Stories

  • The Land That Time Forgot · 20 pages

    A professor looking for his long lost daughter and a hunter enter a deep part of a jungle in Africa where prehistoric life still exists (such as a Brontosaurus). The ape men that live there worship the now adult daughter as a "white goddess" but end up sacrificing her and her father to a Tyrannosaurus rex. Luckily Gorgo and his mother arrive and while they battle the T-Rex (as well as two others and a Triceratops), the scientist and the others manage to escape.

  • Have a Hex · 2 pages

    An inspector for the "Department of Markets" is tasked with going after fraudulent sellers who sell fake magical items in their shops. He encounters an old woman who sells him a good luck charm that actually works.

  • The Professor's Brain · 4 pages

    A brilliant scientist discovers a way to transfer the brain from a dying mammalian body into another mammalian body. Since he spent his whole life doing research, he was always alone and never got to enjoy life. After he dies of old age, his loyal apprentices transfer his brain into the body of his recently deceased dog. After waking, the dog acts like a normal dog. The apprentices think the process didn't work, not realizing that the old scientist is finally enjoying life as a simple dog.
