Empire of Magic

Category: Fantasy

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the waves crashing below.

The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.

The fire had burned down to embers, but neither of them moved to stoke it.

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

The end.
