Epoch of Silence: Tenebris
In the vast, uncharted expanse of the cosmos, there exists a living, breathing entity - the universe itself. A body of unimaginable scale, where the stars are its skin, galaxies its veins, and black holes its entrails. But what happens when this colossal being succumbs to a mysterious infection, twisting its organs and altering the very fabric of its existence? Epoch of Silence: Tenebris is a visceral journey into the heart of this cosmic body, where the balance of life and death is not just an abstract force, but a matter of physical pain and transformation. As the universe's suns flicker, its heart begins to falter, and its entrails-its magnetic fields, black holes, and gravitational waves-turn hostile, warping space-time itself. The infection spreads, a creeping malevolent force that twists celestial bodies into grotesque mutations, causing planets to bloat and shrink, stars to burn erratically, and entire galaxies to collapse into nothingness. From the first eerie signs of corruption to the ultimate decision to purge all life within, the universe's consciousness awakens to the horrifying truth: healing can only come through destruction. As it begins the agonizing process of expelling all life-human, extraterrestrial, and cosmic-the universe must face the darkest, most painful choice of all: to purge its body, knowing that there will be no survivors. Through the eyes of its cosmic gods, guardians, and inhabitants, Epoch of Silence: Tenebris reveals the universe's struggle to survive, and the devastating cost of renewal. In a world where life is but a fleeting moment in the grand cycle of existence, there is no escape from the eternal rhythm of birth, decay, and rebirth. This haunting, philosophical body-horror tale invites readers to witness the cycle of creation and destruction as it plays out on the grandest scale. With visceral prose and a relentless pace, Epoch of Silence: Tenebris will leave you questioning the very nature of life, death.Complete

Everything that happened since September
Aude has a plan. Sort of. Survive business school, be more mature, keep things casual with the boy she's definitely not in love with, and absolutely, under no circumstances, fall for the arrogant finance guy she interned with in Greece. Easy. Except her year in Nantes has other ideas: There are too many parties she doesn't remember agreeing to, suspiciously flirty chats, and way too many moments that feel like coupledom, but aren't. Not officially. As friendships shift and feelings get messy, Aude finds herself growing up in ways she never planned, and realizing that the people who change us the most aren't always the ones who stay. Sharp, funny, and quietly devastating, this is a story about love, timing, and the chaos of becoming who you are, one awkward text at a time. - - - - - - - - Cover found on Pinterest TWS : Talks about mental health Songs and lyrics go to their rightful ownersComplete
