Shifting Blame
Eleven years ago, in the small town of Summit Creek, New South Wales, a Gate between worlds appeared. In the seven seconds it was open, sixty-three known non-humans were dragged through and stranded when the Gate snapped shut. These Others included giants, shapeshifters, witches, dryads and merrow.
To help them assimilate into human society until they could go home – if a way could ever be found to reopen the Gate and send them home – the Australian Government set up the Department of Non-Human Affairs and declared Summit Creek a restricted zone.

Kear sighed, glancing up and down the street. Grant wasn’t that much different to Collins Road, where she lived. The same neat houses, made of wood or brick, set in the middle of tamed lawns, trees, bushes and flower beds behind wood paling or wire mesh or brick fences.
The same neat gardens, filled with plants that were both familiar and totally different – there were no virikendras here! She missed the tall stemmed plants with their tiny sky-blue globes of puffball flowers. Her mother had grown them all around their small cottage, their colour vibrant against the red-brown bricks. The closest thing to virikendras here were wattles, but they were mostly yellow or red. Last summer, Kear had
