Last Wars 20He had hid his wide brim hat outside for this job, as it clashed with his stolen uniform.Last Wars 20
He was a reporter and a soldier, a thinker and a dropout, an aristocrat and a pauper. He was none of these things. His mind was malleable, like liquid glass. He was more self aware than any other person he had ever encountered. He knew every one of his selves and could control them all.
His mind was not fractured for he had sculpted each person from his own imagination. There was Kal Matters the charming reporter, Twillson the helpful common-man, Kanzen the noble ambassador, even Gorn, a service technician

Last Wars 19To the south of Sarrond, just inland from the coast, a palatial estate was built on the outskirts of the city suburbs. It was built like the rest of Sarrond, with no regard for economy of space and with an eye towards the aesthetic. Its tastefully ostentatious buildings were never found to be more than three stories high, and were interspersed with reflecting pools and gardens. Built in an ancient style, the entire place was built to provide a sense of calm, which was something that was becoming more expensive on this war torn world.Last Wars 19
In the heart of the estate was the main house, a sprawling mansion built on a hill that rose abov

It is What It IsThis is of course a story for children so it may be hard for adults to follow. It's best if they don't listen as they read it to the children. Can you believe it children; Adults sometimes think things mean other things?It is What It Is
Where was I? Oh yes.

Clock World"You see my boy the world is…"Clock World
He paused. I had come a long way to this old house in the middle of nowhere to hear the hermits wisdom.
"The world is a big clock full of ants."
Another pause, this one filled with a different kind of tension
"What?"
"A clock full of ants. We are the ants, obviously. We move around inside a gigantic mechanism, partially maintained by other ants, and we try not to get crushed by the cogs. Forever rolling new cogs into place. Many toil forever in this lightless obscurity. Until they are crushed in their own constructions"

The Crimson killer On the pier she stood; the bleak landscape lay out before her. A breeze blew wisps of her hair. The salty air flourished in her nostrils and sent a slight chill down her spine.The Crimson killer

A Tall Glass of TimeMy brother sat across from me, his eyes following the tip of my pencil as I scribbled in the margin of my math homework. "The sands of time are a lie," he said. "What?" He pointed at the picture I had drawn-an hourglass. "That sand. When has time ever passed in neat little grains like that? There's space between those grains. Not like time at all." "Well, can you do better?" I asked. "Water," he said. "Time is water. There's no space to stop. It's transparent, destructive..." "I guess that's true." "So much of it gets wasted.
