Chapter 24 Kol actually went to bed light hearted. This day (for the most part) had been pleasant. Frego, Violet, Max, Kessa, and he had gone fishing. Frego was having fun. Kessa had recovered. It was a good day. Maybe tonight he wouldn’t dream? ‘Please Lord, no dreams.’ He was in the palace garden. TheContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”

Chapter 23 Kol was just standing in the middle of his chamber. “My king?” He wanted to say a million different things. But nothing came out. Each thought was fighting for supreme rule.

Once there was Darkness
The Fall next Part 1 “Max, where’s Kessa?” Kol asked. He felt a twinge of sadness. It was as if he was looking in a mirror, he looked thin. Other than his hair and his eyes, he didn’t recognize himself. Max lowered his gaze. “She told General Marcus and myself that she needed some time.Continue reading “Once there was Darkness”
Sick days
I went to the doctor, GP. This event was anything but free. With the introduction of covid, I had to see. This thing started out as a throat tickle. Now, I’m in quite the pickle. Dry hacking cough, turned into nasty wet cough. I know there wasn’t an elephant sitting on my chest. Maybe aContinue reading “Sick days”
