《The Snake In My Dreams》Prologue

"--and both of you have access to the Imagination." Logan crossed his arms.
"The Imagination?" Roman asked. "What's that?"
"Can I eat it?" Remus asked. Roman looked at him incredulously. "What? It's a good question to ask!"
"Well Romulus, your predecessor, had created a realm in which anything he wanted to happen, could happen. A sort of fantasy land he had complete control over. I assume you both have access to it." Logan shrugged. "It's only logical, unlike everything else about this."
"Woah..." Roman murmured. "A place where I can make anything happen?"
"Can I even kill him?!" Remus gasped, pointing at Patton. Patton frowned, cowering behind Logan slightly.
"Not the actual Patton, no." Logan said. "But you can murder as many copies of him as you'd like, I imagine."
"Cool..." Remus mumbled in awe. "Well, can we go now?!"
"Yeah, can we?!" Roman exclaimed.
"Sure, kiddos!" Patton smiled at them, although he seemed nervous around Remus. "Just think about where you want to go, in this case the Imagination, and you'll sink out."
"Let's go!" Roman declared, grabbing Remus' hand.

Remus rose up alone, in a completely white space. He whipped his head around, looking for his twin. "Roman?!"
"Well, well, well..." A voice whispered in his ear. Remus spun towards the source, only to find no one there. "Who is this?"
"Uh--I'm Creativity!" Remus exclaimed.
A different voice laughed. "There's no way you're that bumbling oaf. He looks completely different."
"No, he does seem to be Creativity, could this have something to do with the split?" A third voice whispered.
"The split?" Remus asked.
"A rift seems to have been created, forcing all of the King's monsters on one side, and his knights and princes on the other." The first voice responded. "Are you the one responsible?"

"That depends," Remus gulped. "Who am I talking to? The knights, or the monsters?"
"Take a look at yourself, boy." The second voice hissed. "Do you look like you'd be in the company of princes?"
No. He didn't.
"A villain, you're the evil half aren't you?" The third voice giggled. "It seems fitting you'd rise up here."
"I-I'm not evi--"
"Don't fool yourself." The second voice spat. "You're like us, or you wouldn't have risen up here."
"B-But I'm not evil! I may not be the King...but I'm the...the...the Duke!" Remus stammered. "And Duke's aren't evil!"
"Okay then, Duke, let's test how good you really are." The first voice spat. "How many monsters can you slay?"
Three, large, ugly monsters appeared in front of him. He didn't have time to appreciate them, however, since they were suddenly all charging at him.
---
Remus was breathing heavily by the time he had risen up in the common room again. "Remus!" Roman exclaimed, rushing over to him. "What happened?! It's been hours!"
"Th-The monsters." Remus choked out. "They attacked me."
"Monsters? What are you talking about?" Roman frowned.
"That confirms it, then." Logan sighed. "The Imagination was split as well."
"They talked about that. How the princes and knights were separated from them." Remus stumbled over to the couch.
"I don't understand." Logan mumbled. "Romulus always said that every creature was supposed to obey him. According to Roman, that's what it was like."
"Yes! A row of knights all bowed to me!" Roman sighed dreamily.
"But it was the exact opposite for Remus." Logan furrowed his brow. "Why is that?" It was silent for a moment, all of them thinking. "Perhaps...perhaps your side is harder to control."
"Of course." Remus grumbled.
"I'm sure you'll be able to control it eventually, you just need practice." Logan gave him a small smile. "You are alright, though?"
"Yes, Pocket Protector, I'm fine."

Dirge
All things are. We once dreamed of a sky filled with possibilities. Of neverending knowledge. But those were conceited times, filled with quibbling. Now we look up and fear the vastness. We fear that there’s no edge to infinity. Humanity pulled itself together. Not like you’d expect, not like you’d approve of, but the results are spectacular. We call ourselves Utopians now, to make it simple for our kin in the cosmos. We’ve moved out into the Omniverse, to unlimited resources, and to dominance over the weak. Not for gain, but to the ends of permanence and peace. The cessation of their suffering. At the apex, looking down on those confined, those unenlightened, we felt safe. So few stand shoulder to shoulder with us. Fewer yet of them are so united as we. Porter, a godkiller for the Eidolons, is out of the job. Christopher, a Magus in the Guild, has him a new one, but with motives questionable. Kendall, a failing student at the Monastery, has to deal with secrets he never wanted. Anna, her entire life just fell apart, leaving her bereft. And Doran, he awakens. Each of these people, connected as members of the Omniversal Utopian Commonwealth, are helpless to the dark truth closing in. Not even the artificial intelligence, Aku, keeper of all Utopian power, can stop the Ouroboros. It’s not a new dawn. The light is dying. Hold your breath and go gently.

A King's Regret - Ravenchild
Alwnn is shrouded by the fog of war. Dracones Auryelin, former ruler of the imperial territory, is dead by an assassin’s blade. His mistress and child are missing, presumed slain. His sworn brother, Dracones Uthyr leads what little remains of their legion in a desperate defence of a far-flung, effectively abandoned territory against demons, magical beasts and men. The culprit of this disaster Vertigan, son of a former ally, has declared himself High King and renounced his father's imperial ties. Vertigan’s bid for power had hinged on two key points. The first was capturing Auryelin’s mistress, the imperial sorceress charged with maintaining Alwnn’s mystical protections, alive. The second was the trustworthiness of his barbarian mercenaries. His demon-worshipping, barbarian mercenaries. As all sides seek to attain their own goals a young sorcerer emerges from the cursed woods of Alwnn.
