CHAPTER 5
Run. Eat. Sleep. Repeat
This pattern continued on everyday for a month, then 2, then 3. Everyday Minho would get up, eat a small breakfast pack a lunch and run until dusk. Thomas noticed that Minho left and returned everyday the same time the runners would in the maze would.
Everything that the runners did in the maze, Minho did. Thomas wondered why but he didn't ask. He thought it would be best to give Minho time to cool down and only god knew how long that would take.
After the 4th month of Minho's
"Run. Eat. Sleep. Repeat. Pattern." Thomas decided that waiting for Minho to talk first was not gonna work. So the second he got back from his run, Thomas cornered him.
"Hey Minho" he started.
"What do you want you shuck traitor?" Was Minho's harsh response.
"I'm not a traitor" Thomas stated simply.
"Oh you are in my book." "Ya traitor" Minho sneered.
This is going nowhere Thomas thought.
"Listen I only did what Newt asked me to do." Thomas said trying to get straight to the point.
"Oh really he asked you to kill him." Minho said doubtingly while still taunting Thomas.
"Actually yes he did!" Thomas exclaimed getting frustrated.
" I highly doubt that smart one."Minho tauntingly said back to Thomas.
"Well he did." Thomas's voice was getting tense and strained.
"That doesn't mean you had to pull the trigger!" Minho semi-yelled.
"IF NEWT BEGGED YOU TOO WOULD YOU?! HE TRUSTED ME TO DO IT! KNOW WHAT HE SAID TO ME?! KILL ME IF YOU WERE EVER MY FRIEND KILL ME PLEASE TOMMY PLEASE! HOW COULD YOU RESIST THAT! KNOWING THAT HE TRUSTED YOU IN HIS LAST ACT HOW COULD YOU SAY NO!? IT WAS ALL HE WANTED HE DIDNT WANT TO GO INSANE, HE WOULD HAVE RATHER DIED! I DID WHAT HE WANTED ME TOO!" Thomas sobs tears flowing showing no sign of stopping.

Minho stopped. Stopped yelling, stopped glaring, stopped thinking.
"W...what?" Minho asked.
"I just did what he asked" Thomas said tears still coming.
"I can't believe it," Minho said.
"What? Don't think that I actually cared about Newt."
Thomas asked still crying.
Minho continued talking as if Thomas hadn't even said a thing. "I just ignored the guy I loved for 4-5 months." He mumbled.
"What?" Thomas asked confused.
"Huh?" Minho looked up.
"Guy you loved?"
"Oh klunkity klunk, please please tell me I didn't say that out loud." Minho pleaded.
"Um I'm pretty sure that you said that out loud." Thomas confirmed.
"Just forget that those words ever came out of my mouth." Minho commanded.
"Why?" Thomas
"JUST FORGET ABOUT IT!" Minho said loudly and firmly.
"Holy shuck, okay don't go crying about it." Thomas teases.
"I'll give you something to cry about." Minho says obviously not in the mood to be teased.

Hiraeth: Promise of the World
On a rainy night, a young woman is transported to the enchanting world of Sol'h'meyr. Thrilled to be freed from the shackles of monetary survival and societal expectations on Earth, she embraces her newfound existence and magical powers bestowed. But the rose-tinted fantasy life she always dreamed of turns out to be a stark reality that poses to kill her if she doesn't adapt and let go of her past. Essairyn battles both cripping nostalgia and imminent danger in her journey from the Spirit and Demon Forest to the human realm of As'pyze. Disillusionment leading to anger has erupted into violence across the deceptively peaceful land. New friends and allies gather by her side, but tragedy and betrayal lurk closer than she realizes. Hiraeth is the idyllic beginning tainted with dark shadows in the epic fantasy series, Singularity Cycle.

The original version of the first book was published on RR in 2019 and has since seen multiple revisions based on reader feedback with this one as the final and official fourth version before the second book. While the entire series story has undergone major changes in the last year, all books have been planned since the beginning of writing. It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
