The Dead City - Tales from the Last Continent
19 parts Complete The Dead City is the story of a young teenage Mynder, a descendant of escaped bioengineered slaves on the cusp of manhood, who lives with his family in their hidden village in the heart of a swamp they call the Green and has never quite fitted in with the others, not as well as his twin brother Asan who is a somewhat accomplished hunter like their one-armed mother. They live in fear of their technologically-advanced creators, the Firstborn, and in awe of the gods that still walk the last continent of man.
When their village is destroyed, they decide to make the desperate journey to the forsaken Firstborn city, across the desert of Koh (death), to find and wake the sleeping chaos god in the belief that their freedom can only come from chaos. To succeed would mean uncovering the secrets surrounding the quest and the scribe's connection to the god, kept by his mother, and that of the death of the city to which they travel, kept by the Firstborn.
