*NEW UPDATES ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE*
In a dystopian future set far across the land of Arixona, lie the sixteen Precincts, The Commune and the Labyrinth. Every year, one Martyr from each Precinct is chosen to compete in The Parables - a competition like no other. Set in the scene of a Grimm's fairy tale, each Martyr must try to conquer the challenges that lie ahead of them. The challenges that lie in the Labyrinth.

In the Labyrinth, there is only a path to guide you to the finish and only one can become the victor. Either win or get trapped. Get trapped, and you lie vulnerable to the creatures of the Labyrinth, lurking in the shadows ready to pounce upon their prey.

The 99th Parables. Eight boys. Eight girls. 

The tale of Hansel and Gretel is about to be retold with an epic twist.

Game of Ash and Bone by kullman

In a dystopian future the unlucky are brought back from the dead to compete in the deadly labyrinth for a chance at redemption. The Game of Ash and Bone rarely has a good outcome, with most contestants falling to fellow players, or the monsters that roam the labyrinth, a live streamed spectacle for the New Order's elite. Cosmo Nyx comes back to life with no memory of who killed him, but that shouldn't matter considering he's about to fight to the death in a game that he suspects has long since been rigged. Can he trust his fellow contestants long enough to get out alive? And will his own dark past somehow interfere with his chaotic present? Trigger/Content warning: some upsetting sequences including peril. Some strong language. Some adult themes. Mention of sexual relationships. Somewhat gory blood violence. Mild crude humor.

Within These walls. by SavannahSmiles17

When Rylie wakes up in a mysterious cage with no memory of who she is or how she got there, she's thrust into a strange and dangerous world known as the Glade-an enclosed community surrounded by towering stone walls and a labyrinth that shifts every night. The boys who live there have their own rules, their own secrets, and one glaring anomaly: Rylie is the first girl ever to arrive. With fragments of her identity slowly surfacing-a silver necklace bearing her name, a gnawing sense of familiarity with the Maze-Rylie must navigate the uncertainty of who to trust, the hostility of some Gladers, and the growing mystery surrounding her arrival. Why is she different? What is the Maze hiding? And why does her presence feel like the beginning of something none of them can control? As friendships form, alliances shift, and secrets unravel, Rylie discovers that the Maze is more than a puzzle to solve-it's a test of survival, and the clock is ticking. The answers lie deep within its treacherous corridors, but will finding them cost Rylie everything, including herself?
