MADILIM. Iyan yung unang salitang naisip niya nang magising siya. Dahan-dahan niyang iminulat ang mga mata niya nang sandaling sinabi ng sistema niyang dapat na siyang magising -na handa na siyang gumising -mula sa malalim at matagal na pagkakahimbing. Kung ilang oras siyang natutulog, hindi niya masabi. Kung nanaginip man siya, hindi niya na maalala kung ano. Ilang segundo ring nagpyesta ang mga mata niya sa kadiliman bago siya mag-isip uli ng mga sumunod na salita. "Nasaan ako?" ang itinanong niya sa sarili, na alam naman niyang hindi niya rin masasagot. Hanggang sa may nakapagbanggit sa kanya ng kinaroroonan niya. "Hindi ito langit. Hindi rin ito impyerno," sabi ng isang lalaking walang permanenteng pangalan, na kanyang "taga-bantay." Sunod nitong ipinaliwanag na patay na siya at binigyan siya ng bagong buhay sa bagong mundong ginagalawan niya.

But what is the difference between the love of a mother, and the love of a friend? And in a world with such blurred lines, where money is tight and there’s little outside influence, when does the need to survive slide into something more sinister? ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing

The things we want are so very rarely the things we need. Clifton Heights, a modest Adirondack town, offers many unique attractions. Arcane Delights sells both paperbacks and hard-to-find limited editions. The Skylark Diner serves the best home-cooked meals around, with friendly service and a smile. Every August, Mr. Jingo’s County Fair visits, to the delight of children and adults. In essence, Clifton Heights is the quintessential small American town. Everyone knows everyone else, and everyone is treated like family. It is quiet, simple, and peaceful. But shadows linger here. Flitting in dark corners, from the corner of the eye. If you walk down Main Street after dark, the slight scrape of shoes on asphalt whispers you're not alone, but when you look over your shoulder, no one is there. The moon shines high and bright in the night sky, but instead of throwing light, it only seems to make the shadows lengthen. Children disappear. Teens run away. Hunters get lost in the woods with frightening regularity. Husbands go mad, and wives vanish in the dead of night. And still, when the sun rises in the morning, you are greeted by townspeople with warm waves and friendly smiles, and the shivers pass as everything seems fresh and new... Until night falls once more. Handy's Pawn and Thrift sits several blocks down from Arcane Delights. Like any thrift store, its wares range from the mundane to the bizarre. By daylight, it seems just another slice of small town Americana. But in its window hangs a sign which reads: We Have Things You Need. And when a lonely traveling salesman comes looking for something he desperately wants, after normal visiting hours, after night has fallen, he will face a harsh truth among the shelves of Handy’s Pawn and Thrift: the things we want are rarely the things we need. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing
