Summary
“I can turn straw into gold,” a child insists. His face is smeared with dirt, tears dried and sticky on his cheeks, but his iris’ are the color of the sky and his hands are clenched into fists. The other kids laugh at him and kick more dirt up at his small body, sneer, and tear into him with cruel words.
“Gold?” a porcelain smiley-faced figure questions, kneeling before the child and offering out a hand. His face is hidden, his voice is dripping with amusement and greed, but Tommy takes the hand of the first person that has listened since his parents died.
“He can spin straw into gold?” the emperor questions, a great being with wings of smoke and death and eyes as cold as ice. His twin sons laugh like a funny joke has been told, identical pairs of tusks gleaming in the light of the throne room, and a challenge is set.
Three days. A room of straw.
A story that will be spoken about for eons.

Summary
Tommy used to be an average street kid: starved, hungry, and practically half dead. One day, however, he heard of a guild who practically took in street kids- fed them, clothed them, gave them a place to sleep- and the offer was too good to pass up. All he had to do was work at the guild!
Now, a couple years later, Tommy is one of the best assassins in the Essempi guild, but his mentor sends him on his hardest mission yet: "Kill the royal family of the Antarctic Empire on the night of their annual ball, October 31st." Tommy takes the missions as a challenge, but little does he know that this mission will be unlike any other he's completed before and will change his life forever.

Summary
Phil is a house flipper who buys an old allegedly haunted house once owned by the Soot family. He's fixed up plenty of "haunted" houses before and doesn't think this one will be much different. Yet, as more and more strange happenings revolving around the bedroom of a long dead boy interrupt his renovations, he has to grapple with the fact that his new house might just be actually haunted.
Maybe?
(In which Phil is that one horror movie dad character who found his fixer upper "dream house." Except he doesn't have a kid (yet) and he somehow manages to switch the genre halfway through to found family via Dad Energy^TM.)
