"Suggestion Box"

Hypnosis is an extremely natural human process that one will experience hundreds upon thousands of times in his or her own life. This is taken advantage of for personal gain, entertainment, or even manipulation. In any event, hypnotism is never making anyone do anything, it is merely a state of extreme relaxation and free-mindedness. It is almost a dream-like state and the person is open to do most anything, things he or she probably wouldn't ever consider doing in a normal state. One woman will find out that the particular "trick" of hypnotism will change her life forever. Notorious and mysterious hypnotist, Dominic De Chevre, an eccentric man of little to no background information, will make Veronica Lewdy a part of his game. De Chevre believes that Veronica has some vices that must be changed. One way or another, Dominic will try as hard as he can to completely manipulate Veronica through hypnotism in order to change her into a better person. But why?

"Karma Is Just the Tip of the Iceberg"

Legend tells of a divine witch that creates a mysterious hex over the world out of revenge and to inflict a harsh lesson to humans. Karma becomes an instantaneous and penetrating force in everyday life. If one were to tell a lie, a wretched bitter taste would dominate the tongue. If one were to steal, a burning and scalding sensation would lash the hands. If one were to murder, one's own life, or the life of one close would be threatened. Since then, the people live in acceptance of this mystical dogma. However, legend also tells of the one item in the world that can reverse the hex: The Heart of Atropa, hidden somewhere in the world in what is only known as The Frostbite Dais. At the turn of the 17th century, a pirate crew runs afowl the curse of Atropa: Captain Dante Magnadraft loses his wife, Isabel, when her sister murders a man. Driven by madness and revenge, Captain Dante sails his ship, The Belladonna, in search of the mysterious Heart of Atropa. Along with his first mate, Vergil Filet, he searches. However, a mutiny strikes and a new pirate crew makes its way in the world, hoping to keep The Belladonna from achieving her destination. The Rubezahl is sailed by Captain Achilles Locomos and his first mate, Octavio Jiffler. They search also for the mysterious item that will reverse the hex on the world. Interested in such an adventure, Doctor William Nipper joins Captain Locomos and his crew. There, he becomes infatuated with a member of the crew, Delica Dulcette. However, his hand is promised to his fiancee back home, Avelyn Doxy. Over the course of the adventures, peoples' faith will be tested, resolves will be shattered, and men and women will be broken. Some don't want the hex to vanish, saying that it is good to have an incentive not to sin. Others want the hex to vanish, claiming that in order to do good, sometimes it is necessary to commit a crime. Either way, someone has to find the Frostbite Dais and claim the Heart of Atropa.

"Dreamday"

What if we aren't the ones that come up with our ideas? What if we're not the ones responsible for our own philosophies? Our own ideals? Our own goals? Our own beliefs? What if our lives were under the control of an empire that builds its kingdom on pillars we forge blindly? One man finds out that very truth about his own society. President Merric Ahriman and his wife, Olivia, has created a government resembling a utopia, where everyone supports their decisions and cooperates completely. But how? Simple: a secret organization implemented by Merric known simply as the Dream Knights. Head of the Dream Knights is Alexei Specter who, along with his men, implant ideas into the minds of the American public through their dreams, thus forcing them to talk, act, and behave exactly the government wants them to. Darian Chateau finds that his thinking is actually different from that of everyone else's, and no one knows why. Fearing rebellion, Merric orders the Dream Knights to make everyone around Darian to betray him, do all that they can to drive him to madness, and thus either become an outcast or beg for mercy. No one will help him. Not his wife, Renee, his brother, Terrel, or his best friend, Aiden Bauches. There seems to be only one person that sympathizes with him: a man named Janus Vatrant. Somehow he, too, thinks differently and together, they just might bring down Merric and the Dream Knights.
