A collection of three novellas.Descent Into Darkness...Dan needed to hear Mary's reassuring words, but those nagging doubts still clung deeply onto him. The banter from his colleagues at work eroded his confidence but Mary was right. She must be right. There was nothing to worry about.... Big AmbitionsIt all started with two best friends watching a bodybuilding documentary on the television. One of the friends, Dereck, was spellbound by what he saw and was hooked then and there. He vowed to himself that he would become like the man on the television. He would have that lifestyle. He would sacrifice everything and do anything to look like that.Witch Trial... "Then she started sprinting to the edge of the field before the 'Lovers walk'. I could see on this path that there were two young people running to get out of the storm. The witch pointed her arms forward before yelling 'Beelzebub, bring down the tree. Beelzebub, bring down the earth.' As she shouted I saw the hilltop where the tree was tear apart. It was as if giant invisible hands had torn the earth apart. The tree came crashing down upon that young farmer he had no chance. Then the witch screamed out 'Beelzebub close her mouth'. We know that since then the young farmer's wife has not been able to speak. Then I knew that I had witnessed the work of the devil through that young witch. I was totally shaken but then I ran back into town to fetch the constable."(Part of Mrs Dougal's testimony).
