Quote from NORMAN THE GREAT AND SAD EDGAR VS THE BLOOD DRAGON By Jason Figueira - “What the fuck?” Allen muttered as he bent down to pick up the book. The pages blew back and forth due to the wind. Suddenly, lightning flashed across the sky while a crack of thunder roared out into the night. With it, a shadow of a person was cast over Allen as he turned around in horror. “Wha—” Before he could finish his thought, a knife slit his throat and blood cascaded down his neck.

Quote from The Staff of the Damned by Devin Cabrera - "James was taken aback. He had never seen anything like this before. The staff grew hot in his hand, and he threw it to the ground. Instead of clattering to the dirt, it landed straight up on its end and began to spin slowly, like an item in a museum display."

A quote from The Torturer by L.W Young - "Every pulled fingernail extracted a vital piece of intel from a defiant rebel, every lashing whip brought a traitor closer to penance, and every severed limb meant another hand that could not be raised against the Kingdom. Over the years, Dimitrius had even learned to enjoy his work."

Quote from -In the Blood by Andy H: "The figure stood almost close enough to touch. It was covered from the top of its head to its feet in a black-hooded cloak that hid its form from view. The cowled head lifted slightly; blue fire played in two deep sunken holes where its eyes should be."
