The Holey Hat

The Blue Knights (Woman and Man) settled their Baby Knight (Baby) with its Grand Parent Knights, then set in a Nor Nor Nor Nor Easterly direction, as was their designation and slice of the compass. One hundred days passed straight along, at least time enough, till they rested their horses to make good their pavilionContinueContinue reading “The Holey Hat”

The Council of Hats

Sheba, having discovered the meaning, returned. The City of Az was a burning desire to make hats, big ones. I am home darling!

Many Happy Returns

Az, the great city thereof, had been sliced, diced, mashed and minced by an evil despot far away who kept throwing winged stones to break the wind turbines and diverse energy infrastructure.

The Bigger Picture

At first, she decided that she might be to destroy all civilization on land, but after some discussion with the Mer People, it was decided that this might beContinueContinue reading “The Bigger Picture”

All at Sea

The small fish had swum so fast away, anywhere, away from those terrible jaws. The Blue Woman laughed, a bubble laugh, and turned around to find herself foursquare in the face, and teeth and maw of a great monster looking direct into her. Drawing her sword high up, she pushed it to strike the bigContinueContinue reading “All at Sea”
