Set one or two generations in the future, in a world where social norms have evolved slightly but human emotions are as confused as ever, this is the story of an outsider who makes his mark, and is marked in return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Notes&lt;/em&gt;:  Completed story arc (8 chapters, ~23,500 words).
