In which the weight of solitude weighs heavier than any stone.

A modified short story from a young mind.

• • • 

Axel's life was at times unsteady, but safe. That's the way he liked it; calm, unbothered.

But when his brother takes him on a boat trip aimed for the frozen tip of Alaska, a terrible turn of events leaves his world upturned-one might even say... capsized.

As he find himself cold and alone on a frigid island, his initial instinct is to simply... give up. It's something he's always been good at after all.

But will the shadowy remains of a brotherly love and the traces of an ancient life on the island be enough to force him to survive? To fight?

After all, there is no limit to the dangers when you're a castaway.

120 parts Complete Mature

Living nearly four hundred years apart, two brave young women born of the same soul face the harshest trials neither would have ever expected. Whether imprisoned by corrupt leaders or stranded after a severe storm, this island proves to be a test of strength. * Between the two stories, the past and the present collide and each helps fill in the blanks to the other as they learn more about themselves and their history. Things escalate fast as they learn to live in their new realities, and enemy's from the past find their way back into their lives, returning with the chaos of corruption and misguided ideals. She may have grown between lifetimes, but no matter how hard she tries, some things will always stay the same. * Sometimes in life, you lose everything familiar, only to be forced to change and become someone new. You can mourn the loss of everything you knew, but in the end, it is better to accept and face it as your new reality. Would you choose to lie down in fear of the unknown, or would you choose to Thrive?
