tragedy

The world has forgotten the Jinn. Once, the magical beings of Klysium walked openly among humanity, bound to mortal soulmates known as Qarins. Together, they fought a devastating war against the hellfire-wielding Yfryths and sealed them away. Thousands of years later, that war has become little more than myth. But the prison is breaking. As hellfire returns to Uniyani, seven humans carrying ancient Jinnblood begin to awaken—and seven powerful Jinn cross into the mortal world to find the Qarins they have waited centuries for. An herbalist. A blacksmith. A treasure hunter. A necromancer. A thief. An assassin. A pirate. Seven humans. Seven Jinn. Seven bonds that may be the world's greatest hope—or exactly what the Yfryths need to destroy it. The First War became legend. The Second will bring the Jinn back.

A story about many heroes fighting for the same cause.. To save the universe! But.. From what? And how did things end up this way? Book 0 covers this, and is currently ongoing.

In ages past when hope was spent and low, All creation stood bound within its quiet repose. Then did Reality tremble from a boundless might, And the earth quaked across the starless night. A star descended from the vast beyond, And bound reality in grief's most tragic bond. It stole the future in its greedy plight, Yet wept in secret at the ruined sight. With painted smiles it played a gentle part, And strove to heal each broken, wounded heart. Yet the star never found the words to seek amends, The answer on the tip of its tongue which it couldn't transcend. Its guilt endured, a weight upon its boundless soul, Awaiting forgiveness from the broken world. Wherefore to him whose destiny it had reft, It turned to mend the soul that it had left. The Bereft was lost, struggling with his blight, Yet the star became his new, endearing light. Until at last the end drew near, And to eternity the star must steer. In passing through the void it set things right, Returning the future it had plight. No soul recalled the star from then on, Save for the Bereft… whose longing was not gone.

Beneath a blood-red moon, a lone samurai fights a battle that seems destined to end in tragedy. As his comrades fall and darkness consumes the battlefield, one final clash leaves everything uncertain. But what if the end of one story is only the beginning of another? Far from the horrors of war, a young warrior stands at the beginning of a journey he cannot yet understand. With little more than determination and a world of possibilities before him, he must discover what it truly means to wield a sword—and what it means to protect the people who matter most. In a world shaped by ancient magic, powerful warriors, mysterious creatures, and forgotten secrets, every friendship carries meaning, every choice has consequences, and not every enemy is what they seem. As bonds are forged and dangers emerge, fragments of something unsettling linger at the edges of his understanding. A crimson moon. A battlefield. A darkness that refuses to be forgotten. And somewhere beyond the horizon, a fate waiting to be challenged.

Life is dark and meaningless. That's what it had taught me every single day I'd been cursed to live it. But now, finally, that would all 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?

Jin Yeong lived an ordinary life. He worked an ordinary job, went home to an ordinary apartment, and was the kind of man nobody ever remembered. That all changed the day the sky cracked open over Seoul. A voice echoed across the world, mocking humanity's weakness. Monsters flooded the streets, cities fell in a single night, and every survivor was given a skill to fight back. Some awakened the power to control fire, lightning, or the earth itself. Jin awakened Limitless Weapon Mastery, a skill that let him use any weapon at its full potential and nothing more. Without magic or special powers, he seemed to have drawn the weakest hand of all. But in a world where survival meant fighting with whatever was within reach, Jin soon discovered that his skill held far more than anyone expected. With nothing but his skill and the will to protect the people beside him, Jin began his journey through a broken world, where anything he holds can kill.

[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.

I am the same guy (Venerable Mountt Tai) trying to publish this on Royal Road. A normal Warhammer 40k fan while listening to some majorkill videos talking about the emperor and his sons. Thought to himself, "Wow the Emperor was a dick, I bet I can do better." Yet he never imagined a certain dick would take it personally and drag him into the 40k verse to stand by those words. Note: I'm completely new to writing so my format will be weird until I get used to writing. I'm writing this because I'm a huge WH:40k fan and I've always wanted to write something myself. I've been learning lore in my off time but there's still a lot I don't know. So don't expect any diamonds here, just inconsistencies.

A crossover story: [Re:Zero] and [Blue Archive].----- Natsuki Subaru's joy at being transported to another world was short-lived!

This is the story of his struggle in the chaotic Kivotos, which teems with conspiracies and the sounds of bullets.

Listen to me closely. Never, and I mean NEVER, leave a hate comment on a game forum right before you die. My name used to be... well, it doesn't matter. I was a 34-year-old salaryman who died in the stupidest way possible. How? I got slapped to death for grabbing a high school girl’s "assets". Wait, hold on! Don't look at me like that! It wasn't my fault, okay? My hand just moved on its own! It was just a tiny, split-second intrusive thought! Come on, you guys reading this—don't act like saints. You’ve had those dark urges too, right? You’ve wanted to grab something forbidden at least once in your life, right?! RIGHT?! Anyway, she slapped me. So hard my soul literally ejected from my body. I thought that was the punishment. I was wrong. When I opened my eyes, I was in [Legends of Valtheris]. Yes, that trash game. The one with the cliché plot where the world ends because some teenage students get their hearts broken. And the worst part? I didn't become the Hero. I didn't become the Villain. I became Revan von Alstaire. The background character. The loser. The guy I literally insulted online five minutes before I died. I called him a "Simp" and laughed at his "Tiny D*ck." Fate is truly a comedian. Now, I’m destined to be the bullied lackey of the future Villainess, Sylvia von Vespera. The game script says I should lick her boots, accept her abuse, and die with her like a loyal dog. Screw that. Remember my last comment? "Revan is such a loser! Tiny dck! If I were you, instead of bowing down, I would squeeze her boobs and own her completely! Garbage character!" Well, it seems God took that personally. Fine. You want a show? I’ll give you a show. I won’t be a simp. I won’t filter my words anymore. I’ll let my intrusive thoughts win. I’ll turn this trash plot upside down—even if I have to slap every "Genius" in this academy to do it.

“Everything comes to an end,” that is what Riku, an ordinary young man, will be forced to learn far sooner than he ever imagined. Mistakes and immaturity are among the consequences of *that* tragedy.

Book Title : Organic Override Genre: Sci-fi Fantasy | Biopunk | Psychological Thriller Tone: Apocalyptic. Poetic. Synopsis: --- Overview Julio was a planet built on technology, silence, peace, and second chances. But when an ancient biotech parasite known as the Bloom awakens from the soil of Momonato Rethabiri Kanō, everything begins to change. Machines start to flower. Satellites speak in forgotten tongues. And humanity—what’s left of it—begins to dream in roots and rhythm. At the center of it all is a small crew of extraordinary individuals: Jakku, a stoic yet soft-hearted warrior; Gift, a sympathetic survivor shaped by grief and experience; Maiku, a hybrid soldier straddling past and future; Matthew, their elemental dragon companion; and Reen, a tech-mind unraveling the buried secrets of Julio’s archives. Together, they face a world where the boundaries between flesh, mind, and memory are dissolving. The Bloom seeks to spread its influence, choosing Maiku as its next herald—but he refuses unity. In rejecting the Bloom, he fractures something sacred, awakening a force more dangerous than anyone anticipated. Once allies—like Jiro, now a Wither born of death and rage—rise black-veined and silent, embodying what the Bloom promised but failed to deliver. Peace becomes plague; harmony becomes chaos. --- Conflict and Stakes As the Bloom evolves, the world transcends destruction. Time folds. Physics shatters. People merge. Consciousness intertwines. Boundaries dissolve. Humanity is no longer merely threatened—it is rewritten. To survive, the crew must confront not only the Bloom’s Core, but the ultimate question imposed on every lifeform it touches: > “Do you want to be healed… or do you want to be free?” In this world, not all flowers bloom. Some burn. Some whisper. And sometimes, the ones who break away are the ones the roots fear most. --- Core Themes 1. Memory and Reality: How belief, perception, and narrative shape the world, morality, and identity. 2. Sacrifice and Growth: True heroism is measured in endurance, humility, and love, not domination. 3. Legacy and Autonomy: Generational change, letting go, and the idea that freedom cannot be forced. 4. Human Spirit: The story emphasizes connection, forgiveness, and resilience over violence or conquest. 5. Peace and Renewal: The saga concludes with spiritual restoration, the reaffirmation of life, and the reclamation of freedom. --- Tone and Style Atmospheric and Poetic: Narration reflects memory, perception, and the weight of choices. Cinematic Action: Battles are vivid, strategic, and infused with elemental, technological, and metaphysical stakes. Philosophical Depth: Blends epic biopunk sci-fi with meditations on morality, grief, and the essence of humanity. Emotional Resonance: Balances intense action with moments of tenderness, quiet reflection, and transcendence. --- Final Synopsis (Condensed) In a world where life itself can be rewritten, a small crew of flawed humans and a dragon companion confront a force that bends reality, perception, and belief. From whispered threats to apocalyptic battles, they endure loss, grief, and impossible choices. Through sacrifice, courage, and the quiet power of human connection, they restore memory, freedom, and spirit—not through domination, but through love, resilience, and forgiveness. In the end, the Bloom and it's structure falls, humanity is restored, and the world moves forward—not because heroes dictated it, but because life itself refused to be silenced. The Age of Flesh ends. The Age of Spirit begins. --- Closing Thought Organic Override is more than a story of war, power, or rebellion—it is a meditation on the human spirit. It asks: what does it mean to be truly free, to endure, to remember, and to forgive? It reminds readers that sometimes the hardest battles are within, and the bravest acts are not of conquest, but of love, endurance and letting the world breathe on it's own.
