Immersion by L.R. Maley

It is difficult to say when the Immersion happened. There is little doubt as to where it began. It was in a village. Despite an impoverished life, the village held a community. A community that was rich in the love of life and each other. People that worked together to ensure that all were fed and taken care of. Some would say that these conditions are the essence of an Immersion.
Mik and his friends are at that age when the future looks infinite in all its possibilities, and life has never been so good. This year they attend the county fair as adults. But there is a world outside that cares little for the country people and their yearly celebrations of life together. A world where monsters prey on innocents. A world of evil. In the aftermath of the destruction of their world, ten refugees struggle to stay alive. But the Immersion has happened, and they have a greater role yet to play.

The Redemption of The Erimocan Manaar had been incomplete. They had sought vindication, from any connection they had to The Reaping, through the eradication of the evil that they had failed to contain. But the true redemption of the Erimocans would never exist without a return to balance. The Immersion at the Windbeck county fair was only the beginning of a struggle for that balance.
Mik has led his friends to The Choke. A desolate hell where the undead of Ganepa have congregated to unleash a war against the living. The young manaar seeks to cross this canyon to discover if the knowledge found in the Erimocan Library can guide them in the use of their new power to survive. It was that which was learned outside of the scrolls and leaflets, by the Village Immersed, that would set their direction and balance the odds.
