The Super Market has everything you could every want, if you can pay. Laser eyes, for the price of control. The power of flight at the cost of a fear of closed spaces. Lightning speed in exchange for a mother’s love. Everything must balance.
But these are all trinkets, compared to the real bargain: The power to never die and never grow old. As long as they love you, you will live forever. But this demands the highest price of all. You become a story with no end: Never changing, never growing. To stay yourself for good or ill forever.

The Mountain’s Shadow is now available from Amazon and Smashwords!
