anja walked on the other side of Santeri, to his right. Beside her walked Sofia, who ( Read more... )
