The Spear left the window of the chateau at high speed, the Christmas bells still registering on its sensory equipment, and checked its internal settings. It took GPS and fingerprint recognition readings so that it might return, having fulfilled its tasks, to the hand from which it had been launched.

The Gift of Christmas
In the darkened rooms of the chateau lay the Knight Owl in crimson gowns, recumbent upon a chaise long, the shutters closed against life. Very theatrical I’m sure, said Constance upon the entrance threshold, are you to waste away with the sad? Where is my Apple, spoke the Knight Owl, it is the only reason.ContinueContinue reading “The Gift of Christmas”
The Veil of Tears
Now we must turn our watching to another place. Then we will see that the Sphinx and Constance had also been blowing who knows where, on the winds of the winged ones made. High in the light airs, the Sphinx managed to take the tumbling Constance in her soft paws and onto the electric hoveringContinueContinue reading “The Veil of Tears”
Hair Power
The people of the legs without knees were become most furious because Sheba would not cover her hair. They swivelled about and about and came to make Sheba to cover her hair by force. When walking had a strange gait, all stilt and stiff. Vivainne took her sword made metal by itself and stood beforeContinueContinue reading “Hair Power”
Power to the People
Vivainne with Constance and the Queen Esme returned outside the Well Well Well and The Sphinx put the mountain back on it, a boom sound in the valleys.

She had distilled and extracted, separated, and fractioned, boiled and sieved, added and subtracted all the strange participant bits of theContinueContinue reading “Splitting the Mota”

The Hostel for the Homeless and The Rabbit
The Darkest Knight opened a Hostel for the Homeless under and by, quite close, next to, above and below, and soon the gates of the city of Az. Much that any wandering ancient or young, with nothing on their backs to call a shirt, might have a pallet to lie and a bit of aContinueContinue reading “The Hostel for the Homeless and The Rabbit”
The Ancestral Pile
When I was a young Darkest Child, my home, a chateau, seemed much undone by siege and siege engine.
