The Calling - The first story I plan to write, which while it takes place in the Tarot universe and eventually involves extensive tarot lore, starts out smaller, making it an ideal starting point. It is the story of a girl named Amber Harding, who aside from her dark blue hair (colored hair is normal for her world), is overall a very normal highschool-age girl with an interest in impossible possibilities and distant worlds, having become attached the worlds she found inside fiction as a result rather than the boredom of normal everyday reality. One day she ends up getting a strange invitation bound in a golden ribbon while walking on the way to school, offering her a chance to finally escape the mundanity of reality so long as she agrees to participate in some sort of "festivities" called "The Calling." She ultimately takes the invitation's offer, and soon finds herself in a strange contest or simulation of sorts overseen by a mysterious woman called "GM" on behalf of the enigmatic "Dolls," taking place within a strange, artificially crafted, yet staggering in depth world alongside thousands of other contestants who took similar invitations - who she quickly realizes are all characters from various fictional stories (though none she recognizes)... the only question is why a completely unremarkable girl like her would be invited to something like this, populated by people from all sorts of stories - action movies, RPG video games, various ridiculous anime types, absurd fantasy novels and more - leaving her to try and figure out why she was invited and the nature of the Calling, while also truing to survive the "festivities" she was promised.

My tribute/analysis of genre fiction (which is, of course, what all these stories are) and the various tropes and storytelling conventions within, examining various things like the concept of story villains, the more exagerrated nature of life in stories, and more while also telling a mystery/adventure story with helpings of unique action and a massive, colorful cast of various imaginary fictional characters I've all handcrafted to my best.
