Summary
The South was a land spoken of only in hushed voices. It was said its people were cultists; Devoted worshippers of beings that did not belong to their soil, nor their sky, nor even their world. Once every decade, without fail, the South offered tribute. Their youngest were sent away to be turned, bound into service for the unseen powers they claim to call Gods.
Those between the ages of fifteen and sixteen were chosen. No exceptions. No mercy.
Five were taken in their current generation: Grian, Jimmy, Martyn, BigB, and Pearl. They were told not to resist. Resistance, after all, always bore consequences. And so it proved. Only two of them managed to flee.
Martyn and Jimmy.
The others were not so fortunate. Grian was beaten into submission, his will shattered before he was forcefully turned. BigB and Pearl followed soon after, claiming the same cruel fate.
Above them all loomed the higher beings; the Watchers—the one the South pleads loyalty to—and the Listeners. Ever-present. Ever-seeing. And every day, the youth of the South whispered the same silent question: Did they ever truly have a choice?

Summary
Somewhere not so far west from the South…
Scott watched the sun sink slowly beyond the horizon, its warm orange light spilling across the fields of flowers he had tended and loved for years. The quiet moment was broken only by the soft whistle of a kettle on the stove, signaling that the water was ready.
He poured the steaming water into a white cup, the heat coaxing the fragrance from the tea leaves within. A gentle stir, slow and practiced, and it was done. Scott lifted the cup, blowing softly across the surface as he prepared to drink.
His peaceful afternoon, however, was interrupted by a knock at the door. With a low hum, he set the cup down upon the wooden table and made his way over, unhurried. When he opened the door, surprise stole his breath.
Standing there was a tall blond boy with eyes deep of brown cocoa beans. Yellow folded wings on his back with a pair of small ones on his head, both unpreened. Marking him as something far from ordinary. A hybrid. Scott has heard and seen them. This was no greater example.

Summary
At the whispering land of the South…
There stood Grian, high atop the towers of the South. The cool night breeze tugged at his hooded cloak, its shadows concealing his identity from any who might seek to see or know him.
From that vantage, he could sense—see—where his brother was, closer than Martyn, yet still far beyond his reach. The knowledge settled heavily in his chest, though it brought a measure of relief. For now, at least, they were safe. For now. That is what keeps him sane.
Alongside two more reasons…
