𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗸 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 - 𝗙𝗮𝘂𝘅 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 - 𝗙𝗼𝘅 𝗧𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 Winner - #Horror Boochi by Arushi Karthik. An unsettling fairy tale about daughters, systems, and escape. No comfort, no easy answers, just a sharp, haunting truth.

𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗸 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 - 𝗙𝗮𝘂𝘅 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 - 𝗙𝗼𝘅 𝗧𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 Winner - #Fantasy The Moon Balloon by Vincent Vermeulen. Dreamlike, tender, and a little strange, it’s about holding something heavy and luminous at the same time. One of those stories you keep thinking about.

𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗸 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 - 𝗙𝗮𝘂𝘅 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 - 𝗙𝗼𝘅 𝗧𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 Winner - #ScienceFiction The Sky Loom of Sitaara by Elena Pavlova. A thoughtful story about progress without erasing tradition, using weaving as a beautiful metaphor. Quiet, hopeful sci-fi that stays with you.
