Book excerpt: At first, I didn’t find fog – fog found me. Liminal, transformative and increasingly elusive – far from a simple cloud of water droplets, fog is a state of mind. As mist drifted through a copse of trees, turning a familiar place strange and otherworldly, Laura Pashby snapped a photograph and an obsession began. Pashby hunts for fog, walks and swims in it, explores its often pivotal role in literature, mythology and history, as well as its environmental significance. There has been a 50 per cent drop in 'fog events' in the past fifty years, fog is drifting away without us noticing and the ecological impact could be calamitous. As she journeys to the foggiest places she can find, Pashby immerses herself in Dartmoor’s dangerous fog, searches for the Scottish haar, experiences Venice’s magical mist, tell us the myths behind the River Severn’s fog and the shipwrecks it hides. It’s easy to get lost in fog, but sometimes it’s where imperceptible things can be found, including in ourselves. Chasing Fog is a captivating meditation on fog and mist, a love song to weather and nature’s power to transform.

Download or read book Whispers of the Forgotten Realm written by Robin Wickens and published by Rob's Books. This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of **Eryndor** is a once-vibrant realm now slowly succumbing to the relentless grip of an ancient curse, its beauty marred by the creeping decay of time and dark magic. The skies are eternally shrouded in a dim, blood-red twilight, a perpetual state of half-light that cloaks the world in an unsettling gloom. The sun, a faint and distant memory, struggles to break through the heavy, oppressive clouds, casting only the weakest of rays upon the land. This weak sunlight creates an eerie, otherworldly ambiance, where night and day have merged into an endless twilight, leaving the inhabitants in a constant state of uncertainty. The landscape of Eryndor is a haunting reflection of its former glory. Once, it was a realm of breathtaking beauty and grandeur, where towering spires and majestic cities stood as a testament to the civilization that flourished there. Now, those same cities lie in ruin, their magnificent architecture crumbling and overtaken by nature. Vines and moss creep over ancient stone, reclaiming what was once theirs, while the wind whispers through empty corridors, carrying with it the memories of a forgotten age. The castles that once housed mighty lords and ladies are now little more than hollow shells, their walls cracked and broken, their halls echoing with the ghosts of the past. Some are said to be haunted, the restless spirits of those who perished in the curse-bound cataclysm unable to find peace. These spectral figures wander the halls, their lamentations a constant reminder of the tragedy that befell Eryndor. Beyond the cities and castles, the wilderness of Eryndor has grown wild and untamed. The forests, once filled with life and vibrant colors, are now dark and foreboding. Towering trees with gnarled branches stretch towards the sky like skeletal fingers, their leaves a sickly shade of brown. The ground is covered in a thick layer of dead leaves, and the air is heavy with the scent of decay. In these haunted woods, strange creatures roam—twisted, nightmarish beings born of the curse, as well as the spirits of the dead, forever trapped between worlds. Rivers and lakes, once sparkling with clear, fresh water, have turned stagnant and brackish. The waters now carry a deep, unnatural hue, and strange shapes can be seen moving beneath the surface. Some say that the curse has given life to creatures of the deep, ancient beings that should have remained buried and forgotten. The people of Eryndor, those who still survive, are a shadow of their former selves. They eke out a meager existence in the remnants of their once-great civilization, struggling to survive in a world that seems to have turned against them. They speak in hushed tones of the curse, of the ancient wrong that brought it upon them, but few know the full truth. Fear and superstition have taken root, and trust is a rare commodity. Many have turned to dark rituals and forbidden magic in a desperate attempt to lift the curse, but these efforts have only deepened the realm's descent into darkness. Eryndor is a world where hope is a fragile thing, easily crushed under the weight of despair. Yet, there are still those who fight against the darkness, small bands of adventurers, scholars, and warriors who seek to unravel the mysteries of the curse and restore Eryndor to its former glory. They venture into the deepest, most dangerous parts of the land, facing the horrors that lurk there in search of answers. But time is running out, and the curse grows stronger with each passing day, threatening to consume everything in its path.

Book excerpt: In the distance, the ominous rumblings of thunder can be heard while a dark drizzle begins to fall on a dreary summer afternoon that makes no sunny pretenses about what is coming. Albert is at Professor Charles' house for a high-energy physics lesson when a friend bearing a high-energy piece of bad news bursts through the doorway. The news relates to the murder of a dear friend a week ago and what Albert saw on that foggy night, "There was a ghostly figure wielding a sword in a rowboat near the scene of the riverbank killing."Prof Charles quickly states, "Albert, there is a sword in a diabolically haunted mansion not far from here. The mansion was owned by a rich man who was so sinister that many considered him to be the Devil incarnate, and he was referred to as 'The Sovereign of Sin.' Upon his death, several morbidly evil spirits hastily escaped to various rooms of the mansion. In one of those rooms is a knight with a sword. But the mansion is confusing in its construction, and those brave enough to have entered it while being stalked by rattling chains cannot agree on where the room is."Albert's girlfriend, Molly, has just arrived. Molly's mother, Mabel, is a revered teacher, and she often helps Albert by telling him her "Lessons of Life": "Sometimes ideas that have become part of our entrenched assumptions need to be looked at again. Reexamine all your assumptions, even those you find irrefutable, and relook at clues you have been unable to fit into any assumption. Perhaps that will lead you in new directions."The news of a sword accessible to the murderer gives Albert and Molly a new clue to follow. Molly considers finding the killer their higher calling, and Albert follows clues with the enthusiasm and perspicacity of Sherlock Holmes. They start their journey with trepidation. The densely tree-surrounded path to the haunted mansion begins surreally serene given that its destination is the home of The Sovereign of Sin. Only the storm clouds and the heavy mist add a subtle version of reality, which precedes the more demanding version that occurs when a huge lightning strike hits nearby.The closer Albert and Molly get to the haunted mansion, the more the path takes on the threatening encompassment of their goal. The trees and thick overgrowth turn into strangely evil forms as they become darkly shadowed and more impenetrable, and the sky fills with ghost-shaped, black rain clouds that close in on Molly and Albert and move and morph and forebode the fast-approaching, ill-omened night.Then another massive lightning strike with its bone-rattling thunder shakes Molly and Albert's nerves raw."Did you see that?" exclaims Albert terrifyingly as he points up to a spot in one of the trees ahead of them."See what?" asks Molly worriedly."During the lightning, up in that tree I saw something staring at us," anxiously responds Albert. "It was the form of a ghost, which looked to me like one of the morbidly wicked spirits that The Sovereign of Sin turned into upon his death."As they slowly walk past the tree, each stares up at the spot; then another lightning flash occurs, and instantaneously both their expressions turn ghostly fear-stricken. They run past the tree.Albert exclaims, "So you saw The Sovereign of Sin's malevolent spirit?""No," cries Molly. "I saw the Grim Reaper reaching out to grab me!""Great ghouls!" declares Albert. "Aren't we two, with our spine-chilling imaginations, going to have fun in the haunted mansion!"Albert and Molly have many grand adventures in store for them as they follow clues to a killer lurking near the rich waters of the grand ol' river and its lush surrounding forest. The Legend of Mighty Mabel is the story of a summer of wonderful joy, great adventures, scary fun, fun for the sake of fun, and a bit of romance. And it is the story of the bravery, the love, and the "Lessons of Life" of Mighty Mabel.
