Sir Magvelyn's Swords
Sir Magvelyn Rathborne has many
swords – some plain, some gem
encrusted – each of them known
as Dragon’s Bite. His favourite, a
flat broadsword given to him as
a gift by the Faerie King, was
fashioned from moonshine and is
blessed with a strike-true spell.
Magvelyn later paid a goblin smith to
inscribe his beloved’s name in Old
Tongue runes on the glittering hilt.

Excerpt From the Book of Hidden Things
Light three black candles upon
thy altar and summon Sitrog, Our
Lady of the Bloody Moon. Clothe
thyself in flayed skin, tying it in place
with red cord, then trace the rune of
life upon thy breast with the blood of
thy victim. Raise thy arms and sing:
ABAZA + DABAZE + HABAZEGA SITROG +

A Tale of Two Bottles
On 17 April 2013, a bottle washed up
on the shores of Croatia. It had been
thrown into the sea twenty eight
years earlier in Nova Scotia, Canada.
The bottle contained the following
message:
"Mary you really are a great person.
I hope we can keep in correspondence.
I said I would write. Your friend always,
Jonathon. Nova Scotia, 1985."
On 17 April 2014, a plastic milk bottle
washed up on a Dublin beach. A golden
golden retriever, named Lucy, found it
and chewed off the top. The message
inside wasn’t signed. The girl who wrote
it was never identified.
