The Inkwell presents: Final Call II

We all know how the world gets in a writer's way, or the spark just isn't around when we really need it. So we fail to make deadlines, or an idea comes to us weeks later. Too late, unfortunately. But that's what this anthology is all about. Having a last chance to write a tale based on one of the prompts from the year now gone.

A Save in the Rain - Her first day in a new position on base may be more than she signed up for.
Project Cordyceps - A top-secret program is finally up and operational...but what are the ramifications of such technology?
It Cannot Be Said - To Rylan, nothing is more important than the kingdom and the king he advises. Even if he doesn't agree with him.
The Burden of Stories - Is the light of inspiration worth being consumed by darkness?
The Misplaced Book - The rest of his life hinges upon a singular moment.
All That Matters - In the end, the only thing that matters is that you are the truest version of yourself.
Dried Peaches - A small boy visits the man who looked after him.
Darkest Weakness - What is a druid with no night vision supposed to do in the woods after dark?
Dreamless - A bargain made leads to unintended consequences.
Dream, Population 1 - How does one continue when their dream is lost?
A Deal with the Devil - When does the worth of the things we love overshadow the limits of what we're willing to do for them?
