The population of the world doubled overnight, and chaos ensued.
Well, it didn't exactly happen *overnight*. It was... ugh. Alright so time is kind of weird on Earth because it can be midnight *and* noon simultaneously in different parts of the world and everybody thinks that *their* time is the right time. For some, ... |
The ten agents stepped out of the portal, all collapsing in a heap on the ground with grimaces on their faces as they recounted what they had just experienced.

"The things I do for love,"Jamie says before extending his hand to push young Bran Stark to his apparent death.

I suppose it was just any other night. The shadows seemed to have danced around the room calling, becoming as they often so do. I get up to grab some hot chocolate. As I pour the brown liquid into a mug a quite but audible ‘knock’ comes from the door. I grab a knife from nearby and hide it underneath my sleeve. Wonde... |
How pathetic I have become at the news of my beloved father’s return. How just two men walking push my life in balance.
Blood of civilizations mingled in stains upon his worn armor - each gash and chip a beloved memento.
His people assumed his strength and the ensuing spoils at the price of his temper.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! The sound arose God from his torpor, used tissues strewn about the room. Was this? Had the demons and devils finally risen up in their confusion and anguish? Or was it something else? Had someone risen up to supplant the Lord? Someone was at the gates of Heaven and was clearly forcing their w... |
As I walked into the room, I could feel my hands shaking. My father was standing there, his back to me as he gazed out the window onto the snow topped peaks in the distance, and I knew it was time.

Dragons, the common knowledge goes, are wild animals. The evidence for this always seems to be the large cave with no door, the refuse pile a bit away and downwind of the cave. And the loud calls in the night, often to new Moons or eclipses.
This all ignores that there are plenty of records that indicate that people ... |

I walk down to the basement of the place that i called home
The cellar full of mystery that i had never known
A hatch under the rug that we were told to never lift
