Quiet and reserved Drew Sark arrives at the infamous Nevermore Academy in Jericho, Vermont, hoping to escape his haunted past. But peace is a luxury he cannot afford.

Haunted by unsettling raven visions that offer prophetic, agonizing glimpses of impending deaths, he must wield his potent, unstable electrokinesis and sharp intellect to survive.

As the bodies pile up and the school's shadows deepen, Drew realizes the killer isn't just hunting outcasts—they are hunting him. To save those he is slowly learning to care for, Drew must unravel a web of ancient conspiracies, even if it means unleashing the destructive, lightning-charged monster dwelling deep within his own fractured soul.

Prayer and Magic
By @Larry Connor
In 1984 post-colonial India, a routine school trip to Chennai takes a nightmarish detour when a bus full of children gets lost on the forbidden Mount Zion. A thick, unnatural fog descends, trapping them with no escape. Among the panicked passengers is Sid, a hot-headed intellectual, whose scientific mind is ill-equipped for the horrors unfolding. Mount Zion, unknown to mortals, is the physical temple of Yaldabaoth, the Demiurge, guarded by Archons – entities that can bend logic and perception. As children vanish and reality warps, Sid must navigate this cosmic labyrinth, his quick temper clashing with the unfathomable, trying to protect the innocent from deities whose very existence threatens sanity, all while clinging to a sliver of hope in a world consumed by ancient, unknowable terror.
