To everyone else, he is the perfect student: polite, intelligent, and on the fast track to a future he's supposed to want. But this is just a role he plays. A mask to hide the truth. At 21, he moves to the historic university city of Pécs to start his life, but he's already a ghost. He is a detached spectator in his own story, watching himself perform the part of 'The Son' and 'The Student' with a cold, clinical precision. Haunted by the shadows of a father who left and a mother he can't help but hurt, his new life is not one of freedom. It's a life of financial spreadsheets, missed parties, and the crushing weight of a poverty that isolates him from a world he can't afford to join. The city's ancient streets and bustling lecture halls are just a backdrop. His real world is the four walls of his sterile dorm room, the bitter static of phone calls home, and the pages of a black notebook-the only place he is honest. He watches, he records, and he asks himself one question: How long can you perform a life before you are completely disqualified from living one?

A girl named Sadie Maire Vere, who lavish most of her life reading ancient scripts, novels and such, is walking through the overgrown meadow, collecting antiques, and maybe visiting the art museums or gallery for knowledge.

The clerical cloak given to him to confine him to the ways of The Moon God instead let Festor stay invisible as he quietly grew his rebellion. Festor's hidden alliance - called L'Sunder - seeks to mix both the cultures and divine magics of the world's major cosmic deities. The time has come for him to start pushing his initiative publicly, an effort for unity he hopes will change the world for the better. Or, in the eyes of the current head of a priestly bloodline deemed near-royalty, Half-Moon Davodson Lunik the Fifth, shatter the universe's stability entirely. Influential, wealthy, and relentlessly devout, Lunik is Festor's biggest threat. Conference after conference seems to bring the two rivals much too close for comfort, threatening to expose L'Sunder out from under the radar. Much as they want to believe it, neither party is wholly virtuous nor villainous, each finding the game - and their adversary - growing more complicated the more cards they play. Festor just hopes he'll make it out with the upper hand. I'm writing this story as a teaser for my visual novel Project Grandfather Clock - demo coming this winter.
