Children's Games: A Story of Modern Consequence

64 parts Complete Mature

In a world consumed by war, where nations clash over the responsibility of a fatal disease, Emilia awakens with no memories. She has a scar on her wrist, a tag around her neck, and a cryptic mission laid before her, and the only allies she can trust are a group of fellow soldiers who may be hiding the key to her forgotten past. She is told to keep her head down and continue with the mission; terrorism. Emilia's fractured memories are threatening to reveal a dark secret. Beneath her own identity lies a truth she cannot escape. Their mission: to infiltrate and destabilise an enemy they're beginning to suspect may be on their side. Their enemy? Australia. In a place where betrayal can shatter the world, they're forced to play a dangerous Game with devastating consequences. As the line between puppeteer and puppet blurs, Emilia must uncover the truth before they all become casualties of a war where the only way to win is to be the last one standing, even if it means allowing innocence to be killed in the crossfire.
