Codename: ❝*The Interval Man*❞

Genre: Time-Displacement / Reality-Liminal Thriller

A man from our Earth finds a mysterious Nazi-era device in a sealed bunker. Once activated, it traps him in a loop of temporal resurrection — each time he dies, he is pulled to a different year in Earth’s history. He cannot die, cannot control the jumps, and cannot return to his own time.

The device, fused to his wrist, is not just a time tool — it’s an alien or multiversal artifact possibly lost or buried during WWII. It seems to have an agenda: testing, transporting, or preserving him for a purpose he doesn’t understand.

Main Points:

• Each timeline is Earth, but from a different year — sometimes decades in the past or future.
• Rarely, he’s thrown into a parallel Earth, which causes severe headaches and disorientation. He avoids these at all costs.
• Elias seeks these intervals while slowly unraveling the device’s origin — and his own role in something larger.
• He’s hunted across time by agents of unknown allegiance, some warning him to destroy the device, others urging him to reach the Nexus.

Codename: ❝*The Bone Compass*❞

Genre: Multiversal Mystery / Indigenous Futurism / Reality-Shift Thriller

A systems analyst named Iraia is sent by the Emporium to a Polynesian-led mirror Earth, where ancient navigation and high tech exist in harmony. Assigned to investigate reality disruptions, he’s guided by Mako, a sharp, spiritual local who suspects Iraia isn't being told the full truth.

They discover a carved bone compass in an underwater ruin — a relic that responds to Iraia’s touch with visions of forgotten worlds and fractured timelines. The object is not inert; it’s a dimensional tether, designed to locate Riftwalkers — individuals living across multiple versions of reality.

As Iraia unlocks buried memories and connections to the artifact, he begins to suspect he has been here before… in another life, or another self. The compass pulses stronger as the fabric of this world frays, and the Emporium may be preparing to collapse the timeline to contain the breach.

Main Points:

• The Emporium uses “audits” to track anomalies, but this mission hides a deeper purpose: Iraia is the anomaly.
• The compass is both a navigational tool and a key — one that can open, or collapse, a reality.
• Mako must choose whether to protect his world or help Iraia escape it, even if it means losing him.
• The world itself begins to shift: tides rise unpredictably, stars rearrange, and ancestral songs start changing.

Codename: ❝*The Hollow Vale*❞

Genre: Pastoral Enigma / Soft Fantasy / Closed-World Mystery

In a secluded valley ringed by impossibly sheer, cloud-capped mountains, time seems to breathe slowly. Generations have lived peacefully among the villages of the Hollow Vale — harvesting grapes, crafting music, and celebrating eternal festivals beneath sun-drenched skies. No one remembers arriving. No one ever leaves.

Renna, a restless vintner’s apprentice, begins to question the valley’s perfection when a tremor splits the earth near the old chapel, revealing stonework that shouldn’t exist — carved with glyphs none can read but she instinctively understands. Her visions grow stranger: birds frozen mid-flight, moons that vanish between blinks, a song heard in dreams in a voice not her own.

When a stranger washes ashore in the valley river — mute, frostbitten, and unmistakably foreign — the villagers are shaken. Some call it an omen. Others say he’s a liar. Only Renna feels the pull, sensing that this man may hold the secret to the valley’s true nature… and a path beyond the mountains.

But the Vale resists change. The harvest turns sour. Songs slip into unfamiliar keys. The sky bleeds color at dusk.

Main Points:

• The Hollow Vale is an artificially preserved world — possibly a vault, experiment, or sanctuary — designed to forget itself.
• Renna possesses an inherited memory encoded through generations, now awakening due to the stranger’s presence.
• The mountains are not just terrain, but a cognitive barrier; to cross them is to remember everything.
• The stranger once escaped the Vale… and now its cycle is collapsing to pull him back in.
• The ultimate question: is the outside world salvation, or obliteration? And does the Vale want to be saved?
