#FiveSentenceFiction: Wishes

June 14, 2014 / Sisyphus47 / 2 Comments

She was their benefactor, their protection, the One, fearless, who could keep the Enemy at bay. When She disappeared, they held vigils, sacrificed a calf to the Goddess, prayed for Her return. All their wishes were for Her to be back in their midst, honoured and more than a little feared; their planet completed a revolution around … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction: Wishes

#DailyPost: Binding Judgement

June 9, 2014 / Sisyphus47 / Leave a comment

Does it ever make sense to judge a book by its cover? It was old and dusty, and must have been hidden in the ancient trunk for centuries. For a while she contemplated the cover, cracked leather worn by the passing years, touched by the hands of long dead knights. Around her was silence and the … Continue reading #DailyPost: Binding Judgement

#FiveSentenceFiction: Doors

May 12, 2014May 12, 2014 / Sisyphus47 / 2 Comments

On the threshold, in front of the massive gate, she hesitated: the fort would be booby-trapped, perhaps even ready to crumble on top of any intruder. But then she remembered what the prisoner had said to them: it was only the third door which was trapped, after that, no-one knew other than the enemy. She pushed the … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction: Doors

#FiveSentenceFiction – Ruins

March 22, 2014 / Sisyphus47 / 9 Comments

 She stood, very still, in the shadow of the ruined tower. The massive door was now wide open, no light came out from the depth of evil inside. There, through corridors guarded by hideous titans, she knew the God King would be waiting, a corrupting and seductive smile on his lips. There too, in the … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction – Ruins

Weekly Writing Challenge: Object

February 25, 2014February 25, 2014 / Sisyphus47 / 13 Comments

BEGIN WITH AN OBJECT IN MIND Objects are evocative; they hold stories. The writing challenge this week is to begin with an object.   It stood, alone, in the middle of the circle of stones, at first in darkness. As Siris got closer he thought he saw a faint glow. Was this a trap? He was … Continue reading Weekly Writing Challenge: Object

Emptiness Photo: by Cheri Lucas Rowlands Story inspired by Cheri's picture, and an episode of Infinity Blade III.  Cautiously they move along the vaulted corridor, to their left the late sunlight breaking through the high inaccessible windows, to their right the ancient wall, in front of them the increasing darkness.

#FiveSentenceFiction: Alone

December 13, 2013May 20, 2015 / Sisyphus47 / 4 Comments

 The place should be familiar, but without him, it is as strange as her solitude. She looks at the rugged landscape, the desolate ruins, and the massive tower, the alien sentinel. Alone, she would now face the Enemy, in her hands his swords, in her heart his courage, and her eternal love for him. How … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction: Alone

#FiveSentenceFiction: Letters

November 16, 2013November 15, 2013 / Sisyphus47 / 3 Comments

Letters ~ Vault of Tears  He lived only for them, in the deep dungeon they kept him in, for there was nothing else that could keep his will to fight on. Long ago he had stopped counting days, then weeks, then months. Then years, yes, he remembered the end of the first year, when he … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction: Letters

#FiveSentenceFiction: Erased

November 6, 2013 / Sisyphus47 / 1 Comment

 You saved Siris from eternal solitude in the Vault of Tears, and, now, you're fighting at his side. In the old ruins, guarded by hideous Deathless monsters, you clear your mind, erase any other thought. In that world, one mistake, one hesitation, costs your life, no less. Your silent steps go unheeded, all your senses … Continue reading #FiveSentenceFiction: Erased
