Blurb Description: You live. You love. You Die. Now RUN. ReMade is a thrilling sci-fi adventure that will take readers past the boundaries of time, space, and even death.

This is the 10th episode of ReMade, a 15-episode serial from Serial Box Publishing. This episode was written by Gwenda Bond.

Seyah makes a discovery to the delight of the whole group and gains some time to reflect. With her dreams of Broadway dashed with her untimely death, she can only wonder what the future holds…and if a special someone has already been cast as her co-star. 

ReMade Season One: In one moment the lives of twenty-three teenagers are forever changed, and it’s not just because they all happen to die. “ReMade” in a world they barely recognize – one with robots, space elevators, and unchecked jungle – they must work together to survive. They came from different places, backgrounds, and families, and now they might be the last people on earth. Lost meets The Maze Runner in this exciting serial adventure.
 Season One will unfold across 15 episodes beginning September 14th, with a new installment dropping every Wednesday until the season finale on December 21st. Jump into this digital serial, available in both text and audio, and find out what the future of fiction holds.

Truth be told, I was expecting this to be a very REVEALING episode - about the world, about how these teens got here - and even though it wasn't, it was still quite a good episode!

Mirror Of Fate is the first episode by Gwenda Bond, and the first episode from the viewpoint of Seyah, who, despite the fact that we've known her from the very FIRST episode, we REALLY know nothing about except a) she's pretty and b) she's a good actress.

Seyah hasn't been a VERY active part of the past nine episodes, more going with the flow than taking the lead, and all that's ever been mentioned of her is from another's point of view while talking about how much Holden stared at her... Or so I remember.

It was quite fun going into the head of a new character. Seyah is half-persian, on her mother's side, which really led to some Eastern World pressures from her parents that as an India, I could really relate to.


I LOVED seeing how Gwenda Bond opened up this whole new character to us so skillfully, and in such a short amount of time, Seyah has suddenly gone from an Airhead Pretty Girl to someone REAL, if you know what I mean!

I also remember complaining in the last episode that NOTHING romantic had happened since the initial crushes, but FINALLY, that all went for a turn in this one with Holden and Seyah AND Inez and Seyah.

While this was an enjoyable episode, I'm sure the next one is going to be explosive, and I AM SO EXCITED FOR IT. Only five to go until the season finale!
