    I’m like one of those video games where your gun never runs out of ammo. It’s 5:45 a.m. but I’ve only been writing for seven hours. I will finish this story today. I do not yet see the end, but I can’t really do much more of this. This much ugly and this much evil…

    MSU was beginning to put together a Folklore class when I was there, but I was fighting Guardian’s War and I never got to take it. This is my attempt. See, folklore as I know, it is an oral tradition. A tradition where the Storyteller can move and shift the story as they want. It’s…

    It was Christmas. Uncle Wrath was not at Grandpa’s that night, or he had already thundered into the streets. Uncle Ball was my godfather now, and I had saved my money to buy him a special gift. Dinner was eaten and the doorbell rang. We were all sitting in the second living room and the…

    Grandpa needs a name now. He has needed one for a long time, but I have been hesitant to give him one. The man confuses me. I knew and know him as two people. Stories told to me, images locked in my mind. As I look down at the compass I use to try to…
