The Lost Guild: Beginning

Laeirok
One ordinary night, Adam and Max log onto Discord, ready for a laid-back gaming session with friends. But when they drift off, Adam awakens alone on an uncharted shoreline in a world that’s anything but familiar—a world where magic rules and danger lurks in every shadow. With no idea why they were summoned or even if they’re meant to survive, Adam and Max have no choice but to push forward, venturing into a dark and hostile forest filled with threats beyond imagining. This strange realm brims with diverse regions, magical creatures, and otherworldly races, each with their own agendas. Here, a mysterious system monitors their every move, granting them strange powers and a path forward. While Max walks the unpredictable path of fire—and perhaps more—Adam’s journey twists into something darker. Newfound abilities in combat and blood magic hint at potential, but survival demands more than strength: it demands sacrifice. Forced to adapt in this unforgiving world, Adam and Max cling to one glimmer of hope: the discovery that others like them might be scattered across the realm. Determined to find their friends, they embrace the adventurer’s life, joining with allies to form The Lost, a guild dedicated to growing stronger, gathering resources, and unearthing the truths hidden in the shadows. The Lost Guild is Adam’s journey through a world of heart-pounding challenges and chilling secrets, where he and Max must face both the marvels and merciless realities of a land shaped by magic, monsters, and mysterious powers. In this realm, every choice counts, and the line between friend and foe is as thin as a blade’s edge. For now I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com as well.

The Bastard's Gambit

The Bastard's Gambit She died with her empire in ruins and her enemy's satisfaction as the last thing she ever saw. She woke up in someone else's coffin. The body belongs to Evelyn Ashford — bastard-born fifth daughter of the Duke, buried two days ago after falling from a gallery at the city's most notorious pleasure house. The household has already moved on. The bridal chamber has been quietly dismantled. No one is coming to mourn her. No one knows she is no longer the girl they buried. The soul now inhabiting that body belonged to a ruthless businesswoman who built an empire from nothing, survived a decade of betrayal and sabotage, and died on the morning of her final victory when a desperate old man chose a carriage crash over public humiliation. She remembers everything: every ledger, every negotiation, every lesson learned the hard way about what powerful men do to women who get too close to their secrets. She has no intention of dying twice. The problem is the world she has woken into. A kingdom where bastard daughters have no legal rights and no path forward. A household where every woman in it has spent years perfecting the art of small cruelties. A Duke for a father who responds only to logic and mutual advantage, never to sentiment. A Prince who dissolved her betrothal by letter before dawn on her wedding day and has not thought about her since. Or so he believes. Within days of climbing out of that coffin, Evelyn has read the household accounts and found a pattern no one else was looking for. Within a week, she has negotiated her way into the Duke's study and out of the east wing's deliberate neglect. Within a month, she has exposed a fraud that reaches further into this household than anyone has admitted, forged an alliance with a woman who has every reason to destroy her, and caught the attention of a man who wears an iron mask and moves through this city's political architecture like something that was never meant to be seen. He finds her interesting. She finds this dangerous. Prince Roland is colder than she expected and more complicated than she was prepared for. He places her in the household of his obsession — a courtesan named Pearl Harte whose situation is more politically entangled than anyone has said — and calls it an assignment. His body registers her transformation before his mind admits what the registration means. He treats her like a tool. He cannot stop watching her like something else entirely. The man in the iron mask offers her a wager: make his fallen associate a functioning political force in this court, and he will disappear from her life forever. Fail, and she belongs to him completely. She accepts. He adds one condition after she has already said yes. *Do not develop genuine feeling for him.* *Because he was me, once.* She does not ask what that means. She should have asked. Somewhere in this city, a man has been given her name and a set of instructions he will begin executing at first light. She does not know this. She is too busy building something that looks, from the outside, like the impossible transformation of a girl everyone dismissed — and feels, from the inside, like the most dangerous gamble of two lifetimes. She has already died once. She is not finished yet. --- *The Bastard's Gambit* is a medieval political romance featuring a transmigrated female lead, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension, court intrigue, and a mystery that rewrites everything you thought you knew from the very first chapter.

TOM RIDDLE HOGWARTS A NEW BEGINNING

Before He Became The Dark Lord… He Was Just A Boy. Born from a forbidden love potion and abandoned by the father who never wanted him, Tom Marvolo Riddle grows up feared and alone in Wool’s Orphanage. Strange things happen around him — toys shatter, doors lock themselves, shadows obey his silent rage. The other children call him cursed. The nuns call him dangerous. And when his only friend, Mary Polly, meets a tragic end at his hands, the entire world brands him a monster. But one letter changes everything. Albus Dumbledore arrives with an invitation to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. For the first time, Tom steps into a world where his power has a name… and a legacy. Armed with a wand of yew and phoenix feather, a mysterious vault at Gringotts, and eyes that burn an unnatural green, Tom enters the ancient halls of Hogwarts. He meets the proud pure-blood Lucius Malfoy, crosses paths with the golden-boy James Potter, and feels the Sorting Hat whisper secrets no one else can hear. In Slytherin’s dungeons, ambition takes root. Old bloodlines stir. Whispers of the Gaunt name echo through the castle walls. Some are chosen by fate. Others forge their own. This is the story of the boy who would become Voldemort — told from the very beginning. A tale of power, pain, friendship, betrayal, and the slow birth of darkness.
