This is a (very) short piece of fan fiction for the upcoming online game Shroud of the Avatar. It can have wide appeal as it isn’t strictly fantasy despite the game’s obvious setting. Check out the story and comment below. Also check out the game if you are into MMOs. 
Also posted on the Shroud of the Avatar forums.
Now available as spoken word (free!) at The Caverns.
I wrote this short piece for the Shroud of the Avatar (new MMO, see previous post) writing competition, it was mostly rushed so not as polished as it could be. I still like the idea so I may re-write it or edit for use elsewhere. The concept was that the piece had to be about the underworld in the mythical realm in which the game is set.
I was aiming for something dark but not horror or gore. Enjoy!
While I’m writing this blog I figured I’d give a heads up to Shroud of the Avatar. A computer game (hopefully) coming out in late 2014. Created by Richard Garriott and his team at Portalarium. Check it out!
The team ran a successful kickstarter campaign and continue to allow new subscribers to join on their website.
“Journey to the world of Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues, a computer role playing game created by Lord British (aka Richard Garriott), creator of the genre defining Ultima series of computer games, Starr Long, director of Ultima Online, and Tracy Hickman, author of the Dragonlance series. It combines rich story, like those of the single player Ultimas, with deep and varied multiplayer experiences, like Ultima Online.”
