Beneath the quiet glow of the moon, love whispers, dreams unravel, and longing lingers in the night. "Lover’s Lament to the Moon"is a collection of poetry woven with moonlit romance, unspoken confessions, and secrets carried by the wind. Each verse is a love letter to the celestial guardian above—a keeper of heartache, passion, and the echoes of souls who dare to dream beneath its glow. This anthology captures the beauty of love, loss, and the aching desire to be heard by the ever-watchful moon.
Let these words become your own midnight serenade, a solace under the starry sky.

A land, split equally in half, is ruled by two children.
The child of the light harnesses the sun and all the creatures belonging to it.
The child of the dark dwells in the moonlight and gives life to night.
When the Moon and Sun's sides bleed into each other, hybrids are formed belonging of dark and light.
How can both children see past thier differences and learn to co-exist?

Malina-Deprassi was a world of extremes. The Big People had more than they ever could need. The Small People struggled to get by. Events occur which cannot be explained. Prophecies are told which gain widespread attention. Children are born into the world.———
