[CURRENTLY ON HIATUS] Characters. They are meaningful in imagination yet trivial in reality, merely thriving in the whimsical fancies of our dreams. After all, characters live only in stories, don't they? But what if characters in books really do exist elsewhere? What if they materialize in another world-possessing their own wills, interacting with each other, and even to survive...killing each other? In the midst of chaotic confusion, a boy wakes up in a place called the Tower, learning that he is character just like any other. To survive and climb up, he must fight, he must kill. But as he grows, as he faces betrayal, as he learns to live and love and hate, he begins uncovering a secret of the Tower. A dangerous secret. Highest Rank: #214 in Fantasy

At the close of the 'Destruction' - Mother (Terra) had finally had enough. No more would the humans be allowed to slaughter one another pointlessly. No more would they take the rest of her, and her other children, down with them in the process. Thus, she called forth Terra Natus (Earth Arisen): "They came from the trees, they came from the water, from the rocks, from the plants. Mother Terra calling her other children out from centuries of standing idle, martyrs of a dying world, to fight back. Some saw them it is said, saw them walk right up out of the water, saw a boulder unfold itself and stand, just as you or I might. One second a mighty tree, the next? A being, arms stretched up to the glorious sun. (And) No sooner did we see them, than they were shooting us down. We were finally paying for our sins, and for the sins of our parents, and their parents before them...It was a heavy debt to pay." Generations later, the Terra Brothers, or Protectors, haven't even seen a human near their borders in so long that rumors of their extinction has spread. Rumors which are about to be put to rest in a big way, when Isa (the human) and Salix (the Protector) find their paths inescapably interwoven in the pursuit of eliminating a threat to Mother - the likes of which hasn't been known since the age of human dominance. But what is it? And what could have been so terrible as to drive Isa within the Protector's borders in the first place, knowing she would most likely be killed? Furthermore, how will Salix and Isa's relationship develop as they come to find, much to their surprise, that the other is not exactly like what they had been lead to believe? Come inside and find out! * Copyright © 2016 by Nathalia. All rights reserved. * Original and epic cover art by @Neenerst - I mean seriously, look how she captured all the elements of the story.

It is the year 2108. Earth has become too polluted, flooding has become too dire, and mankind too numerous, for humanity to remain on their home world. Space colonization has begun, with the first space elevators, a burgeoning Mars colony, and expansive dome-cities on the moon. In order to bear with the drab setting and alien nature of their new environment, virtual and augmented reality has come to the forefront. Where once, generations huddled in front of a glowing box to play video games for hours, now Earth's first generation of orphans explore rich environments of virtual and augmented reality, using neural implants. AIs have spread throughout the system, beginning the efforts of terraforming the various worlds within their local neighborhood, and sending mankind's eyes further and further out beyond the Kuiper belt. Then, the light from a nearby supernova engulfs the Solar System. Nearby Spica, a binary system 240 light years from Earth, has exploded, producing more light than an entire galaxy full of suns. Mankind and AI's telescopes turn outwards during the event, seeking new plutoids and dwarf worlds to colonize, and discover something ominous. A rogue planet three times the size of Earth, approaching at high speeds through the Oort cloud, scattering comets in its wake. At first, mankind plans to arrange a rendezvous with the strange rogue, but signs that the world was once inhabited combine with strange radio signals coming from the world itself to indicate that the rogue is something more than just a dead rock hurled out from its sun, possibly something far more valuable--or more deadly--than a new planet.
