"Abraham Lincoln once said 'Of the people, by the people, for the people.'" I let my voice finish vibrating through the air. "They may not be of the whales, they may not be by the whales." I stopped to take a deep breath, because I felt my voice ready to crack. "But they are for the whales."

Lyria Daniels-a budding reporter, she embarked on a breathtaking journey on the sea, filming the Sea Shepherds as they waged war against anyone who killed whales. She's stuck with her film team, a redhead, an Asian and a gender-fluid captain on the boat Neptune for an entire two weeks. A choice completely changes her view on life.

But had I really done it for the reputation?
At the start, yes. Now? I stared out of the window, the setting sun illuminating the sea in a beautiful kaleidoscope of pinks, oranges, yellows and purples. I couldn't imagine why I'd aimed for the fame in the first place.
They are for the whales. My voice echoed. And so am I.

Season 3 of Eliona's War
***
When Seth received a new virtual reality video game from his uncle, he wasn't expecting to get swept up into a whole new world called Eliona. As it turned out, Eliona and its people are far more dangerous than Seth could ever have imagined. There is a real consequence to playing this game: it's changing him, and it might not be for the better.
Now that Seth/Severance knows the truth of Eliona, there's no going back. Eliona is dying, and in order to save it, he needs to beat a very difficult dungeon before anyone else does. And on Earth, things are even worse. It's come to light that Eliona is leaving a mark on its players, and suddenly, everyone wants to be involved. Players find themselves with a target on their back, and Seth? He might just have the biggest one of all.
Too bad for them, he's done running.
