What would you give to save the world? Your life? Your freedom? The people you love? And what if, in the end, the person standing between humanity and survival was someone you called family? --- One year ago, billions of people vanished without a trace. No warning. No explanation. Nearly half of humanity simply disappeared, leaving the world with more questions than answers. Then the Tower appeared. Rising from the middle of the ocean and reaching beyond the clouds, the Tower became the center of a new world. Strange stone doors appeared across the globe, and through them came monsters unlike anything humanity had ever seen. The world fought back. When ordinary people began awakening extraordinary abilities, humanity finally found a chance to survive. Soldiers, Awakened, and volunteers entered the Tower, determined to uncover its secrets and find a way to protect the world outside. But the Tower has its own rules. Every floor brings new dangers, new enemies, and new challenges. The deeper they go, the more they begin to question what they thought they knew. Why did the Tower appear? Where did the missing billions go? And why does it seem to know so much about the people climbing it? As the survivors climb higher, friendships will be tested, sacrifices will be made, and enemies will not always be strangers. Because surviving the Tower may require more than strength. It may require deciding who you are willing to lose. And who you are willing to become. --- Updates: Saturday, Sunday and Monday --- Patreon is available (if you want to read ahead or read hidden side stories): https://patreon.com/mamapatience

Having left home Flora had a rough deal with life. She writes to her sister about her life since she left home...

Before marrying Silas, Joyce had only met him three times. A marriage of convenience, a secret agreement, for a term of three years. She's fresh off a heartbreak — the man she chased for years told her they "weren't a good match." Silas has his own baggage: rumor says he's still hung up on a white moonlight who happens to look just like Joyce. So that's all she is. A substitute. ** In the second year of their marriage, on Joyce's birthday, she drank too much and, in front of everyone, tugged on his tie, pinning him underneath her: "You look... a lot like my husband." The Thorne family's second master, known for being rational and unfeeling, was flustered by her that night. He leaned in close to her ear and coaxed in a low voice, "Be good." The next day Joyce woke up to find her lips were swollen. This… Who did this! When she went to question him, she discovered Silas's lip was bitten. He stared at her and said slowly, "You crossed the line first." ** The scandal leaked. At a party, her ex-boyfriend stepped in: "She's mine. Who dares talk?" Then Silas walked in. The room went silent. "Yours? Since when?" "Joyce, tell me. Whose are you?" So much for the secret marriage. So much for being a substitute. This was supposed to be fake… wasn't it?
