Summary
Sebastia is a naive unstable woman who escaped a lab that put a creature inside of her. This story follows her journey of trying to get rid of the creature that Sebastia has given the name ‘Miracle’ with the (brutal) help of Toby and the other Creepypastas. As she’s thrown into this new and hopefully temporary life, Sebastia must learn to fight and how to control Miracle as new dangers come to find her. Along with that she’ll go through brutal situations with the other Creepypastas she’s staying with as relationships develop. Not a natural killer like the rest of them, she’s often a target of cruel treatment. Can she make it out? Is she cursed to stay here? Or will she be dragged back to the lab that got her here in the first place?

Summary
Five Pebbles is being consumed by his past mistakes. His can festers away, each cycle spreading the malignant Rot inside, and struggle as he may, there is no escape. But a single pearl, stumbled upon by his last citizen, Artificer, in a stroke of pure luck, shows him a way out. A way to free himself from his can, escape the Rot, and maybe find a way to redeem himself for his past. It's as simple as cutting a puppet's strings.
The outside world is dangerous, but with determination and fierce companionship, Pebbles and his group of strange slugcat companions can not only survive, but find a place for themselves in the world, where the new civilizations of slugcat and scavenger rise from the ashes of the ancients. The ghosts of the past can be overcome, and a new future found, but it will require no shortage of bravery, insight, and determination.
Breaking free is just the first step. The real challenge begins after.

Summary
Nearly a year has passed since she turned her back on Crèche D’riluth, her name dragged through both blood and ruin. Exile was supposed to be freedom from blood-wrought zealotry. Instead, Cy’ra find herself wandering the streets of Baldur’s Gate, loneliness stalking her like a cruel shadow, haunted by the silver glow of a goddess she was never meant to reach for. Noise is all she seeks—something to drown the hollow aching in her chest where greatness once lived.
She finds Shadowheart instead: striking emerald eyes, a hand seared with Shar’s cruelty, and a hatred with an edge sharp enough to execute. She hadn’t expected her salvation to come dressed as violence, nor hatred to feel so close to home.
Brutality binds them first, and mercy keeps them near. Make them hunted. And as bounties rise and the gods snap their jaws, exile and acolyte alike will learn what it means to be pursued together—what it costs to bare their scars beneath Selûne’s unwavering gaze. They’ll be forced to choose: devotion, betrayal, or something far more dangerous, each other.
They’ll both be nobody’s soldier.

Summary
When everyone you have ever loved is finally gone
When everything you have ever wanted is finally done with
When all of your nightmares are for a time obscured
As by a shining brainless beacon
Or a blinding eclipse of the many terrible shapes of this world
When you are calm and joyful
And finally entirely alone
Then in a great new darkness
You will finally execute your special plan- Poem by Thomas Ligotti (Current 93: I Have a Special Plan for This World)
