I don't think 'Shards' is a true story. It could be a piece of imaginative literature, crafted to entertain or convey certain ideas rather than recounting real events.
It could also be an internal identifier used by a company or a group. Maybe it's related to a game or a fictional universe that is not associated with adult themes. For instance, it could be a level or an area in a science - fiction based game.
The 'Shards of Glass' short story might be about brokenness, both literal and metaphorical. It could center around a character who is dealing with the aftermath of something shattering in their life, like a relationship or a dream. Maybe the shards of glass represent the fragments of their former self or situation.
Another good one is '999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors'. It has a really interesting and mysterious plot. You are trapped on a ship with eight other people and have to solve puzzles and make choices that will determine your fate and the fate of others. The story twists and turns and keeps you on the edge of your seat.
For beginners, 'Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney' is a great start. It has a simple enough gameplay mechanic where you just need to present evidence at the right time. The story is easy to follow and the characters are really charming. You get to be a defense attorney and solve some really interesting cases.
The 'A Crown of Shards' novel centers on a character's struggle to possess a unique and powerful crown. This leads them through a series of exciting and dangerous adventures, involving battles, alliances, and self-discovery.
