Nocturne Alley


AS SCORCHING AS FIRE MIGHT BE, SOME CONSIDER IT MORE FRIEND THAN FOE. INTO THE FIRE, REBORN. OUT COMES SOMETHING NEW. STRONGER, BRAVER. JUST A HINT OF DANGER. LIKE A PHOENIX REBORN FROM ITS ASHES, YOU KNOW YOU’VE BECOME SOMETHING BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL. YOUR FEELINGS ARE MORE DEFINED. YOUR MIND MORE CONCISE. CHALLENGES THAT USED TO BE, NO LONGER CREATE THE BARRIER THEY ONCE DID. NOTHING MORTAL SCARES YOU NOW, ONLY THE NIGHT. WITH ITS DARK SURPRISES IT GIVES YOU CHILLS THAT NO AMOUNT OF HUMAN TOUCH COULD GIVE YOU. SINISTER, DARK, WAITING. YOU SMELL BLOOD NOW, THE THICK TASTE OF IRON LINGERS ON YOUR LIPS. YOU’VE HAD A TASTE OF IT NOW, CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO HAVE ANOTHER?

A lover of wild things. Being out in nature and connecting with all of the living things that surround me.
