A Proposal for Grinlandia Stories

A Proposal for Grinlandia Stories may well be set mostly in both Portugal and Ireland in all but name, as Grinlandia is itself more likely inspired by Catholic Western Europe, the northern Philippines and some parts of Latin America’s Southern Cone than by other regions. 

A compilation of ten stories 
The Girl (She) Who Runs Through Waves 
The Road To Nowhere
The King Of The WereRats - a filthy dark story about a sewer of WereRats witnessing the downfall and subsequent replacement of their (admittedly screwed up) previous royal dynasty by another one. Funnily enough, its upcoming adaptation also mirrors the downfall of competing British Royal dynasties, themselves being replaced by another one. 
Jessie And Morgiana 
Reno Island 
Mister Designer - the only Alexander Grin Story to clearly be set in the near future, which is mostly due to significant technological breakthroughs. 
The Lanfier Colony - An unintentional allegory for both corporate abuse and on the lighter side, romance, especially between two disabled peers. The disabled Bekeko and Bikika are themselves sadly killed off near the end by Lanfier after Ester and her former rival marry. 
The Scarlet Sails 
The Golden Chain 
The Shining World
