    Summary

    Put that way, the prospect of just one more game doesn't seem all that bad. It seems… really nice, actually, one more moment of leaf-dappled shaded and golden sunset, of cool earth and warmth clinging to her skin. One more moment of Gem in her life before a long, lonely winter.

    “Yeah, sure,” she sighs, as though she hasn't just caved embarrassingly easily.

    The smile Gem gives her in return is wide, a little too wide for them to maintain the illusion of humanity. Have their teeth always been so sharp?

     

    or: Do ghosts get hungry? / ‘Cause they take, and they take, and they take…

    or: Pearl never stood a chance against that beautiful woman of the woods.

    Everything, suddenly, is working against her. As if she’s not meant to win.

    Summary

    “Oh shit,” he wailed, rolling his head back, the heels of his hands pressed to his temples. “Shit. This is it, Richard.”

    “Shut up.”

    “It’s over. We’ve had it. We’re going to jail.”

    “Shut up.” I said again. His panic, oddly, had sobered me. “We’ve just got to figure out what to do.”

    “Look,” said Francis. “Let’s just go. If we leave now we can be in Montreal by dark. Nobody will ever find us.”

    “You’re not making any sense.”

    “We’ll stay in Montreal a couple of days. Sell the car. Then take the bus to, I don’t know, Saskatchewan or something. We’ll go to the weirdest place we can find.”

    Summary

    The gods have been forgotten and science has enveloped the nation. Gunpowder has been discovered and weapons grow more dangerous ever year. Faith in the future is lost.

    On an isolated island, left untouched by science, is a community still devoted to the gods, and a priest who believes he can convert the world back to belief and faith. On reaching the mainland, he is overwhelmed by the turmoil present across the country; rebellion in the north, cruel censorship in the south, and heartless greed throughout. Allies are few and far between. Scorn follows him like a plague, and from his only companion most of all; an exiled knight from a far away island, with a curious pet and a strong disdain for faith of any sort.

    Ricky and Tinsley make their way from one end of the country to the other, from freezing snow in the Great Mines to the fog fields of Gravehearth to the glittering lights of Arcania, and find themselves an odd cast of supporters on the way, helpful and unhelpful in equal measures.

    And Ricky begins to wonder if there is more to his own faith than he had been told.

    Summary

    “Shut up, we have much more pressing matters at hand.” Han Sooyoung whispers aggravatingly. She turns back to Dokja, schooling her expression into something a bit more amicable before approaching him. “Hey kid, how old are you?”

    “Um,” Dokja looks at her warily. “Fifteen.”

    “You look eleven,” Yoo Joonghyuk squints, feeling an unnecessary urge to feed this child.

    Yoo Joonghyuk meets Kim Dokja in the body of a child and realises a few things about their past.
