It is here that two of these forms of life come into conflict, the flat-headed crocodile relative Stomatosuchus and the giant, sail backed Spinosaurus. Witness how the clash of these two females decided the fate of a single nest, the unknown contents of which is only minutes away from hatching.

𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒 𝐃𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐈𝐍 𝐌𝐎𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐒❜ 𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐎𝐖 The headline is plastered all over the Fayette Tribune, accompanied by a picture of the gravel lane lined with body bags. The article is vague, and fits entirely on the first page of the newspaper. The cause of death for all thirty-one inhabitants is unknown, their names have not yet been released, and an investigation is ongoing: that is all there is to say. Tyler Rhoades grew up in Meadow Bridge, close to Moonshiners' Hollow, but he escaped the small town at age eighteen and has since drifted from city to city in a desperate attempt to find himself. After an accident at his most recent job as a deckhand aboard a barge, Tyler's drifting life is uprooted as he is forced to head back to his hometown in the deepest recesses of West Virginia and into the shifting darkness of something terrible. + Updates every last Friday of the month! // actually, HIATUS because school.
