[Anat] Perfection
Then
“Like this,” he said demonstrating the placement of the feet and the width of the legs apart with his own.
Anat sighed and shifted her weight doing her best to imitate the stance. It was unfamiliar, and she felt silly wearing the garments of a man. She didn’t yet understand how the movement was meant to ground her, creating a strong sense of ( Read more... ) -
Concepting - Becky Marshall
So I've been tossing around several concepts in my brain. One was a swamp witch, another was a strange native american like thing. Finally I fleshed out an Old West concept after reading the Bodhistocracy section in the Carthian book.
Think...Grammaton Cleric meets the Operative (Serenity). She's sort of full of herself, thinking she is one of ( Read more... ) -
The Mind of a Goddess
I am ancient. I am second only to Mother, who is as old as the stars. I am eternal. My youth is ever-lasting, sustained by the worship of my followers…their blood offered in sign of their devotion. There was a time when I did not have to remain hidden away. Temples were built in my honour, their steps stained red with sacrifice ( Read more... ) -
[Requiem - Katherine] Anabel Lee
I have spilled the blood of hundreds of innocents, fallen to the darkest parts of myself and returned and yet I am faced with a challenge that confuses and compels me. I have suffered countless moments of flattery with the grace allowed me by the ages, but when she speaks I can feel the blush that would rise to my cheeks were I still living.

Blood for Blood
So I ran faster
But it caught me here
Yes my loyalties turned…

A Bloody Memory
"Wren?"
Katherine's voice sounded so young in her mind, especially then. She had been so naive. She was strong-willed and quite independent for her time, but that didn't change how much she didn't realize what she was getting into when she made the choice to become a creature of the night.
"Wren?" she called again.
It was so unlike him. He was ( Read more... ) -

Whisperings
They weren't even rumors, those quiet snatches of conversation that caught Katherine's well-trained ear. It was a name that meant nothing to those who spoke it, but it meant everything to her. Fear made every bone in her body hum...if his killer was still out there... She sighed. If she had the chance of finding them then she would take it no ( Read more... ) -
Sad news
The grapevine of news didn't take long to reach Katherine's ear. Connor dead? She had just met him a couple of months ago...and the time that had passed seemed even shorter. True she hadn't known him well but it made her sad that the friendship that could have formed between them would never get the chance to do so. The loss didn't cut her as ( Read more... ) -
June 9th
Here's to the first post and its a long one. Some events of the weekend were cut out and/or shortened. This is due to length and the fact that it is told from Katherine's view point so if they are not significant to her then they are not in the retelling (really though it has to do with length.)
Abigail’s Plantation
Abigail was with ( Read more... )
