tragedy

The Forgotten Genesis Sect In a young multiverse growing on one of the leaves of the Tree of the Beginning and the End, a quiet man lives alone in a ruined library. He writes books. Thousands of them. He believes every single one is a failure. Ash Lionheart cannot remember his own name or face. Mirrors refuse him. Still water warps him. Descriptions collapse into static before they can settle. He remembers the war that erased his home, the laughter of a civilization that refused to kneel, the scent of burning Palace halls, and the faces of those who died smiling. He remembers everything except the man at the center of it all. For ten years he has repaired shelves, cooked simple meals, and filled page after page in a desperate attempt to reconstruct himself. The books he calls failures contain cultivation paths capable of rewriting multiversal law, war records that contradict five hundred thousand years of official history, and the living doctrine of a sect that once terrified Heaven, Hell, gods, demons, and emperors alike: "No being is born to kneel." One storm-black night, a wounded Holy Daughter collapses at his gate, hunted by vagrant cultivators. She screams for help. Ash opens the door. To the world, he is a quiet library master in the wilderness the Rain Scholar, the Master of Failed Books, the Nameless Gatekeeper. To the girl he saves, he is an unfathomable hidden expert. To the ancient powers that still remember the Great War, his existence is a cosmic insult. The First Heavenly Genesis Sect was supposed to be gone. Its Palace erased. Its doctrine buried under five hundred millennia of carefully maintained lies. Yet the library is not a library. The books are not books. And the broken man who cannot see his own reflection is the last living ember of the most feared, most beloved, and most thoroughly murdered civilization in creation. As disciples begin to gather crippled geniuses, demon-blooded outcasts, cursed princesses, beastkin exiles, and the discarded of a world that measures worth by bloodline and Heaven’s approval the ruined halls start to wake. Jade slips choose their readers. The Broken Bell trembles. And every “failed” page Ash writes pulls a dead age one step closer to resurrection. The world has spent half a million years believing the Genesis Sect was a cautionary tale of chaos and corruption. It is about to discover the truth was far more dangerous: They taught freedom so completely that even Heaven looked optional. And the last disciple is still writing.

The Dracula Empire is the most powerful criminal empire in the world, ruling the underworld through three branches stretching across China, South Korea, and Thailand. Unlike every other mafia syndicate, its throne belongs to one family—the women of the Ling bloodline. Among them stands Ling Zhao. Feared across continents as the God of Death, she is a woman whose name alone can bring nations and criminal empires to their knees. Wherever she wages war, rivers of blood follow, and no enemy is ever left alive. To challenge Ling Zhao is to sign your own death warrant. After the brutal murder of her parents, Ling Zhao dedicates her life to protecting the only family she has left—her cousin—and to preserving the empire built by generations of the Ling family. Then Lao Zhan appears. One reckless act turns him into Ling Zhao's greatest enemy, igniting a war between two hearts that should never have crossed paths. But hatred slowly gives way to an irresistible attraction, forcing them to choose between love and loyalty. Yet peace is an illusion. Hidden conspiracies, betrayals from within, and enemies waiting in the shadows threaten to destroy everything Ling Zhao has fought to protect. As the empire descends into chaos, she must decide whether love is worth risking the throne—or whether the God of Death was never meant to have a happy ending. In an empire where power is inherited through blood, betrayal is unforgivable, and mercy is weakness... only one question remains. Can the deadliest woman in the world protect both her empire and the man destined to become her greatest weakness?

A mage from distant lands. Hated by the world, she carries its secrets to the lands of the immortal, the demonic and the divine, while being harassed by a certain Dark Lord. --- Author's note: I got bored so, I made this. My grammar isn't the best, plus I'm starting to suspect both my breaking keyboard and failing autocorrect is scheming against me, so sorry about that. I made this while drawing inspiration from my half-baked knowledge of different stuff I've read as well as a story I wrote in secret back in high school (that I never showed anyone, or finished). I wanted to include as many different things as I possibly could when i started writing this stuff which is probably why it is such a mess (especially the names. I wanted to use names from different places in the world, but it got confusing.) I don't want to offend anyone or make any statements on anything in my writing. It is mostly just for self-amusement. That being said, if you like it then good for you. And if you don't, then why are you still here? Shoo! Go! Get out of here! Anyways, enjoy! Oh look! My note is longer than the synopsis! Lets make it longer! Oh look, a butterfly! Whee! Byeeeee!

Orphaned and raised in the remote Thousand Cloud Village, Yun Zhen dreams of becoming a legendary immortal despite having no path toward cultivation. But when a mysterious force descends upon his village and takes everything from him, he obtains an ancient sheath tied to a forgotten past and begins a journey into a world far larger and more dangerous than he ever imagined.

In the far reaches of space, where empires rise and fall in silence, a rogue crew aboard a ship unlike any other carves its path through the void. Their leader — enigmatic, dangerous, and driven by something deeper than conquest — leaves a trail of havoc wherever he goes. But this isn’t just a story of rebellion. It’s a story of purpose. Of fate. Of whether the stars themselves can be bent to one man’s will. TARTARUSIOS blends high-stakes action with mystery and mythic undertones. The ship is more than metal — it’s legend. The crew, more than criminals — they’re chosen. And as their journey unfolds, the question remains: will they reach their goal, or will destiny rewrite their course?

“If only I had known of the dark days ahead, I would have said no.” Three hundred years ago, the sun was devoured by the Silver Moon, an unknown celestial being that descended from the endless dark of the stars. It claimed the sky for itself and unleashed a ceaseless horde of monsters on mankind, the Qilesh. For centuries, the Empire stood against this horror, fighting in the name of their lost god, Harras. Every child of the Empire has to do their part to free the sun from the Silver Moon's grasp. Liron wants to do so, too, but his black hair marks him as an outcast, a bad omen that will bring nothing but doom. After giving up on his dreams, he is chosen to become a Knight Dracon, dragon riders who have battled the Qilesh since the sun was stolen from mankind. But fate was never kind to Liron. Through a shared vision of the future, Liron is shown murdering the Emperor, with the Empire and their world in ruin. In his final moments, the Emperor declares Liron to be a traitor and orders his execution. Hunted by the heroes he once admired, Liron is forced to flee. His only refuge lies with the Resistance, a group of rebels determined to destroy the Empire. As he struggles to survive and grow stronger, Liron begins to unravel the many secrets behind the Empire, the war against the Qilesh, and the true nature of the Silver Moon. The same secrets that drove his future self to end it all.

Xu Yang died.At least,that was supposed to be the end.When he opened his eyes again,he found himself lying in a cold forest,his body covered in wet black fur.He tried to move,but froze when he saw four small paws in front of him.He was a cat.Not just any black cat—a low-level cat demon inside a cultivation novel he had once read. A novel he never finished. Before Xu Yang can even process his new life,a cold voice suddenly sounds in his head. [System activated.] "...What?" [Host has been assigned nine lives.] Xu Yang blinks. [These lives are not blessings.] His smile disappears. "...What do you mean?" [Every life has a destined death.] "Excuse me?" [Death is mandatory.] Xu Yang stares into the distance. "Then why give me nine lives?!" [You may ask again after your first death.] "That's even worse!"

What would you do if almost everyone around you saw you as a hindrance or not at all? What if your own father was one of those who wished you gone? That is the story of Rosemary's life. Ever since the death of her mother during accident where only she survived, Rose has felt useless. Despite her best attempts to ignore the hurtful glances and words of the royal court and her father, she can't help but feel like a wilted flower. It becomes so bad that she considers ending it all, until she is rescued by a handsome young man with cold violet eyes who promises to change her world. ---- Before long, I reached a stone bridge overlooking Kaguya river. Luckily for me, the place was empty at the moment. Although, would anyone have even bothered saving a wretch like me? At most, they probably would have just watched as I met my end in a moment of morbid curiosity. And as I stood at the edge, I remembered all the times I had cried. All the times I had hurt. But now, I was ready. I smiled as the wind whipped around me. It was time to end it. Turning around, I let my body fall backwards into the river. The sky was a sea of stars. The city lights around me sparkled like gems. It was so beautiful. For the first time in a long time, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. I didn't regret it. No, I had finally found the courage to stand up for myself in my very own way. The water was high, so the fall itself didn't kill me instantly as I had hoped. As the river enveloped me, I closed my eyes. This was the end of my journey. A journey full of misery and tragedy. If there was another life, I hoped it would be better than this one. "Sis!" I heard a voice scream. Orlin! My brother came for me? What was he doing here? Had he followed me? But why? Did he care about me? Or was it just pity? No, right? Surely at least one person in this world loved me. Why had I given up on myself so soon? I knew he loved me. Yet, I still went through with this stupid decision. I allowed those girls and Father's words inhibit my better judgment... "Sis, where are you? Rose! Please show yourself! I want to talk!" Ore yelled at the top of his lungs. Right, my life was not all misery and tragedy. There were faint glimmers of joy and hope left. Ore was a big part of that. How selfish of me... I was actually about to abandon my brother. I tried to resurface, but my swimming skills weren't the best. To make matters worse, the current was far too strong. If not for the current, I would have at least been able to dog paddle over to the edge with some effort. My right hand broke through the fierce waters and was yanked by another hand. I was pulled out of the murky depths and saw a pair of cold violet eyes staring back at me. Father? No, it wasn't him. Although, those eyes felt familiar. Before I could make out the face of my rescuer clearly, darkness swept over me. Was it too late? I didn't want to die... Not anymore!

A Love Born in Lies A love born in silence. A past buried in shadows. A heart caught between truth and illusion. --- I don’t remember who I was. Not the girl in the mirror. Not the life I left behind. All I know is this mansion… And him—Professor. My husband. Cold. Untouchable. Mysterious. A man who says I belong to him… Yet looks at me like he’s already lost me. He doesn’t smile. He barely speaks. But the way he watches me— Like he's guarding something he’s terrified to break— it haunts me more than the gaps in my memory. Then come the fragments. A sister’s voice. A forgotten diary. A flower shop. A crash. And the moment I start to remember… everything starts to fall apart. --- What if the man I live with is part of the lie? What if the truth is more dangerous than the illusion I’m living in? What if… the love I’m falling into is the one thing I was meant to escape?

They called him a demon. They spat on him in the streets. They let him eat alone for twelve years. And when the Heavenly Screen flashed across the sky—showing Naruto Uzumaki as the man who would end everything—the first thing he whispered wasn't rage or vengeance. It was: "Why didn't anyone tell me my parents died for me?" This isn't a story about a hero turning evil. It's about a boy who loved too hard in a world that only taught him how to bleed. And when the screen revealed everything Konoha buried—the lies, the cover-ups, the bodies in the basement—Naruto didn't become a monster. He just stopped pretending to be their hero.
