Too bulky for a sidearm, too small for a proper rifle—behold, the Half-Spec Blaster. Too heftty for a quick draw, yet underwhelming at range—versatile, but never truly mastering any single role. But that’s just fine. Embracing this peculiar weapon, I, Narwhal—station drifter, low-rank mercenary, and certified expert in staying out of trouble—have a dream. A dream of living simply. With my powers, I could challenge warlords, take on high-risk contracts, and shape the galaxy with secret knowledge. But I won’t. Work moderately, survive well—that’s the ideal life in the void! Small-time guild jobs. The occasional space hunt. Food that doesn’t taste like recycled rations. If I can be of some use along the way? Good enough. This is the tale of a man drifting through the stars, clinging to a blaster that never excels in any one area… and an adventure that avoids too much adventure.

ALTERNATE UNIVERSE is an album I wrote in early 2024 in response to the way men have treated me as a receptacle throughout my life. That experience is at its core, but the album also explores lust from two conflicting perspectives: one that rejects hookup culture and one that constantly craves it - imagining myself in both roles, in an alternate universe. A piece that embodies this contrast is Interdimensional Urges, which reflects on the decline of domesticity in a relationship from both sides.

The title, ALTERNATE UNIVERSE, comes from the piece of the same name, which was inspired by a short-lived, fling-like relationship I wished had evolved into something more. That longing, that desire for an alternate outcome, shaped the album’s concept: taking real situations from my own experience and playing them out through different characters - sometimes hinting at change, sometimes rewriting the ending entirely.

This album was pre-poetic Rebel, but still written during a phase of poetic curiosity. The pieces are more song-like than poem-like, making them more accessible while still serving the album’s purpose - something deeply personal yet open for others to find meaning in, even if its themes are niche. These include catfishing (God You Want), body dysmorphia (Signature Move), and coming out guidance (Best Advice).

Ultimately, ALTERNATE UNIVERSE was the first album I wrote with a clear concept in mind, and it will be the only album I share that predates FIEFDOM FALL. I hope you enjoy shifting perspectives through these pieces, all centered around the age-old question: what if? Writing this challenged me to see things from different angles - I hope it challenges you too.

Cute, short fairytale created by NFT Sizzle

In a futuristic Great Britain, the last remnants of human civilization live in a massive domed city.  Here, society thrives under strict control, where no one lives beyond the age of 30, and "Commencement" promises a renewed life for all citizens.  But the reality is far darker:  those who reach their time must face death.  The Icemen, including John-6-Steed, ensure that no one escapes their fate.

Steed, once a loyal Iceman, begins to question the system. Joined by Tara-7-King, the two find themselves on the run from the very society they once protected.  Fleeing the city, they venture into the ruins of ancient London, now buried under the wastes. Pursued relentlessly by his former partner, Emma-8-Peel, who still serves as an Iceman, Steed, Tara at his side, discovers unsettling truths about their world and the true purpose of Commencement.

This story is a blend of the stylish espionage of The Avengerswith the dystopian themes of Logan's Run,as Steed and Tara race against time to find Sanctuary---if it even exists.

it all started with the shocking arrest of Department H agent, Storm 01, accused of the ruthless murder of two of the most important figures in the planet of Winter Weir.

However, things took an unexpected turn as Storm 01 managed to escape captivity just as he faces the impending doom of a death sentence.

Armed with his extraordinary powers, Storm 01 ventures into the realms of time, finding himself transported back to a pivotal period in his life - a few hours before his affiliation with Department H.

Will he be able to unravel the web of deception and unveil the real culprit behind the heinous crimes? Or is there a deeper secret waiting to be discovered?

Everyone has a story to tell, made from the moments in the lives we share. Consequently, every person has their own perspective, their own subjective experiences, and thereby, their own subjective realities. Even if the exact same story is told by two people, the details from one will differ in the other.

Reed and Lumina share their lives together, but each of them came from different backgrounds; each of them went through their own unique experiences. Reed is a human being like everyone else on Earth. Lumina is an Altiri, like every one in Genosis. Both are aliens to their own world, and both have seen their own source of immense darkness in their time.

The other side of the same story might sound similar at a quick glance, but in the depths of every personal reality, very little is ever the same. Welcome to the far side of the universe, in a safe corner of the world you've probably heard nothing about. Welcome ~ to Genosis. Welcome ~ to The Other Side.

In a dystopian future, convicted criminals are exiled to Cell 0, a hellish prison planet where survival is a near-impossible fight against brutal terrain, monstrous creatures, and savage, human-like alien predators.

Wracked with guilt and grief, Snow initially seeks only to survive but when he crosses paths with a sharp-tongued, street-smart prisoner named Alaiah, his resolve to live is reignited.As the inmates form uneasy alliances to navigate the horrors of Cell 0, they uncover a shocking secret: the prison planet isn’t just a dumping ground for criminals it’s a testing ground for a sinister intergalactic experiment. To escape, Snow and Alaiah must rally the prisoners, overcome their inner demons, and confront both the alien overlords who hunt them and the truths they’ve been running from.

Caught between survival and sacrifice, Snow must decide: will he succumb to the nightmare of Cell 0, or will he fight to reclaim his life and perhaps even his humanity?
