Cuenta la historia de mi gente, que hace casi cien años, un científico llamado Nolan Keir, apenado por el llanto de su hija cuando su gato Gus, de apenas cuatro meses, murió, invirtió todo su tiempo y dinero para encontrar una manera de saber cuándo y cómo morirían nuestras mascotas. Según creía, el conocer la fecha exacta de la muerte nos ahorraría muchas lágrimas y pesar.
El proyecto Caducity empezaba a ser una realidad, pero como suele suceder con estas cosas, lo que en un principio fue un experimento aislado, terminó por convertirse en una práctica habitual en humanos.
Ahora, en el 2098, todos los padres conocen la fecha del ocaso, como se llama a nuestras últimas horas de vida, de su hijo recién nacido, al igual que ese hijo, al cumplir los dieciocho años, puede escoger entre la revelación o la omisión de su muerte, si es amante de lo imprevisto.
Todos sabemos cuál va a ser nuestra fecha de caducidad y todos parecemos estar conforme con ello.

In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, magical beasts, and superhumans that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.

Between The Crystals

58 parts Ongoing

The aliens kill every human they catch, or in rare cases, put trackers on them to discover their hidden villages. When Natalie is caught in an ambush, she is unexpectedly released. But there is no tracker. The Saursunes have an entirely different motive this time. *** Run. Don't look back. When Natalie is trapped in an alien ambush, she is unexpectedly released. The first human to ever be let go. The Saursunes invaded centuries ago, and everyone knows that getting caught is certain death. Natalie is confused but grateful to be alive. As a porter, one of the few humans with the rare ability to teleport between special crystal formations, she must leave the safety of her desert village every day to help gather food. When other villages increase their raids on the Saursunes' farms, the aliens retaliate by hunting down every human they can find - except Natalie's group. Instead of trying to kill her and those helping her, they bring them food instead. Is it a trap? Or something else? Natalie isn't sure, but one thing is certain: the Saursunes aren't done with her yet. ------------ Updates are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 11-1pm MST. The story is completed offline, so no worries about it being abandoned!
