United Way Grants

A seemingly normal day turns into a nightmare when a group of high school students in China finds themselves inexplicably trapped in their school. As night falls, the building transforms into a chilling maze filled with deadly mysteries. Survival depends on following a strict set of cryptic rules—rules that change with every passing night. Bound by fear and desperation, the students must rely on their wits, unravel the sinister forces at play, and confront their inner demons. But as alliances form and secrets unravel, they realize that not everyone can be trusted—and the way out may demand the ultimate sacrifice.

In a world where strength defines a hero, Seko Ikara stands on the thin line between recognition and ridicule. As a member of Eclipsed Guardians, a small, often-dismissed hero group, he and his team are seen as failures—punchlines in the grand spectacle of heroism. Their missions rarely end in glory, and the public, ever eager for perfection, has written them off as weak. Labeled as weak, mocked for failures beyond his control, Seko refuses to acknowledge the scorn of the world. To him, the opinions of mortals are nothing more than noise. His team’s losses do not define them—only the grand design he sees, the purpose he alone seems to understand. Yet, beneath his godlike detachment lies a heart that cares deeply. He does not express it through words or visible vulnerability, but through action. In battle, he does not hesitate to stand between his allies and danger, shielding them without ever asking for thanks. His kindness is cold, distant—like that of a deity watching over their people, offering aid without expecting gratitude.

Which way is North? How do you reach North without seeing? His world is darkness, but not silence; for the staff in his hand sings. Curved from an ancient tree whose roots drink from the hidden warmth beneath the snow, it hums a melody only he can hear, a compass tuned to the heartbeat of the North. He navigates the world searching for his mother's homeland. The land he seeks is no barren waste. Rivers slice through ice like liquid sapphire, their music harmonizing with his staff. Towers of crystal and light pierce the horizon - spires built by forgotten hands, refracting auroras into swords of color. Here, cold is not an end but a crucible. Fruit trees, heavy with pomegranates glowing like embers, thrive where others would perish. Their sweetness is earned. Their roots know secrets. This is Frostsprite, where the land is like a fable. Are all fables true?
