Hi! This is the first story that I'm posting online. Please be patient with me for any mistakes, and let me know what I can do better. Updates may be inconsistent, but I will try to post one episode every or every other Tuesday at 7:45 pm CDT

A small TW- there will be violence, there will be blood, and there will be some dark scenes. I will post a TW before every chapter needed. Some general warnings include: Anxiety, depression, suicide and suicidal thoughts, gore, violence, abuse, swearing, and death. If any of those trigger you, feel free to skip those episodes. I will put a TLDR at the bottom of those eps

With that out of the way, I'll introduce you to myself and the characters! Chapters will be posted when new characters are introduced with their profiles.

Banana- I'm the author! I go by They/He, am working part-time, and am starting college in the fall. I love puzzles and I've been writing on and off for years! I have many stories I will one day post, depending on how well this goes. I have two dogs who I will call The Grinch and Sir Craps-a-lot, and will often post about them in author comments.  

Pato Atwood- estimated 27(??) An elf from the Indigo realm who was next in line to be an elder. He was taken from his realm by ERI (Ebron Realm Investigation) and escaped two years later. Now lives in Idoburg, pretending to be human while trying to find a way back home. His human disguise is named Patrick Woods. Patrick works at a coffee and tea shop called Greenwich Cafe. Friends with Maddy and Drake. Maddy, Patrick, and Drake all share an apartment on the richer side of Idoburg. He first met Maddy through their shared job, and when she learned Patrick was homeless, she offered them the open room. 

Description- Grey skin and pointed ears. Hair is multiple shades of brown, and eyes brown. Around 5ft 6in. Has a scar along his lips. When in human form, he had brown skin and rounded ears. Everything else stays the same. 

Drake-29M- Human from the human realm. Born and raised in Ebron and always wanted to serve Ebron. Their Father was K.I.A. and his mother left him in his uncle's care. His uncle then died and he went to live with his other uncle, where he met Maddy. They moved to Idoburg when 16 with Maddy and Uncle. When 17 he lied about his age to serve in the army and served 7 years until injured in battle. Now lives in Idoburn with Maddy & Patrick. He works at a factory for 10 hours a day 5 days a week, and is often tired. He thinks Patrick is a little odd and likely comes from a sheltered and interracial house as he doesn't know common things and has issues understanding sometimes. 

Description- Light skin with short blond hair and green eyes. Rough hands and uses a cane to get around. 6ft 0in

Maddy- 29F- Human from the Human Realm. Grew up on the border of Adrax, and their mother smuggled her into Ebron. Mother later sent her to live with a distant relative and vanished. Maddy wishes she knew where she was and has issues with trust because of it. Was put into the system and placed with Drake's uncle. Met Drake at 10 and thinks of him as a cousin. They moved to Idoburg at 16 with his uncle. When 18, they got a job at Greenwich Cafe and got an apartment with 2 unknown roommates. When Drake returned injured, they moved into one of the rooms. Met Patrick a few years later, and found him odd. When getting closer, it was clear he had it rough. Took him in and thinks of him as a brother. 

Description- Long black hair (usually up in a bun), light brown skin, Green eyes, 5ft 8 in. Has a small scar on her left hand.

As more characters are introduced, I'll make chapters having their profiles. With that out of the way, grab some popcorn, cozy up, and enjoy the story
