Originally started as an entry for a competition, then i found out it was an ongoing competition. Now, i just made short stories of the cards.

You can never bury the past. Isn't that what they say? When a strange child turns up at Emily Hogan's door, claiming to be hers, Emily starts to question her own past and wonders what she could have buried so deep that it's forced her to forget everything. Having suffered from depression for years and no closer to finding out why, Emily's therapist convinces her that the child is a manifestation of herself, a cry to be heard, for the secrets of her childhood to finally come screaming to the surface. But the child insists she is Emily's daughter and that Emily just needs to remember. Desperate to recall her suppressed memories, Emily begins to dig deeper into her life to find out the truth about this strange girl who claims to be hers. The only problem is that some bones of your past are buried for a reason. Not everything should be resurrected.

The Veil grows weak. The Rising is upon us. There are possibly a thousand horrible futures and only a few bearable ones. Every choice made may very well be the butterfly that calls the hurricane. Temi doesn't want to be what she is... what she did. But the past is the past and there is no going back. Does the chance the Societies give her lead to salvation or slavery? Bill Fontaine has seen a lot, but surely there's a limit to how far the bounds of logic can stretch, right? A tween who thinks she's a queen begs to differ. Carlos is the bearer of a shattered heart. A soldier by nature, he commits himself to a hopeless battle to save a young soul. He definitely doesn't expect how far that young soul will change his life, faith and heart. Nathaniel Sparrow has both immense power and none at all. The world is changing on the dawn of the Rising, and he'll seize every chance to win power in two worlds. August never meant any harm by saving her brother from certain death. Her Society doesn't think so though. Sometimes family can get you locked up for a non-crime. Then again, family can get you out of tight situations too.
