    In a glimmer, the corridor of Grayfall fell away, revealing the life force of centuries and lifetimes around him.  Instead of lockers and plaster walls, Cyndric found himself in an aisle of piled cairns and slate gray monoliths. The clothes on his back changed shape and substance, flannel and cotton to leather and linen and small metal studs.Now he saw that he stood at the end of the aisle.  Paving stones broke through moss and grass and earth.  A man stood to his left, garbed in a dark hooded cloak but wearing a warm smile for Cyndric.  Who was he? Why didn’t he speak? And what was the gol...mcoone door

It had been a long, tiring week and she’d looked forward to this rare but cherished opportunity for teatime with her grandmother.

    Sunrise of a Lifetime

    One day, the sun rose in the west and set in the east. “It was a momentous occasion. It was the very first sign of what would come.”“Keep going, Grandma!” You encourage. She manages a weak smile, and in a few minutes, continues;“And absolutely nobody noticed.” “What!?” Grandma grins.“I suppose i’m stretching the truth. Quite a lot of people noticed, but for the first few hours, nobody spoke up. See, the sun didn’t just decide to come back up the other way, it took a few days. First, they noticed the sun began to shift in it’s position that morning. NASA and other organizations were scrambling,...mcoone door
