Interview with the author
Q: So this is the second short story connected to The Darkness of the Womb. How is it different from "Clean Hands"?
A: "Clean Hands" was much earlier in the timeline of the Archetypes. The Archetypes actually don't even appear in this story (Though, I have a nixed chapter on my blog (http://knighttakesrook.blogspot.com/2015/09/deleted-preface-to-new-short-story.html) if you want to read it. This story contains the main protagonists of The Darkness of the Womb. It's a story about anxiety and it's more metaphysical than "Clean Hands". There's a lot of dream theory.
Q: Do you need to read The Darkness of the Womb to understand this story?
A: No. Like "Clean Hands", it's a standalone story. But it does help if you read both "Clean Hands" and The Darkness of the Womb to have a better understanding of these characters.
Q: Last question. Will there be any more short stories in the realm of The Darkness of the Womb?
A: Not that I can think of, but I'll never say never. I'll probably do a short story for my third novel, The Interdimensional Subwoofer before I do another one for The Darkness of the Womb.

Acting as a prequel to the events of The Darkness of the Womb, this standalone story centers around the Archetype, Instinct. His mission is to journey inside the mind of a dreamer in order to influence them to make a crucial decision that will affect the rest of history. But dreams are unpredictable, and Instinct finds himself on shaky ground once he enters the dream world. Will he survive his mission, or will he find that even he, the embodiment of mankind's Instinct, can't even handle the world of the subconscious?
