Well that was awful…in the way a horror tale should be. Clever use of magic.

Great idea, but too much of the story felt like a cop-out. With all the build up for what a monster the prince is, to have the protagonist refuse to detail the most heinous crime he committed just feels like a let-down. Then there's that ending...

This one is all tease with no payoff.

People are always so quick to coo over children. So innocent, they simper as they press the screaming babes to their breast. So helpless. So pure. They forget that wolves are innocent, too, that the wild dogs savaging the family kitten, itself once a thing inclined toward toying with broken-breasted mice, harbor no cruelty in their ribs.

Oh wow this was good! I wish it was longer though.
