Reym, a young and mute pilgrim, perishes in the dunes of Saradon. A final, pallid breath escapes his mouth, as his life, along with every aspiration and every grand wish, comes to a crashing end. That is how it should have gone, though the powers that be felt it necessary to keep him bound to the mortal realm, like a puppet dancing on a string. Now in the service of his 'savior', the demonic entity Malphas, flanked by a mysterious and kindly puppet, Reym must continue on the quest he had undertaken before his untimely demise: to travel across land and sea to the holy city, the Pale Palace, and rid his body of the foul curse that haunts him. On his path he encounters trials, friends and foes, as the world peters out and it too speaks its final words. Will the countless tribulations along the way force him to grow, or will they break him altogether? Cover-art by Yoshitaka Amano.

Thank you for taking the time to read this brief summary, and if you decide to venture deeper into this (likely quite boring) tale, then I thank you even more deeply!

But then he opts to sign up for the Remnants of Men, a government sanctioned search for a rumoured fresh water lake beyond a radiated wasteland.

But after an encounter with a rabid gang of men suffering an acute insanity, he soon comes to understand that he is one of many discarded into the wasteland to study the cannibalistic effects of a new drug called the Sixth Sense.

In an attempt to free herself, she acquires an asset in the form of Runner and finds herself always at the edge, for if he survives it means freedom for both, but if he dies...

"I was starving. Not a soul cared. The nobles and rich do not care for 'dirt-scum' or 'drunk beggars.' Our King is sick and tired. His heir, the Prince, is a pompous, arrogant, self-absorbed fool. At least, I think so. A beggar has no chance at joy, particularly an orphan one. I am destined to a life of dirt, hard floors, cold, starvation, loneliness, and judgement. I am kicked and scorned; insulted and teased; cold and broken." When Rose meets the Prince her one desire is to show her wrath. Forced into servitude for an act of rebellion, Rose discovers the Prince is not all she thought. Despite their pasts, wounds begin to heal and hearts begin to open. But not all are supportive of a friendship between a Prince and a servant... The Prince wanting to change; the beggar needing to heal; a danger racing towards them. The fight against her heart is about to turn into the fight for her life. (Book #1) Highest rank: #1 in Christ!!!
