  • Jarrod's Journey

    As the sun rose over the mountain range to the east, it did little to warm the air. As he was known to his parents and sisters, Jarrod the Brave, tried to keep warm by holding his wings close to his body. He was the only one awake, and for once, it was quiet in the nest.His mind was still racing with the words of his parents the night before. Today, it would all come to light, but Jarrod hadn't slept well, despite knowing the day would be of great importance.When he and his sister were born in the spring, they all lived happily in the forest. Their nest was in the tallest tree on the highest p...9spone door

    The Lunar Marketplace

    Ryder strides across the stone, gray ground of the Lunar Marketplace. “An open air market on the moon”, he muses, “who’d a thunk?“ The settlement on Mars has been sending expeditions to the moon for about 5 years now, but this is Ryder’s first time seeing it in person! His brother, Phoenix, has told him stories of it, but the vastness and selection of goods could never be put into adequate words. Phoenix hwww.onedoor.ccad teased him before he left, something about meeting a “nice alien girl”. He responded with his signature eye roll and a reminder that he’ll be there to collect supplies, not to meet the loc...9spone door
