Welcome to the new age. In the year 2090, players can enter a Lord of the Rings-like world for themselves. Jump into Tralheim. Join the revolution. Luke, a recent university graduate, Noelle, a high school dropout, and Tetsu, a sixty-five year old retired businessman have formed a fellowship, one built upon both companionship and trust. Together, their adventures have taken them from one end of the world to the next. After two years of play, they have conquered Tralheim and retired to a quaint seaside town. Luke prefers the quiet life, while Noelle is still haunted by scars from her past. And Tetsu? He’s just a perverted old man. Life is good. Unknown to them, something sinister moves in the dark. Something that will sunder the very rules of the game. Evil has its eyes on Luke, plotting his destruction from the Gray Tower. New companions, old enemies, and a talking wolf: Luke, Noelle, and Tetsu are in for one hell of a ride. They just don’t know it yet.

Phoebe has been encumbered with a task: finding a husband. Of course, it was a rather common expectation for a young woman of the early 1800s. However, Phoebe's husband-to-be had additional requirements. First, the man should be willing to give his name to a woman who decorated her conversations with stutters. Secondly, the husband-to-be would have to sacrifice his previous pursuits and instead continue her father's plantation. Thirdly, the said-husband must be of liberal-mind and use the plantation as a ruse to free slaves. Surprisingly, this task may not be as herculean to a visiting English-man.

[COMPLETED - ONLY MINORLY EDITED] ******************************************************** Greek myths - true or false? They should be false, and to 16-year-old Sophie Claire, it's never crossed her mind that they aren't. Until one day in History class when her teacher spends a day on Greek mythology and something strange starts happening - her friends and classmates begin to tell myths about certain Greek deities with frightening precision. And for some reason, she's began to feel a certain affinity for Persephone, the Greek maiden who was kidnapped by Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, and forced into a marriage with him. This isn't some coincidence or freak dream, she later finds out from a host of strange individuals who claim they're from Olympus, the grandoise home of the gods themselves. She is actually a modern reincarnation of the goddess Persephone, and she's not the only one. A few of her classmates also happen to represent the gods and goddesses from popular Greek myths, and the fact that all of them are present means that something monumental is about to happen. Something like being the girl to change Persephone's future, to break the cycle of kidnapper and victim - all by passing a trial. It won't be simple, she knows, and she's not quite that eager to take it up, but from the moment she found out that she was Persephone, there was no way to back out. She should've known, however, that dealing with all powerful, immortal deities wasn't going to be easy. They've got a few secrets and personality flaws up their sleeves, and they could be deadly. More than deadly - murderous.
