What Binds Us Together
When did our hearts become that of stone? When did the light of love and kindness and empathy become forsaken for the poisonous fruit of apathy?
The Wayward Knight
“I speak no lies, knight,” the witch uttered. “I only appear to those who are lost. And to those I appear before, I offer a quest. Do you wish to reclaim your heart?"
The Wayward Forest
The secret of the wayward forest lies in its heart. Where the trees grow so thick and so closely together, one would conclude the natural barrier would be cause for journey’s end.

A Compass in the Night
In those moments where the world quiets, when it’s just us, our thoughts, and the disquieting ticking of our heartbeats, we try to remember who we are. Why we are here. What it is we sought after, when we set sail upon this ocean of life to find the treasure we knew was just beyond the horizon.
The Demon’s Lesson
“Fragile minded human. Sit back. And I will show you that which you cannot see.”
The Blacksmith
We put to death those things within us speaking lies and deceit, and try harder and harder to find the voice whispering about the good sleeping within.
Only Your Best is Good Enough
“Our Best" may not be perfection, but it is persistence.
