The Hunt

The Bermuda Triangle is a myth. Just another patch of ocean, statistically no more significant than an equivalent area anywhere else in the Atlantic.

But there are…places. Places where things just – poof! – disappear. There one minute and gone the next. But nothing really disappears. It can’t. It would be against…nature. Physics!

It has to go somewhere. I want to know where.

So I set out to find one of those places. A real statistical anomaly.

189 square miles of barely inhabited ranch-land in northwestern South Dakota.

Here. A 757 disappeared over this spot an hour ago. We’re going to find it.

Instruments of Destruction

by John du Bois

"Instruments of destruction" wasn't always a metaphor. Wizards rewrote the history books to deny us our power.

Pandora didn't open a container. She taught a talented, cruel family.

Jericho did happen that way, but they gave the clerics all the credit.

There was even a percussionist who could send ships through time and space. The wizards rewrote her into *geography* to erase her.

The only proof of the true tales are the relics that remain, and after years of searching, I finally found one.

I found Bermuda's Triangle.

Soon, all will know the true power of the ancient bards.
