Chapter 3 - The Duke

         "I was once a Duke, many years ago." - He starts his story. "I was very young and my brother envied my position. That said, because of political persecution I had to flee." - He looks like he's leaving a few things out, but I want to see where this goes. So I let him continue. "I had to take refuge in any place I could avoid being recognized and killed, the first thing I knew for sure is that I had to go away some place new, where no one would know me." He says while we walk to the gazebo in the garden.  "As much as I tried to run, my brother's men were many and I got caught and imprisoned." He pauses for a moment seeming to relive a painful memory.

Chapter 2 - An Impossible Situation

Chapter 2 - An Impossible Situation          I open my eyes. I don't recognize this place. Where am I? Looking up I can see I'm at a four poster bed covered with crimson sheets and curtains.

Chapter 1 - Phantom Pain

Chapter 1 Phantom Pain      It's dark... dark and foggy.       I can hardly see where to place the next step.       I feel like I'm surrounded by a dense forest with muddy ground. The smell is of wet sand as it feels after a heavy rain. I'm not comfortable and I look for a sign of dry land unsuccessfully so.      Distracted and weary I start to feel a strange sensation that chills me to the bone, a shudder down my spine and I can't bear to look behind. I am sure there's someone or something lurking in the shadows.       As the fear grows within me the silence seems disturbingly deafening and tension increases underneath. I feel like I have to try and move as fast as I possibly can and avoid this "thing" from revealing itself and making my fear become despair or worse...      I finally see an entrance door that seems to lead to a very large camp house that looks empty.
