Beneath Ceaseless Skies<p>Live in BCS #429: "The City of Tears" by Molly Tanzer (a new tale of Thevin Galois). </p><p>"She was not alone. The dream-city was a metropolis, densely populated with people from lands Thevin knew and lands she did not. Most of her companions on the ramparts lay insensate on the ground, crying as if their hearts were breaking. The cacophony of their wails did not unsettle Thevin. She was used to it." </p><p><a href="https://www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/stories/the-city-of-tears/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/st</span><span class="invisible">ories/the-city-of-tears/</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sff</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/shortstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shortstory</span></a></p>

AaronDavid<p>If you follow me, you have a sense of humour. If you're reading this, you're a reader. I’ve put this story online, free, gratis and for nothing, it's a twelve minute read. If you like it, maybe you’ll be curious enough to risk 99p for one of my short story collections. Maybe you’ll be smart enough to save some money by buying a compilation. Maybe you’ll be brave enough to buy my novel. Whatever happens, I hope you enjoy ‘Vincent'. <a href="http://aarondavid.co.uk/Vincent.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="">aarondavid.co.uk/Vincent.html</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/freeread" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freeread</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/shortstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shortstory</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/funny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>funny</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/pleaseboost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pleaseboost</span></a></p>
