Rows of teeth were tattooed and carved into the skin of both cheeks with meticulous scarifications, becoming simple designs when they joined on the white-colored lips; the eyelids, the bridge of the nose and the nostrils were black to make one believe, in the darkness, that they were cavities. It was said of them that they spoke to the owls, the birds that became nocturnal after the Crucifixion, and when they returned, beating stones together to create echoes, warnings not to look, they were shadows in front of the windows, masks of skulls that approached the glass. To pay homage to them, meat was nailed to the stable doors, wine and pieces of bread and biscuits were left.
The wild ride Still holding Celeste's feet, Elijah stepped back. He kicked back, opening the door, and came in backwards. “What did he say?” he asked Nato, who was holding the wounded man by the arms. “What did he say?” "I do not know". Celeste had a handkerchief balled up in her mouth, her eyes wide. As she was placed on the floor she let out another, long growl. Nato ran towards a chest of drawers and rummaged through it. Goetia Kneeling, he searched the ground. He grabbed the worm with his thumb Phone Number Data and forefinger and raised it above his head, staring at it with crossed eyes, his lips pressed beneath his thick beard. He stood up, his binoculars and canteen bouncing against the leather fastenings of his filthy coat, and limped towards the concrete block, holding the animal in his fist. With his free hand he brushed back the lock of hair that had ended up in front of his eye, heard a noise and turned towards the eastern entrance, at the point where the asphalt sloped away and the path became dirt and grass.
What do all these incipits have in common? The lack of an introduction. The reader is not accustomed to the fantasy world, but catapulted in no uncertain terms. Men with skull-like faces, ancient and unknown rites, a man who growls. In every beginning we are already inside the story. And we want to know more. The strategy of the incipit in media res Coltri used this technique. A technique that I prefer above all others. The times of "Once upon a time" are over, let's leave them to stories for children . Instead, let's take the reader and throw him into the arena without warning him first. The advantages are not to be overlooked: the reader will not be bored he will be hungry to know the rest we immediately get into the rhythm of the story an incipit in media res is simpler and quicker to write
