I am currently in the process of rewriting the chapters of 3-6 (what follows this "chapter" in Tapas) to make them both shorter and better fit as a beginning to the novel I'm now writing. The old beginning has been almost exactly the same since I first came up with TPC 4 years ago, but I've realized that the story TPC is today would be better suited to a different start. Therefore, I am rewriting and condensing the information contained within these chapters. I'm going to upload them separately from the current chapters (as they're ordered differently and play out a tad different), then eventually delete the og chapters once the new ones are all up. Some minor details have changed between the new chapters I'm going to upload and the old ones, but feel free to read the current ones until I delete them. Remember, though! Once I finish the new ones, the old chapters will be deleted, never to be seen again!
Ghosts of past tragedies haunt the town of Kavo after decades of neglect. Fantastical creatures desiring nothing but fear and destruction hide in invisible tears in reality. Gangs and the police are at constant war with one another, there's a shapeshifting monster running amok, and the mayor's assistant suddenly wants a disabled orphan kicked to the streets.
A year ago, Gene was discovered in the forest on the outskirts of town, half dead, amnesiac, and unable to even speak the local language. As he had nowhere to go, he was brought to the orphanage of Kavo for a place to stay. Now Caspar, the assistant of the mayor and the man who funds the orphanage, wants him kicked out. When Gene's left to the cold, cruel streets of Kavo on his own, he has to navigate through a town ravaged by decades of neglect and intrigue. Has the corruption truly been purged from the government? Why are godly forces active in Kavo, a small town in a backwater country? And most importantly--will Gene survive?
