Ch12-1: The Return
Posted on August 29, 2008 by Aywren in Chapter 12“There are Dragons on the horizon!” a voice called from the hall outside of TsuYa’s door. “Lord Zemi is coming!” There was a great stirring that followed the sound of the call, the Cyngan all in a flurry to rush from the compound and greet the Dreigiau’s return.

Ch7-8: JouKa
Posted on August 11, 2008 by Aywren in Chapter 07TsuYa sat at the edge of the Island. Every morning he came to watch as the fog burned away. It unfurled in a silent ritual until the mountains below emerged a deep green-grey, like a gift offered up, cupped in the palms of the earth.
