In these 12 chapters, I delve deep into the recesses of the past, telling the stories of my long-lost siblings -- four of us -- entwined in love by abuse, our struggles and our secrets. The bonds that once held us together have withered, leaving me alone to bear witness to the echoes of our shared existence. Through my stories, you will be forced to confront your own memories, to reflect on your family dynamics and the imprints of your childhood. Each chapter draws you deeper into the intricate web of emotions, revealing the multiple perspectives that shape our understanding of one another. As you turn the pages, you will witness my family's divergent paths through a traumatic upbringing, their individual lives becoming the sole realm of their control. "Fragments of Jane" is a testament to the power of memory, a literary vessel that reminds us of the lasting impact of our origins. I invite you to reflect on the complexity of family bonds and the enduring resilience within us all.

IN A WORLD WHERE WEATHER EXTREMES ARE AS PERSISTENT AS SUNRISE AND SUNSET, YOU FIGHT OR YOU HIDE. Most people in Veerden are born with the ability to tame one of the four elements - fire, air, water, or earth. Without the tamers, humanity would have lost the battle with nature long ago. In her youth, Kyra grew up with peers who were able to deflect wind or make a fire with willpower. She spent years telling herself that she was like them, but insipits like her are naturally barred from the tamer arts and powerless against nature's forces. What use is her sword against strong winds, heavy rain, and lightning strikes? When a storm comes, twenty-year-old Kyra has to hide inside with the children. But how much longer can she do that when all she wants to do is fight?

Have you ever watched a sunset? Have you ever watched two sunsets?

Together with his trusty vehicular eye of the night, the Farfontein Optical Observatory or the "Foo", he makes an astounding revelation about the matter. And then some. This story was originally written for a challenge to write something about the expression: "What goes up must come down."
