A Collection of (really) Short Stories I Wrote A Couple of Years Ago. The lengths of stories vary, as do their coherency.

This story I could best describe as a stream of consciousness. It was originally written because I got bored writing a report and had some time to kill. It's absurd, weird, somewhat post modern and I love it. Please enjoy 1980, a story that just sort of appeared and doesn't mean anything.

Dive into a world of surreal madness and nightmares as the protagonist navigates the dangerous and alluring realm of the shadows. With a style reminiscent of William S. Burroughs and Aldous Huxley, this piece takes you on a psychedelic journey through the mind, blurring the lines between reality and delusion. Experience the beauty and chaos of a world where language is poetic and the impossible is painted with the strokes of a madman's brush. This is a story that will leave you breathless, questioning the nature of reality and the power of the shadows

It's been 205 years since the Day of the Crimson Sky, and the heat of summer is just beginning to burn in the Southern Realms. Crossing back into his home country from a diplomatic mission, is Bhent, the Dictator's Representative. He is now to return to the capital of Dawnton to report on the mission, not knowing of the conspiracy growing around him. This is the first chapter in the second draft of my current WIP. Depending on reactions I'll post continuous chapters in a sort of series. I would love feedback about how this is as an opening chapter.
