Confessions at Nightgate Inn Part 1
Arrows whistled past Livinia's head as she sprinted down the rocky tunnel. She held Dawnbreaker close to her side so she could slip through a large crack ahead. She pushed in as far as she could, and held her breath. The bandits who were chasing her ran past, shouting obscenities. Livinia waited till she could no longer hear their voices, then began breathing again. She poked her head out to see if the tunnel was clear, and then squeezed out of the crack and began carefully going back the way she came. She and Erandur had been for information regarding the Elder Scroll in these ruins, but they soon found that bandits had overrun them. Six of
Livinia walked slowly up to the entrance of the Bannered Mare. Beside her, Erandur held up a torch to light so the path was well lit. No words were spoken as the two entered the inn. Livinia flinched slightly, the deep arrow wounds in her side causing her a flash of pain. Erandur glanced sideways at her, noticing the movement. He waited by the fireplace, warming his hands and looking after the pelts the two had gathered on their journey, as Livinia walked up the the inn-keeper. The inn-keeper smiled warmly as the Nord approached her. "Good evening! How may I help you?" Livinia looked wearily at her, and managed a slight grin. "I'd like to ren
Rain pattered softly on the cool glass of the window. The large trees in the front yard swirled their leaves and branches with the wind that swept through the yard. Inside the house, a young women sat by a large bay window. She sad with her legs crossed and her arms folded loosely. Her auburn hair hung in soft curls around her face, and her forest green eyes looked out at the rain. The robe she wore was too big for her, hiding her form in its soft fabric. Some letters lay on in front of her on the seat. Some were crispy and bright, letters from friends talking about fashion and the latest movies. Some were from her parents, telling her the go
All my life I've hidden behind a mask
A strange shield of me
Its smooth surface cannot
Chip
It cannot, will not
Break
It is ice, it is stone
Diamond
The perfect barrier
Then how, pray tell
Someone cracked it?
I can't hide as well anymore
Sometimes, they can see
He cracked the ice
The stone
Diamond
And left the scar
Rippling over the surface
This mask, its been with me so long
I've forgotten what it's like
Without
But I've always remembered
Loneliness
I thought he'd kill it
The loneliness
But he turned away
Rejection
Now the scar has healed
I've sealed up the
Crack
I'm faceless yet again
Ice, stone

A young man walked along a dusty abandoned road. His calloused hands were stuffed deep in his pokets, and the collar of his jacket was zipped shut. He walked with a steady cadence, his eyes slowly taking in the fading vegitation, and the long, sagging chain link fence that stretched on forever beside him. The wind swirled heavily around him, swirling dust into delicate ballets with blood red leaves that flew high into the cloudy sky. The man's emerald eyes watered as the wind lashed at his eyes, and he ran his hand across his face. He passed several old cars sitting abandoned by the road, their rusting, dead bodys making ominous creaking soun
A heart can wear a mask
To hide its broken seams
So no one will dare to ask
Aabout its hopes or dreams
It silently will sit
Collecting many scars
Holding on to things that fit
the hole that tears apart
And so this lonely soul goes on
Through a darkened world
Hoping that it'll come upon
A heart as hurt and cold
She's broken,
Her wings are chained to the ground
They said that she's nothing
No future for her to be found
And so she cannot breathe
Her life has been ripped away
She can only gaze to the sky
She was always a quiet girl, never speaking unless she had too. They laughed at her, talked behind her back.

Inside, her heart kept beating. Though if you where to examine it, you would find two thick scars, seemingly healed over. But yet, sometimes, they would rip anew, and bleed fresh. The first was the deepest, a scar that had affected her land as well. Her land was part of her very heart, it's pain, her pain, it's fear, her fear.
The second scar, deep

I love to tell stories and bring ideas and imagination to life with my art. I began in traditional works, and over time expanded to digital mediums as well. When I am not working, I'm drawing, and the freedom of creation is a wonderful escape from the real world. Right now, I focus on tattoo design and character/comic creation.
My favourite things to draw are horses, dragons, demon ponies, and characters from my stories and comics!
It was 10 years ago...
How short yet how long
Seems like only yesterday
It burned
Like only yesterday
My heart was scarred
My eyes swollen shut with tears
Will this day become another
December 7th, 1941
When the years become 15, 20, 30
When it fades into the books
Of history
And those born after
Do not care
I cry and scream like
My sould is being torn
I feel pain and horror
Though I was not there
No one I knew
Perished there
Why do I cry
I'm scared
For the future
For what is to be
Will they care or see
Or will the tributes fade away
Like Pearl Harbor
Another forgotten day
People died there too
Burned in steel
And
