She is Not the villain

“She enters from the left, the way they told you villains do.” 

And she was a villain–the villain–the Goddess against whom the White City was built. She is Fear herself. The people of Oras raised walls to keep her out of their city and prayed in shrines to keep her out of their souls. When she showed up among them anyway, they forged swords to slay her, but wound up slaying each other instead. Such is the nature of Fear. Deception was her plan all along, or so you were taught. 

But Fear, it turns out, may be more sincere than you learned. In the ruins of the White City, the Goddess searches for survivors of the war, but all she finds are cinbeasts, monsters imbued with Fear’s own power and worse: her memories. When Fear disturbs a greater cinserpent, the Goddess must face Oras’s most heartbreaking history. If Fear is to have any hope of saving the precious life left in the rubble, she must relive her own role in the city’s downfall and learn how to rebuild Oras using the same misunderstood magic that destroyed it.

the great sequel

Draftin’ + Craftin’

After months of therapy to help him process the traumatic events of 1922, Nick Carraway has settled into life as a high school English teacher in small town Luverne, Minnesota. He’s even married to a woman named Jordan (no, not that Jordan) who encouraged him to publish his memoir about his time in New York. But Nick’s latest piece of fan mail is not what he expects, a letter signed by none other than Jay Gatsby. Nick can’t decide if it’s a cruel joke or proof that Gatsby was right all along: Maybe you can repeat the past.

Set ten years after the events of The Great Gatsby, The Great Sequel will be a time traveling journey in which Nick discovers the boat bearing us ceaselessly into the past may move in more than one direction.
