Thriller

From The Abyss
The Niflheim wasn’t as comfortable as a commercial ship that transported civilians between Earth, the moon, and Mars. It wasn’t as comfortable as military escort ships either.

The Shocking History of Assassins
If you've frequented the cinema lately, you've likely observed Hollywood's tendency to romanticize nearly every profession it depicts. Take archaeology, for instance; very few archaeologists have stumbled upon priceless treasures while raiding tombs. Finding a Harvard professor who globe-trots thwarting ancient secret societies via LinkedIn is highly improbable. Your average hacker is more inclined to be in their parents' basement searching for COD exploits than battling the FBI from a penthouse apartment. Another vocation often misrepresented is that of the assassin. These characters appear so frequently in TV, film, and games that one might assume assassination is a thriving industry and an excellent career choice. From Jason Bourne to Agent 47, from Deadpool to John Wick, the portrayal of assassins has captured the imagination of audiences worldwide. Yet, a glance at job boards reveals a scarcity of assassination opportunities. Nonetheless, humanity remains captivated by the notion of a lethal assassin emerging from the shadows to eliminate unsuspecting targets with precision. Assassination, in various forms, has existed as long as humans have walked the earth. However, the modern archetype of the assassin—a skilled, stealthy killer eliminating influential figures for religious or political motives—can be traced back nearly a millennium to a group known as the Order of Assassins.

History's Most Unbelievable Survival Story Is Actually True
Growing up in England, I was immersed in the rich tapestry of the English language, which has woven its way into the very fabric of my being. From the peculiar idioms that pepper our speech, such as "all mouth and no trousers," "a different kettle of fish," and "Bob’s your uncle" (even though my uncle’s name happens to be Derek), to the obscure words nestled within the depths of the English lexicon, like defenestrate – a word seemingly reserved for the rare occasion of tossing someone out of a window – and bumfiddle, which, contrary to its suggestive sound, refers to a musical instrument rather than nocturnal activities.

Nobody Should Of Survived This, But This Man Did
It was a serene morning on the picturesque Ebon Atoll, where husband and wife Russel and Emi were engrossed in the laborious task of processing the coconuts they had meticulously dried for their livelihood. Their tranquil routine was abruptly interrupted by frantic shouts echoing along the shoreline. Rushing to investigate, they encountered a startling sight: a disheveled man with a thick beard and weather-beaten appearance, dragging himself through the foamy surf. The discovery was nothing short of astonishing against the backdrop of the remote Ebon Atoll, nestled within the Marshall Islands—a name not unfamiliar to those who follow historical accounts, particularly in relation to Amelia Earhart's disappearance, which intersected with this archipelago. The Marshalls, with their tumultuous history including being a site for numerous post-World War II nuclear tests, are among the most secluded places on Earth. Consequently, unexpected visitors are a rarity in such isolated realms.

Prologue
Running, Running with no end in sight. The hallway is dark, the ground hard and rough. Pain shooting up my legs radiating through my joints with every step. My lungs are growing weaker and weaker. Every breath more laborious than the last. It's like I'm suffocating, but I can't stop. If I stop, for even a second. It's going to catch me. I don't know what it is, but I know what it smells like.
