Bad Faith

Bad Faith is a story about Magda, a young woman living in the Haven, a community on an isolated island in the middle of a lake. The Haven is led by the elderly Lady Amaris and is made up of young women who shelter those they consider pure of heart and mind. To guard against corruption beyond the island, the community holds mandatory Apologia Assemblies, where members discuss misdeeds and assign punishments.

The Haven

Magda works in the Haven's Art Sect. She loves living there but dislikes its punishments, and her past makes her try to follow the community's strict rules. After a stressful Assembly, she walks in the nearby woods to clear her mind and discovers a mysterious building.

Her close friend Grace belongs to the Architectural Sect. She is sensitive and law-abiding, adores the Haven and cares for her loved ones. Cerise, a prominent member of the Writing Sect whose stories are highly regarded, acts hostile toward Magda. Eve leads the Research Sect; her papers are praised for promoting Haven values. Maria, head of the Art Sect, is a wise and nurturing presence to its members, while Lady Amaris leads the Haven with a steadfast air.
