The fires have been grouped in the up state and when winter came the fires continued attracting the attention of a group of scientist. These scientist first noticed the fires after being contacted by a fellow scientist in the region. Their goal is to determine the cause of these fires at any cost. There is many theories but the one that sticks out is not that these are natural but more that these fires are started by someone. What they don't know is they are about to uncover a great mystery and their lives will never be the same.

LAURA, a descendant of the Originators, has always known she owns this puzzle, this responsibility.

Laura's leading the effort to solve this climate crisis, with her team of global environmental, atmospheric scientists for the U.S. company, H20, Corporation. Just when Earth's temperatures are beginning to normalize, the barometer starts climbing back up. Laura believes the human key to the Earth's weather crisis, is the team's newest member, MERC. Only he's not human and he's a charismatic psychopath. Merc's a first generation Originator, who's covertly working with the Untouchables. The Untouchables booby-trapped the Earth with artifacts believed to be creations of Earth's early civilizations. These machines of destruction are responsible for the blazing heat that is incrementally destroying the Earth. What causes complications for Laura's progress is her growing attraction to Merc, oddly because he's as void of a conscience as she is.

Echoes Beneath the Stone
A group of archaeology students arrives in a remote village in Mexico for a summer project that was meant to be simple. Their task is to map a system of limestone caves and underground rivers, record measurements, and return with data for their university. At first the work feels like an adventure that blends science and travel. The air is filled with excitement and the promise of discovery. Yet the caves soon reveal secrets that go far beyond the task they were given. Deeper passages lead them into chambers untouched for centuries. Murals painted in strange colors show figures and rituals unknown to any existing culture. Carved faces stare from stone walls as if placed there to watch intruders. The group debates whether they have found evidence of a lost civilization or something even stranger. Wonder slowly turns into unease. When one student vanishes without a sound, excitement is replaced by fear and desperation. The search leads them through a spiral of stones, shelves lined with skulls, and a hall filled with bones arranged in patterns that speak of sacrifice and ceremony. They find an altar that hums with a rhythm matching the river below, and channels of water that refuse to show reflection. Every new discovery feels alive, as if the cave itself listens and decides who may pass. As danger rises, the students realize they stand at a crossroad. They can push further and risk their lives for knowledge that could rewrite history, or they can leave the place untouched and protect the secret for those who built it long ago. Their final choice will test loyalty, courage, and patience, and will shape whether the story of the hidden civilization is carried into the world or left buried beneath the stone forever.Complete

Beneath the Shadowlanders
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.Complete
