In the fractured world of Arcadia, where superhuman abilities are both a blessing and a curse, some powers carry consequences more devastating than any external threat. Levi, the Twisted Mirror, discovers this brutal truth when his unique ability—creating and reabsorbing mirror copies of himself—transforms from a tactical advantage to a personal nightmare. The moment he touches his newborn son Sean, erasing an entire potential life in an instant, reveals the terrifying cost of power unchecked by understanding or restraint. Through Sol’s haunted perspective, we witness a profound meditation on identity, the fragility of existence, and the monstrous potential that lurks……
Sol.15 – Becoming Harder
Seven Years Ago
The sounds of a shamisen filled the temple and floated out through the open doors and into the mountains. I breathed in easily, held it and breathed out. The twinge in my legs breaking my concentration. I tried to stop myself from reaching down and massaging them but I couldn’t help it, same as I had not been able to stop for the past 3 years since Valkyr had worked his own……

Sol.14 – Facing the Whitehands
Present Day
3Ball shuffled through the papers on his desk, barely reading them. He was furious. It was a cold fury, he had had long enough now for the heat of it to die down and be banked into coals.
The man had tried to stop Sol. It really threw a spanner in his plans, 3Balls’ carefully constructed narrative was teetering on the edge now, he needed to know how much those idiots had said to Sol. How much had they given away. Maybe more importantly though, how had they failed to mind slave a drunkard.
3Ball changed the music to something more……

Sol.13 – Leaving Arcadia
Seeker knew that Handsy Pete would be waiting outside the bar when it opened. Not a day went by without him dropping in for a pint or five. Most other places didn’t put up with the man however he knew the score here and was never any real trouble as he was running out of places to drink.
“Afternoon Pete.” Seeker said as he opened up the front door. He had to catch himself and make sure he didn’t call him Handsy Pete to his face.
The man pulled himself off the ground and nodded at Seeker who could smell the liquor……

Sol.12 – Finding My Feet
10 Years Ago
The Seeker awoke to the sun streaming in through the window. Moving gently to avoid the pain from the hangover he swung his legs out from the bed when he realised, there was no pain. He could open his eyes fully and register the morning sun without squinting and reaching for a hip flask.
Trying to figure out what the hell was going on and slowly, each flash of memory being served up with an almost malicious glee from his brain which did not feel pickled for once.
Heading out with Steve, the beating at the House of Levi, his……
Zethum the Decayer
The townsfolk stayed away from my castle. A long time ago it was because of the whole, you know, being an undead Lich. That was a long time ago, those memories are full of fire and brimstone, pain and death.
Now? You look out over your carefully cultivated vineyard, Scorsby was there watering the grapes and Martin was busy at the other end with what looks like a wheelbarrow full of manure. It has been decades since you had moved on and learned that not everything was about power and death. Nothing like living for hundreds of years to give you……
