    Trouble seems to be just that (see title of post). You see I have just inspired by a grand title, it would truly be sin to not immortalize it's glory with a story of its own. Alas, my mind is void to any 'good' storyline that would fit it's demanding criteria. As I browsed on my browser I recalled a helpful community calling at the Boards O' Magic(k). I thought then that you may be able to think up a plot worthy of the titles majesty. What is the title you ask? Very well I shall entrust in you my secret. The title is Last Rose In A Desert Garden. Amazing, no? Reply soon.

    Sincerly, GaNgStA

    Aye, sometimes I'm like that--creating stories/books on the whim of a good title. I like it; it's very nice! I'm thinking that perhaps the story lies somewhere within the title itself. The rose being among a desert could perhaps entail to some symbol for a person being surrounded by corruption but he or she rising above it or perhaps just raving mad at it and wanting to do something about it? Some kind of dystopia as the setting? And it being a garden means someone is making it or someone is trying to cultivate it or whatnot. That could be symbolic to the antagonist--in this case an all-malevolent one that's pulling the strings from above (since the “Garden” is his), and naught but the "Rose", the protagonist, remains in defense. Sounds fitting for the fantasy genre, indeed! Then again, sounds like lots of possibilities out of that title, though, and that's just two.
