Description
"Mariah's Prologues" form an introduction to the world of "Mariah's Dream."
#1 The Dog with No Name - One eventful night in Belfast, a soulful dog makes a split-second decision that will change his life forever.
#2 Mothers of Belfast - Three mothers. Three children. And a man willing to suggest desperate measures to keep them all fed in perilous times of famine.
#3 Rue the Night - He wishes the job hadn't been forced on him. For her, it couldn't come soon enough. Follow two cyborgs on an ordinary night patrol, where anything might happen...
#4 Strawberry Dreaming - Mariah is exhausted at work and keeps nodding off, to dream of her uncle's once-lush garden. But perhaps there's still magic in Belfast after all.
#5 Callum's Alley - Callum is only eight, but he's working already because the corporations dictate it. Childhood is rough and he dreams of his brief escapes to the riverbank. Then, in the alley, a surprise encounter brightens Callum's day...
#6 One Man's Work - Ellis Flanegan's workplace at the grain mill in urban Belfast is loud and oftentimes inhuman. It's all he can do to keep hold of hope as fates are decided before his eyes and treasured trinkets traded for food. His greatest accomplishment, in his view: his daughter Mariah.
#7 Foe or Forager - In famine-ridden Belfast, edible harvests are rare and wild fruit even more so. The perfect reason why two young men go head to head over... a plant.
#8 The Fate of the Ring - Jasmine agreed to barter away her wedding ring to feed her family for a few more days. Now it's up to Dougie to make it happen or lose his cut of the deal; he must venture into unknown territory and confront a crime lord in Belfast's dark underbelly.
