DREAMS of a CLOUD
Peruse the many random ramblings of a writer-in-training as I build stories and develop my craft.

The Revel (a poem)
This is a poem I wrote introducing one of the major antagonistic factions in my D&D campaign. Kind of a blend of Greed and Gluttony, with ties to both vampires and the fae and faewild shenanigans, like the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Quite macabre, to be honest, but that’s part of the fun, isn’t it?
Welcome! Welcome!
Come, dance the night away!
Won’t you join our Revel?
Throw all your cares away!
Mind not the smell of rot
Nor dear guests, now deceased
Just listen to my music
And partake our glorious Feast
With luck, you may be chosen
To spread our Feast abroad
To bring folk to our Revel
And sip their precious blood
