Prologue: The Promise at the Gate

(prologue longer than this just limit on here) Helios woke before the sun, the room cloaked in darkness. He lingered in bed, listening. Usually, at this hour, he'd hear the familiar scrape of his father's whetstone, his boots crossing the floor to the water basin, and his mother's gentle humming… read more

I'm just a girl and I like pastries and coffee. ☕ As a ritual.

Have you ever experienced a strange situation while performing a ritual or offering something to the God you believe in?

Look, in the past, I held great respect for certain gods in Roman and Greek mythology, mainly due to my belief in astrology. I particularly felt a deep admiration for Pluto—or Hades—in Antic Greek mythology. Normally, people do not like Hades or Pluto very much, whether astrologically or because of… read more

Everything feels so vapid and fake

Guesses on his secret roommate?

Michael woke with a sigh, wiping his eyes. He reached for his phone—February 14th. He involuntarily started the ritual of doomscrolling when the scent hit him: coffee and cinnamon. Still in his pajama pants, phone in hand, he followed the smell out of the bedroom. He could almost rationalize the… read more

Kids in your 20s...

There are times that I find myself wondering how I got to 37 still being single and living with two cats. One of my little cousins is marrying by the end of this month and she's 6 years younger. I find here way too many single/divorced people with kids and they're in their early 30s or… read more

Good Morning 🌞🌄

Tea. Is it a ritual or a spellcast of peace in the moment 🤗🕊️😸

We don't lack responsibility, we lack adulthood.

We live in soft times. Not because we lack information, nor because we lack words, but because everything possible has been done to avoid one single thing: being an adult. Today, no one fails. Today, no one makes mistakes. Today, no one causes harm. Today, everything is explained. I’m late because… read more

They don't necessarily need an exciting life to feel like they're living one because their imagination can do most of the work for them. A simple walk becomes a cinematic moment, getting… read more

Online dating is toxic

​I have been in the landscape of digital dating for years, and in that time, I have been fundamentally reshaped. I began as a man who believed he understood the desires of women, only to emerge as someone more profoundly disillusioned and confused by the modern "marketplace" than I ever thought… read more

Time is short

I've mentioned why I don't date anymore, but it really boils down to a basic truth that time is a non-replenishable resource for us humans. Once gone, it's gone. Dating requires genuine intention for the participants to commit their time. The less time you have, the more you look for those genuine… read more

Could You Resist Temptation

A thought experiment: If someone handed you an ancient book containing a single ritual guaranteed to work, but you knew there would be an unknown price to pay, would you open it? Would self-preservation finally lose out to curiosity? What ritual outcome (extended life, world peace, riches,… read more
