One of my companions must have spoken to the denizens of this storm sealed cavern, or maybe Sareash hadContinue reading “Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P4 of 5)”

Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P3 of 5)

Chapter 3 -Edreimlecheth I had a familiar sinking feeling in my chest, salted with just a hint of burgeoning rage. I was alone now. Sareash and the rest had all left me here alone in this place. It stunk of tree needles.  “Happy holiday.” I said to myself, loud enough to get a side-eye fromContinue reading “Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P3 of 5)”
