As We've Seen is a series of weekly short stories about the lives of various important or unimportant people in the face of numerous wars, in the face of false gods, and the looming collapse of mankind. Whether that be a young veteran working in a rundown alleyway bar in a shady district. A group of divine youth attempting to survive and make the most of their eventful (and traumatizing) journey to reclaim their thrones as they navigate the ways of teenage life on the front (and labs). Or a know-it-all wannabe journalist sticking her nose in all the wrong places just to know the inside scoop on everything.

Re/Imagination: Fate of The Chosen
In a world devoured by lustful wilds, dangerous entities, and an ever-hungrier elite, power belongs only to those who can afford to waste it. As technology evolves, the gap between heaven and hell widens - not in the skies, but on the streets. Soven, a quiet yet sharp-minded youth, lives below the poverty line - in a world he no longer sees as human, but infested with devils wearing mortal skin. While others lose themselves to the chaos, Soven watches. He studies. He understands. His goal is not gold, nor glory - it is to restore heaven on Earth, to resurrect a world of angels. But this dream makes him a threat. Corrupted powers, hidden factions, and even his own inner darkness will rise to challenge his vision. One mistake could destroy everything. Yet perhaps, just perhaps - one right step could awaken the divine. This is the story of Soven and those who walk beside him. The story of a man against the abyss, and the question that burns brighter than all: Can one soul, in perfect alignment, change the world?

He awakes within the walls, in a place he has never seen. A girl named Adalyn finds him and takes him on an adventure that explores the ins and outs of the world, centered around the city he had protected all of his life: Prevnaar Tribeck. Cato will learn who his parents are, what the city he has protecting is actually like, and what its like to live a normal life in the world after the war-a world that is almost entirely broken to pieces.

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
