Have you ever noticed things lurking in the shadows in the corner of your eyes? Heard a creak or felt a breeze run over you in a dimly lit place? When these things happen, do you brush them off, expecting it just to be your mind playing tricks? 

Well next time you hear or see these things. Be careful of what you do, as it may not only be your mind playing tricks, but something playing the tricks. 

Shadow creatures are always living beside you. Let's just hope it's the merciful one. As I hope and pray you never ever have to encounter the third species of the Shadow World. As the Shadow Keepers can only do so much. 

But what happens when one of the Keepers encounters one of these seemingly beautiful creatures,  and what happens when this creature is the King to be of the Shadow World and is trying to persuade the Keeper to join him in his Shadow World. Even though the Keeper is as stubborn as hell what happens when he seems to be winning?

It is the autumn equinox, or the death day, the time to contact those that have gone before. Everyone closes their eyes and are silent to commune with the spirits. I had never tried to contact spirits before. But this year I seek my mother. She died this day, fourteen years ago; my birthday. My position in the ceremony is shadow maker. This is a role that I have played since I was old enough to carry the marker staff. It is a rod the length of my forearm tapered at the lower end and holding a clear stone at the top. I hold it high in the air waiting. It catches the light, and its shadow forms an eye directly in the middle of the equinox stones. Spirits surround me. They stop and nod, or at least make eye contact before moving on. "Mother?" She could be an older version of myself. She smiles at me, then, fades as an old presence joins me. This spirit isn't just old; it's ancient. It exudes wisdom and understanding, peace and culture. We celebrate, together, to the music of creation. I seem to know the dance but not as well as she. We are alone only briefly before being joined by another. They dance as if they know each other's every move. I try to keep up. When I falter, they smile, laugh and show me how. There is no passage of time. We dance together for an instant and forever. I shouldn't, but I open my eyes. My shadow, marking the equinox, isn't a shadow, it is a shimmering swirl of blended light. The stone in the top of my staff is flicking with a brilliant white accented by scintillating bands of many colours. I quickly close my eyes but the ancients are gone. We all open our eyes. My shadow falls through the standing stones as it should. And it is black, also, as it should be. They had danced with me.

Talia had always lived in a world of fantasy, a dreamer lost in the stories her father once told her. He spun tales of enchanted kingdoms, fearless heroes, and magical lands that existed beyond the stars. To her, those stories were more than just bedtime tales-they were a part of her, a place where she belonged. But when her father mysteriously vanished, reality came crashing down. The magic faded, leaving behind only an aching emptiness. Years passed, and Talia buried herself in the last relic of her father's world-his old book, filled with the same stories he used to tell. She clung to it like a lifeline, believing it was the key to preserving his memory. But one night, something changed. The words on the pages twisted, the ink bled, and before she could react, she was no longer in her bedroom. She was inside the book. Trapped in a kingdom once vibrant but now shrouded in darkness, Talia discovers that the fairytale world her father created is no longer the one she remembers. A curse has twisted its fate, and at the heart of it all lies the shadowy ruler, Soldark-a tyrant with an eerie connection to her past. Now, Talia must navigate this world of elves, mermaids, and sinister creatures, unaware that the very book she treasures is both the key to saving the land... and the chain binding its ruler. Will she fight to preserve the story she once loved, or will she dare to destroy it to uncover the truth?

In "The Worst Fairytale," I, Rue, dive headfirst into an adventure that twists the classic fairytale into something dark, thrilling, and utterly enchanting. Tasked with rescuing my grandmother, I find myself in a world filled with deceitful and magical creatures, including the tiny, troublesome fae and their captivating king.
