You and your people had been fleeing for a long time. Fleeing from other people. Fleeing from beasts. Fleeing from monsters that could change between people and beasts. The memory of moonlit death hunted you still. You had fled through overgrown forests, across raging rivers, over towering...

Change is in the air. 'Inauspicious times,' say the elders and mystics, to a one. The winds blowing through the river valley are wrong these days, howling through trees with too-spindly branches and too-few leaves. The air is strange; hot and dry when it should be warm and wet. The River is...

If the 20th century was defined by the two world wars it saw and the one it avoided, the 21th century was shaped by the repeated crises of the globalized capitalist order that shook it.The trend began at the turn of the century and only became worse as the system strained under its own weight...

Greetings stranger. Take a seat by the fire. You are cold? That is normal in these dark days. I'm surprised you are even willing to speak with a human such as myself. Your kind is not known for being friendly? Oh? You wish to hear the story of my people? The story of Humanity? Very well then. I...
