""I'm scared. I feel restless. Never felt like this in a long time. I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm sure that it's an omen. I'm really scared and I feel like staying up all night. I don't even know which of the feelings to choose. Whether to stay up all night or just go out with our baby."
A woman said. She was sitting opposite a man. The room was fairly illuminated. There was a lantern sitting on the top of what was close to a cupboard.
He looked at her. He seemed fed up with her complaints and couldn't possibly stand it,
"You know that's a crazy thought right? Going into the dark with our only 6 month old baby. Quit that thought please before you get on my nerves."
He said, picking a chop of the cooked meat in the bowl. The fat lump seemed too big for his jaws, so he tried as much as possible to crunch it. At least the best way he could.

IMP To the palace
"Who unleashed a dog?" The only chief seated with the king said. The noise kept coming till a woman broke into the palace. The guards tried to restrain her in vain. The energy behind the cry seemed to had fueled her veins. She was so energetic. At last, one of the guards was able to hold her down but the king called for her freedom. No sooner the guard let her go than she scrambled to the front of the king and almost threw herself on the king. One of the attendants held unto her again and pulled her to the feet of the throne. "What's this drama, woman?" The King finally asked, but the woman seemed to had swam in the ocean of her tears. There were scars on her face but on the right cheek, there was a gore. "And what's all these all over your face?" The King sa
IMP In Good terms
A thick forest. "Why don't we all return to the village. Eventually we would all die by the claws of that ugly thing. Believe me." Lude was the first to speak. He was seating all by himself. Hira was seated beside Iva, resting her head on his shoulder. They were all in the cave. Twas quite close to the eventide and in no time, the continuous cawing of the mofo Ravens would start and crazy ominous sounds would take their shifts too. Lude was done with being in that forest. He had made up his mind to leave in no time if the fucking lovers wouldn't use their heads. "That's quite illogical of you to say. Eventually we will all die by the claws of that ugly thing. Aren't you willing to fight?" Iva challenged. Lude scoffed. He didn't know that he could really get along with Iva. He had thought that the fellow was a dickhead bu
IMP Prologue
"Urghhh" His heart was in his mouth. He wanted to allow the breath a space. He had been running and needed to rest. He wasn't sure if that was the best time for him to nurse that feeling. The numbers of trees there were beyond expectations. He hadn't thought he was going to see anything close to those. The trees were scattered in spree across the forest and he couldn't awe their undaunted stance. His heart wasn't his anymore. His hoofs were sticky and his chest heavy. There was a rhythmic jive which his reasoning had supplanted. His rage could not sway to it. He looked. There was nothing in sight. The view was clear and dainty dusk was dragging by. He looked up. He saw mists in groups and felt like elevating to touch the recently growing-moody sky. He remembered. That was not the time for the thought. He took f

"Eliat make pawn of you too." He looked closely. They were two. He needed to be sure. He didn't know why they reduced. Was that some new level of prank? He couldn't be sure. He needed to affirm. He was done hiding behind the tree. He needed to face whatever time would toss at him. Whether or not he had done anything outta his bound back in Eliat, in the underworld, he didn't care. Twasnt some big things to be puked. He wouldn't be the first and neither would he be the last. He wouldn't make he seem as though he was the worst thing in the context of being. He dumped the thought, else he would be jilted by pain. He did what was considered grievous, but of course he would point tons of leaders and others who had done what was worst than his. He had read about some. He had met some in his guts. While he still plied the route of the abyss, he would make confetti of his curiosity. He was used to it. But t

"Oria blah blah..." He looked. The day was just dawning. He was on a tree. At least, the branch of a tree. His eyes met with the rustic rays of the apt azure. He was conscious of what effect they would have on him. A part of him feared or did dread their ferociousness. From his part of the world, where he had came, there wasn't much of the ray there. They could simply savor the aroma. Like a figment of its projection. That was all they were opened to. That was all they could make of its pleasantries. But on the tree, twas quite different. His head was heaving a sigh. A salient sigh. He could maneuver those. He could handle those. He had been handling things greater than those. He felt a pang reaching for the tip of his consciousness. He needed time to figure out what to do. Of course twas not farfetched. Twas something he could easily come by. Shouldn't be a mill around his neck of course. He cons
IMP Eeta
"Huh?" He drew closer to the spot but couldn't find anything. He firstly thought that his ears had jilted him by feeding him with the wrong spoon of ideas, but he wasn't sure whether or not he was the one jilting the ears. He looked from one end to the other. His hoofy legs which were bound to transformation had sundry sways on the earth. Leaves crunched under the humane leg as though twas a hoof. The claws reaching from the toes were few inches long. He wished they were longer than that. If they were, twould aid him in hunting, and of course that was of great consequence. His eyes were widened as he looked. He wasn't sure what he was seeing. His instinct probably was telling lies to him. If it was, there was pretty nothing he could do about it. He was merely and obviously a pawn. That was all he was. He wasn't more than that. He looked up at the sky again as though he was looking for what he had heard it

. "Uhhh?" Those were the syllabic sanity he could sweep into a whole. He couldn't had done more than that. His eyes widened at what he saw. Many thoughts were fighting a stance. He probably might lose it. He kept his patience drooling as he allowed his instinct to savor whatever it was that taunted time was leasing. He couldn't afford reeling in gaunt guts. He couldn't afford making strays of wits. He couldn't allow pain to pore his rage. He wouldn't allow fear to mock his pride. Why would he. He had no idea what the creature was and what it wanted. How then would he be so dramatic and belatedly dismissive. He was damn sure that many a tales had been told to him about sundry creatures living on the upper land. They did have less of that in his own world. What they did have were monsters. Creatures with awkward shapes and forms. A creature with a thin body complemented by a super big head. Or one with a larg

"Why'd you do that, Moe?" His thoughts were as though they were augured by a prophet. He let his rage sink into the abyss of his consciousness. He wanted to make apt meaning of what was happening at that moment. He couldn't be sure what he had heard or seen. His patience was being pored by curiosity and that should never be a mill around his neck. His wills were whooshing as his veil was unveiled. His marks trailed tracks on the consciousness of his being. He was just as heavy as the weightiest mountain ever grown. His pain would subside but he needed his rage to be soothed. He had no idea what pain he was referring to. He hadn't thought he was in any pain. He wasn't savoring any gaunt gores. Except from the claws of the annoying but comely creature he had met few hours ago. He tried concentrating and making meaning of quite the numbers of ambiguous things before him. He mated with rage and s
