H-2-U
My name is River. We live in the year 2075. In this modern world, water is the second most needed thing in the world. Aside from money. I work for a water delivery service known as H-2-U. A long time ago, juices became too difficult to make due to climate change and the lack of people willing to grow plants. Not long after, a wealthy leader decided that water was extremely profitable and kept it from the general public. The only way to obtain drinking water today is by paying me for the water I deliver, which feeds the corporation even more. No money, no water. But, honestly, sometimes I find it okay to bend the rules a bit.

The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. While John had been there for Grace her whole life, her mother had not. She had run off shortly after birth, leaving John to care for Grace alone.

Healer of the Wood
It was a very damp morning. Dew clung to the grass, coated the brambles of so much brush and undergrowth, and glistened on the needles and leaves of many tall trees. There were towering redwoods, Douglas Firs, Tan Oaks, maples, and pepperwoods. Moss coated parts of the forest floor and climbed up many trunks. Thick branches spread in every direction and seemed to twist around one another, creating a thick jade canopy. Even if the gray clouds parted, the sun wouldn’t have been able to penetrate many parts of the thickly set leaves and limbs.

The Best TV Shows to Watch
The manner in which we consume our media has seen a key change in perspective throughout the past ten years. It occurred in steady advances — TiVo, VOD, the ascent of streaming organizations; those advances and a lot more are essential moves toward rebuilding the manner in which we approach serialized narrating designs. Simultaneously came the ascent of cell phone and tablet culture, and the open door that comes when a great many people have a screen before their countenances for most of their waking hours. Normally, not long after came the ascent of marathon watching.

The Rogue Dragon
The Night of the Amber Moon is less of a holiday and more of an eerie event though the Spellbinders would like us to think differently. The collection takes place at midnight when the golden moon is high in the ink black sky and the darkness has snuffed out all the light of the sun and stars. The only light that is visible is the burning torches along the village shops leading to a roaring bonfire in the center of the town square where the payments will be collected. Thousands of villagers stand in a long line to pay what’s due and for those who don’t make an appearance, the guard goes from door to door to ensure no one is missing.
