Dreams of Nightmares

Ruoena has always felt isolated from the world around her until she discovers a race of creatures that call themselves "inknlings"—and they live in a place that would be a hellish nightmare for anyone else. But Ruoena isn't just "anyone else," is she?

Dark Fantasy

Ruoena Alliene Everest Elspeth is a strange girl—she is drawn to things that most people are thoroughly terrified of. She has always felt out of place, separate from every other human being she's known. Ruoena has a reputation of pushing the limits, and she tends to explore places and things that she shouldn't, and despite all the warnings, her explorations lead to the discovery of an entirely new species. The "inknlings" are shapeshifters that live in the overlap of Earth's dimension and theirs, a place that has, before Ruoena, never been accessed by anyone else before. Ruoena, the curious oddity she is, fits in perfectly within the society of the inknlings. All is well until she starts to dive deeper into the world she's been adopted into—what exactly are the inknlings, and how did they get here?
