Dystopian-fiction Stories

[ONGOING STORY] A nation can imprison a man, but not an idea. Set against the backdrop of a futuristic Philippine society ruled by the iron fist of an ultranationalist-fascist regime, a group of masked individuals are drawn together by circumstance and tragedy. Hidden behind their identities and haunted by their pasts, they become unwilling witnesses to a nation unraveling beneath tyranny, corruption, fear, oppression, decadence, and silence. As unrest spreads and the regime's grip begins to crack, they find themselves caught between obedience and resistance, survival and conviction. Bound by loss, disillusionment, and a shared longing for change, they must navigate a world where truth is suppressed, dissent is punished, and hope itself is treated as a threat. But beyond every mask lies a truth waiting to be uncovered, and some truths are powerful enough to awaken the people. A novel in memory of a long-forgotten revolution.

In the city of In the city of Elend, emotions have been illegal for forty-three years. The government distributes Nullen through the water supply, a compound that keeps its citizens in a state of permanent grey calm, and children are raised in Accord Institutes designed to monitor, suppress, and report any flicker of feeling before it can spread. Seventeen-year-old Maren Voss has always been a model citizen. She drinks her water. She files her expressions. She measures a crack in her ceiling and tells herself it means nothing. But when a four-second fragment of forbidden music leaks through a projector in her Archival Studies class, something in Maren shifts, something the Nullen can't quite reach. And when her classmate Cel taps her foot in the silence afterward, Maren realises she is not the only one. What begins as two girls quietly stopping drinking the water becomes something far more dangerous: a network of teenagers learning, for the first time, what it means to feel, to grieve, to hope, to rage, to love, in a world that has decided all of those things are the same as death. The Bureau is watching. The compliance towers never sleep. And Maren is beginning to understand that the most revolutionary act in Elend isn't a weapon or a manifesto. It's a song.

In a world where human emotions are no longer seen as virtues, but as ancient synchronization protocols, a highly intelligent predator begins to see people differently. Not as souls.

But when an unknown intelligence begins evaluating him with impossible precision, he is forced to confront a disturbing possibility: he may not be the observer. He may be the subject.

Greener Grass is a science fiction short story of 5,600 words by Michael J. Sullivan, author of the fantasy books of The Riyria Revelations and the Riyria Chronicles. This short story was the seed that grew into his full-length novel, Hollow World published in April 2014 by Tachyon Publishing. While the ideas are similar, the two worlds depicted are quite different. In Greener Grass, the world was created to provide a "twilight zone" twist.
