See the Light Chapter 2 Part 6 Song for the Souls
I played three more songs, pouring myself into each note, my voice weaving through the room. As I sang, I barely noticed the bar filling up, more and more faces turning toward me, their eyes wide with curiosity and something close to wonder. The foreign girl who played the instrument—wasn't that how they saw me? I almost smiled at the thought.

Savior of the Damned. Content Warning.
Phaedra watched the group of men at the back of the dining hall the Resurrected used. Torin had been in front, but when someone from the group at the back of the room had yelled out a challenge, she pushed forward, glaring at the one who had spoken. He was tall, though not much more than her, with average features. He could have been any square jawed man back on Terra. Nothing about him struck her as a monster. “Got a problem?” she asked.

Eternal Sacrifice Among the Stars
In the vast darkness of outer space, the spacecraft Astra Nova sailed quietly, carrying a group of researchers seeking answers to the mysteries of the galaxy. Among them were Aria and Zander, a couple brought together by fate among the shimmering stars. Over the years, they had traveled far, through various stars and planets, uncovering the secrets of the universe together. Their love was so strong that nothing seemed capable of tearing them apart.

April 22nd Eldren boarded the ’ship to be greeted by the captain. She was tall and imposing, bald, with rich umber skin and dark eyes. She was wearing a dark blue captain’s coat over a white shirt and black pants. A bandolier holding a spell cannon and cartridges across her chest, and had a cutlass strapped to her waist.

Moon Jellies
"It was a realm of liquid opal — a place of both dreams and nightmares. It was haunting and beautiful, where Moon Jellies danced like spectral ethers. Their iridescent bodies cast a mesmerizing and otherworldly light of which illuminated the ocean's depths. They moved with the grace of celestial beings, their translucent bells pulsing rhythmically with each movement."

Taking Living > Life For Granted
"Do you think life is taken for granted?" A small voice asked. Irellis was a small Fey who was often much smaller than the rest. Her starlight silver hair was wild with curls and her little cotton dress made her look like a tiny snowflake. She lay with her arms folded on a young woman's shoulder, staring out into the world that was designed on a scale too big for her.

Orso would send the summons when he was ready, so Eldren busied himself looking at the clockwork heart he had found. The heart was exquisitely crafted, resembling an anatomical heart fashioned from gears and other small parts. It also looked like it opened, judging by a small seam that ran the entire length of it. Getting it to release its secrets wasn’t as hard as he expected. As he turned it over in his hands, he thumbed something, and the gears started spinning. There was a bright flash of light as it opened. He watched in wonder as it revealed a crystal with a caterpillar inside it. Eldren reached in and marveled at the object. It looked like a Hellgem, but it was no kind of Hellgem he had ever seen. He wondered if it was special. Hellgems weren’t all that rare, but they harbored the energy of dead malignant spirits. Temple had sent him and Phae out with them once or twice before, for a boost of power. But this one was different. The energy was subtle but powerful and holding the ’gem eased some of the strain of the life he’d had.
