The Blue Knight and the Wineskin Mountain

They asked the Blue Knight to Solve the Problem of the Used Wineskin Mountain. Wineskins on the floor, wineskins in the trees, wineskins everywhere, a plague of wineskins, a plethora of wineskins. Make them into something, he thought, hats? no, baby clothes? No, houses? impossible. Then the Blue Knight went to the street to seeContinueContinue reading “The Blue Knight and the Wineskin Mountain”

To Az and Aznot

The City of Az, great in stature and green in inclination, building not so high but of proportion well designed. The people and creatures there minding the energies that came out the great wind engines above the rooves. The waters come to the city brought and held with respect and care such that those leavingContinueContinue reading “To Az and Aznot”

The Not Brave Robin

There came in sight upon the track way a battle most fierce. A bird no larger than the fist of a young child was set upon by a wolf the size of a house, its fur, all rough and foul, with drool falling from its fangs, each the length of a knife. All the timeContinueContinue reading “The Not Brave Robin”

Thin Ice

The Ice, a lake or wide river could not be counted, a sea of ice all covered to the sides. Ice made hard, wherein all manner of creatures made their homes. In it, on it and under it. Ice for all the time of memory, hard and true, now in this time of broken airs,ContinueContinue reading “Thin Ice”

The Not Clever Fox

Now, together through the wall, through the smoky dark, now the air, relief and commitment. Many distances to cover before they might come to the city, the City of Az, the Greener City. First appeared but an orchard, albeit an orchard as wide as the seas. The trees, lines of trees with boughs of fruitContinueContinue reading “The Not Clever Fox”

The Shadow Wall

The shadow that deceives watches. Some journey, dust, sound, they went, they traveled, it was not hot, it rained. They were together and yet in the rain fell shadows not is with the shining armour to rust, to decay, to stifle. There is a darkness that watches, a mind that sees. The darkness cloaks uponContinueContinue reading “The Shadow Wall”

The Three Gauntlets

No more dreams, no more visions, the Blue Knight sought travel to the castle that was the stronghold of the Guardians of the Cave there whence Vivainne Desegur and her beloved Constance kept their vigil for the world. He came that he might shew to them in speech that Shining City which he had seenContinueContinue reading “The Three Gauntlets”

The Quest of the Quiet Knight – The Dark Figure

The Blue Knight was tired of sleep and unwilling to dream. He tended to his horse, Prosek, and made him to saddle. He vowed to move on from this stone circle of visions and to act he knew not what. When it came, the dream was of a different kind. A vision more of feelingContinueContinue reading “The Quest of the Quiet Knight – The Dark Figure”

The Quest of the Quiet Knight – The Greener Man

Not asleep, asleep. Not dreaming, dreaming. The Blue Knight entered his dreaming ill at ease. A man, the colour of a man. Sensing that all control was lost, neither sword nor spear in his hand. He was not the master of this place. Seeing a city on the hill, smoke rising into choking air, foulContinueContinue reading “The Quest of the Quiet Knight – The Greener Man”

The Quest of the Quiet Knight – New Growth

Sleep, stones, figures, figure, tree, horse, dreams. His vision, a deserted place that was a plain, no life to be found, a broken place where no life could be found. A barren place where no life could be found. There was not anyone, not any plant nor animal, not dead but empty and void, notContinueContinue reading “The Quest of the Quiet Knight – New Growth”
