Unraveling Worlds. Top Story - March 2025. Content Warning.
It's still a struggle for me when I think about how significantly everything changed and the reasons it all happened. For the longest time I spent every day imagining the 'good ol' days' where things were “normal” and life was... “good”. I never realized how conditioned I was, how conditioned everyone was, to the so-called “normal” days of life. When 'The OB's' came, it was a nightmare for the world. The delicate balance of life was shattered and the beliefs of many were completely destroyed. I remember that day like it was yesterday, and for a long time I saw it as the beginning of the end. I now realize it was only the end of what we ‘knew’ and the beginning of truth. The things I remember the most from the 'before' days seem so deprived of reason as I think back on them, but back then, it was what... was.

Fifth-Dimensional Phantom: The Reckoning. AI-Generated.
The Phantom's War Begins The rift pulsated with chaotic energy, a swirling abyss of deep purples and blues, as monstrous figures crawled forth from its depths. Their forms twisted and shifted, defying the very logic of space and time. Some had elongated limbs that stretched impossibly far, while others had eyes that blinked in and out of existence. The air itself trembled at their presence, reality struggling to accommodate their alien existence.

The Fifth-Dimensional Phantom. AI-Generated.
The sky was unusually clear that night, and the stars shimmered like diamonds embedded in the heavens. For sixteen-year-old Ethan Carter, it was just another night in his quiet apartment on the ninth floor of a rundown complex in Brooklyn. His mother worked late shifts at a nearby diner, leaving him alone most nights. The sound of sirens in the distance was nothing new, and the occasional car alarm breaking the silence of the city was simply part of life. He had grown used to it all.

Sneak Thieves
At the top of the ornate temple stairs, thick-carpeted hallways branched off in opposite directions, and Ides veered right. He hadn’t seen anyone turn that way in a while, but his attention had been diverted for a decent length of time. Treading with intentionality, he followed the hallway as it unrolled before him in the dim yellow torchlight. Up ahead and closer to the wall, he caught sight of pawprints in the carpet. It was Oda, and as silent as she was, the prints appeared as if by magic. But if she was leaving marks on the carpet… He glanced over his shoulder. Deep imprints followed his progress. Great. He had seen no other leonins thus far in Gullwing, his prints would be hard to miss. But that was a problem for later. They were coming to a set of towering double doors.

Glass Winter | Chapter VII. Content Warning.
Figures materialised on a white horizon, some two hundred yards from the mouth of the cavern. From this distance it would be impossible to make out the trench wall of snow concealed by the blizzard, nor what lay behind it. By the time Sevt and company were seen and directed to the encampment the winds had shredded enough, and the huskies were too weak to stand. Quin had shielded Aurora behind his back from most of it while his own face bled, and Sevt suffered a similar, albeit graver, injury while leaping behind the rest with a shard of the wrecked punt as a cane.

Echoes of the Forgotten
Echoes of the Forgotten A Journey Through Memory and Regret The rain poured down in sheets, casting the old town in a cold, gray haze. The streets were slick with water, the cobblestones reflecting the dim glow of street lamps that flickered weakly against the storm. In the heart of the town stood a crumbling mansion, its once-proud facade now covered in ivy and years of neglect. The windows, dark and empty, seemed to stare out at the world with an expression of quiet sorrow.

In the past six months, Emily had gone through a major transition. She went from the typically tragic East side girl who was extremely attached to her older brother to a more confident woman who was getting to know her family, new and old.
