Our minds are our tools for our greatest downfalls. The weapons it has can unwind ourselves from great people into insignificant little insects that humanity no longer wishes to see or hear. Sometimes our pasts are too much to over run, escape is but a failed dream, and we find ourselves in a place we cannot describe. Simon Henriksson is such a person, living his life out in Cawdor Mental Institution for the rest of his life. No fate, nor holy grace can get him out. But someone can get in, and somewhat a little bit too close for his liking. Her name, is Ivy Lauren Hunter and change follows her footsteps like a tiger to a hunt. No matter how much he wishes to deny it, it can be his only salvation from the pit he has dug for himself.

Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli
143 parts Complete
No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series. New chapters will be posted on Fridays for as long as it takes to tell the whole story. For Wattpad only, chapters are split up by individual scenes-if you would prefer the whole chapters in single pieces, please visit my homepage or another site where I post this story, thanks!

In American rating parlance, the narrative would be rated PG-13 (except for language), but some have noted the story can get pretty dark on occasion.
