In this nightmarish tale, Pete and Amy try to discover who or what to follow.

Pete and Amy hear many voices declaring "truth", which is the right one? The situation seems bleak, at best, especially for Pete.

Pete, a successful Mayor, must make sense of what is going on in this world and the world to come. He is haunted by an unknown smell from the darkened anthropomorphic house he lives at, as well as a strange world he keeps reappearing in.

Curious things keep happening as this man is caught in a double life of weakness and strength. On the one hand, he is loved and people understand him as a powerful, prosperous man. On the other hand, he is secretly weak and lost, especially when around his house.

Amy, who encounters Pete later, is a skilled warrior, from a different world. She has reliance on no one. Yet she too, is in confusion at what is happening, and her world crumbles from what she has previously known.

Can Pete and Amy figure out what is occurring before they follow the wrong voice?

|| ONC 2020 ||Round One QualifierWhen Cara was asked out by a cute guy at school, she had no reason to say no... or to believe it would be one of the worst decisions of her life. A year later and she is still dealing with the trauma, attending a support group for survivors of sexual assault. When a fellow classmate named Tabitha joins the support group, Cara is terrified she'll tell everyone at school her secret. She knows she's supposed to rely on the other members but can't help feeling that something is off about Tabitha. Refusing to trust her, Cara decides to keep her distance. That is until Tabitha tells the story of her own assault, the details of which sound eerily familiar to Cara. Realizing they have much more in common than simply sharing a support group, the two of them work together to pick up the pieces of their shattered pasts. But when another girl comes forward with a similar story, they decide picking up the pieces just isn't enough. The three of them hatch a plan... one that will lead them down a destructive path toward violence, vengeance, and murder.|| ᴏɴᴄ 2020 ﹣ ᴘʀᴏᴍᴘᴛ 68 ||ᵞᵒᵘ ᵐᵉᵉᵗ ˢᵒᵐᵉᵒᶰᵉ ʷʰᵒ ˢᵉᵉᵐˢ ᵗᵒ ᵇᵉ ᵖᵉʳᶠᵉᶜᵗ ᶠᵒʳ ʸᵒᵘ˒ ᵇᵘᵗ ᵃᶠᵗᵉʳ ᵈᶤᵍᵍᶤᶰᵍ ᶤᶰᵗᵒ ᵗʰᵉᶤʳ ᵖᵃˢᵗ ᶤᵗ ᵗᵘʳᶰˢ ᵒᵘᵗ ᵃ ˢᵗʳᶤᶰᵍ ᵒᶠ ᶜʳᶤᵐᵉˢ ʰᵃˢ ᵇᵉᵉᶰ ᶠᵒˡˡᵒʷᶤᶰᵍ ᵗʰᵉᵐˑ ᴺᵒᶰᵉ ᵒᶠ ᵗʰᵒˢᵉ ᶜʳᶤᵐᵉˢ ʰᵃᵛᵉ ᵒᶠᶠᶤᶜᶤᵃˡˡʸ ᵇᵉᵉᶰ ˢᵒˡᵛᵉᵈˑ
