Lord Sterling is young, and hisContinue reading “Lord Sterling”

Sometimes
Sometimes she goes deep into the woods to dance. Sometimes it’s just her and the one who lives in the darkest part of the forest. Sometimes she dances there, among the autumn leaves, and they swirl and fly around her. And the one who lives in the darkest part of the forest, watches her. SometimesContinue reading “Sometimes”

Black feathers against pale moonlight, Glowing white against deep blackness: Heralds of the Netherworld, guardians of fates, guides of the abyss. Midwinter changesContinue reading “Ravens and Hounds”
