Speck of Spice

The long, adventuring nights keep getting longer as Misty and Roland search out rumors of shadows and laughter. Added to her woes is a head cold of supernatural proportions larger than a trucker's appetite. She shambles through her work and Roland's play, a member of the undead in nose and crusty eyes.

Their adventuring finds nothing but dust and a child's laughter, but when she begins to experience vivid dreams of tooth-decaying fantasy parks and zombie apocalypses Misty wonders if something isn't wrong. Roland comes to the rescue with only one choice to help her, but she's not so sure she wants to trade in her humanity for a souped-up existence with strings attached.
