Summary
The man who would become the first vessel for the ancient god Sleep has had a hard life. He's going to have an even harder death--more than one death, actually, as he gathers his band to perform his rituals for his god. Can they save him? Can he save himself? Will he even want to?

Summary
Locals whisper that the woods are haunted, cursed, or worse — but most don’t talk about it at all.
Eighteen-year-old Evelyn Hale has grown up with those whispers, but she doesn’t believe them — not really. Not until the nightmares begin.
Her father, the town sheriff, shares little about the strange forest and mysterious disappearances of girls from neighboring towns. But the town is on edge, and Evelyn can’t shake the feeling that whatever is out there is getting closer.
To escape her monotonous life, Evelyn works at the little holistic shop once run by her late mother — a woman whose death in those very woods remains an unhealed wound. There, among the scent of dried herbs and cheap charms, Evelyn begins to draw the attention of a stranger and his brothers, who keep showing up in the cracks of her life. There’s something wrong about them — something wild and unsettling — but she can't help but feel drawn to the strangeness of them.
As Evelyn’s nightmares blur into waking visions, she becomes convinced the forest is calling to her — that it knows her. What waits in the pines is older than Briarwood, older than the town’s faded history. And whatever it is, it isn’t finished with the Hale family. -

Summary
🗡️ Turns out the gods we thought were dying were just sharpening their blades. 🗡️
After Sleep's sudden prolonged absence from his devoted followers, everyone has been irritable and on edge. Not even Vessel, their Deity's messenger, has heard from their god. As the tensions rise, they discover that the roots of their problems run much, much deeper than they ever anticipated, and they are torn on whether they should trust the love that they have for each other, or the deity who brought them together in the first place.

Summary
Vessel shouldn't feel like he does. He has his band, he has Sleep, his music is listened to millions of people across the world. He should be happy. He shouldn't feel like half of himself is missing. So he lets III drag him to the pub with the others after their last ritual.
Ghost hadn't been the same since Makarov had killed Soap. Forced onto leave and bored out of his mind, a concert and a night at the pub would at least take his mind off of the guilt that was slowly eating him alive for a bit.
Sleep just wants her vessel to be happy. She's not above meddling to make it happen.

Summary
After attempting to take his own life, Vessel struggles to return to everyday life and gradually his grasp on reality becomes more and more tenuous. II, III, and Ivy are desperate to help but the inexplicable connection the four vessels share begins to crack and Vessel fades more or more.
Or: Vessel is very, very sad, Sleep’s a cunt (as usual), and the boys are trying to keep everything together.

Summary
Eden was always a place that many dreamt of, fantasized about even. Though many did not understand how dangerous venturing to the gardens could truly be. Sacrifice yourself and consume the forbidden fruit of a blood red apple, give yourself to the gods and hope for love.
Vessel stood no chance as his sacrifices were met with love, pain, and blood. He would travel far beyond the path of truth and lies to escape Eden. Will he be forgiven or will he suffer? Join him as he sinks his teeth in the apple of truth and faces the moon.
~~~~
Vessel accepts Sleep's offer of becoming his first without knowing the price that comes attached to it. Fighting through love, violence, blood, and himself, Vessel is forced to watch as he does unspeakable acts. Free. Him.

Summary
Whenever Vessel misses the past, Sleep intervines and snuffs out his old memories. But perhaps the right solution isn't to take, but to give instead:
A new purpose — and a new change to Vessel's body.

Summary
Vessel lies on the sofa drained, it’s been a long few rituals and he can feel Sleep’s energy thrumming in him still, his satisfaction at how many worshippers they’ve obtained, at how obedient Vessel’s been.
It makes him feel sick.

Summary
Gods are not accustomed to feeling useless when the world bends so easily to their will. But Vessel is not the world. He is singular. Unique. He bends to nobody but his own mind.
How sad, Sleep thinks, that Vessel’s mind only ever seems to bend him in ways that make him break.
—
Or, Sleep gives Vessel a gift.

It had started off as a bunch of tiny little things... But staring down at one of his molars, that’d just cleanly popped out like an outgrown baby tooth, Vessel began to get the sinking feeling that something was very, very wrong.
