Sojourn Stories

Former soldier and now doctor and prosthetist, Zaïna receives a rather special job offer, she will have to bring out old skills to succeed in getting out of it. She thought she had laid down her arms forever... The story follows the chronology of Overwatch as well as possible and almost perfectly. The present characters belong to the Overwatch license and do not belong to me in any way. Except for some characters that are from my imagination. The original story is written in French and is translated by me, be indugent. So don't be surprised if you don't understand some sentences, there might be some French expressions I translated unintentionally, so do not hesitate to tell me in the comments so I can correct everything!

Sometimes being a fish out of water can be a good thing. Only two things can happen. Either one adapts to the environment or simply peters out from intractability. Enter David Lansing, a half-Filipino call center trainer whose normal life took an unexpected turn when he suddenly woke up and is presented with visions and a spirit guide to boot! Why was he seeing these things? Who is the Guide and what did he want from him? Peppered with appearances like the Tikbalang, Aswang and even the White Lady of Balete Drive, all part of Philippine folklore and urban legend, the story traces David's existential journey of becoming; from his naive acceptance of the world to his burgeoning skepticism, and his acceptance of what his life is and how it could be. And while he’s at it, another Guide presents himself to him, one with a more pragmatic approach and outlook to the world of the supernatural; the same world that David is finally learning to accept and participate in. But who is the better Guide or is he better off trusting his own instincts as he embarks on his journey to find that supernatural promised land; a place where people like him are common and living the most normal of lives; a place that is known only to a few; the magical community of the Dark District. ------- The complete story is part of the Darkest Dreams bundle under #StrangeLit and published under BUQO.

Playing the Overwatch 2 Halloween co-op mode The Bride of Junkernstein made me write this fanfic.

Gordie is a young man sent on the Ramble, the generations-old journey to adulthood for the Colluchians. The elders of his community imparted tremendous wisdom to him on the way to his journey, hoping that this would keep him from straying away. He was to be the leader who would bring peace and joy to the Commonwealth. He was on a path to gain mastery of great power, as ordained for him by the deity Colluch. But Gordie swears off his god and places himself at the center of his own world. During his subsequent exile, he is pursued by the evil Ayersi, the ugliest man from the distant city of Aenocyon. In his sojourn, he is taken under the protection of three holy poets, who point Gordie to the road of redemption. Overseen by the ancient Crag the Crow, this story is a philosophy of life. Pain, suffering, forgiveness, redemption after a fall. These are timeless existential lessons for a mad modern world.

A small solace from the entropy of mind. An elysian, a salvation for wounded hearts. A place where the tender souls embrace the beauty of anonymity and speak out their pain, fear and bliss. A cry, a voice behind the veil, a request or perhaps, cleansing of mind. A place where we acknowledge the thoughts that we have been shrouding from the world outside. A saga of our different lives but similar pain. A diversity in our similarities.

People have said that they didn't need Overwatch. That they can't be reliable. I may have been a new recruit when it shut down. But I still remember all the goods things they've done. They didn't deserve to be shut down, especially have the Pedra's act. And look around, there are more crimes an crisis everywhere. They need people like Overwatch. Even if they don't show. It's time for people to step out of the shadows. Time to redeem themselves. It's time, for Blackwatch. A better Blackwatch.
