Cold-Blooded Witch Curses a Home
“A woman in a black dress and hooded cloak emerges from the snowy night and approaches the stone-flagged building. Half of her form is cast in shadow. Despite her stark-white hair, she appears youthful and beautiful.
She peers into the window, eyes full of malice as they fall upon the infant sleeping within. She lifts her hand as if to caress the face of the image of the child, but when she gently places her fingertips on the windowpane, white lines of frost crackle out from her hand.
The frost overtakes the glass, obscuring the entire room in a frigid veil.”
Illustrated by Dean Spencer, written by Megan Garner, edited by Davy Kent.

Fog-Cloaked Graveyard
“Fog obscures the ground, the pliant earth sinking beneath each hidden footstep. The headstones rise above the cold and clinging veil, acting as bleak beacons to guide you. The efforts of a caretaker or groundskeeper are absent here.
The grass and shrubs are overgrown, with vining plants crawling up the pedestals of crosses and the feet of angels.
Some headstones are broken, their messages to the dead interrupted, like a breath stopped short.”

A wave of frigid air heralds the arrival of a hunched and skinny blue-skinned giant, its sinewy limbs tipped by digits taloned in white. Patchy gray fur covers its forearms, shins, and nethers, mantling the bent shoulders and head as well. That head is blocky and bestial, with…
a sloping forehead, beady black eyes, and an overlarge, slack-jawed mouth filled with fangs and framed with curving tusks. The troll snarls and stretches its long fingers with a crackling akin to standing on thin ice.
