	Clouds Over Cogham: Part Six Then, finally, the sound of cruel laughter. “Well, it’s no matter, my sister. That was only plan A. There’s always more to be done. And, if I remember correctly, you’ve already thought up a rather fun backup plan, haven’t you?” by theschizophrenicpunk
	Tribulations of a Quest Sceptic: Part Two But ultimately, she had no clue why she, the original quest-sceptic, was heading off to Neopia’s most eerie realm in the dead of night, in order to do the bidding of a temperamental Zafara. by anjie
	Desert Requiem: Part Three Sayidah considered herself well-travelled for her age, but her experiences were but a speck of sand in the desert compared to Khalid's. He and Jazan had spent most of the last two centuries exploring new lands, only returning to Sakhmet every twenty years to ascertain the availability of princesses. Khalid narrated some of the adventures they had gone through, some which sounded so incredible that Sayidah would not have believed them had it been anyone else telling the tale. by kalnya

"Dreaming" by reiqua
"Ooh - Shiny!” Alisia pounced excitedly on the glinting object beside the footpath that had caught her eye. When she straightened up she was holding a bottle of blue sand. “Look at how the light reflects off the glass!” she enthused, “it’s so pretty - I'm gonna add it to my collection!” Darza, her brother, was somewhat less than enthusiastic about this prospect. In fact, the vast majority of people failed to quite share Alisia’s fascination with her collection of shinies. Even her best friend Bela had been known to complain about sitting and looking at shinies for hours on end. Darza pointed this out to his sister. “Seriously,” Alisia complained, “I don't know what Bela’s problem is! It’s not like my shinies smell that bad!” Darza grinned at her. “Ahh, but we can fix that!” Alisia rolled her eyes at him and gave him a playful shove that set him off balance. The red Kau lost his footing and began to stagger around in an overly dramatic fashion, apparently trying to regain his balance. Alisia smiled as she watched his antics. Her brother could be such a clown! But then, something bright caught her eye. And it was hurtling right towards her brother at breakneck speed. “Darza!” she screamed in fear, and dove forwards to pull him out of the way. And not a moment too soon.
