Earth has fallen. When the planet crosses its final climate tipping point, temperatures rise, crops fail, and billions are forced onto the move. Diplomacy gives way to ultimatums, then to war. From unassuming laboratories to streets drowning in heat and hunger, a fractured world stumbles toward its final reckoning. As famine and conflict spread, international order dissolves into violence and blame, and armies march north through ruins chasing a future that no longer exists. Yet amid the despair, a radical plan takes shape to move a fragment of humanity to the red sands of Mars. As Earth burns and the heavens fill with refugees, one truth becomes unavoidable: the future belongs only to those willing to sacrifice everything. In the chaos of the apocalypse, a new kind of security service is needed to enforce order where nations have failed. From the ashes of Old Earth, the Sunguard rises. Scorched Earth is a sweeping hard-science epic about collapse, survival, and the cost of choosing a future when the present is already lost.

1971. A country is being born, and a river is keeping score.

Told through multiple voices and grounded in real history, this is a story about language, survival, and the small decisions that shape nations. The river does not judge. It remembers.

Left Behind is a haunting journey through the corridors of childhood trauma and the bittersweet ache of migration. When the doors of the past slam shut, who is left on the platform, and who is trapped on the moving train? Also available in Persian/Farsi.

They tried to break me. Locked me up. Branded me a traitor, a rebel, a troublemaker. But they forgot: Truth doesn't live in laws - it lives in the heart. This is the voice of someone they tried to silence - but failed. Who chose exile over betraying himself. Who lost everything, except his voice. And now, that voice speaks. "I'm not a hero. I'm not a martyr. Just someone who refused to stay silent." Slam poetry based on a true story - about political persecution, survival, inner freedom, and how sometimes, a single word can save a life.

Before the war. Before the ruins. Before the city learned the sound of bombs. There were two strangers. She never smiled. He never asked why. But one evening, at the call of Maghrib, she offered him a date for iftar.

Indigo Yumi, a humanoid refugee from a war that ended over 50 years ago, was summoned to the Royal Family's palace. She is the last female of her kind, family and friends killed long ago. Or so is believed... Kujo Kou was stolen from his family ten years ago and sold to the Royal Family. He has served them enduring every hardship of a half-breed manservant, protecting the secrets close to his heart. They were once needed, now despised. Treasured, now tossed to the pigs. Given the highest respects, now sold as servants and slaves. All under the midnight sky.

More than 60 million people are currently fleeing conflict or persecution around the world. Due to their race, religion or nationality, these people's homes are no longer safe places to live and their governments no longer provide them with protection. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) works around the world to provide refugees and internally displaced people (IDPs) with everything they need from psychological care to lifesaving nutrition. We set up hospitals in refugee camps, we help women give birth safely, we vaccinate children to prevent epidemics and we provide access to safe drinking water. Here, some of our teams share their stories.

Rui Lin spent most of her life hiding away from who she really was. She'd done a decent job going undetected by the Earth Kingdom for years: never firebended, never used her real name, never even acknowledged the war happening outside the walls. She would've forgotten her true identity all together if it wasn't for the nagging feeling in the back of her head... the yearn to use her gift freely. But that facade began to slip once Rui Lin met a scarred boy: Lee from the tea shop. 「Prince Zuko x OC; Book Two: Earth & Book Three: Fire」 // vaguely canon with some divergence

From childhood to young adulthood, I searched for a place that felt like mine in a world that had already made up its mind about who I was, long before I ever spoke. I learned to make friends, to lose them, to smile while leaving them behind. I chased belonging, even when it meant shaping myself into someone else's outline. I fell in love for the first time-quietly, foolishly, completely. I tasted rejection, betrayal, and the aching weight of secrets, especially the kind you're forced to keep from the people who raised you. I lived two lives: one that looked like a dream from the outside, and one that felt like a quiet storm from the inside. This is not a story of answers, but of questions that followed me from girlhood into the fragile years of almost-womanhood. It is about identity, shame, defiance, longing-and the invisible work of becoming who you are, when no one gives you the space to begin.

When my thoughts gets dark and trashy, i'll treat this like a garbage can where i can throw it away.
