In a world where silence is law and beauty is a crime, one boy dares to remember the music.
They called it the Silence Doctrine-a regime built on the ashes of sound, where color is contraband, and creativity is treason. For years, Rowan has followed the rules, keeping his head down and his thoughts quiet. But when his mother, a secret artist, is taken for defying the ban, everything changes.
Haunted by her memory and drawn to the fragments of a forbidden past, Rowan begins to see the cracks in the doctrine's perfect silence. With the help of Max, a reckless friend with secrets of his own, Rowan discovers an underground resistance-fighters who believe rebellion doesn't need to roar. Sometimes, it only needs a whisper.
As Chancellor Rhys tightens his grip and the streets grow darker, Rowan must decide: stay silent and survive, or risk everything to ignite a revolution with nothing but brushstrokes and broken songs.
A haunting dystopian tale about art, memory, and the quiet power of defiance.

Under the guise of unity, the regime enforces Prism Theology, extinguishing individuality and personal faith.

Amidst this bleak landscape, the resistors emerge. United by their faith and the rejection of Prism Theology, they gather in secret tunnels beneath the city, hacking the oppressive laws and building an alliance of unlikely allies. As tension escalates between the King's enforcers and the resistors, a spark of rebellion ignites, culminating in a battle for the soul of the kingdom. The resistors' journey is one of discovery, defiance, and sacrifice. With each chapter, their fight against the King's tyranny unveils a deeper layer of oppression and a yearning for true freedom. As the struggle reaches its peak, the Glass Worldwide Kingdom stands on the precipice of change, and the resistors must decide whether they will be the architects of a new era or succumb to the shadows of the past.Complete

ECHOES OF THE VANISHED
Once, this world was painted in hues of green and blue,alive, breathing, and free. Now it lies cloaked in dust and sorrow, so pale that even the sky weeps in pity. Where wings once danced across endless skies, not a single feather dares to fall. The colours of life were stolen and those who took them, know their guilt too well. But isn't that the rhythm of life itself? To fall, to bleed, to rise again? Life was meant to be free wild as the wind, untamed as hope. Yet now, that life flickers...its final light trembling beneath the weight of despair. Until they came, the "saviours," wrapped in golden lies. They promised colour, promised salvation, but in the dark, they only snuffed out more stars. And just when the world's last song was about to fade life defied its own ending. It gave birth to something forbidden. Unnatural. Unwanted. Unbreakable. They were the echoes of rebellion souls forged in silence and fire. The world would tremble again, its nights filled with screams of the dark for the light these Unnaturals would ignite. For they were no longer just outcasts. They were "Revolutionaries" rising against the shadowed throne of a corrupted order, against the lies that chained the truth, and against the hands that silenced every voice that dared to speak. And through their defiance, the world would remember, that even in the deepest dark, light is born from those who refuse to bow.
