    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Once, Pangea had been their home - and land whose inhabitants were off-limits to harm from this creature and its children. But that had changed. The master was there but not, content to allow her st...

    Together, they end it. Two queens, a perfect partnership. A victorious crow escapes the horned queen when the final strike lands, when the life finally bleeds out of the strange creature. The haunti...

    For once, the creature is not hungry. Not in an intense way, not the way it normally feels hunger. It had recently fed on a scrawny stag who was only just beginning to fatten again with the coming o...
