    Summary

    Pomni isn't an adventurer-- she's just a regular bard, who travels from town to town, singing songs to keep everyone happy and hopeful during these dangerous times. But her travel companion Caine has an important Quest she needs to deliver to a notoriously chaotic adventuring group the general public likes to call the Traveling Circus. Despite what her best friend Gummigoo thinks, Pomni embarks on her very first adventure with the strangest rag-tag group of people she's ever gotten to know, to eradicate the Abstraction Virus that's been terrorizing the world for centuries now. Will she be able to find some new material to write more songs with? Or will she lose her mind learning to cope with the craziest adventurers she's ever met?

    Summary

    A caesura (Latin for "cutting") is a metrical pause or break in a verse where one phrase ends and another phrase begins. In time value, this break may vary between the slightest perception of silence all the way up to a full pause. The length of a caesura where notated is at the discretion of the conductor.

    Even ripples have gaps, and quiet moments have their stories. The divine is on the brink of war, the world is on the verge of collapse, but the world carries on. Time marches on.

    (A collection of stories dissecting the nature of time and memory. Each story should be read as a standalone.)

    Summary

    There was, indeed, a person. Aether stared in horror and wonder at the young man inside the coffin. (It was a coffin; it must have been, given what it contained.) The body looked perfectly preserved. There were no signs of decay or dryness. His clothes were immaculate. It was as if the man was merely sleeping.

    “Let's leave,” Paimon said, tugging on Aether's scarf.

    “Wait.” Aether leaned over the coffin's edge. This wasn’t normal. This place, the ice, this man… Aether didn’t understand, but he wanted to.

    Aether, a fallen star looking for his lost sister, awakens a sleeper in a frozen ruin.
