- A man with no memory... - A woman with strange dreams... - An orphan girl, all alone in the world... Three lost souls, brought together by fate, journey across the Christmas landscape of New York City, seeking answers to an unfolding and ever-growing mystery, watched over by Sister Regina, the head of the Convent where they are staying. As they begin to find answers, as they begin to discover more and more clues to Lauren and Brinn’s identities, something stalks them - an ancient and deadly Evil from before the dawn of recorded history. A clock is ticking now, and they must solve the mystery of their origins and who they are soon. For it is not just they and everyone around them who are threatened; the entire fate of humanity and of two worlds is in peril, unless they find answers, and find answers soon. What you hold in your hands is the beginning of an apocalyptic fantasy. It is also a complete story with a definite ending, in 4 Books, or Seasons: Exile, Return, Rebellion and Armageddon. Each Book is divided up into multiple Episodes. Book One – Exile, is being released in 6 episodes, with Hearth : Episode 1 in this installment. More to follow in the future. We have been told by readers that New York is like another character in the book, and I don’t think it’s going too far to say that the first Season of Hearth is, in part, a love letter to my old hometown and the place of my birth. So I invite the Reader to come in, stay awhile and get comfortable. If you like what you see, maybe you’re willing to go a little further. Let the story, and those who struggle against impossible odds, draw you in and carry you away - to Hearth!

A young (both 17) boy and girl bond over a situation that could have had an unfortunate ending. Note: There was a six page (google docs) limit for this short, so I had to get creative with my writing. You'll notice that Dylan's portion of the piece is written entirely in present-tense, whilst Olivia's is in past-tense. This gives a necessary separation of voices in the story, as there wasn't much space (or time, for that matter!) to create deep character descriptions and personalities.
