PRELUDE TO BOOK II – THE DEAD GAME SERIES


house in woods


Has End House returned to Oasis?
Our chanting had cast it to sea.
 
It can’t be back.
 
We can’t be under attack.

Silence fills the forest.
A cold breeze tickles my arms.
I follow the path through
a thick copse of trees.

The sky darkens.
A shadow looms in the distance.
I enter the clearing.
Seagulls cry and swoop low.

I halt by a deep hole.
The spot where End House had stood.
A hard shove
And I’m falling.

Laughter follows my descent.
I hit rock bottom. 
A tunnel stretches before me.
Light at its end.

THE DEAD GAME CONTINUES
PRELUDE TO BOOK II
