On my way back, I met many people and passed through many places I had seen while heading in the other direction. I realized that their stories hadn’t ended when I left,... 2022-12-07 14:59:02 +0000 UTC View Post

While traveling, my choices were generally spur of the moment, or driven by little more than boredom and idle curiosity. It took me years to realize that in spite of all my adventures,... 2022-11-28 17:15:10 +0000 UTC View Post

Home is defined differently in every culture. Some believe it’s wherever your family is, while for others, it’s a building, or a country. The giants of Malla Palla, however, believ... 2022-11-18 19:50:09 +0000 UTC View Post

As I'm sure you all remember, toward the end of LF, FantumHat aka Philip Clayton Harris III is holding a gun on Bree. At this point, he calls her a bitch. Now, I've waffled quite a bit abo...

Today's chapter is a kind of a choose your own adventure (except everyone has to read what I pick). I've been pondering it for a while, and there are really three options for what to do next.
