The Owlhead Trials

Chapter 1: The Head in the Hills Chapter 1: The Head in the Hills They arrived at dusk. Not because they planned to—but because dusk is when cursed things like to begin, and Bastards rarely show up early. The wind whistled low through the Vale of Stilled Breaths, carrying with it the smell of […]

Spores are spreading faster than any known plague, and worse—something ancient is growing beneath the bloom.

Clams Before Storms
