You feel for the knife block on the counter to your left, closing your fingers around a thick handle and pulling. How much can the Canny see? You jolt just slightly when the weight of the cleaver settles to the end of your arm.

In a split second, you have thrown yourself over the counter

1:1101 Turn Left by ouroboros666

You turn left, the ice in your bones keeping you steady and numbing your feet enough that you can walk. You let the knowing muscles bunch in your thighs and calves, carrying you from shadow to shade as if you were a dancer in another life. But dancers have the luck of the devil, and perhaps a dancer

6:154 Lost among the clouds by Arbon

Where was it? He couldn’t see the road anymore, it was just trees and grass and clouds all around. His head swiveling back and forth while his movement was smooth and strait. In theory it was just a matter of gliding forward until he spotted something, but looking far ahead in the dir

1:1100 Turn Right by ouroboros666

You turn right and limp down the corridor, on two feet at first but then on four, giving the beast its head as the human turns in on itself and shudders. Your man’s nature recoils as you pull yourself forward on your bleeding elbows and knees, head low as if you beg an omnipresent spirit to heal y

1:1099 Stay patient- bide your time by ouroboros666

You wait in silence, counting out the minutes in a long and fleeing stream of consciousness. Every so often, you rotate your wrists just a little, enough to stop the silver burning through to the bone. But you are acting entirely on motor memory. You see no reason to fight it. Maybe everyone is born

1:1098 In a dungeon by ouroboros666

You feel yourself plucked from your story - plotlines tugging then tearing- as a narrator’s fist uproots you, planting your wet soul in another’s timeline. You have history here- and then, gone…

You wake in pain. You are not screaming, because it is not the type of pain which will

6:153 Leave him be by Arbon

He wanted to say something. The sphinx opens her mouth as if about to answer, eyes darting between the man and his car along the roadside. Daniel decides to offer a simple nod lest he risk his words twisting into riddles and confusing the matter further. The human-shaped lips sealed tight and his e

6:152 Try to convince him by Arbon

Daniel could tell his mind was addled by something, his lips betrayed him and he did not have the sense of fear or urgency he might have otherwise portrayed. At any other time he knew he would be dropping the car and clawing at his hair, cursing or shouting or something to get his voice

1:1097 A ghost in the machine by catprog

You looks around and suddenly feel a presence behind you. You turn around and see a ghost.

"Finally someone is able to see me, I have been trapped here for who knows how long. " it says

"Are you a player like me?" you ask.

"Yeah. The guild

1:1086 Agree by SketchySeraph

You nod eagerly, feathers swaying with the motion. "I think I'd like that... Plus I guess I can't always use the training wheels, can I?" You chuckle, spreading you wings. "I know how to do this much, but the rest is kind of..."

"I get it." Talon n

1:1085 Let nature work its course by SketchySeraph

You walk towards the bear, a little uneasy by the sight of the raw, dead animal before you. Your nerves are tempered slightly by your gryphon side; thankfully. That hald of you is ravenous, seeing the bear in the same light you would have viewed an all-you-can-eat buffet in an past life.

1:1096 Check out the menus by catprog

You bring up the menu hoping to find some way of contacting someone to let them out.

The first thing you notice however is the in game clock. It has stopped. Well slow, you correct yourself as after a few seconds the mili-seconds have increased by one.

So does this mean this

1:1084 You Like It by SketchySeraph

You nod eagerly, cooing quietly. Quill sounds nice; it sounds more than nice! It almost rolls off the tongue, speaking to both a feminine side and a masculine one alike!

"I think I won't mind being called that, not in the slightest." You say at length, deciding that you ra

1:1095 Your room by catprog

You find yourself shuffled down a hallway, until you stop in front of a door.

"I think this one might be the best for you. Or more specifically you may be the best for this room. "

He opens the door and you find yourself on a balcony. The land is a couple of stories

1:1083 Let Him Decide by SketchySeraph

Well, it probably wouldn't be the worst idea you've had today to let Talon pick a name for you. Given how well that encounter with the genie paid off, you should probably consider letting someone else make a monumental life choice for you.

"I like that. I like it a lot.&qu

1:1094 Meeting the rest of the group by catprog

"Anyway" he says "I think it is now time for you to meet the rest of the guild"

He fumbles on the wall before opening a door. "The secret doors allow access to any part of the course. However they are really hard to find if you do not know the trick"

1:1082 Shock by SketchySeraph

"What the hell are you doing!" You screech, averting your gaze. Even though you can't see it, you can still hear the wet crunching of beak on meat; of bones breaking as the male continues to sate his appetite.

"Stress eating." He says, the words a little muffled

1:1093 Try the course by catprog

"Anyway" he says "I think we need to see how you go on our course."

He opens a trapdoor. Down the stairs is where it is.

You head down and the door shuts immediately.

Despite the lack of light your eyes seem well suited for the low light.

1:1081 Tell the truth by SketchySeraph

Eventually, you decide that the best thing to do here is to be as honest and clear as possible. You tell him about the genie, and about how you insulted him a few more times than you should. You tell him about how you used to be a man; how you used to be human; how you don't want to live like t

1:1092 Admit you know not a lot by catprog

You frown. "I don't know a lot. It seems like their are waves of heroes though"

He nods "Yeah. The guild does not know much info. I think that you are the first quadruped player. "

"What does that mean?" you ask.

"It means t
