We did not kill the planet, we made it nearly uninhabitable. 

The few surviving societies of humanity begin to recover from an extinction level threat, but as their numbers grow they realize there isn't enough land to support them. In an attempt to solve this problem the "Expansion Project" is created. The Expansion Project is an attempt to rectify the population density issue by dispersing their people within livable underground spaces. With tons of materials harvested and living space growing every day, thus far, the project has been a solid success. 
Young excavator and engineer Peter McKenna is going about his business as usual. Leaving the towering streets of Littleton, New Colorado, as he and his co-workers descend fifteen kilometers down the mouth of the mine. Together they carve deeper and deeper into the Earth's crust only to discover what secrets lie within the deep biosphere unseen by human eyes.

40 parts Complete
[2021 WATTYS Winner] Giovanna joins a handsome nobleman to save a friend from an arranged marriage, but they discover a plot that may have victims of Venice's Black Death rising from their graves. * * * As a child, Giovanna Visconti learned the arts of bloodletting and elixir brewing from her father with an intent to simply support his work, not take it over. But when he falls ill from the pestilence that's been ravaging Venice for months, she reluctantly dons the beaked mask of the plague doctor. Vowing to protect her father however she can, Giovanna hides him away and sees her first patient--the handsome, but alarmingly feverish Matteo Barozzi. Although she successfully treats this son of a high-ranking official, in a careless moment Giovanna fails to properly conceal her identity. The only reason she isn't tossed into a dank jail cell is thanks to the young man's honor and feelings of indebtedness. The association between the charming aristocrat and the clever commoner should end there, but when Giovanna's dearest friend goes missing right after her betrothal to the Doge's son and amid strange reports of nighttime attacks, violent commotions, and inexplicable behaviors in the community, the only person Giovanna can turn to for help is Matteo. Together, they must carefully navigate Venice's increasingly deadly canals to uncover a sect peddling false cures and a smuggling plot involving the highest levels of government or risk the entire Republic falling victim to something even worse than the plague: the risen dead.
