The Menace of the Maple Leaves
8 pp · fantasy

In tall timber country, a stubborn lumberman named Mike Stone arrives with plans to clear-cut every forest in sight—including a mysterious stand of maple trees that locals refuse to touch, bound by an old legend of a woman cursed to protect them two centuries past. When Stone dismisses their fears and vows to fell the maples with axe and dynamite, he awakens something far more dangerous than any ghost story. As supernatural forces stir in the treetops, Stone discovers that some debts run deeper than greed.

Director of the Board
5 pp · fantasy

Hollister Lang rose from nothing to direct one of the world's biggest industries—all thanks to a vivid dream he had ten years ago that somehow predicted his meteoric climb. But when a young man named Carter hears Lang recount the dream's details, he begins to suspect the story isn't finished, and that Lang may have forgotten a crucial chapter about what happened to the person he replaced. As reality starts to echo the dream in unsettling ways, Lang discovers that some visions demand their final act.

Forever and Ever
6 pp · fantasy

A drifter on the road meets a stranger with an impossible tale: four hundred years ago in Italy, he was an alchemist's apprentice who drank a serum granting immortality—but the gift came with a curse that drained his will to live, leaving him to wander aimlessly through the centuries. As the stranger recounts his miraculous survivals across wars and disasters, the narrator struggles to separate delusion from an unsettling truth that keeps him listening.

The Gift
6 pp · fantasy

In "The Gift," violinist Marko Orlatti faces a life-threatening need for brain surgery—until a mysterious visitation during anesthesia leaves him miraculously healed, with no operation ever performed. The story unfolds with quiet unease, as Marko grapples with the strange, unexplained cure that came not from medicine, but from beyond.
