Introduction
On December 20, 2023, the members took a survey about which of two possible novel summaries would come to life. The majority placed their bets and satisfaction on Pale Death. Originally, it was titled Grim Reaper, but Yours Truly—the author who conducted the survey—also found it a bit bland and monotonous. Still, both titles remain parallel in terms of their definition.
The novel promises to create a whirlwind of thrills that rush one's adrenaline. It aims to reveal staggering truths in such subtle detail that they can be overwhelming to comprehend, yet the vagueness allows one's mind to form particular perceptions with every word that clicks. It traverses the minds of criminals, exploring their perception of their purpose in life and for others. Their beliefs drive their wrongdoings, and what they see as freedom may, in fact, be corruption.
As the subsequent parts of the novel unfold, a sanguinary war between death and sanity looms over the story. The hauntings of the main lead's shadow force him to fight for his own peace of mind. The taunts make him more defiant than ever, his heart and mind constantly put to the test…
The convoluted history of his past seeps beneath his feet and runs through his veins. To find the answers to his questions, he must first become unhinged before he can be hinged back to reality and unravel the truth creeping beneath the soil of his grounds…
This novel was born on December 20, 2023, as a project by ICNHS STEM–Mt. Pulag. The main author is Yours Truly, but this release would not have been possible without the members' critiques, participation, and our novel's great illustrator, Alyana Hershey (who created the book's cover and the illustrations on the final pages of this novel).
