A shantytown sails upon the sea; a lonely boy builds himself a friend; and the night sky in Japan's frozen north is filled with stars. Surely you've heard the Tale of the Five Magicians: Anne-Marie, Paolo, Goodman, Fyodor and Aika? let me tell it to you again, and for the very first time.

Hello 2114. I can only hope we have survived up to now, and the world is much better than it was so long ago. Here's some advice, but I can guarantee you that if the world is in horrible shape, it will be too late to salvage.

A person thinks about a tree, and a tree thinks about everything. A winning story of the incredibly talented Margaret Atwood's short story competition for the Future Library.

Azrah, a 12 year old Pakistani girl trapped in a country so war-spoiled that the air is unbreathable, is given a book for her 13th birthday. This book isn't like the ones hidden in her Mother's room or the ones that she uses in school, this one is from the far past. Scribbler Moon. Azrah doesn't know it, but that book will change everything, even when a repeating tragedy happens in Azrah's life. It'll teach her forgiveness, and show her what the world was like before 2114.

My contribution to the Future Library Competition. It is written from the prompt "Pandora's Room".

There was a time when murder was commonplace, even mundane. Luckily the class of 2114 can't imagine such horrors, but Agatha will have to. Wrote this in a very short time for Margaret Atwood's Future Library challenge, hope you like it, feedback would be very welcome!
