Black Smoke

Grey Moon – Friday (ep. 58)

A spiral of smoke drifted in, bringing a sense of dread into the bar. The trio watched as it moved to the darkest corner of the room and solidified into a red-eyed, spectral figure.

Yuffie let out a long deep sigh. “Two black rums please, Reala.”

Reala poured them with a sense of urgency. Yuffie took them over to the stranger.

“Ex-wife,” said Fuen.

Shivers ran down Fuen and Reala’s spines.

    1. Origins lie in the online world Second Life. I own a bawdy theatre there where we put on silly plays. I used to send a notice a day to the groups as we were only active one day a week with a show. Due to the constraint of 512 characters per notice, I developed a style of a self-contained micro story each day in under 512 characters. They can chain together to form larger narratives, such as the Grey Moon story. But the aim is to tell a story each day with a start, finish and end, that would fit into a Second Life notice. Little Fears is a continuation of that notice sending project. 🙂
