In the Garden of Prosperity

For thousands of years the people of the Mountain have carefully maintained their prosperous, peaceful way of life. Now, a growing desire to learn about the world beyond is forcing them to ask the momentous question: Can their longstanding culture survive contact with the outside?
During these tumultuous times, Korinv faces a much more personal question: Does she have the fortitude to form a lasting relationship with the compelling, capricious woman who’s leaving on an expedition across the desert?

Wielder of Abundace

Could centuries of science, literature, and cultural beliefs about magic really be wrong?

But now that she’s seen for herself the devastation she was meant to repair, she’s faced with uncomfortable questions. Are the alien tribes she was sent to serve simply deluded by bloodthirsty revolutionaries, or could Mir be wrong about her own mission?

Lazy Goth

"No one wants to be the weird kid who dresses weird too. Alt fashion is often an accessible alternative to fashion, letting us ‘weirdos’ enjoy clothing as much as anyone else — if not more."
