Secrets in the Palace

The setting sun cast a final glow into the Main Hall of the castle, illuminating the inside with a blinding orange. The gold-laced tables and chairs made the light ten times more striking. The tables held freshly-carved ham, minced meat pies, candied oranges and lemons, and cakes of all shapes and colors. And then, there was the wine. Dark red liquid poured into silver and gold cups and down the throats of a hundred guests. Women swayed their maroon, evergreen, and marigold dresses as the band played on. Men accompanied them in matching suit...

A Night of Wine, Stories, and Laughter

This story contains mentions of alcohol consumption and swearing. I did not expect a lot of things at my mother's wedding. I did not expect the crowd to cheer when the couple kissed in an unexpected Sunday rain. I did not expect there to be six to eight tour buses ready to take the guests to the fanciest hotel I had ever seen(although that one made more sense as time went on, sense the groom was literally a katrillionare). I did not expect to now be standing in a gold-and-ivory-plated lobby next to a table lined with cookies, chocolates, a...

Submitted to Contest #160

I opened my eyes. fresh streams were left on my face after the beautiful service. The space around me was glowing now, for we were all connected and singing in beautiful harmony.

The Incident on 30577-Khonsu

I could tell the day was off as soon as I exited out of the Farogien tube. The soil beneath me was still soft, yet coarse, and still held its recognizable mauve shade darkened by the shadow of the second sun. The air was still heavy and murky, as it was that time of day where the twin moons Deros and Certos had crossed paths in their orbits. Still, something was off. Something that makes you stop in your tracks and pulls you out of the mundane chores you were previously doing and questions you on the meaning of life, the true purpose of ...

The Brothers Gruff

This story contains violence, crude language, and mentions of mental health. Read at your own risk. "Hey Grey! Wait up!" Mark called as his younger brother nearly skidded into the road in front of their house. Mark himself had stayed behind trying to help their younger sibling, Ben, into his shoes. Grey called after him. "Well hurry up, you clowns!" Grey had already made it down the sidewalk and was just about to turn the corner. Mark debated whether he should flip his brother off before quickly deciding against it. It would be better if Mom...
