In the modern world, a wizard can use a smart phone. He can also play video games, or eat sandwiches, just like anybody else. A wizard, however, can also fight demons and do things that other people merely dream about. Eldrian is a clever and imaginative young man trying to be the best wizard he can be, all while trying to hide from those who seek to catch or kill those like him. Follow the wizard Eldrian and his friend Kevin as they mass a band of colourful characters-some wizards and some not. They combine their talents to take down demons, fight off the government's spellbreakers and wizards of their own, and develop reality-bending spells. They'll even travel to fantastical, far-off locations. Hell isn't so bad once you get used to it. This serial is generally light-hearted with comedic elements, but there's also emotional moments as the stakes become higher. Not everything for a wizard is sparkles and unicorns.

From What I gathered, The Yu-Gi-Oh Series happens across different dimensions You have Season 1 and GX Happening in 1 Reality 5Ds in another reality Zexal specifically being explained as an alternate reality Arc-V also being seen as an alternate reality So I guess this one is a reality of its own as well. Difference with this reality is that it incorporates aspects of all realities. No, more than that. It adds aspects of each reality and mixes it with the card lore written for the various groups within the trading card game into 1 story Background plot: https://pastebin.com/YgnAY45J Founding of SHC and the Dark Dimension Plot: Cornelia, the First Light Plot: S0: The Corona Project Plot: S1: Start of the War: S2: The Mechanical Angel Plot: S3: End of the Light Plot: What I'm writing now isn't the first set of this work. In fact it takes place after the first 3 planned sets. As to why I'm doing it like this, me and my friend had constantly debated on issues he believe is wrong with what I was making, which almost spurred me to create a far different story. Meanwhile another friend convinced me that instead of just tossing everything away because someone doesn't approve of some of the plot settings, write it out and post it; see what others think So that's what I'm doing I decided ill go with one of the explanation or intermediate arcs, rather than the main story. Its not to say this isn't important, but its more of a sample of what the actual work is. To this end I am a man of blatant honesty. However you think this work is, feel free to tell me, no matter how harsh your choice of words. Better harsh criticism than no criticism at all, as I'd say. Well, enjoy

**Wattys 2016 Winner!** Fifteen-year-old Emmeline Jefferson doesn't have time away from the Demons. Not a minute to say goodbye to her family, not a moment to wonder "Why me?" Every second she's not possessed is spent begging stranger after stranger for help. But no one believes a sporadic girl who claims Demons have spent more time in her body than she has. No one until she finds Dumaine. Dumaine Chartres's whole life fits in his accordion case, his friends are nonexistent, and this fascinating girl is telling him Demons exist. These things all make perfect sense. What he doesn't understand is why humans have such outrageous issues with murder. Death is natural. If he wasn't supposed to kill anyone, they wouldn't have died. Nobody even noticed the bodies anyway. In return for a break from his internal demons, Dumaine offers Emmeline help, and she's willing to receive it from anyone. Maybe this boy can finally be the keeper she needs. Maybe chasing these Demons can explain why he's so different from everyone else. Maybe this friendship can work. With a wise but demented old man, and enough determination to perturb the Demons, Emmeline and Dumaine concoct a plan to unriddle their lives. The first step is to confront the Demon's creator. But something else seems to have found the creator first. And it only looks like an Angel. Human Spines is part one of a YA dark Urban Fantasy written in a style similar to Tahereh Mafi's Shatter Me and Elana Johnson's Possession. It's the first of a series and told from the viewpoints of Emmeline, Dumaine, and their rambling but wise navigator, Hans. Through a diverse cast, it explores themes of learned distrust, fear of the unknown, and the battle against the evil inside us all, in a way similar to a Studio Ghibli film. Cover by ecclesia-
