The town of Calamity Falls was a city with a unique history behind it. Starting from the remains of the 'First Calamity', an event in which a meteor collided with the planet of Terra long ago, exposing a wellspring of sacred energy from within the planet's core. As time passed the ancient people later known as the Calamity Natives settled there in an age of peace where the people became 'at one'. Displaying a use of supernatural abilities later became known as 'Magicks'. Over the span of centuries, the Calamity Natives encounters with conquerors, tyrants, opposing threats, and the people fighting amonst themselves, among other things, eventually led the great civilization into a downfall; yet still, the sovereignty of Calamity Falls and as a result, Wisconsin was kept was intact throughout the ages. Decades after a time in history known as the 'Silver Age' the present day Calamity Falls exists as a capital city within an alternate Wisconsin. In it is the story of Vincent Vega, his friends, and a relationship with his supernatural ex-girlfriend; Veronica. After being cast to an underworld called The Narrow, Vincent travels the dark depths in search of his way back home to the world above. (TL:DR: main character looking for revenge fighting his way out the underworld.) This is the rough draft edition and not the final version. Parts of the story are subject to change. cover art by Kenni Henry.

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.
