No matter the world, there are mischievous children. Adventurous scamps that do things their parents don’t know about.
In a lighthearted Friday Fiction, we’ll meet one of them. Her name is Serela, and she’s on a quest. It might be past her bedtime, but she’s committed.
As promised, so delivered: a ghoulish and disturbing ending to a tale that started so innocently.
How well do you know your neighbors? How well do you know the people you live with? The interior lives of strangers are vast and exciting. And sometimes, a little dangerous.
The waking world is madcap. For some, it is exhausting. In the dreaming dark, there are other options, strange as they may be.
What we understand is so small. What we can see is so limited. The dark holds more secrets than we’ve ever learned in the light. Jeremy is about to discover a single hidden truth. Assuming he can even understand what he’s witnessing.
If you choose to be of the night, then you must share it. If the night chooses you, there’s little to be done.
The night offers and takes so much. It’s a place where the curious, the dangerous, and the inexplicable might be found.
Curiosity is perhaps one of the strongest human traits. Deep in our bones, it sits, demanding we know more about everything.
On the beach, you’ll see many strange sights. Messages scrawled in the sand. Birds flocking in artificial half-light with something caught in their bills.
The strangest of events can interrupt a pleasant night. In part two, our unnamed beachgoer finds their calm turning ever more surreal.
Have you been to the beach at night? It’s unlike anything else in the world.
Oh good, you’re back. We needed you to finish this one. Brandon Scott may have placed the world, but it’s you exploring it.
