Nito Takuma traversed back to his hometown of Beletrie Island away from the bustling city, reeking with frustration and burnout from all the work and labor he had to do in his school as the class president, without anyone noticing his 'Magic'.

Throwing out the acceptance letter to a prestigious school, he entered the crumbling Chanpuru High School with a sense of solitude, and with his written- now printed novel, he slacked off for a moment. 

"It's finally finished..."  he said, as he was lost in the island's beauty.

Luckily for him, before he could dissolve along with the sea breeze, a dozen sprites leaked out from him and transformed into birdlings, waking him up as he heard his grandma's voice,

"Surely...your novel, your magic could change the world, my little Nito."

An experiment to keep myself writing and a bite-sized pieces of my next project Mukashimukashi, consists of 50 words per chapter, if you find this story and/or this format entertaining I will be very delighted and try to bring more in the future!

WATTYS WINNER When her fiancé ends up in a coma and his secret mistress, Halley, shows up, Mary feels like her world is falling apart. What she doesn't realize is she's actually falling in love...with Halley. ***** Eight years after a traumatizing accident that killed one of her loved ones, Mary Kincaid is about to marry her childhood sweetheart when the universe yanks the rug out from under her yet again, leaving her fiancé badly injured and in a coma. Of course this is when his secret mistress shows up, a beautiful person whom Mary should by all rights hate - so why does she find herself inviting her to stay in the spare bedroom? She soon learns that sometimes the person you're looking for comes when you're not looking at all. Content and/or trigger warning: This story mentions violence, addiction, and childhood trauma, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 150,000-200,000 words]]
