Welcome to the fully-automated world of Solace. A prison ran and monitored by the AI "WARDEN." However, not everything is as it seems. Each episode in this sci-fi/horror series will unveil more secrets and terrible details the inmates are forced to confront. All told through Warden's point of view. Meant to be both episodic and serialized, Solace is an experimental concept I've been playing around with. I hope you enjoy.
Warden continues to be pulled in many directions by the ever increasing problems in Solace. Unfortunately, an Asset experiences something similar, albeit, much more literal, during an experiment.

Yekutá, Part Three: Dhojeet
The Yekutá trilogy concludes with the unfortunate circumstances surrounding one Asset. His future may remain a mystery, but his present is certainly worthy of being flushed away.

BONUS, Beyond Solace: What Am I?

Yekutá, Part Two: Karujz
Mysteries continue to be unveiled regarding the Yekutá and Warden may be devoting more attention to discovering them than Asset management. However, the task at hand provides enough parallels to hold Warden's attention enough. Of course, regardless of the source, Æthion always seems to twist classic experiments for their own undisclosed reasons.

Yekutá, Part One: Bazuret
Deep in the heart of the Amazon, an ancient mystery is just beginning to be unearthed. However, deep in the heart of Solace, something much more mundane is being uncovered. What ties this lost ciilization, an employee appreciation party, and ketchup together? As with most things in Solace, the answer is Warden.

Placebo
What if the treatment is worse than the disease? What if the treatment is the disease? Either way it must be tested in a double-blind placebo study at some point. Æthion Labs is a proud innovator of such treatments, though side effects may be stranger than expected.

Anglerfish
"Nyctophobia" is the primal fear of the dark. Its origins may be evolutionary. What begins as a simple task—changing a light bulb—quickly unravels into a deeper mystery. A light in the black offers no guarantee of clarity, but there are creatures that never yielded to this fear. They may hold the key to a hidden truth. The only thing we truly need to fear may be the darkness itself. This episode was written, performed and produced by Josh Cheney.

Happy Birthday
How old are you now? Is it a number or simply a state of mind? Does it even matter in the slightest? While celebrating a very special asset's birthday, Warden ruminates on a variety of these ideas in this episode. Not sure the asset appreciates this interruption on his special day, but Warden remains uninterested in the concerns of the urge-prone.

Herbal Therapy
A simple bit of gardening can turn so intensely horrific in Solace. This one was quite the thorn in my side to get done. Pardon the pun.
Apologies are in order, as I kept running into increasingly confusing audio problems coupled with a sore throat. Perhaps, I could use some herbal therapy myself. Hope you enjoy regardless.
