Chapter Seven: Homecoming

I flew off, and as soon as I was far enough away from her, I let loose the scream of agony and anger I’d held in. I screamed down, toward the humans. “She thought I hated her! She’s scared to death of me. And what have I done other than show a gentleman’s restraint! It wasn’t disgust, or bloodlust in my eyes, it was desire for her! I was repulsed by my feelings, dammit, not by her! I remember hovering so close to her face, and coming to myself, and still feeling the compulsion to close the gap between us. But what if she’d drive me off for that? She definitely isn’t interested in me, at least not in t

Chapter Six: Confrontations

“Zetty.” I heard him. He sounded aggravated. “Zetty.” I opened my eyes, saw his face hovering over mine. “Get up. I made lunch.” “What about breakfast?” He turned away, still talking, and went back to the kitchen. “You’ve been asleep for three days. I don’t know what I expected, but…” “How long did you sleep?” I asked, getting up to follow him. “I fell out of bed the first morning, and have slept on the couch since then.” “You should have let me sleep on the couch.” I said. “It’s fine.” He said it flatly. It di

Chapter Five: Trat's Struggle

Lunch was ready. It was time to wake her up. She’d been asleep for nearly three days, after all. Must be nice. I assumed it was nice by how serene her face was. For a moment I just stood there, admiring her. I remembered that when she woke up, I would have to bury the tendency to stare at her for the sake of seeing her. I did it for centuries, even before I became what she called her Voice. Perhaps that’s why I haven’t woke her up yet. That means I would have to talk about what happened with the wings. I don’t know how exactly to approach that, what with how oblivious she is. Maybe that’s for the best, since she

Chapter Four: Ragors Kin

“That was really nice.” He said, “I hadn’t flown in… how long has it been? Seven centuries? It was more than that, right?” It hit me. I turned to face him. “Trat.” He looked at me with shock. “Trat. It meant ‘Stolen’ in the language of the dragons. I felt as if I’d stolen the egg from where it had belonged.” “You remembered.” He looked away. “Do you remember what you said after you made me immortal?” I laughed. “I said it was fitting. I had stolen your ancestor from his realm, and I was stealing you away from death.” He still wou

Chapter Three: Wings of the Ancient Ones

“If you don’t want me to go with you, I’ll stay here.” I said. He shook his head. “Just turn around.” I did, holding my breath. “And if I blank out up there?” I asked suddenly. “I won’t let you fall. You’ll be okay.” He said it. “Even if I fell, I’d be okay, I know… but…” “I said I won’t let you fall.” He repeated, sounding a bit aggravated. His arms went around my waist. “Just be glad you aren’t human at all, or else this would be uncomfortable.” I nodded. “Yeah.” But I felt strange. “

Chapter Two: Stretching His Wings

It didn’t take too long to find a place that was nice enough by his standards. I created enough money to be able to stay for a week if need be—sometimes when I slept, I wouldn’t wake up for days. “Nice. Well, if you need me, I’ll be in the shower.” I laughed at him under my breath. “Laugh all you want, but when you awake after a century-long nap, the first thing you do is shower, too.” I shrugged. “True enough.” “I might go for a flight later tonight.” I started to ask excitedly if I could join him, but then realized that he was my wings, so I was stranded here. &l

Chapter One: The Voice Within

There are the cryptic remarks that Voice leaves me, that lead me to wonder, just what happened in my past that I don’t remember. The night was full and young, and the air was brisk. I was sitting and staring out, thinking about those remarks. And then Voice began to prod at me with its raspy, wind-like vocals... “Maybe it’s time to let go?” Voice whispered. I sighed. “Listen, if it were that easy, I would have centuries ago.” “Perhaps you just forgot how to. I remember a time when you were happy.” “Enlighten me.” The whisper darkened, “You would have me break the chains th

My Bio

I am unsure what exactly to call myself. I do a bit of everything. I write, game, sing, sew, draw, read, collect swords and other various things, study Japanese culture and language, and, most recently, blog. My drawings are almost invariably my attempts to show other people what the characters from my stories look like in my head-- and because I am admittedly not that great, it doesn't really work out. However, since someone might find it interesting, I decided to upload my drawings and perhaps tidbits about the character depicted. I hope you enjoy, and please consider checking out my blog!

I'm Different Now.

0 min read

Life has changed a lot in the past three months. I left Vlad, stopped drawing, writing, and even singing. That changed, too. I have drawn a few things lately (might upload in the near future), written quite a bit with quite a good bit of inspiration... and I've been singing with much more emotion than ever before. I no longer live alone, and might be moving into a better place in the near future. After all, my one-bedroom apartment is a bit too small. My (new) boyfriend, Brahm, is living with me, and he has half custody of his 3-year-old daughter. Now, if any of you know me, the most obvious thing about me is that I am not too good with kids.

I Can Explain.

0 min read

The reason I have done practically nothing in approximately a month is because I have started working a second job. I have also completely and utterly halted Zetty's story in favor of another. I will eventually come back, because I have once or twice before. Technically, the one I've posted here is her fourth reincarnation. The story needs a lot of work anyway. Anyway, expect some concept art in the future. A friend and I are working on not just a story, but a TRPG based on the story. If you would like any more information, do tell me! When we flesh out the ideas and get them copyrighted, then I'll start putting a bunch of info out-- but in

A New Character is about to Emerge!

0 min read

I decided to go on and throw this out there, considering that his name will make readers stumble, a bit. The new guy's name is Xevir (pronunciation: Shev-EER) and goes by Xev. The only thing you'll really learn about him in the next chapter is that Zetty is very attracted to him, and that he can feel history from the emotions of a place, especially in places where blood has been shed. He also has the tendency to read people's pasts when he meets them, making introductions awkward and one-sided. And yes, when I finish the last version of Trat's picture, I will draw Xev. It is on my list. If you have any questions, do ask them here: http://ze
