Isham And The Golden Watch

The Golden Watch

Walking beneath the boughs of the ancient, towering trees, a lone man slowly made his way through the damp forest. Stepping out across a root as wide across as he was tall, he took each step carefully, eyes darting from ground to canopy.

Pausing to listen to the nearby call of a bird, Isham sighed. It had been a quiet day in Safe Harbor - quiet and boring. He had decided to take a brief stroll into the nearby forest after a passing cloud had

Quincy's New Game

A Quiet Interlude

Quincy found himself standing a fair distance from the doorway to Felecia and David's home. The tomthumb had excused himself from the others, claiming he needed a breath of fresh air. It was dark outside, the only illumination being the tiny pinpoints of colorful light from some of Felecia's more exotic flowers. Holding his crossed arms tightly against his body, he rubbed his hands against them repeatedly. He was shivering, despite the pleasant temper

Meet The Mantoid

Those Strange Urges

Joseph and Maria pushed through the thick jungle, making their way towards Gower's kill system as best they could. It was tough going. The sheer density of bushes, trees, vines, and assorted plants that had been brought in to grow over the terrain made their trek difficult and time consuming. Xulia stood above most of the undergrowth, due to her size. The humans had no such advantage.

Joseph grumbled, “Gracious me, I had no idea we'd made th

The Mantoid Attraction

A Failed Exhibit

It all began when a park-led, corporate-funded expedition captured an extremely rare giant orchid mantoid. The beautiful creatures were incredibly elusive and as rare as red diamonds. The team in question had caught a prime specimen, just after she was hatched. It was a brilliant stroke of luck. The mission plan had originally sought to acquire the more common variety of mantoid, and more than one at that, but the team called off the search as soo

Galya's Portal Problems

Rest And Relaxation

Galya stretched lazily, uncoiling her two hundred foot serpentine length in pleasure after having slept for what felt like days. The searing heat of the steam cave she called home had revitalized her, as it always did. Rosalak warned her not to stress her energy stores by overusing her magic, and like one of his foolish young neko novices, she had ignored him. The giant naga sighed in frustration. The shaman had no business being correct all t

The Dridder Strikes Back

The Dridder's Cave

The tomthumb leader gripped his javelin reassuringly while watching anxiously from his hiding spot behind the leafy plant. Ten feet away, six of his companions were carefully creeping towards the cave entrance ahead. They were being extra cautious this time, staying low, taking each step with great care, and using only hand gestures to communicate. They could not afford to make any mistakes.

Too many of his people had fallen victim to the dr

The Little Dridder That Could

The Child Alone

The small dridder huddled in the back of her makeshift den whimpering softly. She was feverish with hunger, feeling the all too familiar gnawing sensation inside her stomach. It felt like her muscles were both burning and stretching at the same time. She hated the awful feeling, yet had experienced it all too often over the past few days.

Serimela was still only a child, just over half-grown at fourteen inches in height, and she was very m

The Making Of A Queen

The Wrong Thing To Say

Marsha was upset. Oh, she was still enjoying the weakening struggles of the human she had swallowed a couple minutes ago, but the words he spoke to her still echoed in her ears. She detested those words. She was not a monster!

She had been minding her own business, traveling sedately through a sparse section of jungle when she spotted him. The human was standing looking straight at her the whole time as she approached. He looked afraid, b

Queen Marsha?

Marsha's Visit

The giant, ruddy brown slug-girl moved slowly away from the Vorcheck homestead with a smile upon her face. At just over eighty feet in length, she made quite a sight as she backtracked along the trail she had used when entering the area. She had been visiting for the past several days with her old friend Felecia, a miniature chameleon slug-girl. Her departure last night had brought tears to both their eyes as she hugged Felecia tightly. Promising she would r

Neko Games

The Dreams

The sleek black haired neko lay flat on her back with her hands behind her head in her favorite place, a large moss bed surrounded by tiny pink and blue flowers so delicate the merest whisper would set their petals aflutter. She was perfectly still, purring with contentment, while allowing her well-toned muscles to relax.

The shadows from the nearby giant trees were lengthening as the sun slowly began to set on the clearing. The daylight sounds of the forest surro

Nekonip

The Chase

The scrawny black haired neko had been minding her own business, hunting for some elusive neeras in a small outcropping of rocks when she heard the menacing howls. With a couple squirming neeras already in her stomach her ears shot up and her eyes darted across the horizon. Her tail twitched back and forth anxiously.

Satasha had heard the howls over the past few days but they had up until now been far off in the distance and concentrated mostly in the dark forest she

In The Belly Of The Beast

The Bathing Pool

David stretched his arms above his head and sighed in contentment, standing just outside the open doorway of his home. His wife, Felecia, was still slumbering peacefully in their room. It was dark outside, with just the faintest touch of color on the horizon, a sign of the morning yet to come. The countless colorful flowers surrounding the home were but pale grey shapes in the shadowy darkness. The faint light cast by the twinkling radiance fro

All Is Not As It Seems

Prologue

It was a beautiful summer day at the Vorchek's homestead. A recent rainstorm had come and gone some hours ago, leaving behind a cool, moist breeze. The air was alive with the scents of countless flowers of all variety, carefully manicured and neatly placed for a most pleasing visual effect. Tiny birds flitted from flower to flower, chirping at one another zestfully as they went about their daily routine.

Nestled in a vast clearing deep within the oldest
