If you wish to see the actual description, please feel free to read it from the "Dawn of the Forgotten". This book is meant to please those who complain about my ridiculously long chapters. I proclaim now that not a single chapter part here will go beyond 2000 words and no less than 500, so look forward to weekly uploads when I get around to it! Special thanks to orchidwood for providing the young version of Almar in the art piece for chapter 1: (part 5). It is absolutely stunning!

Imagine the "Light" and "Dark" sides of "The Force" were partially-sentient extra-dimensional life-forces engaged in a Secret War in our world -- A war whose warriors consist of people recruited through infection by either the Sacred Fire or the Corruption. These Awakened have been given tremendous supernatural powers but at an equally tremendous cost. Welcome to the Secret War. Until The Corruption infected her neighbor, Hikari Miyabe's greatest concern was preparing for her high school entrance examination. But then her neighbor killed her family and infected her. When one of the Awakened arrives and cleanses her with the Sacred Fire, Hikari finds herself caught in a secret war between supernatural forces that consumes the lives of everyone it touches. This is a 4-part novella covering the back story of Hikari Miyabe, a major character in the forthcoming novel The Awakened.

There once was a legend of a being in long past With the might of the gods, but a heart frail as glass Many a folk had once gathered, many a voice in their praise Catching wind to the hillside, the king's blood a blaze For their might was far certain, like flame of a beast So the king sent his armies, and they fled to the east To kill upon prey, from father to son Until their might had lost favor, to no longer run Trapped in a cage, they were sent across sea To die in the waves, to die in what's free Until fear wakes the memory that the night glimmers a star A star of long past, singing a name we call Almar To rise from the ashes, to a world set a blaze To strike fear in our hearts, until none stands but praise

"Anna Karenina" is the tragedy of married aristocrat and socialite Anna Karenina and her affair with the affluent Count Vronsky. The story starts when she arrives in the midst of a family broken up by her brother's unbridled womanizing—something that prefigures her own later situation, though with less tolerance for her by others.

"Y-you," she stuttered, staring at the handsome man sitting on the sleek black throne, "you're..." He rolled his eyes, waving his hand impatiently and said, "Hades. Come on, say it with me. Ha-des." "Hades," Ariel breathed out, still not believing the sight before her. Every picture she had seen of the gods had not depicted Hades' beauty. The god sitting before her was not a crusty old man with a white beard; no, he was a Calvin Klein model. "Yes," Hades clasped his hands together and grimaced, "the God of Death and riches; that's me." Ariel nodded, still refusing to believe but knowing she had to and Hades' grimace turned even bitter, "And you, darling, will be staying with me for quite some time." ~*~ Cover: _nymphomaniac Published: 8/6/14
