In the town of Eastloche, a mysterious wall was built, dividing the town in two parts. On the North side of the Wall, there were the people who lived by the rules of Mayor Christopher- the ruling body of the town- and on the South side? No one knew. It was all governed a secret to the people, all except his siding military force- of whom he marked, personally, with a snake tattoo.
Being the one and only ruling faction of the town, Mayor Christopher set a rule that was to be followed by all North Wall residents; that no one under any circumstances was ever to breach or go near the Wall. Lana Grey wasn't about to let any rule stand in her way though, when she watched helplessly as the Mayor's snake-armed men took her best friend to the mystery- and torturous place- that is what they call The Other Side.
Lana was going to get her best friend back, even if it meant going against every rule the Mayor has set and siding with people she would never have trusted before. What she didn't anticipate though, was that she was about to step into something bigger than she would have ever imagined, and fall for a man who she knew she should never in a million years trust. Will she get her best friend back before it's too late, or will the secrets of The Other Side destroy every hope she has left of ever saving her?

Lost In Lucidity
"Last night, I had a dream the world ended. Half the population disappeared, and unfathomable eldritch beasts shambled out of an unending darkness." In a world with no sun and bloodthirsty creatures roaming the all consuming dark, the only places still safe are the small compounds that managed to get walls up before all came crashing down. Now, life is simple. Stay inside the walls, and you'll stay alive. It's not relatively easy anymore, though. With no one for company but each other, danger lurking only a few yards away from their homes, and half of their loved ones swept away in a mysterious event known only as 'The Vanishing', the morale of the populous is at an all time low. It's only getting worse for some, as their cities that are supposed to be providing for them are failing to do so. Survivors Wesly and Valentine aren't content with this, however, especially since Val's mother desperately needs life-saving medicine that the city just won't send. With no other options, the two journey outside the wall to study the monsters beyond, selling the information they find to the city in exchange for their support. While dangerous, they manage the task fine until one journey out they stumble across a disturbing, gruesome revelation that reveals not only more about the city, but the end of the world as a whole. As the duo begin to pull on the thread and tangle themselves slowly into its snare, they begin to realize there's a lot more to this apocalypse than they ever could have imagined, and that the horrific beasts they've been studying might be the least of their concerns...Complete
