I don't remember when or why, but they say I have killed someone. I was judged for this. Yet, I'm still free as they haven't found any evidence to send me to jail and close me inside a cold cell, for eternity. However, they are still after me! Especially my victim's brother, who swore to kill me or kneel me down. And now, when we are working together, I'm forced to see him every day and see that big hatred he feels for me, reflected in his eyes. Nevertheless, this is a reciprocal feeling: hating! Even so, something makes me like him. I don't know if this is because I am a crazy woman that likes to be hurt by the one she loves. Yet, while his eyes are piercing me and leaving me bleeding inside, I understand that he also suffers and that we both don't know anything about this world. My name is Ian SolHi. I'm 30 and I'm a detective in the Homicide Department, Seoul PD. I've been accused once of being a murderer. Also, I've been declared innocent, for lack of evidence. That's why I entered the police: to find out the truth. Since then, 7 years have already passed without finding out what happened that day. However, this makes me think that one day the same world that hides everything from me will show me the truth. I don't know when exactly this happens. Even so, I'm sure it will be sooner than everyone expects and this is so because the monster inside me is awakened and feels already the smell of blood."

[Synopsis from the book's web pages at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords] This book is a compilation of 13 contemporary science fiction and speculative fiction short stories whose range extends from the innermost dimensions of the mind to the outer reaches of the universe. The stories touch on both timeless and novel themes including philosophical questions as to the meaning of life, the nature of reality, the power of love, the catastrophic consequences of looking for truth in all the wrong places, scientific hubris, and the superlative strength and wrenching weakness of the human spirit. Themes include hard and soft science fiction, horror, humor, romance and literary fiction in both traditional and unusual combinations. Several of the stories in this collection can be classified as "dark fiction" that pose all too disturbingly feasible ways for human beings to destroy themselves through bad decisions--and perhaps even our corner of the universe. But these are tempered with humor and with the hope that springs from humanity's ability to cheat fate through its ingenuity--and, more importantly, to learn from its mistakes. These stories are intended to entertain, but also to leave the reader thinking long after she/he puts down the book.

Yes, I understand it's a really obscure and forgettable moment. It's really short, so please read it before judging it. It's probably best read in conjunction with chapters 6 and 7 of the first volume, since there's a lot of overlap. If you've read this far, then thank you for giving this obscure little thing a chance. TL;DR It's a short story to add details to LMS Vol.1.

How do you deal with waking up every night for almost a year because of a nightmare? I guess it doesn't matter because I am certain my particular nightmare isn't a normal one. My Uncle even tried to use magic to guard my dreams and prevent the nightmares, but nothing is working. With my 21st birthday coming up, I honestly hope I can get a good night's sleep. Yet, I can't help but wonder why Labyrinthia, goddess of Dreams, insists on tormenting me so. Not only that, but mom and dad have been on edge ever since uncle returned from his latest travels. I hope everything is OK out there. Surely, my recurring nightmare isn't a bad omen or anything, right?
