In a world where dinosaurs never went extinct, humanity has learned to live alongside these awe-inspiring creatures, sharing the Earth in a delicate balance of nature and civilization. Nestled in a remote, uncharted region, a wildlife reserve has been established to protect both the creatures and the remnants of an ancient civilization lost to time.

Jayce, a devoted park ranger with a deep bond to the creatures he protects, has always found peace in the tranquil rhythms of the reserve. But when strange disturbances begin to unsettle the park's delicate ecosystem, he finds himself at the center of a mystery far beyond his understanding. The animals' behavior shifts, unseen forces seem to stir, and previously inaccessible ruins now appear to be revealing long-held secrets.

Along with Ava, a fellow park ranger with a passion for the ancient past, Jayce begins to investigate the ruins that hold cryptic clues about a forgotten era. Their search, however, draws the attention of Sullivan, a mysterious figure from an undercover organization, whose motives are far from clear. What begins as a quest to restore balance to the park's natural order soon unearths secrets that could reshape their understanding of the world.

As Jayce, Ava, and Sullivan venture deeper into the ruins, they encounter ancient artifacts, cryptic writings, and a hidden force that threatens the future of both the park and life as they know it. With every discovery, they are pulled closer to uncovering a powerful truth-one that could either save or doom them all.

With no fancy alien tech at her disposal, Vyrsa will need Tristan's help to return to her faraway home planet. Ecstatic to be part of a plot reminiscent of the space movies he loves, Tristan throws himself wholeheartedly into the mission. After studies of possible fuel sources turn into Netflix binging beside her endearing host, Vyrsa's resolve to leave weakens. Maybe she'll just stay with Tristan a little bit longer... Surely nothing bad could come from it? Unless the owners of the artifact she stole figure out where she went and decides to obliterate the whole planet where she's hiding just to punish her, of course. *** This is an ONC Novella using prompt #18: You step through a magical portal thinking it's the way back home, but what you find isn't what you expected.

In the quiet town of Devontae, a foreboding forest on the edge of the community is the source of countless whispered warnings and eerie legends.

As Ash ventures deeper into the forest, the path soon vanishes, leaving him lost and disoriented. The sounds of cracking bones and a chilling presence force Ash into a desperate sprint for safety.

His search leads him to Mr. Thompson, the town's historian, who reveals the symbol's connection to a guardian of the forest known as the Feralim. The revelation confirms Ash's fears and raises new questions about the forest's secrets and its dark protector. Determined to uncover the truth and lift the curse that now binds him, Ash prepares for another foray into the forest. As he defies his father's orders and sneaks out under the cover of darkness, he realizes that the forest's secrets are far more perilous than he ever imagined.
