"Some stayed behind before dawn. Some wandered through the nameless night.
Their screams were piercing. They were the unfortunate ones.
They struggled to survive, like nameless weeds tossed about by the wind.
They may have remained in the darkness, but their will is forever etched in memory.
A tribute to the great ordinary people."
[World One: Atonement]
This is a horrifying murder case.
Old friends meet again, with old grievances and tangled feelings between them.
They killed my light, so I took revenge.
It was only natural.
But, Officer Xu, I will still atone for what I did. - Yang Shen
[World Two: He Came from the Stars] (Excerpt One)
The starry sky is a strange and mysterious place, and one man came from there.
[World Three: Him in My Dreams]
What you can't find in reality, you can always find in a dream, be it friendship, family, or love. - He An
Note
I'll write short stories, novellas, and some essays and excerpts.
The general theme is "before dawn," but the content isn't restricted to that.
The poem is something cringey I wrote in middle school.
Readers can make requests in the comments about scenes they'd like to see, and I'll try writing them.
Some stories have couples, and some don't.
