"Black Iron" is a dark fantasy/heroic fantasy short story by David Drake. The story is part of a loosely connected sequence featuring the character Vettius and his friends —veterans and citizens of the classical Greco-Roman world who encounter supernatural, mythological, and demonic horrors. In this story, Vettius and his companions gather to hear a chilling tale concerning a magical, malevolent sword.
"The Shortest Way" is an atmospheric short story also by David Drake. The tale features his recurring protagonist Vettius, set during the days of the Roman Empire. In the story, Vettius chooses to travel along a local road that area residents deliberately and fearfully avoid. The narrative leans into supernatural horror and folklore; a cautionary tale against ignoring warnings.
