Something bubbled in my stomach as I rose from my bedroll that morning.

Chapter 09: Enough Sparks For a Fire
I got rather a rude awakening this morning, during the night I felt a cold chill and I heard the sound of rain falling on the tent, which was calming, normally rain is always relaxing to me, but it was then I noticed bit by bit how inadequate the tent was. For starters it was… Continue reading Chapter 09: Enough Sparks For a Fire
Chapter 08: One Step at a Time
As far as hangovers are it was probably not the worst.

Gods these robes! Why was this what I was to wear, couldn’t they have given me something breezier or something? Ugh!

I bet it would be a significant fraction. Not even… Continue reading Chapter 02: Self Sodom
