In the heavens above, the fates can do nothing but watch as a disastrous future has unfolded. Their crystal balls, cards and ever seeing eye could not have stopped the foreshadowing coming. There is a war brewing between the fragile lines of the old and new and thus, the world is plunged into chaos. When a reluctant god fathers a child with a disgraced family name: a catalyst is born. With no births from the gods for thousands of years, the child is an anomaly which fuels the climax of a dangerous game woven into the fabric of the ancient laws. With souls willing to kill anyone in the way of them getting to their prize, a drastic decision must be made. A resistant god A sacred family secret A damning prophecy A dishonourable child A whole lot of mayhem And a new world order born from the ashes. This is the golden string.

No one has ever looked at Abigail Clarke and thought, 'failure'. With a pretty face, perfect grades through all her 12 years of schooling and an easy-going personality, she has always been meant for great things. The only problem? Money. With a single working mother and living in a down and out south-coast council estate, Abi can see her plans for the future quickly dissolving before her very eyes. How fortuitous, then, when a letter with no return address is slipped under her front door, detailing an offer she quite literally cannot afford to turn down. The stakes are high, the pay-outs higher. Fortune, fame and every opportunity laid out for her on a silver platter. Losing a little sanity is a meagre price to pay.

No longer in control, her hands instinctively gripped the fabric of her seat, her shoulder blades hit the back of her seat, and her eyes opened again as she felt the bus start to move. It was an escape, but she was fearful. // the unknowns ; extended summary inside ; copyright © junxluna 2021 #8 in asiansinlit [14 jan 21] #15 in diveristy [14 jan 21] #66 in talkthepoc [13 jan 21]

As Dakota Akihara crashes, Rhea Walton falters. While one is drug away from a life in the 1%, the other finds it increasingly-unbearable to put up with the crushingly-expected and dependable monotony of slow business, bills to pay, and mouths to feed. Rhea Walton knows herself well enough. Well, enough to understand that very few in her small, small town, particularly not her father, see who she is below her mask. Dakota Akihara - now Dakota Maxfield - on the other hand, feels as though presently, his entire identity is a question mark. Wether he's being over-dramatic or not, is not the point. His father's in jail for embezzlement and insider trading, his family is striped of everything, and his mother has forced him and his sister, Aya to leave their lives in the Upper East Side. Ironically, her search of refuge ends in a place with people she hoped never to interact with again-who don't, quite frankly-know anything about her life after she left. So of course, on a full moon, Dakota Maxfield faints in front of the Walton's diner window.
