Do you like horror stories?

Who watches over what you read?

I ask this simply out of friendly concern and suggest you consider pausing before you read too much further here because - like a dog drooling in anticipation by your supper tray - an invisible dog mind - Reginara, Queen of the Goblins may be lurking close by.

My warning... which I'm sure you will ignore - just as you ignored so many past admonitions by other self-appointed guardians - I lay at the side of your onward path so as not to impede your own thirsting quest to delve into such matters ...be wary, beware, be. What? How can I say it plain out aloud? - without appearing like a raving loony. When all the while inside I'm raging - Bollocks! - to such polite implorations.

Look away!

Don't read them!


Is that clear enough? Not this one or that one which you scrolled away before, or any other. Unless you are content and willing to feed her!

That's it. Your choice. Now you know.

And how do I know? How did I learn this thing? - you will only discover by reading my story. That's the futility of my warning. Tread safely now.
