Ancient: Unraveling Mysteries

 Excerpt

Suddenly, Zack saw a bit of swelling under his eyes. What can it be? he thought.

“Guys, I am going to find some water,” Zack said.

Zack started to search for a pond and saw soamething shining behind the trees. He started walking towards it.

Dean took out his guitar and started to tune it.

“What are you doing? Put that away and play some songs,” Strub said.

“No need for the MP3s, I am going to sing,” Dean said, looking at Arhisha.

It's a tale of missed connections, late-night adventures, and the blurred lines between fantasy and reality..." I Should Have Slept That Night It was 10:00 PM. I had just woken up after a long nap, thanks to attending five lectures and a guest lecture. Fortunately, the next day was a holiday. I was feeling famished, and the mess had closed, so I thought of going out for a paratha. I went to Andy’s room and asked if he wanted to join me, but as usual, he wouldn’t leave the campus even if a catastrophe occurred in his room. Damn lazy fellow he was. "Come on, let’s go!” I said. “Why don't you just sleep?” Andy replied. “I haven’t eaten anything; I slept off,” a hungry me said. “Why don’t you just order from Kukkad Wale?” Andy suggested.

The Emperor's Code: A Utopian Dystopia?

In a world striving for Utopia, where justice is the guiding principle, a young woman grapples with her destiny as 'the chosen one.' But what does it mean to be chosen, and at what cost?
