tragedy

Life is dark and meaningless. That was what it had taught every single day I'd been cursed to live it. And now, finally, it was coming to an end. My arm ached where the needle pierced the vein. Already, my fingers were numb, spots spinning in front of my eyes. Something clattered onto the pavement. The needle. It must have slipped out of my hand. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first sense of peace that I'd felt since...ever. But that was okay. It meant that there was no one to miss me, and no one I would miss. Well, perhaps there would be a few, but they could always find others to extract their cruel, sadistic pleasure from. My last breath was rough and shallow, the last beat of my heart pitifully fail. I sank to the alley floor, eyes closing, welcoming the blessed nothingness of the end. Only...death was supposed to be dark, wasn't it? And since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods?

The light that will eat out all the darkness in the world. Zoe, the most powerful light wizard in existence, is nearing her death. She's already over 10,000 years old and no man was able to capture her heart. The only partner she had was her cat. Her cat's name is Beru. Its color is black with a shade of emerald green. Its eyes are as hollow as the abyss. There's no pupil, no color at all. Looking at it will make you see the past and the future. Sitting in her chair made out of adamantium, the god mineral. She is reminiscing about her past. How she struggled from being an orphan, to being a slave and finally after being recognized having affinity with mana, she was saved and was taught about magic. Her breathing is getting rough. Her body is collapsing and her eyes are barely open. With her last breath, she uttered her last will to her precious cat. She said, "Find the most promising creature and impart to it all the knowledge that I have accumulated over 10 millennia." The cat did not respond, instead it only stared into her eyes. Zoe passed away with only one regret and that would be not experiencing what normal humans do, falling in love, having kids and growing old with someone she loves. Now that Zoe is gone. Beru is now the only one left inside the castle. The castle is located at the top of the tallest mountain in the north. With its harsh climate, having a temperature of minus 100 Fahrenheit (minus 100 celsius). There were countless adventurers who tried to explore the tallest mountain, hoping to encounter treasures. But what awaits them are the creatures hideous enough to scare the shit out of them. Those encounters with the monsters spread to all adventurers and no attempt was once again made to explore the North.

[The early chapters are admittedly slightly awkward to read at times (if you're well-studied in English), but they are grammatically correct. This is my first time writing a first-person novel and writing in general. I will change and update it soon, don't worry. Keep reading, the chapters improves over time.] The backrooms or the liminal rooms, such an enigmatic never-ending place. Most of the lost souls there are normal people with average capabilities and most of the time, they die. They don't last long and if the backrooms won't consume them, their own psyche will. No one can truly escape the backrooms, there is horror in infinity. However, what if the lost souls this time aren't your usual lost souls? What if they're familiar, what if they're characters from a series that you're fond of. Will they survive the liminal space? Their stories will connect and they'll handle the liminal rooms in their own way. Most of them will reject the backrooms, unwilling to surrender to it. Some will conquer it and even outright own it.

Everyone thinks a protagonist's life is pretty easy. I used to think like that too, but since the day I woke up in the body of Harry Potter, a timer on my eventual confrontation with the dark lord had begun. To survive, I have to grind spells, learn magic, and... seduce and corrupt witches? Wait, are you sure I arrived in the correct world? --- No AI was used in the creation of this story except for the images used. This is not a translation

Long before he set foot in Westeros, Prince Dragonzel of House Varezes was already something the world had never seen—a dragonlord not born of the House Targaryen, but forged in the distant Free Cities, where ancient Valyria’s lost knowledge still lingers in shadows. Hailing from a powerful foreign lineage that mastered both dragons and forbidden arts, Dragonzel arrives in Westeros not as a guest—but as a force that challenges the very foundation of noble bloodlines and tradition. In a land where legitimacy is everything, his existence alone is a threat. With his dragons, wealth, and unmatched intellect, he begins weaving a vast network of alliances—binding great houses, influencing trade, and reshaping the balance of power across the Realm. But Westeros stands on the brink of chaos. The brewing conflict between Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Queen Alicent Hightower threatens to ignite the devastating Dance of the Dragons. Dragons will rise, kingdoms will burn, and loyalties will be tested. Amidst this storm, Dragonzel walks a razor’s edge—ally, rival, or something far more dangerous. Because his goal is not merely to survive the coming war… …but to surpass the legacy of Valyria itself. ---

The fjord lay calm, its surface like polished glass, reflecting the leaden clouds hanging in the sky. Flocks of ravens circled back and forth, heralding the bitter northern winds soon to sweep southward. This was the very first scene the protagonist beheld after traveling through time to ninth-century Scandinavia. He had become nothing more than an ordinary self-sufficient farmer, with only a barren, desolate wheat field to his name. For centuries, the glory of the Roman Empire had crumbled into dust. The world lay shattered, kings waged endless wars against one another, and in this turbulent, dark Middle Ages, his first task was simply to survive—then, somehow, to find a way to end the chaos… ..........

An ordinary world exists beside another; one built on strength, secrecy, and survival. When long buried connections begin to resurface, the boundary between them weakens. A boy pulled from normalcy. A girl who has already learned to endure. A warrior chasing a name of her own. A prodigy weighed down by the cost of his brilliance. A presence born of sound, longing for something beyond the island that binds him. Anakoa is a hidden land, shaped by trials and unspoken rules. It does not reveal itself willingly, and it does not forgive those who trespass. As old wounds reopen and unseen forces begin to move, these lives converge some drawn by choice, others by fate. What waits beyond the veil is not a single story, but many intertwined, unfinished, and dangerous to uncover.

I rested my head on his chest, and he stroked my hair in a comforting manner. "I love you", he whispered softly in a deep tone. That was the first time he said it. And the first time I had accepted it. Love. ***************** Love isn't something Kiyomi Yamada ever wanted to understand. To her, it was a dangerous word — the kind that breaks people, the kind she promised herself to never believe in. But everything changes when an unexpected bond forms between her and Minato Shimizu, the quiet boy from Class 2A who always seems to be hiding something behind his calm eyes. As Kiyomi's once ordinary school life unravels into a tangle of laughter, secrets, and longing, she finds herself caught between friends growing apart — Akio's jealousy, Hinata's heartbreak, and Asahi's quiet care.

Power built the Murad empire. Blood secured it. Betrayal nearly destroyed it. Across India, New York, and beyond, Sohan Kadeon Murad reigns as one of the most feared men in the underworld. CEO of eight global empires and supreme leader of the Obsidian Triad, he rules with calculated brutality. His enemies vanish. His name commands silence. Yet even the darkest king had a weakness. His wife, Riyana. And their only daughter— Lilith Mahira Baneva. Born as the final heir. The true owner of everything. When greed consumes Sohan’s own cousins, a carefully orchestrated attack shatters the Murad family. A truck collision meant to eliminate Riyana and six-year-old Lilith leaves Riyana missing and presumed dead. Lilith survives—but her mind does not. Sohan unleashes hell on those responsible, wiping out bloodlines in a storm of vengeance before being imprisoned for ten years. His final command to his eight sons: No war among yourselves. Protect your sister. Keep her away from the darkness. While the brothers rise into powerful men—ruthless, disciplined, and loyal—Lilith grows up in a mental asylum, her brilliant mind trapped in the innocence of a child. Unknown to her brothers, someone close ensures she never heals, poisoning her recovery with damaging medication to keep her fragile… and unfit to rule. At sixteen, she returns home. Beautiful. Quiet. Mischievous. Broken. The empire legally belongs to her—but the world sees only a shattered girl holding pieces of herself together. Then comes the man powerful enough to rival the Murads. The feared leader of The Dominion Apex—half Russian, half American, Indian by blood. A king among kings. Cold. Strategic. Merciless. During a high-stakes alliance meeting, a single moment changes everything. He sees Lilith Mahira Baneva. And instead of weakness, he sees something no one else dares to look for. He takes her. What begins as possession slowly shifts into something far more dangerous—an obsession neither of them expected. In her silence, he finds calm. In his darkness, she finds protection. But beneath the fragile surface of the shattered heiress lies something waiting. Healing. Memory. Power. Will Lilith Mahira Baneva rise to reclaim the empire written in her blood? Will the ruthless king fall for the girl the world underestimated? Or will secrets, betrayal, and war tear apart what remains of the Murad legacy? In a world ruled by monsters, the most dangerous throne belongs to a broken queen.
