It does not exist in the void.
 

It is surrounded by love and empathy.
 

And they feed it, fueling it in holy ways.
 

Emotions so de...

Ingratitude

 Dying is the Phoenix in the West,
 

It's flames touching the sore sea,
 

Light scorching like boiling blood

For as Persephone descends to Hades, so does Helios court the Piercer.
 

Blessed be the heavenly Scorp...

Intro on non-therian mammals

That bleach the bark and turn sap into gold.

Its head bobbing back and forth,

Piercing the dark as the night fades.

Balto 2 Review Part 1

And with all this said we dive into Balto: Wolf Quest. Or Balto II: Wolf Quest. I guess this is being a sequel is optional. Wise choice.

This was my gateway to the franchise as a whole. Like I said,...

Song Lyrics: Blessed or Cursed

You’ve been here for just two years,

I’ve been here ten times as much.

Yet I know you’re older than me,

Feline years tend to go as such.

On Fallen Máni

So, I just posted approximately 30% of what was originally going to be my first published novel. I've been working on this from 2013 onwards, and I'm still writing and re-writing the whole th...

Fallen Máni: Yew-Tree

Everything went in a blur for Silvia.

Her brother became the Moon, and the sky of their home became half-dark, half-light.

She was caught in the awe of that spectacle, until he lef...

Fallen Máni: Pear-Tree

Amidst the branches of Yggdrasil, the Moon was a flower.

Manuel learned from his sister, and now could feel it himself. Reality as he knew it wasn't so much peeled as ...

Fallen Máni: Elk-Sedge

Manuel breathed in deeply, trying to calm himself. 

Again did he try to tap into the power of his true self. As before, his mind felt overwhelmed by his cosmic nature, b...
