Origins: The Luna City Trilogy

Those on the Earth fought a battle older than time itself, inciting a war for reasons unknown that were unfathomable beyond their comprehension. Mere years after their arrival, a disagreement broke out amongst the creatures that either basked in the light or festered in the darkness, unknowingly provoked by the old God's feud that had caused their very creation. Stood outside the gates of hell, the once peaceful world soon found itself locked in a vicious battle that would change the course of history for all that had unfortunately become involved. With the onslaught of carnage carefully hidden in the shadows away from the reach of innocent eyes, the infestation of opposing creatures fought against one another in a bid to seek sole control over the newly inhabited world they all sought to claim for their own—just as the divine creators had intended. In the earliest of days before the war had begun, the council of Gods watched in astonishment while they bared witness to Mother Nature g

With all of us pitching in, we eventually finish the gruelling task given mere minutes to spare before our looming departure arrives. Red in the face, Fara holds a freshly skinned hare out while she glows with a bubbling pride—triumphantly showing off her efforts after begging us to let her get involved, appearing more than adamant about picking up the new skill. Handing her contribution over to Lillie for inspection, the youngster sits quietly on the moss-matted tree stump while swinging her legs—studying Lillie’s face curiously; awaiting the appraisal that was soon to shower down on her. With the afternoon meal prepared and packed away, Rose approaches us with a warm smile that brightens her ageing face—appearing grateful as she carries over our welcomed reward. As Ash hands over the carefully packed cooler, Rose thanks us in return before exchanging our hard work for a hacked wooden plank piled high with steaming chunks of meat.  “I honestly have no idea what I’m goi

As the snarling creature crashes into Lillie’s side with a thunderous force, her flailing paws lift away from the ground while she releases a shattering growl in retaliation. Wincing in pain, Lillie thrashes in revolt mid-air while she tries to free herself of the clawed hand that has clasped itself onto her rear leg. While her widening eyes drown in despair, Lillie’s body plummets towards the floor with a fierce velocity. Yelping in agony, Lillie hits the ground with a heavy slap while Fara’s hold loosens away from her sister's neck upon impact. Winded from the grotesque creature's unexpected blow, the youngster falls into a violent tumble. Unable to stop herself, Fara rolls away from the ravenous attacker when her head hits a protruding rock nestled within the ground; making her erupt into an agonised wail before curling up in terror. With no delay in hearing Lillie’s outcry, Ash firmly plants his paws into the ground beneath him—burying his nails deep into the dirt as he

As if an ablaze comet were crawling past, my vision remains engulfed in an unexplainable white light when I come to notice a growing throb sweeping across my forehead. Uncertain of what is happening, I lie motionless while commanding my fluttering eyes to stay open—groaning weakly as they fight in complaint to re-close, blinded by the amplified brightness that does not wish to fade. Struggling to push past the mental fatigue weighing down on me, I take in a few raspy breaths while reeling in a dazed confusion, anxiously waiting for my disorientation to lift. A high-pitched ringing resonates within my head deafeningly, drowning out any other possible sounds surrounding me when the muffled sensation blocking my hearing abruptly pops. Feeling nauseous, I painfully swallow down the gathering spit pooling within my mouth when a rhythmic machine-like beeping echoes somewhere close by, soundly oddly familiar as it keeps a steady pace. As the overbearing light thankfully dims, my sensitive

As my eyelids flutter wildly, I look up towards the unexpecting set of gawping faces staring back at me in unison. Leaning over while I rest, a shared concern hangs between them while it visibly seeps onto their dread entrenched faces. Gasping as I sit up swiftly, I almost collide into the troubled pair while they narrowly flinch backwards—startled by my sudden awakening; jolting awkwardly out of my way. Panting hoarsely while the others regain their composure, I weakly prop myself up on my unsteady arms while the returning aches settle within my bones and muscles once again—­agonisingly reassuring me that I’m no longer dreaming. Passing a glance over Dakota’s familiar face, my stare levitates towards the second figure sitting at my side. Craning my sore neck upwards, a blonde wolf looks back at me while he perches on the edge of the bed cautiously, worriedly watching over me as he flashes me a warm smile.   “Woah there—calm yourself down for a second, Willow.
