Story
My parents named me after an angel. That was a mistake. My words and actions remind them of this on a daily basis. My father disagrees. He is the Sentinel of Order, God’s unchecked hand on the world, but I’ll always be his little girl. Da may be biased, but he’s not deluded. The angel for whom I was named is beautiful, brave, and temperate. Da says two out of three isn’t bad. I cannot take credit for my beauty, and will not attribute bravery to things that simply must be done. As for temperance, I have none. I come to my lack of temperance honestly.

Story
William Ortell, a refugee of the war between gods, finds himself chosen as a successor to a long dead hero of the war. He must decide whether to put aside his grudges or to sink into the comforting stillness he has created for himself. He isn't alone, though. Joining him are scientists, soldiers, magical experts, all with their own stories, all from their own walks of life, and all with their own reasons for fighting. As they are, could they possibly hope to stand against the Soulless? Against the dangers the galaxy holds? Or will they fall just as so many heroes had before them?

Story
Life was simple, but it was good. I kept to myself, ran my gaming shop in the town I’d grown up in, and business was pretty good. That was until bizarre things started happening. I could have sworn I heard something breathing in my basement right before I woke up in my bed with no memory of the time between. My high school crush suddenly comes back to town, and hot but crazy women are coming into my shop like never before. What is happening in Wormwood, and what’s it got to do with me?
