Welcome to another
Sunday with Weekend Writing Warriors.
Here, writers in different genres showcase their stories with 8-10 sentences.
Join the fun and read our snippets.
Today, I’ll continue the snippet from Grand
Master’s Mate. Violet and Athanor are visiting their friend, the Black Dragon,
Ythris, on the Planet of Sythos, when the Moon is attacked. Note, the Brululians
resemble man-sized lobsters and walliths are reptilian aliens.

Emerging
under the dome of the portal station on the Moon Illoris, Violet blinked at the
confused melee of the attack. Giant amoeboids rolled over the rocky surface
like gobs of gel. One wallith thrashed on the ground, leaking blue blood from
its ripped limbs. The second wallith tore pieces from a pale green blob.
Seltos
was nowhere in sight. Violet guessed he had scouted the moon and already
returned to report to the Black Dragon.
The
Brululian Warden reared in front of its cabin in a valiant attempt to protect
its babies. Gulpah’s shell was coated in green slime and two of its thin limbs
had snapped at the joints and hung useless. Undeterred by the wounds, Gulpah’s
large foreclaw pinched into the squirming gel of its assailant.
