Spring Day

The Day They Walked

In 1972, a groundbreaking discovery by Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen in genetic engineering, where they created the first transgenic organisms by inserting a resistance gene into an E. coli plasmid, sparked both immense scientific excitement and public backlash. While many hailed it as a monumental step forward, others protested, fearing humanity was "playing God." Amidst this controversy, Jeremy Karlson, a renowned paleontologist, recognized the profound potential of Boyer and Cohen's work. He saw it as a means to achieve something unprecedented: bringing dinosaurs back to life. Jeremy, accompanied by his wealthy step-brother Jake, who offered to fully fund the ambitious project, met with Boyer and Cohen. Jeremy revealed that during an expedition in Alaska, his team had discovered a perfectly preserved, 17,000-year-old juvenile dire wolf with intact organs, from which they successfully extracted degraded DNA. He believed that with Boyer and Cohen's expertise in transgenic technology, they could use this DNA, and by extension, potentially dinosaur DNA, to resurrect extinct creatures. Initially hesitant and skeptical of the audacious proposition, Boyer and Cohen were eventually swayed by Jeremy's unwavering confidence and the sheer magnitude of the idea. With Jake's financial backing and Jeremy's bold vision, they agreed to collaborate. The project, estimated to take four to five years, aimed to apply the nascent field of genetic engineering to the realm of paleontology, promising to reshape the world in an unimaginable way. As they left, Jeremy mused that when their success became public, the world would be irrevocably divided.

The day of the Delivery

In the past, people called the Deliveries crazy and treated them like outcasts. They were often dismissed as people lost in their own fantasies. But then everything changed when the world started falling apart, and everything was chaos. The Deliveries turned out to be something far more serious than anyone thought. They weren't just imagining things; they had an incredible power flowing through them. Alone, they were already strong, but when they came together, they posed a real threat to what civilization we had left. Amidst all the chaos and despair, a small group of people decided they weren't ready to give up. They started to form a kind of resistance, a glimmer of hope shining through the dark times. But we all know that hope can be fleeting, like a candle flickering in the wind. Now, the future of our world hangs in the balance, resting on the last people anyone would expect to team up. There's this hero, who isn’t quite sure about her own abilities—she’s powerful but doesn't fully get it yet. And she has to ally with the very forces that led to this widespread destruction. As they try to find common ground, tensions rise. Friends may turn against each other, and the atmosphere is thick with mistrust. There’s a pressing question that everyone is thinking: can the same people responsible for so much pain turn things around? Will they be able to help restore hope, or is there a risk that doing so could lead to even worse betrayals?

The Spring Princess

The Prophecy of Eirene "When Nightshade falls upon the land, And the soil drinks deep the sorrow of kings, A vessel shall rise, in bloom— Her heart split by two, her choice to mend the world or break it." ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ The continent of Eirene, once a cradle of harmony, now festers as the cursed husk of Nightshade—a divine punishment hurled from by a forgotten god in search of a mortal who defied fate. It spreads like rot, consuming kingdoms, poisoning waters, and stirring madness in the minds of men. Yet from this decay, hope sprouts. In the heart of Antherion, a blessed kingdom, lives Princess Daphne De Agrice—the prophesied Vessel of Healing, the one destined to restore the land or doom it forever. When two foreign princes arrive—one from a realm of fading melodies, the other from a kingdom where spiders weave their last prayers—both seek alliance and salvation. But as they stand before Antherion's throne to plead for their people’s future, their words falter from the tremor of a single glimmering glance. Daphne, radiant in her grace, stirs within them the will to save, and the aching desire to be saved by her. Torn between duty and affection, Daphne must choose. Between a kingdom of song and a land of silk. Between two men and the countless lives they represent. Between what the world needs of her—and what her heart yearns for. And just as the threads begin to tighten, a lone nomad cloaked in ash and dark ess steps into the palace gates. With them, they carry a shadow older than Nightshade itself, and a truth that may unravel Daphne’s destiny.
