What if humans evolved into entirely separate sub-species? How different would the world be? Engarde is trapped in chains. In fact, he's been a prisoner of the Colosseum for countless years now - he's a gladiator, no more than a slave condemned to a life fighting for survival for the entertainment of thousands-strong crowds. And Engarde is not alone in his suffering, either. When a new fighter appears in the ring, Engarde finds himself wedged in a conflict of raging emotions. He begins to question his purpose, his existence - and perhaps most dangerous of all, he begins to contemplate a life beyond slavery... ! - Possible strong language/graphic depictions. 10+.

"In this world, it's dangerous to be different." Agatha and her best friend have kept a dangerous secret for years. And yet, on a trip to an abandoned hospital, Agatha meets a strange character whose existence could threaten the safety of them all. After being declared clinically insane, Ruben is condemned to a life below society. But to Agatha, he seems normal - incapable of significant harm. Ruben, however, also holds a secret, albeit one that stretches far along the eastern side of the continent, right to the north - where lies a long-dead ancient city that's about to have its' silence disturbed... ! - May have mild language.
