Nathan was no stranger to coding bugs, but the one he encountered while working on his latest project defied all logic. It was supposed to be a simple recursive function, designed to break down a complex problem into smaller, manageable steps. But every time he ran the program, the recursion didn’t stop. Instead, it spiraled …
Story 4: The Silent House
There was something wrong with the old house at the end of Verdan Street. It had stood empty for years, yet no one in town could quite remember who had lived there or why they had left. Strange noises echoed from inside, even when the windows were boarded shut, but it was the silence that …

Dr. Miriam Ellis had spent her life studying sound—how it moved, how it changed, and how it interacted with the world around us. But her latest experiment was different. She wasn’t just listening to sound waves anymore; she was trying to capture echoes from the past. Miriam had developed a device capable of detecting sound …
Story 7: The Fragmented Path
Orin and Liora had been wandering for days through the endless expanse of the glowing wilderness.
