The Starborn Mage

Category: Fantasy

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.

A knock at the door changed everything.

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

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

The end.
