You push the button.
Ding.
Mr. Table is back! This time there are several (well, four) glasses of juice.
Woo juice! Clearly this is… Erm… Maybe a different picture will be more clear?
Uhhhh… Maybe… A different picture?
Erm.
Ok, but, why are there so many pictures of the same four juices? Clearly these are the same ingredients, or at least very similar ones. But they're all in different glasses and on different backgrounds. Why? Is there some conspiracy going on here that I'm just now finding out about? I'm usually up on all the conspiracies...
If there isn't, I'm going to start one. On to the next picture!
Finally! Ingredients!
Ok, let’s do this!
You pick up a glass of red juice. It looks suspiciously like watermelon juice, but the ingredients claim it’s grape and grapefruit.
And, if I had to guess, the previous pictures had beets or red cabbage in it. They look a lot like beet juice, while this one is significantly pinker and grainier.
The ingredients are a lie.
Here ya go! A delicious combination of grapes, cucumbers, and… pickles.
Something tells me that wouldn’t be a particularly good juice.
Although, I suspect that any juice this color made by a human with the intention of being drunk- drank- drinken- whatever... wouldn’t be made with pickles and cucumbers. Just a suspicion of mine.
It may shock you to learn, but the orange juice…
Is probably made out of oranges.
I know. It was weird for me to learn, too.
There aren’t any ingredients on this one, but I have had more than one juice in my life, and I’d be willing to bet money that this is carrot juice. There might be a couple other ingredients in it, but carrots make up at least half.
You drink the juices of your choice. Or, of our choice.

...Or, of some intern’s choice.
You feel healthy and hydrated. Time to move on?

The Reborn Runesmith
We have all read stories about the reincarnated or portaled earthling going to the fantasy world and gaining a cheat and super abilities. This isn't one of those. The hero or villian here is just a smart guy who only gets to choose a few things like what he is and then given the ability to have mana. He doesn't even get to choose what kind of mana he gets it could be fire,water,air, etc. This world is different than ours. Gunpowder, medicines, and other things will probably not work or be availible. Who is to say that the beings of this new world will even have the same internal anatomy. These are all things our MC will have to discover. Just like our world you can be born with great genetics but if you are a lazy and undriven person nothing will come of it. This is my first attempt to write. There WILL be mistakes. I am a mathmatician not an english major so be prepared for questionable grammer and spellings. One of these days if I enjoy doing this I will get me an editor who did english instead of math and science.

Nights of Sambria: And the Wish of Light
“I discovered a secret. One I desperately wish could have stayed hidden. It was locked away, concealed in a fantastical world on the doorstep of 7 billion people who stayed utterly oblivious to it. If they will be spared the terror that is coming, I can’t begin to imagine. Know that a forgotten heritage of a dwindling people whispered, unknowingly sending a call to the ancient mysteries of the world. Something listened. And now events are set in motion that could force the earth on a course of terrible change. I am being hunted and have run out of time. There were no stories about it. No legends. Not even scribbles. Yet, the threat of it is real and that’s why I’m writing this warning with shaking hands. So pay attention those who read this, be careful of what lies waiting cloaked in the darkness. That which made their home the lost places of this world.” She folded the letter with a shuddering breath and stared back in the direction from where the noise reverberated through the halls. It was of stone doors shattering one by one. The chances of getting out safely were all but gone. The letter in her hand was all warning they would have. It dropped into one of the Wells and all that could be done now was hope it was found in time, if at all. -- This was my very first large story. ;) I started writing it years ago. Was fun, was difficult, but in the end, it is a story I hope that will inspire. The prologue is in first person perspective and the rest of the story in 3d. Just a little heads-up :P It is a fantasy epic with a contemporary twist for the start. The first arc of the novel is set inside our modern world, but as the mysterious events around Calin intensifies, the hidden secrets in the world start to become more fantastical. The story follows Calin, a young orphan in search of answers. But, the answers he seeks will change his life and that of his friends forever, for the secrets that caused his situation have far greater ramifications than the small village of Lamb's Crest could have known. Remember to leave ratings and reviews. I'm quite interested in hearing your thoughts on the story. ;) Enjoy reading, Omri Hope

The Weaver's Burden (HIATUS)
Weavers... this lot has been synonymous with freaks at best, and devil worshipers at worst, since they were first found. Thankfully, they make up a negligible number of people, but they can still be incredibly dangerous. Oftentimes, they wind up killing themselves or others when their ability to perform magic begins to manifest, acting as a sort of natural culling process for weavers. However, this was well before the Republic of Sidia realized that the ability to manipulate reality can be reigned in, controlled. So if you had the chance to turn something dangerous into a weapon, why wouldn't you? This is what fate awaits a young man named Emmet. After his weaving manifests and blood is on his hands, he is given a choice: the gallows, or the Esphell Monastery. What awaits Emmet at the monastery? What is this magic, and how can he control it? What happens to weaver's once they are properly trained? And most importantly, will he survive long enough to have these questions answered?
