While lack of new post might feel very much on-brand for The Void it was not intended. Apologies. The Void Gospel WILL return.

While we wait, let us ponder upon the fickle and passing nature of existence vs the monolithic, unchanging, timeless qualities of inexistence.

Sneak peek of things to come.

We are not living. We are not of this world. Not anymore' - the creature facing Randolph spoke in a hissing whisper.  Its mouth - or was it a snout - lacked any lips that would conceal rows upon rows of teeth sitting in its blackened gums. It had no eyes, but the empty eye…

When a tree falls in the forest and No One is around, No One will hear.

No One will witness its fall with its No One eyes. The fall of the tree will remind it of the reason it's been put here, on this blue and green planet: to witness the coming fall of Some Ones.

Its No One…

Henry’s father was long gone before he died. It felt like it to Henry, anyway. He was there, but he wasn’t there for him. Not when Henry was learning to tie his shoes at 7. Not when he had to learn how to shave at 16. He wasn’t there for Henry when a much older woman took his…

“The reason people think it’s not easy to take a life” - the stranger’s words cut through the silence so unexpectedly that it made Kira flinch - “is because most of them don’t realize they’ve already taken one.” His voice was calm, collected, and could've been soothing. Her eyes…

“History of humanity” - Alexei Mullins began his speech - “is a story of denial and deception.” All heads turned towards the balcony, upon which the celebrated architect had appeared. “Today, I stand before you not just as an architect of structures. I have designed for you a new…

For 28 nights King Edgar would dream of the hooded figure with mirror eyes. The dreams were full of low, commanding whispers and distant screams. Whether they were screams of pain or ecstasy, he could not tell. The mirror eyes gave out nothing. The stone hall in which they met…

'Man, how you can play this game, it creeps the hell out of me' - Giorgio peered over Rod's shoulder. It was hard to say how much mockery was hiding in his solemn tone. 'Come on, dude' - Rod replied. 'It's Pac-Man!'

Ever since his dad put the arcade machines in the lobby of the…

Sandra couldn’t stop laughing. The millipede that forced its way into her mouth and was now making its way down her throat tickled her with its many bristle-like legs. She wondered why wasn’t the gag reflex kicking in, but somehow all that she could feel was waves upon waves of…

Harrison was falling. Whatever he imagined death would be like, it wasn’t it. It was like someone opened a chute underneath his bed-ridden body, and he fell down through it and kept falling further through blackness.

An explosion of sight and sound knocked him out of his numb…

'Come closer, girl' - grandma's voice sounded sweet as maple syrup, and it felt every bit as viscous. Her fever was finally gone. She was out of bed for the first time in weeks. 'What's that wonderful smell?'

Heavy curtains allowed very little light inside. The room was dark.…

'Let's get it out of the way' - said the gentleman in the red, embroidered jacket who wasn't sitting in a chaise longue in the corner of the room just a moment before. 'You have not summoned me here. You've attempted to do so in your hubris and shortsightedness, but you've failed…

There was something wrong with the light, something about the way it dispersed on the walls never reaching the corners of the room. The difference was subtle, but Matt noticed it on the very first day in his new room. Or should he call it a cell?
