    Summary

    Sapience is a precious gift.
    Like any precious thing, it is rare. Sapient species are scattered distantly across an infinite chasm, left to bridge the gap between their neighbors with eons of evolution and technology.
    There are many, like those who man the 01 Osteclara, who dedicate their lives to the search, and yet generation after generation their searches bear no fruit. Sapient life has not been found in a long, long time, and as time stretches on, hope for finding new Life dwindles.

    Captain Diia'ti of the 01 Osteclara crash lands on an untouched planet, stranded and separated from his crew. Stuck on a vengeful, uninhabited planet, there is little else he can do but try to find shelter.
    He finds instead what he had dedicated his life to searching for.

    Kai Yamagata moved into the forest to get away from people, not to be stalked by aliens. You can imagine his frustration.

    Summary

    Life has never been safe for a Borrower in a world governed by humans. Viewed as evil omens, any power-bearing “Fae” find themselves prey to black market circles where their fates are drawn to the highest bidder. And sometimes, the winners prefer to place them into the ring and hedge their bets even higher on a gladiatorial fight against something much, much worse.

    As is the fate of a pair of escaped siblings, surviving in the woods by the skin of their teeth. But when evading their opponent proves too challenging, it may take deciding between trusting the owner of a nearby cabin or trying to outrun an enemy that can’t be killed.

    But the tenants of that safe haven have one damning condition: they must reveal themselves to him first to be granted shelter. In order to make peace with the present, it may take unraveling the horrors of the past and the entwined destines between them all to save who still remains of all Borrowers, Cryptids, and Fae - and perhaps even the very forest itself.

    When on Borrowed paths, some things cannot be returned.

    Summary

    Almost two years after rescuing a man at sea, Melanie embarked on a journey to help Henry return to his homeland. Struck by a storm in open waters a week into their voyage, her sailboat is wrecked and herself and Henry wash up on a distant shore. The good news: Henry is home, surrounded by his people. The bad news: To Henry, and everyone else here, Melanie is over fifty feet tall.

    Rescued by a small military force known as the Eastern King's Watch (or Eastern Coastal Watch), everyone is forced to deal with the situation at hand. With tensions between the lands of the Vogunti Nobility and the island country of Hostenia nearby, Melanie's presence creates a risky new dynamic politically and militarily. Will she find a way to exist among the people of this place without strife? Will she ever be able to return home?

    [Depictions of violence, some strong language, mention of nudity and suggestive themes. Inspired by the works of Jonathan Swift and those inspired by Gulliver's Travels and similar media. In progress, hoping to update weekly. Working Title.]

    Summary

    Maverick had a run-in with a Giant only a few months ago while in a Giant city for a business trip. He was about to die, or worse, but that wasn’t that bad. What was really traumatizing was watching that giant get pinned to the ground, their face shoved into the concrete of the dark alley, nose audibly cracking as it’s broken by a familiar, usually friendly, face.
