Holes in the World
If the wizards of the guild could have seen the recent changes to the pattern of fires dancing across the surface of their world, they would have been dismayed. Something unheard of was happening.

Mana watched them, hiding behind a large rock near a cave only a few dolphin lengths away.

Romance
Author's Note: This story is based on the unlikely pairing of two friends of different sexual persuasions. The names of the characters have been changed to protect their identities, and a liberal dose of literary possibility has been applied to fill in the gaps as to how their romance grew and blossomed. Enjoy the telling.
