One Way In
One Way In opens with a surreal drift into the afterlife, not with fire or golden gates, but with Samuel Carter stepping through a green baize door into what resembles an upscale government office. The space is orderly and slightly dull, lacking the grandeur or terror one might expect. Carter, neither startled nor overly curious, treats the scene with polite detachment, as if checking into a club. The room’s only real feature is a large table where Rhadamanthus—the mythic judge of the dead—sits with…-

ON OFFICIAL DUTY
"It has all been according to the regulation," he said, smiling naively as he looked at the examining magistrate with his watery eyes, evidently wishing to suggest by that smile that now everything was satisfactory, that everything had turned out well. He helped the examining magistrate into the sledge, tucked the covering round him, and said: "I hope you will be comfortable." The sledge moved off. Lyzhin looked round for the last time to say good-by to Loshadin, but the latter was no longer by the…-

Olivia: The Bridesmaid
Olivia’s account in The Bridesmaid begins with the relentless discomfort of residing beneath Jules and Will’s bedroom, where every intimate detail of their life filters through the poorly soundproofed ceiling. Each muffled laugh and whispered word feels invasive, amplifying Olivia’s sense of being an outsider in a world she doesn’t belong to. Seeking escape, she considers wandering the island at night, an idea tempting yet tinged with danger given the island’s rugged terrain and haunting…-

Olivia: The Bridesmaid
The weight of the evening settles heavily on the bridesmaid Olivia’s shoulders as she drifts further from the wedding’s revelry, drawn to the quiet solitude the island offers. The distant laughter and clinking of glasses fade behind her, swallowed by the wind as she moves through the darkened landscape. She has spent much of the night on the outskirts, lingering at the edges of conversations, forcing polite smiles, pretending to enjoy the moment while feeling entirely detached. The wedding is supposed…-

Chapter
My Triumphant Finale
My Triumphant Finale begins not with celebration, but with silence—the heavy kind that settles in a prison cell at night when hope has begun to fade. Sigismund Zaluski, a man once full of promise and intellect, finds himself confined not by just stone walls, but by the weight of an accusation rooted in thoughtless gossip. Within those narrow walls, time slows, days blur, and the mind becomes both sanctuary and tormentor. Desperate for a lifeline, he reaches out—not through voice, which the walls…-
