“All’s I’m saying, is I’m sick of it.” Gaia sashayed to the drinks counter, pouring herself a glass of sparkling water. “I mean look at this,” she indicated the glass. “Water is perfect, the most perfect thing in the universe, why does it need to have bubbles in it?”  She took a sip, spluttering before spitting it back into the glass, her ...

The grey morning light filtered through the cloud cover, waking up the world with the sound of car horns blaring in the congested streets far below. The alarm blared to life, splitting the silence in two. Grunting, I pawed at the bedside table, searching blindly for the annoyance. As soon as my fingers curled around the device, I threw it across the room, snuggling back into the warm duvet.

The crushing feeling in my chest only intensified as I looked into her brilliant green eyes. Her lashes down caste; slowly fluttering with the movement of her slow blinks. “I was just trying to be what you wanted.” I pleaded with her to understand. To look into my heart and see the purity of my intentions. The room was cold and dark, only the pale light from the outside illuminated the disarray. A...

The government, both Human and Fae, reached an accord. In exchange for knowledge and turning the tide on climate change, the Fae would be granted inclusion into our world.

“The beings, now known as the Fae, came through the rift only a month ago. Since then, we have learned that the rift was caused by pollution that had spread between our worlds, causing the aether, a veil that once separated our realms, to degrade. This degradation reached a point where it collapsed and forced our two worlds to become one.

Now joining me in the studio, our special guest. Her Roya...

“Chris! Chris, where are you? Chris!” The shouting woke me from my dreams, blue eyes in the mist. The image sticks with me as my eyes open to the bright violet sky. The fresh breeze, full and heavy with the scent of apples. Yawning, I stretch out the kinks of sleep. “Chris! Where are you?” Something was happening. It took a moment for me to remember everything. The vision, the lights, the plants. ...

Things happened fast over the next week, it started off slow, with the cracks in reality appearing and disappearing, the weather hot and humid. Then strangeness took over. Plants started to glow at night with bioluminescence, daisies turning blue, glowing softly in the light of the moon. Mushrooms grew out of the grasses, as tall as trees. Their caps opening in the rain. Strange vines and plants a...

My grandmother’s reaction to my vision, cemented it’s validity in my head, my stomach churned with anxiety. She said to meet at the Manor House, she had inherited the house, and me, from my parents after the accident. The house sits on a large parcel of land, backed by the Cairngorms national park. A beautiful backdrop to my tragedy; I wasn’t looking forward to going back there, but I had to yield...

“Um..yeah. Can’t help but feel like a storms com...
