The Weight of the Morning
The first time I felt it, I was living in a cramped apartment above a laundromat, the kind where the dryers never quite finished their job and the air always...

At the arid outskirts of the desert town of Red Hollow, where the sun scorched the earth and the wind carried the scent of dust and decay, stood the crumbling...
