Age of Darkness: Final Stand Review

White hot embers crackled and popped, bursting to the air. The fire was large and comfortable, but there was little glee to be found here. Men sat, helmets tucked between weary knees. Most sat in silence, some spoke in hushed whispers- voices barely rising above the scraping of tin against tin as they ate the meager nightly rations. Morale was wavering. The sky, sprinkled with diamonds gave no comfort- it was tainted- cursed with an eerie viridescent glow, infernal tongues nipping and writhing towards the sky. It was unnatural- the tell-tale sign of the Nightmares soon to come, to swarm the

Fountains Review

The thick rustle and snap of wool was deafening upon your rapidly unexpected descent. Down…down...down…down...You land with an unceremonious thud, a fluster of dust clamoring to the air at your sudden arrival, the specks flickering in the glaring sunlight that poured from the mouth of the craggy hollow above.

Astrometica Review

How many days has it been?Days have bled into weeks, and weeks into months. Months since the space station went up in flames, and by some fleeting miracle, you managed to survive by the skin of your teeth. You still couldn’t help but feel guilty- not everyone was so lucky; no one made it out with you in the emergency pod. It was a blessing and a curse. The only solace being you didn’t have to divvy up supplies, allowing the faintest flicker of hope at being able to last just a little longer: just long enough for a rescue.A flame
