False Wakes: Three Stories Where the Truth Comes After the Memory

Some awakenings don’t begin with sleep. Some identities are built on silence. And some lies are too deeply woven to be unraveled without tearing everything apart.

In Sleep Mode, Sarah believes she’s helping shape the future of healing—until strange glitches appear in her dream-enhancement program. A snow globe. A locked basement. A girl who shouldn’t exist. As her grip on reality weakens, Sarah must decide whether truth is worth shattering the world she’s come to know.

In The Archivist’s Lie, Jakob works in a postwar archive, piecing together the story of a country reborn. But the deeper he delves, the more the records seem designed to deceive. When his own name surfaces in a secret file from the past, he’s pulled into a narrative that might not be his—but one he can’t escape.

And in Executive Silence, Clara writes the words that hold a nation steady. Until one day, they start appearing without her. Her voice is used in places she’s never been. Her past is scrubbed, her presence questioned. In a world where language is currency and control, Clara must fight to reclaim a voice that was never truly hers.

Three stories. Three unravelings.

When memory can be manufactured and silence is strategic—what does it mean to wake up?
