Living for centuries is a reality only in the mind of a dreamer. Immortality is a figment of a young child's imagination. Magic is what scientists believe to be a tale spun and wound around the ring of truth now known as "science". •-•-• Historians and scientists have spent centuries digging up truths and tossing away old myths and legends. Multiple humans have believed they found the answer to some of the world's most intriguing puzzles; why humans can't float, the reaction between to different chemical compounds, the cause of rain and lightning, you name it. Ahh, humans. Such innovative yet sometimes disbelieving creatures; always thinking there is a logical explanation to the world's unnatural phenomena, always thinking there's an answer to everything. Give them something more powerful than they - a creature they couldn't control - and you have pure chaos. When faced with something illogical or more powerful than themselves, humans turn into something you wouldn't believe: Pure monsters. They kill what they're scared off without even knowing who or what they were facing. They attack without reason and wish to have control over everything. Sometimes I wish I don't so heavily rely on them. My name is Republic of the Philippines, formerly known as Las Isla Filipinas. Human alias Isabella Cruz. My health and life are determined by the state of my country - the state of the humans living there. It can't be helped. We rely on each other greatly and all I have to do is keep them safe with the wisdom and power I posses. No matter how flaw-full humans are, I'll always love them. That's the good thing about being human, you can't hate what you can't love. But you can fear them. •-•-•

An intimate fantasy tale, told in the stylings of an epic Asian drama, inspired by sweeping Chinese tragic story-telling, and dressed in a fictional fusion of Far Eastern mysticism and elements of steam culture. Turn the silk veil on a world forbidden from common eyes where children sail airships across the sky, a young emperor faces the tattered remains of his empire, a warlord stands on the brink of total conquest, and a gifted young boy embarks on a remarkable odyssey of triumph and sacrifice. Terr hardly knew the incredible future that awaited him when, for the first time, he laid his eyes upon the ether, a mysterious force visible only to a special group of children who are endowed with the divine ability to levitate airships and change the very will of the sky itself. Like all those who shared in his supernatural talents, he would be thrust into a secret world steeped in oriental traditions, be revered by monks and priests, sold by eager merchants, and abused by a rebellious military, lead by an ambitious warlord that would seek to unite all under heaven. In his sadly fallible, yet all-too-human journey, he would face the corruption of the Imperial Courts, be thrown into banishment as the servant of an exiled son of the Imperial Family, and eventually suffer the terrible horrors of a world war, which threatens to end all he holds dear. But as Terr and his dying country careen into the depths of a world torn by vengeance and prejudice, he would come to discover that even a humble child of the sky can still change the course of fate. SKY OF PAPER is also available for kindle and other mobile devices in its original chapter format on Amazon Kindle via the following link: http://goo.gl/B0Sp14
