Excerpt: It was a cold tonight with the air of summer giving place to autumn's cooling hand. The sky was clear, and the stars were shining brightly without the moon. A gently breeze walked through the tree tops: the leaves all danced at its coming. In a large clearing the night's black blanket was being held back by a circle of fires.

The older men were telling stories of a strange world to their eager audience.

Excerpt: The old man sat at his table going through the castle scrolls feverishly. There was only several hours left until the impending doom for the kingdom of Wrethmore. He searched for anything that would stop the prophecy from coming to pass; the appointed time when the wrath of heaven would be revealed. Then he heard footsteps coming down the stone staircase to the kingdom library in the chamber beneath the main hall. A man with a royal robe and a crown of silver came into view as the sage rummaged through the various manuscripts.

brom21 writer: The stress on weather piqued my interest. I love the natural beauty and awe of things like storms with dark rumbling thunder and lightning or perhaps a peaceful serenade on a snowy day. I will try to hash out a story like you requested. Thanks for the newsletter and may your days be bright and sunny day or dark and rainy if you are like me. Kudos!
