Murmur Stories

A poetry collection. All by me. More light hearted poems than in my love poetry collection. As the title says, pretty random.

Interviews with the Sons of Sariel characters.

Elara Vance, a disillusioned art restorer, retreats to her isolated hometown of Blackwood Creek only to discover the source of its oppressive gloom: a parasitic entity called The Murmur. This psychic darkness feeds on human despair and has been secretly cultivated for a century by the town's founding families, the Descendants, who use it as a tool for political and financial control. The nightmare becomes agonizingly personal when Elara realizes her closest friend, Liam O'Connell, has been indoctrinated and made the Murmur's primary vessel. Partnering with the cynical Detective Marcus, Elara dives into hidden historical archives, learning that the Descendants weren't worshipping a god, but attempting to control a weapon through ritual sacrifices and maintained social depression. In a desperate, final confrontation, Elara and Marcus race against the remaining corrupt officials to banish the Murmur before it can anchor itself in a new, devastating public ritual. Using her knowledge of chemistry and restoration, and catalyzed by the sacrifice of their historian ally, Elara confronts the entity and neutralizes the Warden's Lantern, the Murmur's original summoning relic, severing its link to the town. With the Descendants exposed and jailed, Blackwood Creek begins its long, painful healing process. Elara finds peace and prepares to leave, but as she drives away, she discovers a faint, cold mark of the Murmur's symbol etched onto her collarbone. She hears the entity's low, internal hum-dormant, but tethered directly to her spirit. Elara has become the darkness's reluctant new Conduit, carrying the silent promise of its return beyond the borders of Blackwood Creek.

How can we find good qualities in ourselves when all we ever seem to find are the bad things. What we want? What we need? Is for someone else to say they like us, care for us and accepts us for who we are. It kinda makes you wanna gag a little when someone says to kind the good qualities in yourself when everyone around you seems to laugh about you a little, pick on you, murmur mean things under their breath. This story is about a guy called Haru Takumi who has a tragic backstory and a brother(Misao Takumi), who is out for his blood, caused him misery. Up till now He decided not to get close to anyone thinking his brother would hurt people who are close to him. He then meets a girl called Misaki Okimura who changes his mind about how he sees the world. Let the story begin...

the lull of languid dreams flickering like fireflies

Short murmurs, poems, unsent emails, unspoken words. All chapters are independent.
