    Summary

    Mages have done any number of perilous, ill-conceived, and senseless things in a bid for power. In the grand scheme of things, the Holy Grail War is barely worth noticing. Waking up monsters that should never have been disturbed may be slightly higher on the list.

    Waver Velvet is nineteen, possessed of a grudge, a relic, and a dangerously powerful desire to forge his own path. He’s going to do better than the mistakes of the past. Because if he doesn’t, it’s probably going to kill him.

    Summary

    Wind-tossed roadblocks arranged into a crude pathway would make an inviting entrance for any desperate traveller. The sound of the stampeding waterfall was just out of earshot as boots crossed the toppled wire fence. A stop sign bent out of sorts, prickled vines hugging porous walls with vigour. A discarded cellphone. Trodden on. Broken glass doors with faint, pained moans of the eroded building frame. Audible if everything else was silent.

    Any whisper of Filgaia had been silenced for years, however.

    A bulletin board, with reminders and pictures of employees. A fire hose and blanket. A coat on the sharp edge of a cabinet. A creaked, hanging jaw swinging under a set of jaundiced, glossy eyes.

    A narrative retelling of the Wild Arms (PS1) story through the lens of a semi-modern zombie apocalypse. This came to me randomly in a chemistry class and I wanted to see the vision.

    Summary

    “Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.” 

    “Cannibalism,” I manage to get out. 

    “New word. Cannibalism.”
