* CURRENTLY ON A HIATUS * "Live for the people. Wait for morning." In this world, Xenophobia, also known as the fear of the unknown, is different. The people fear "the Unknown," which is a place home to a terrifying dream or nightmare no one would ever want to have. Everyone loves dreams - from soaring inhumanely high in the sky to twisting and bending what we all assume is the impossible. But, there are always those dreadful nightmares that we all loathe. They come to haunt you in your deep slumber, and, just like dreams, anything and everything are possible. Nightmares - the deepest, most appalling thoughts in your mind - come alive, as soon as your consciousness dissipates. You're vulnerable in your sleep, whether it be in a dream or a nightmare. Every night at exactly 10:00 PM, life in the city of Kanix comes to an abrupt halt, and everyone enters a dystopian, chaotic universe known to mankind as the Unknown. People die in this odious hell of a nightmare, and all they can do is wait to see if morning comes. There may be many creatures lurking in the shadows from dusk till dawn, but the Unknown is home to one beast in particular: The Grim Reaper. Every injury, from a mere scratch to a broken bone, is real. Everything that occurs...is real. And it's all because of the otherworldly beings that surreptitiously control the city and its people. The population of Kanix refers to them as "Karmaniacs." They are puppeteers that control each citizen, and they enjoy every moment of death, heartbreak, and vulnerability as if it were a game. After all, they don't experience fear. (cover made by the lovely @TorissaNikole)

I am the one that lives in the darkness, overcome by death and despair. I am the one that hides in the shadows, warning others of this eerie air. I am the one that feeds on agony of lost souls that refuse to leave. I am the ghost of Lavender Town, as you and I continue to grieve.

Who knew a fight between Kyogre and Groudon would cause such destruction? Everything he grew to know and love is gone-destroyed in the remains that used to be known as Hoenn, a region of peace and equality. Now Shade, a Poochyena, is left only with the thoughts in his broken mind-the sounds of an echoing silence. (Cover by @FallOfRempire)
