  • The alchemist that forgot to die

    It was not sudden, nor a progressive and noticeable thing.
    It’s
    just that one day, he realized he forgot it all. Breathing, food, the
    need to sleep… He always seen that as an hindrance to his magical
    studies, and years (decades ? centuries ?) of training his will to bend
    reality must have shaped his body to what he have become.
    No need to wonder about such a small thing as immortality. There is still many mysteries to learn ! Many secrets to reveal !

  • Terror on the Orient-Express – The bloodied Fez

    5 Durward street, Whitechapel, London, 1893.

    – Well, what can you make of… that ?
    The
    doctor Saroch look upon his colleague. The doctor Hobbs was not someone
    easily shocked nor prone to sensationalism, and yet, he saw fear in his
    eyes. He bent over to the patient and began his examination. Skin
    dried, quasi mummified. Slow breathing, alive ? Eyes were moving under
    the lids. Atrophied muscles. All evidences pointed to signs of
    senescence, but teeth, bone structure and callosities said otherwise.
    This was somehow the body of a young man, yet pruned and dried like an
    very old person.

    He went to the head and tried to remove this dark fez that seems to be the only article of clothing of the poor sod. He gasped.
    – Oh my god ! It’s growing under his skin !
