Summary
“We’re people, that’s great news,” Alfred reiterates, steering the topic back to neutral waters. “I guess let’s rip the bandage off—are we brothers?”
“We’re brothers no matter what,” Matthew quickly reminds him.
Warmth spreads through his chest, but Alfred rolls his eyes, “Are we related?”
A story told in five parts about DNA testing, chosen families, fake birth certificates, group chats, and the slow mending of a centuries-old hurt.

Summary
“So why are we going?” Mattie finally asks.
“The DONI got involved because it was a matter of national security, I guess, and it’s ended up with my name on the Witch Trial Memorial,” he explains. “They asked my permission to do it, and I guess I thought… I don’t know. He deserves it.”
There’s a furrow in his brother’s brow. “He?”
Right. “Alfred Kirkland.”

Summary
For the sake of bullshit government efficiency, countless American federal workers are let go from their jobs in the summer of 2025. It was only a matter of time before the Department of National Identity was hit, as no one knows what they actually do. Who would have thought this would set off a chain reaction leading to the reveal of... immortal personified country people who walk among us.
This is a story about government corruption, personal liberty, the power of collective strength, caring for your neighbor, and loving one another without giving a damn who sees it. Also, the Stamp Act of 1765.
