The young man sat at his desk,
unsure what to write. It had been like this for days now, sitting at
his desk, unsure what to do. He couldn’t take it anymore. Where was
his muse when he needed it; that simple spark within his mind to keep
him going, to make his mind wonder at its marvelous ideas? He groaned

Just a taste,�Lilly thought to herself.�Just this one, little taste.


She lifted the frightened human girl off the ground, bringing her in closer. It's just to see what all the fuss is about, she probably won't even taste very good. The little human, too frightened to even move, looked at the Lilligant with a pair of wide, tearful eyes, awaiting her fate.

Arthur McBride was a
friend of Roxana’s ever since her family opened the restaurant.

Fake magic shops and fake witches? A dime a dozen. Everyone seemed to know where one was, and tourists easily found their way into an “authentic experience” designed to separate them from their money in exchange for mere ambiance and gimcrackery. Thomas knew because he'd investigated so many of them in the past year. The true ones existed, he knew- usually well hidden, building a reliable customer base on word of mouth rather than vulgar advertisement. Lord knew that he'd parked his
