tragedy

When the world fractured under the first aether eclipse, fragments of time began to bleed into one another. Now, in the skies above the fallen earth, the Astralis Academy trains a new generation of Chrono-Knights — warriors who bend the flow of time to defend what remains. Cael Drayen, a stoic prodigy haunted by his forgotten past, and Lyra Vance, a rebellious empath who can feel echoes of the future, find themselves drawn together by a fate neither can escape. As their memories intertwine and timelines begin to unravel, the line between dream and destiny blurs — and the truth behind the Eclipsed Horizon begins to surface. Romance, rivalry, and time-warping missions collide in this cinematic aetherpunk saga — a love letter to the golden age of fantasy RPGs, where emotion and spectacle share the same heartbeat. Inspired by the storytelling vision of the great Hironobu Sakaguchi. Discord channel here https://discord.gg/j7cyfskqQc Please copy and paste if its not clickable

[It's Genderbend!] The world has ended, apparently. I sat down on an overgrown patch of grass, contemplating about things. Soft and fair skin, a frail figure that could snap, lustrous long hair... And a fairly modest chest? Ah, is it that troupe? Where I turned into a girl. Surprising, that's for sure. ...But, does it have to be in a world like this? [Cover was made by a cool person, a friend]

In a world shattered by World War III, he was Death—the ultimate assassin, a ghost in the machine who ended the war by eliminating the men who controlled it. But when he wakes in a medieval realm of dragons and dark magic, he realizes one brutal truth: New world. Same monsters. Reborn as Eric, a man who only wanted peace, he’s dragged into a kingdom ruled by a corrupt crown… and something far worse happening in the shadows—experiments that twist humans into weapons. To protect the life he was never allowed to live, the legendary hitman must pick up the blade once more… and remind this world why Earth once feared his name. He saved one world by destroying its leaders. In this one… he’ll do it again.

“Hey! What's going on? Wh…why are you quivering? Why haven't you sealed his magic yet?” The mage didn't reply for a moment, the beads of sweat grew in numbers as his whole body was now totally drenched. “H…he… I can't! His aura, his mana, his magic is growing. He is growing rapidly, I can't tame him. I can't. He's too…” Meanwhile, in the shadow realm, Grey smirked as he lifted his hand and made a slashing motion in the air in front of him. “Dimensional Slash.” _ In a world teeming with mages. A world where more than half the human population had awesome affinities ranging from wind, earth to lightning and so on. Grey Dawn had none. He was weak, useless, magicless and most importantly… a cripple in terms of magic usage. Not until an accident where he almost brushed past death. Summoned by a celestial, the seal placed on his core was shattered and there he was appraised. Grey found out not only will he wield magic, he would come to become the strongest mage in existence with five affinities. Confident, he enrolled at Lunaria academy. One of the four great magical academies. Here, he meets awesome mages, forged bonds and most especially, rivalries. With his squad, Grey blitzed through enemies… portal breaks, dungeons, bandits, kingdom invasion, he was clearing them all. But it wasn't enough. The foe the world was up against were not weak by any means. The Otherworlders! Destroyers of planets, conquerors of worlds. Beings with destructive powers and backing. These were the kind of foes he was up against. Grey would learn that his magic isn't enough against them. And the Otherworlders won't be the only foes he would be up against. Demons, cocky celestials, powerful warriors— masters of Ki, Terrifyingly powerful clans and Ki warriors. He will realise that he would be needing something more. He would be needing to transcend his current self and status. He would need to evolve into something more so as to stand a fighting chance against the otherworlders and the much more terrible foes beneath the surface. He would need to become; The Supreme Magus! How will Grey Dawn achieve this title? How will he get worlds to hear of this name and tremble? How will he fare against interdimensional conquerors? How will he survive? How will his squad of humans and different races fare? And most importantly, what will be Grey's five affinities? Find out more in this awesome book and read how Grey's journey unfolds and blooms. __ “Wh-who are you? Wh-what even are you?” “...” “You really want to know who I am?” Grey demanded, lightning crackling around his hands. A sinister smile crept on his face hidden beneath his devilish mask as his glowing eyes narrowed at the man before him. “... They call me; The Supreme Magus.” “No-no way…” BANG—!

Vedia Aquila cleans up after the dead. At twenty years old, the wolf Beastkin supports her teenage brother by scrubbing blood from crime scenes and bleach from eviction sites. It's brutal work in the Bowery—the city's forgotten district where the poor are erased as efficiently as the stains Vedia removes. Then a strange job changes everything. Salt circles under sinks. Voices in empty closets. Apartments that feel wrong. Vedia discovers she has the Gift—the ability to cleanse hauntings, to make ghosts disappear. The Property Board takes notice. They offer her real money. Exclusive contracts. A way out of poverty. But every cleansing takes a piece of her. Black veins spread across her skin. Memories fade. And the victims she erases beg her not to. Too late, Vedia realizes the truth: she's not removing crimes. She's erasing people from existence itself. The Bowery isn't just a neighborhood—it's alive, ancient, and hungry. It feeds on absence. On the forgotten. On the displaced. And it's been cultivating Vedia since birth to become its next heart. Her mother died doing this work. Now Vedia has weeks before the transformation completes. She can accept her fate and protect her brother. Refuse and watch him suffer. Or fight an ancient god she cannot possibly defeat. Hope is a luxury the dispossessed cannot afford. A grimdark urban fantasy about class, erasure, and the cost of survival in a city that devours its own.

Dr. Zayne Li has a secret. Three years ago, the renowned cardiologist stumbled upon an impossible ice cave in the forest outside Linkon City. What he found inside changed everything—a portal to a nightmare realm where monsters hunt humans, where the laws of reality bend and break, and where survival means becoming something you never thought you could be. He barely escaped. And he's spent every day since sealing that cave, ensuring no one else suffers the same fate. Until Hunter Nana Wang follows him one night.Curious, reckless, and too brave for her own good, Nana is Linkon City's strongest hunter—trained to fight Wanderers, not the impossible creatures that exist beyond dimensions. When a surprise attack shatters Zayne's carefully maintained seal, both of them are pulled through the portal into Avalon: a broken city suspended between life and death, where demons, vampires, and hybrids hunt the few remaining humans. Separated by the portal's cruel logic, Nana wakes in an abandoned classroom with no weapons, no backup, and no idea how to survive. Within minutes, she's being hunted. Within hours, she's convinced she's going to die. Then she meets Mina—a survivor who's been trapped in Avalon for a month, who teaches Nana that the only way to escape this nightmare is to become a nightmare yourself.As Nana learns to fight creatures that shouldn't exist, as she loses people she comes to love, as she grows harder and stronger and more desperate, one thought keeps her going: Find Zayne. Escape together. Survive. But Zayne is fighting his own battle, alone in a realm where he's already spent three years learning to be a killer. And when they finally reunite, they discover that Avalon has one rule that changes everything: The only way out appears once a year, during the blood moon cycle, when thousands of vampires wake and hunt. And anyone bitten transforms instantly. One portal. One chance. Two people who love each other enough to sacrifice everything. In Avalon, love isn't just about living together. Sometimes it's about choosing who gets to live at all.

An ordinary cultivator - that was the best way to describe Zhao Yunxiao. Be it in terms of strength or talent, he had always been in the middle of the pack, neither excelling nor falling behind. However, he did not really think badly of his current situation. Some people were destined to become the stars in the skies, while some people were born to be like the rocks on the ground. The stars might be dazzling, but the rocks supported the earth itself. Both of them were necessary in order to maintain the balance of this world. As someone ordinary, Zhao Yunxiao did his best to live his ordinary life to the fullest. He was careful and meticulous, doing his best to make sure he understands everything fully instead of jumping into doing things. He knew his limits and did not dream of anything out of reach. Instead, all he wished for was to live a life of freedom. But one day, he realised that something seemed to be amiss. Perhaps he was mistaken all along. Perhaps even the rocks on the ground had their chance to shine under the right circumstances, even if only for the slightest of moments. This is the tale of an ordinary cultivator... until he was no longer ordinary. *** This story will be written for leisure and thus not be locked, but if you are feeling generous and wish to show your appreciation in monetary terms... https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/SweatingCloud

When Fantalia Doree was small she started with a big bang. A deadly killer who is at large commiting crimes she carve her victims and leaves her signature PFK making it look like a work of art which it was. The thrill of hunting down her preys makes her all the more daring at playing the game of cat and mouse with the detectives. The worst part is that publicly she was so angelic in all her looks and behavior that no one would ever think of the possibility as her being the killer, but then again who would ever consider a child with the looks and temperament of an angel to be so monstrous. For years she grew even more angelic and beautiful and still as careful as ever until that fateful day when a handsome detective stopped by and asked her advice. She could feel the pull and the way her heart swell whenever he looked at her and asked a simple question, that joy and longing at the same time and right then she knew there was something about him she had to see and she wanted him too. Special Detective Justice Swarie was assigned to the case because of his outstanding recommendation and expertise. He was also someone who loves the hunt but never got satisfaction. However before he was even assigned to PFK he was keeping an eye on it. It was the biggest case and that leaves him obsessed he was filled with excitement, a case that crawls under his skin. With each new PFK case there was even more exhilaration even more than he thought was possible. Once he had a brief run in with Fantalia Doree and found great comfort in her above expectation company. One thing led to another and before they know it he started visiting the forensic doctor regularly. Will Fantalia Doree kill Justice Swarie or will he turn her in when find out that his sweet forensic doctor who he treasure so much is his PFK he is hunting. ***SNIPPET*** "Senior, have a look at this", the forensic pathology team leader said in a rushed voice. " We found that the PFK on the body not only have a cursive style but look," There on the printed paper showing a picture of the bran on the body was tiny words that made the outline of the bold three letter signature. "This....!", Shocked and also excited at what he saw detective Swarie quickly masked his emotions carefully and said in a somber tone to no one in particular. "About time we got a lead don't you think?" He took up his coat with completely careful movements making sure not to show the nervous shake of his hand and turned to his team. " Now we have a new lead," he announced, "We need to find all mechanics who specializes in delicate inlaid designs, we also need to consults the professors at Groudil Collage of the arts so we can get a list of students who might have a possibility of creating this design. Any question?" No one said anything. "DISMISSED." They all got up and went about the task at hand. Leaving the police station they failed to realized that on the other side of the street was an ordinary looking inconspicuous car with a grinning woman looking at a tablet with an earpiece in her ear. She was zooming in on detective Justice Swarie and her eyes glazed over when she realized that he too had the same look of a hunter. 'yes that's the look I've been waiting for.... finally' she thought. She giggled like a love sick teenager then laughed right out over what she just discovered. Not only did they find out that her signature was made with inlaid words but they are going to see the old madam. ' That woman is even worst than I am.' she thought. "Ha ha ha ha.....they are in for a real turn around this time, I have to stop by with a gift for dinner." She drove away without another glance at the detectives knowing full well that they are right where they started and that her mentor will be so pleased with her she just might get the special tools that has been made with the outmost untraceable accuracy. 'WHO SHOULD I EXTERMINATE AS AN APPETIZER' She though looking around with the grin still in place.

In the far future, her world died. Under a gray sky and a broken sun, cities became skeletons of steel and concrete. Demonic invaders devoured the land, the forests turned to ash, and humanity survived only in ruins and sewers. She was one of the last. A nameless girl called Blondie by the soldiers who rescued her. A battlefield survivor. A healer born from a world that no longer grew anything. She learned to fight. She learned to hide. She learned never to trust. And then she died. When she opens her eyes again, she is no longer in a wasteland. She is inside the body of a kidnapped girl in the year 2006 — in a world overflowing with green forests, running water, summer air, and something she has never seen before: Normal life. But she is not normal. Her wounds close before your eyes. Her body heals from anything. Her presence feels… wrong. Silent. Observant. Unreadable. She doesn’t understand school. She doesn’t understand money. She doesn’t understand friendship. But she understands survival. Now stranded in a peaceful modern world that feels more alien than the demons she once fought, she must decide: Will she remain a weapon shaped by war? Or will she learn how to be human again? ---- Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

Ritsuka Izumi dies before she can ever hang her own sign over a restaurant door. On her forty-first birthday, the chef who carried other men’s careers on her plates is betrayed over one last “special” dinner. The next time her eyes open and Tokyi is gone. Ritsuka wakes in another body on a distant island duchy, in a world of patrons, relics, and a simmering holy war. Her new name is Julia Wynnee, only daughter of Savora’s ruling duchess, heir to a sunlit sea state rich in gold and monsters, starving for food and stability. She doesn’t care about thrones, prophecies, or playing savior. All Ritsuka wants is what was stolen from her: a kitchen of her own, a dining room full of honest mouths, a restaurant with her name on the door. If that dream now sits in the middle of a fragile duchy and a brewing holy war, she’ll grit her teeth and survive long enough to open the doors.

Mana is the essence of the soul and what builds up life, those who are able to manipulate this energy are labelled as Witches. But as a minority, they were hunted nearly to extinction during the Dark Ages, but due to their perseverance they have survived until now. Even then the Witches now are nothing but used as tools, a Witch walking the same streets as a human is unheard of and even shamed, even having a Witch as a family member would end up in prejudice by others.
