A Dragon Dilemma
Light fell in slanted pools around the base of the ancient oak tree. Its gnarled roots spread across the mossy clearing, and all the young saplings kept a respectful distance, bowing their heads as a light breeze rippled through them. The oak had been there long before the forest that surrounded it. Sigils were carved deep in its bark, their meanings long since lost to time.

Infestation
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Maybe that’s why we had no warning, no chance to repel their invasion. They arrived in silence, their cloaked vessels soundlessly appearing over our cities without even casting a shadow. There was no war, no last stand for humanity. It was over long before we even knew it began.
