WHAT'S NEW?
Marshside Tryst with a Massage
Summary:
An encounter with a strange beast left me with a new scar that festered with poison. I thought I was doomed to meet an early end when word of a miraculous healer who lived in an isolated marsh reached my ears. So, I ventured forth and found a lone hut nestled within a grove, where I came across a Lizardfolk medicine woman who was the healer in question.
Her name was Rayla, an exile from the Great Marsh where her kind had long lived since the time of the Ancient Wars. She could smell the poison belonging to a predator that they often hunted, meaning she knew of a cure and would prepare it to cleanse me before it could claim my life. That was, if I was willing to pay the price grant her a child.
A simple tale set in a fantastical world, where the gods had long since shed their avatars and left the mortal races to fend for themselves. But as life continued to flourish, so too did stories endlessly unfold. This is just one of those stories—of how desire and longing can bring isolation, but also the chance to seek fulfillment.

Villageside Tryst with an Ewe
May 30, 2025
Summary:
I was someone who had a way with women, whether it was from my looks or words. But our village happened to be rather small and, after some time, I’d already had my fill of the ones closer to my age. So, I set my eyes on the most unique woman in the village, who happened to be one of the half-beast folks you'd hear about in stories from places beyond our walls.
Her name was Marissa, a motherly and kind widow whose body was shrouded in a soft layer of wool. She had come to the village some time ago and worked her way into becoming the local yarn spinner who everyone knew and loved for being kind without a fault. It was when she came looking for a woodworker to help repair her loom that I decided to make my move.
Little did I know she happened to be a different person away from prying eyes. That she wasn’t just some clueless sheep, and it wasn’t by chance she sought me out. For the first time it seemed like I was the one being preyed on as an autumn storm left me stuck in her home until morning with no way out…

Mountainside Tryst on a Snowy Night
Summary:
We met that winter when she descended from the mountainside, a beautiful figure covered in soft brown fur that stood out against the blanket of white. Her hair was dark and thick, braided long with a set of horns between tall ears that were raised high. And her hazel eyes shone like amber as they caught the light reflected off the snow.
She was a half-breed unlike any other I’d seen, a wandering huntress in need of shelter as the forming blizzard threatened to bury everything. I offered to host her in my cabin until the storm passed and she could travel on her own once more. But a life spent wandering was often a lonely one, and sharing a bed was a wonderful way to keep warm on those long, winter nights…
A simple tale set inside a fantastical world, where the gods had long since shed their avatars and left the mortal races to fend for themselves. But as life continued to flourish, so too did stories endlessly unfold. This is just one of those stories—of a short tryst in a cabin as a man and woman waited out the snowy nights.
