Xenofiction Stories

Zurich, 2050. Some diseases have no cure. Chimera was supposed to change that. Dr. Christophe Blanchard spent five years keeping it contained - one key away from a medical breakthrough that could save millions. Then the questions started coming from people who don't ask questions unless they already suspect the answer. He made a choice to protect his work. It cost him everything he understood about himself. Now something is spreading through Europe - and the people it touches aren't sick. They're changing. Alicia and Julian never asked to be part of what's coming. But the bond growing between them may be the only thing more dangerous than the virus itself. Not everyone survives the Awakening. The ones who do were never meant to.

The hollowed took over everything. Now the five main clans must choose between sharing their resources or survival. With the water contaminating at an aggressive rate, fewer kits, EmberClan cutting ties, and Wispkit's persistent visions, one question remains: Does EmberClan have a future?

Oh, to be unreachable... After a decade of reconstruction Flammin had gone through to become as powerful as those who destroyed her home, the Relic Queen Nike takes the former living paintbrush to complete the final stages of her training: flying. For a small moment, Flammin had an epiphany of Nike, the divine living trident and mentor who bonded with her throughout the rigors of her transformation into what she is now. This short story is part of my worldbuilding xenofiction project, World of Relics. This project encompasses a world of living objects and relics that came to rise shortly after the Inversion Event, an event that killed both mortals and their gods, stole their souls, and remade them into living objects. You can see more about this project here: worldofrelics.carrd.co Since this is the first story I published online, critique is greatly appreciated. Thank you! Altostratus will be also uploaded to Tumblr, Writersky, RoyalRoad, ScribbleHub, Deviantart, and World of Relics' WorldAnvil. Look for my name: Penwrythe!

UNFINISHED- WILL NOT CONTINUE As the two piece together more information about this cat through the diaries and journals he left behind, they uncover more about the past-and find clues that lead them to believe his mysterious disappearance may not have been a coincidence after all...

Sue, a lowly comp-sci student with no knowledge of Pokémon, must persevere within their world after waking up as a Gardevoir. With the locals and their language completely alien to her, even the refuge she receives feels uncertain. Local deities invading her dreams and using her as a pawn don't help, either. As Sue uncovers this world's scarred history, her god-mending task becomes increasingly clear, as does its difficulty. Despite that, and her limited grasp of her own powers, she keeps trying, for her goal remains the same. To survive and make it home, no matter what. ------------------------------------------ Xenofiction Mystery / Slice of Life, told from the perspective of someone with no Pokémon knowledge at all. Major themes include self discovery, xenophobia, overcoming guilt, and forging one's own fate against the powers that be.
