This (short)story is Completed! Even if you're not a fan of short stories I think its definitely worth giving it a shot. Chapter 1 is here, the rest of the novella is (free on amazon until sometime on Saturday 4/29) Or available anytime on amazon (Kindle Unlimited too) Birth Status: Corporation-Dron.... ahem, "Corporation-Asset". That's crap though. Free isn't like the rest of the drones... well, except for her friend Three, he's alright for the "Mr. Corpo Poster-Boy" that he is. But she isn't like any of them. She was FreeBorn, and one day soon, she'll sail further than any Asset has ever seen, break her way into the High-Priority Personnel DataStack at the very heart of the CodeSea, and prove it. The setting is cyberpunk-fantasy and it's for January's community contest with the prompt 'uncharted waters'.

But after a tragic event Jonna is forced to leave the world she's used to and step into a new tragic but magical world, one that is far more destructive then it lets on. This is book 1 out of a book series. Excerpt from story, chapter 14: "Beautiful day, no?" It says with its coarse and hissing voice. "Not much different from yesterday." There is no weather in this world, each day is the same. There's no night, no rain. Not even the wind exists here. The creature laughs and pushes a gaunt-looking hand against its mouth behind the veil. "Yes, you humans with your world. I can imagine that the Eleven is too... still for the likes of you." Its grin makes the hair on my neck stand up. "Personally, I prefer these kinds of worlds. You always know what to expect. No sudden surprises... But I doubt you're here to discuss the weather," the creature says and make an overdramatized gesture.

Cosmic deities? Ha! They're far more than that. They are our universe and its masters, and the masters of all other worlds, their flesh being the space between. They are the creators, the destroyers, preservers. Alpha and Omega. Their immortal servants are mistaken for demons and angels on the world of plain and stupid mortals, and although we may call ourselves their descendants, our divine blood has been so diluted and our eyes have grown so rotten that we can no longer see them without going mad upon a mere glance at the outline of their shadows. No, instead we delude ourselves, thinking we can hurt them by battling with their ageless, yet barely killable abominations of children, just like the old Mad King, and just like me. Baron Arthur Grey of Oxfordshire. A fool and a coward, who's fear of losing his own world, led him to lose a free one.
