The Wanting Well

There’s a man out there in the desert. Cracked lips, dry tongue, eyes like dust. He says all he wants is a drop of water… but we both know it’s never just water. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025.

Saint Elmo

Beneath the black waters off Gallaway Bay lies the wreck of the Saint Elmo—a cargo ship swallowed whole by the deep. When diver Marcus descends to salvage its riches, he finds more than treasure waiting for him. Among the drowned crew and shattered crates lies something older… something alive. As his air runs thin and the pressure closes in, Marcus learns the ocean doesn’t give up its secrets for free. A tale of isolation, curiosity, and the unknowable depths below. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

The Small World

Simon has spent the last ten years in a hospital bed, unable to move or speak—his world no larger than the space between the door and the window across from him. When a cruel nurse gives him an experimental injection meant to “bring him closer to the Pattern,” Simon’s long quiet life collapses into darkness. What follows is a descent into the infinite, where horrors whisper in the dark and a spider offers him a terrible bargain: accept, and walk again. But acceptance comes at a cost—and some worlds are small for a reason. A tale of confinement, madness, and the thin line between faith and fear. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved.

Hollow Mound

In a quiet farming community nestled near a haunted hill, the children are given names. So are the pigs. And when the time comes, some of those names are crossed out. Every winter, the draw is held. Sixteen families. Sixteen straws. One red. It’s not just tradition—it’s survival. For nearly a century, the people of Hollow Mound have kept their silent bargain with the beasts beneath the earth. But this year, something is different. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

Enamel

Annika Truski was once known for sculpting beauty—perfect faces, soft smiles, art that looked too smooth to be human. But beauty is a lie. And pain? Pain tells the truth.
