    Summary

    “Show me.” He demanded.
    Sunday swallowed thickly, throat bobbing.
    “Show… Show you…?”
    Answers to questions I cannot ask.
    Feelings, which have been manifesting inside me.
    These desires, which have been festering like a weeping wound.

    Right now, all Sunday could think about was the person before him.


    ---

    Father Sunday is trapped in a beautiful nightmare, where all of his virginal questions could be answered. With the blessing of Ena, he is given the chance to explore all of his desires, a path through which he would find himself and a key to the cage he longed to escape.

    With the Hound of the Dreamscape by his side, change doesn't look quite so frightening anymore.

    Summary

    After Sunday of the Oak Family fell from grace, a Revolution is staged in Penacony to cleanse the city of the toxic elixir called ‘pleasure’, when Magic stops machinating endless entertainment, and turns around to foster progress. For Penacony’s sizable population of Magicians, performing silly tricks to cash in on street performances is a marker of time gone by; now, they must channel their magic to bring about changes worthy of their talent.

    Among them is Black Swan, a humble Memokeeper in a humbler home where she counsels her clientele by taking a glimpse at their past to divine a worthwhile future to fight for, a cause that might’ve been buried in the throes of sweet dreams. But Black Swan knows the Revolution not only requires what efforts they make, but also a power struggle that’d decide how they are made – how may Magicians and Mortals be balanced in the new equation of their world? But she doesn’t expect war until she meets a girl with one hung over her head.

    Summary

    'Normally, the action made affection bloom burst through Black Swan’s chest, but it had the opposite effect this time. As she stared up at Acheron and studied the fond expression on her face, the feeling that something was horribly, horribly wrong intensified. The feeling continued to grow until it practically overwhelmed each and every one of Black Swan's senses.'

    or;
    Black Swan and Acheron appear to be living an idyllic, picturesque life together, but not everything is as it seems. A persistent feeling that something is wrong prompts Black Swan to investigate, but the answer she receives may not be the one she wants to hear.

    Summary

    Psychotherapist interrogator Dr Black Swan signed her soul away when she joined the Garden, a top secret intergalactic agency dealing entirely in secrets but she swears its for the good of the world. With her expertise in mental torture and interrogation, Swan is a legend in the Garden's deepspace ships--there is none she can't break or won't break as long as it serves the interests of the Garden. The Garden needs to persevere, its vast archives holding histories unimaginable and Black Swan would do anything to make sure it does.

    That is until a wounded Ranger slams into the ship. Though armed with the grace of something destructive, Archeron, as she calls herself, is gentle and the Garden's most infuriating puzzle. The Gardeners are sure that Archeron holds the key to winning the grand war--but she can't remember none of it right now. At the behest of the top brass, Black Swan takes on the challenge of unravelling the mystery of her elusive subject's mind.

    Through games and tricks, the two learn each other's contours but when Black Swan realises the extent of what lies beneath Archeron's pretty face, she must decide whether to turn the ranger in--or orchestrate the most daring escape of both body and mind.
