The Goblin and Me
Written By Thaumus the Bard

And the goblin,
with his purple skin and dimly lit eyes,
he sits next to me,
and together we begin to fade.
He and I have only shadows,
they inhale us,
they consume us,
they obliterate us body and soul.

“We have been waiting for you for thousands of years,
a prophecy foretold of you coming here,
let peace sooth your spirit, there’s nothing to fear,
we will be your watchers and teachers for the next handful of years.”

I whistled and hummed a little melody,
the giant albino crows stirred from their sleep,
inside my mind I heard them speak,
“welcome not yet hero from Umbrafall Keep”.

I entered the forest with teddy bear in hand,
hung down by my side there I stand,
in this deeply magical land,
completely untouched by time’s aging sand.

Their giant cocoons sway in the forest deep,
gently pushed by a magical breeze.
There they hang fast asleep,
these crows who wait so patiently for me.

A drawing I was working on last night, just some practice for a little something I wrote.

Sketching a bat creature from my Eight Realms project…last time I drew this little guy was shortly after getting out of the hospital end of December 2023.

A snippet of a poem:

Back when penguins reigned supreme,
they ruled with an iron wing,
but eventually they lost their monarchy,
the last being the Penguin King.

Quick sketch of Hoo, before the dragon ate his wings.

Deep in the lands of Umbrafall, where the Eternal Dusk lies, is an ancient forest older than all of the Eight Realms combined.

Foggy mists rolled through Umbrafall in the early morn, secretive and shadowy tendrils stretching across the ancient lands.
