Xion Island Carrier: Chapter 21 (no missing chapters I split one)

Xion Island: Chapter 17
I am filled with hatred. And, to my disgust, something close to nostalgia. The flesh remembers things the memory has never known. I tell her my name...

Wow .... no wonder your therapist remembered this several years later. This poem is beautiful and I love your therapist, how caring and professional he/she must be to retain the work of a patient in their heads for 4 or 5 years. And how bloody...

Posted on Sat, 08 Feb 2025
That sounds like every family dinner at our house. One of Mark's kids always has a grievance about something--and games nights get ridiculously competitive.
The thing that makes this story work so well is the pace ... you turn it at just...
