A spiritual, mostly fictional adventure, which takes place in both the 3rd and 4th dimension . . . and perhaps occasionally in the 5th. Under the umbrella of Mother Earth---School of Learning, Freewill Zone---the story, rather than looking at us as Souls (though of course we are) looks at us as though we are Developing Souls. Cleaning house. Cleaning up our act. Upgrading. Two of the six main characters have an opportunity to defeat death . . .

CRUX
At least 1% of the teens in Asphodel are estimated to be what, for a lack of a better word, we might call 'heroes'... some find their calling in dreams, others take portals to other worlds, and perhaps most dangerously, a few face sinister, supernatural evil within our own version of Earth. Whatever their quest, when it's all over, these people, known as Extras, tend to have trouble reintegrating into a decidedly not super world... and parents and siblings have trouble readjusting to their changed loved ones. Class 63 may offer a reprieve from the tumultuous outside world, but as tensions rise within the classroom, the Extras of the Class of 202X may find that the hardest battles are fought after the war is over.Complete

Recalls of Surrender
Alchemy has always been a key to understanding the universe, yet it has often been dismissed as mere superstition. The truth seared through my veins like scorching heat, igniting every cell of my being with a searing, uncompromising judgment. I sacrificed everything-my strength and sense of identity-chasing after an overwhelming purpose. Duty and conviction waged a war against a primal yearning for freedom, unleashing a maelstrom of emotions that threatened to tear me apart. This internal hell fueled an insatiable, maddening lust for vengeance, obliterating my moral compass and propelling me toward utter destruction. Only when I made a final decision did the fundamental principles of morality seem to slip through my fingers like grains of sand. Each savage blow against the oppressive system left me questioning: am I a righteous crusader, or a monster consumed by hatred? The poisonous doubt gnawed at my mind, suffocating my thoughts with insidious whispers. Yet, I found the strength to silence them. With fierce determination burning in my veins, I vowed to break free from the chains of oppression or die trying. Fear would not hold me captive any longer. As I teetered on the edge of life and death, I couldn't help but wonder: would I emerge victorious or succumb to the relentless wheels of fate? The answer lies shrouded in the mists of an uncertain future, but one thing is irrefutable: win or lose, every decision will ignite an inferno of change. This cataclysmic revolution will raze the old world and herald the birth of a new era. In this cosmic roulette, even the most steadfast warriors can turn to dust in the blink of an eye. Therefore, are you willing to participate? Given that there always was, is, and will be war. Hope stands stronger than fear, yet anything is possible when darkness lingers. It is the deflection of accountability and guilt. Yet when all seems lost, trust that the butterfly knows where the water flows.
