❝ beware of those who enter the forest. ❞ They are creatures that born from the sublime and haunt those who wrongs them. It was the written rule the Nascherein was built upon, but to Leon Kiesinger, it was much greater than the imperial soldiers could hold. Sheltered away from the war and its decaying matter, he finds himself unable to avoid death, his haunting dreams told him to follow it, to see where it would lead him to. But it comes with a price, something that calls for a ghost among trees. © arden reni 2017 ― Featured as 'Hot Off the Press' | 04.18.18 ― Wattys Longlist | 08.31.18

In 1745, Miss Mercy Savage is left an orphan after her notorious, money lender father is killed in a mysterious fire. His infamous riches, and extensive library, are all left to her under a single condition. She must leave Boston for the town of her parents' origin, a small New England hamlet snug in midst of marshland and swamps. There she becomes the ward to her father's only childhood friend, Cyril Bawden, at his sprawling brick home filled with books and shadows. But there is a dark figure haunting her steps, one that is seeking what is due to him, something her father promised years earlier. Inspired by the short story by Washington Irving, "The Devil and Tom Walker"

When you are 16, you go through a coming-of-age ceremony, and a die is rolled to determine the guardian beast, which comes out of the Gehenna Gate, that you are bound to, based on the face it shows. But what if the die lands and balances on its edge? They are called the Invalids: pariahs, outcasts feared for the unfathomable potential within oneself, feared for what could be, and feared for what they would become, if they were part of society. Lee Soon Weng is one of them—but, when the Gate opens, nothing came out. Or so he thought. cover by: @project-nd
