Summary: Eryx wakes up in a pitch-black room without memory of who he is or how he got there. Now he has to figure out how to escape the many rooms, and their inhabitants, of the House.
Notes: This is a serial weird fantasy. I’ll post as soon as the next “episode” or chapter is ready both here and on my weird-weird fantasy site, http://dark.chiaroscurohouse.com. Since this is a work-in-progress, it is also a rough draft, which means I may need to go back and tweak things as the story progresses. I’ll update when I do so, generally with notes indicating what changed and how affects things, so you don’t have to reread earlier parts.
Credits: Room (c) 2015 Jodi Ralston. Cover design by Jodi Ralston, with the image of the room by Bonnybbx/Pixabay and the grey texture by geralt/Pixabay.
As of Feb. 16, 2015, 5 parts posted. Part 4 tweaked. Total of 9,549 words.

(Cancelled) Polaris Garden
Original release: 2020 Two paths stretch before Jora as he awakens in the hospital without memory nor any known records: on one, a doctor wishes to help him recover his memory; on the other, a scientist wishes to do the same. However, on their quest for the truth, not everybody has his well-being in mind as they discover the reality of his situation puts their own goals in danger. A combination of Science Fiction and Fantasy that embraces the bizarre, and is wrapped in mystery with some aspects of horror. 2020 Author's Notes are available in the comments. I highly recommend reading the chapters first! 2024 Author's Note: This story has been cancelled, and is due to be rewritten. Many aspects may likely change in the future, though. I originally took down this story because I disliked the universe I'd set up as well as the execution of the story itself, and intended on doing a reimagining. That second take came and went, burning myself out over struggles to pace it well thanks to its highly unusual and experimental structure. This story was also taken down to prevent some of the events that occurred later in it from spoiling the latter parts of "Redwater Riot." That said, I feel like it would be a good idea to rerelease this story as a sort of museum work, a way to look at what my writing was back then and how it has changed over time. I don't intend on finishing "Polaris Garden," though I do intend on a rewrite in a later "Imperial Reach: Awakening." Something much closer to what this was than what I'd done before. I hope you will all join me in this journey as my writing grows and changes over time. Thank you. 2025 Author's Note: Imperial Reach: Awakening coming Q3 2025.Complete
