Unbeknown to the vanishing witch, under the #ash a #fragment of the tablet shone.

Its spell too powerful for her old & weak body, she’d been thrust back to the time of the Salem trials.

Her familiar meowed in hunger, she’d been left unfed.

They fell in love on an island named #Driftwood, far beyond the #geography we know.

It's been years since their bubble #burst. He's no longer sure what was real or illusion.

Now he looks for her in dreams, #sailing spaces in between.

Searching for ever after.

The #Emberveil, a land where sunlight is broken by clouds in the sky and the air shimmers with dreams. It is a place of rest, where weary souls reside between life and death. Unlike Purgatory, there is no torture here.

I didn't expect to arrive here. They assured me it was fate.

A #starwoven constellation, that was what the astrologer called it. A new combination of stars surrounding a glowing orb. The astronomer said the orb was an nebula, an explosion from millions of years ago.

But it didn't stop the soothsayers from their predictions of gloom and doom.

It's way too real from out by gloomveil to gloom and doom ville!

Halloween? there's no costume needed some kept it real!

No costume features from wannabe creatures but danger?

Some are tempting fate, to the drama; they're not strangers!

The black depths of the lake, a pool of #darkwater, sealed away by a perpetual skin of ice. The villagers warned their children to stay away. Fishermen avoided it. Who knew what lay deep within it?

Then the first cracks appeared.

It didn't take a genius to read the #signs.

#Vultures above. #Ravensong in the air. A dead body.

"There's been a murder."

" #Brilliant, sir."

"But what #monster could..."

"Sir, that scarecrow is moving."

"You don't think..."

"Run, you idiot!"

"Ah."

"Hello, my dear, can you fire up the hearth for me?"

The little #emberling crackled and hopped into the fireplace. In a moment, a warm blaze appeared among the kindling.

"Thank you. I've brought you some nice fuel to satisfy that voracious flame of yours."

I've always found the night comforting, not frightening. The hoot of the owl, the sweet melody of #ravensong, the endless chirp of the nightingale. There's a symphony, if you listen closely.

This is when I put their music to paper so they can be heard.

"What's wrong?" she grinned. "Scared?"

"I'm worried about this #Shadowgate, yes," I said. "And the giant #spiders hunting us."

"Just don't think about it," she laughed, diving through the #volatile gate on brute impulse.

Sighing, I followed.

Ah well.

A one handed war pick made of meteorite iron, the curved blade like a sickle and the pommel decorated with spikes. #Ironfang, he named it, and it lived up to that name during the wars.

Generations later, the weapon adorned the chieftain's wall in the times of peace.

#Phantom pains racked her body. The doctors and chemists could not explain their origin. The wisewomen claimed she was cursed. They all suggested cures, but none gave her any relief.

The princess prayed for deliverance, but years passed, and none came. Then the wizard arrived.

She strides through the #Everdusk, sword in hand, #wired for action.

#Cruel things lurk in the #fog. Like thieves in the night: #unseen.

And if they know what's good for them, they'll stay that way.

Little Red is on the hunt.

Be very, very quiet.

Unseen tentacles slithered through the ever-dusk fog of the forest. Any living things they encountered were unceremoniously abducted and pulled, screaming, past the rattling boneyard and thrown into the abyssal hellscape behind the secret door.

A land of perpetual night, #Everdusk. There was always a hint of glow on the horizon, as if the sun was about to rise, but it never did. Purple florescent flowers, pale skinned ghouls, and eerie faerie lights on rocky paths.

Those who ventured within never returned.

Too much time on my hands so you can catch me investigating.

Wondering; still trying to figure out what's behind the sacred door?

A lot of whispering was heard, related to loving or hating?

Maybe insipid idealism; soon we'll know the score.

"Do you hear it, the #whispering?"

I frowned and shook my head. "I don't hear anything."

She touched the door to the vault in a particular pattern and it creaked open. Inside was a treasure trove of magical artifacts: wands, staves, grimoires.

"The voices told me where to look."

#Frostspire lived up to its name. A forbidding castle of snow and ice, high in the mountain peaks. The sunlight glared off the azure walls and the pure white towers. It was hidden in plain sight, for no one could look at it directly.

Who lived up there, all alone?

It was not difficult to keep the royal family #spellbound for years. A little word here, a nudge there. Herbs to keep them compliant and open to suggestion. Discreet payments to the Kingsguard, more to the Apothecary. Stack the Council with like-minded supporters.

I held the leash.

She kept several tidy plots in her garden. Herbs, flowers, fruits and vegetables. Unbeknownst to everyone, she also kept foxglove and #nightshade in her garden. No one realized those beautiful plants could also be deadly.

She knew secrets and how to keep them.

They called the cursed tower "#Hollowkeep". Every night, winged creatures of all shapes and sizes streamed out of its windows. They feasted on any living thing unlucky enough to be out on the streets, only to return before sunrise.

Until a group of adventurers decided to cleanse it.
