Description

In terms of speech, the world has revolved for centuries, circling back from Mandarin and English being the central languages, but that's not dialect. Dialect is no longer local to say the least. In Oxcstrom, language is a barrier to keep the poor from the rich. The rich know their normal dialect, but the poor know the ancient dialect. What keeps them from being rich is just language. But that can change, right? *** Deci is a poor worker at the Loft--a place that oversees the city, Oxcstrom. He fits in as well as banana in an apple tree, he's in his prime age, and speaks little. He doesn't like talking, and he's been itching for change. Mena is a rich worker who works at Area 12, developing new rules every day. She manages the department and constantly has to rewrite the rules based on recent changes. Enta is a girl who has always fallen for the laws, but everything changes when she arrests Deci--he comes across as psychotic, but maybe he's the sane one and everyone is the insane ones? Area and Cass are the sons of the President and want nothing more than to become the next ruler of the faltering city. Join this rapid pace novella with twists and turns as Deci fights to win his freedom, choose between truth or life, and tries his best not to be buried in the indoctrinations of the standards. Warnings: This story contains violence, mentions of sex, mentions of nudity, and plenty of gore, drugs, and uncomfortable scenes. Read at your own discretion. Cover by @0StxrmySkxes0
