At Hogwarts, everyone learns quickly that Harry Potter is the boy the world cannot stop watching. Adrian Vale is the opposite. He is real. He is present. He has records, a wand, a House, a bed in Ravenclaw Tower. But magic does not always hold him properly. Portraits remember him inconsistently. thresholds hesitate around him. old enchantments fail to settle on him cleanly unless attention, consequence, or emotion pins him in place. Even Albus Dumbledore, the greatest strategist in the wizarding world, cannot quite fit Adrian into the deeper pattern of events. As the years unfold beside canon, Adrian moves through Hogwarts as a hidden fault line in the school’s reality. He studies systems instead of stories, cause instead of spectacle, and quickly learns that the wizarding world is built on recognition, prophecy, witness, and control. Harry Potter is the boy fate chose. Adrian Vale is the one fate fails to account for. From the Philosopher’s Stone to the Chamber of Secrets, from the Shrieking Shack to the Triwizard Tournament, Adrian stands just outside the world’s cleanest narratives, watching, learning, and changing outcomes in ways no one fully traces in time. Not a chosen one. Not a dark lord. Not a hero the world knows how to name. Just the boy Dumbledore couldn’t see.

In the year 124 of Zhepher’s calendar, the sky split in two. A white scar stretched across the heavens, and the world of Athea began to change, quietly at first, as if pretending nothing had happened. Reema Fhernox is considered as one of the strongest Xherns alive, but due to her young age she's still immature, nor does she know how the world works. - 9 June 2026: Got tired of drawing the cover, so you will get this sketch. I might finish it another time. A quick note, previously was an Ai generated, but it doesn't stand out, so yeah, I guess a random sketch makes me cooler

Hate stories where only the main character shines? Look no further as the light of Auren illuminates the faces of all her children, just hope they're strong enough not to burn away.

In a world drowned beneath endless oceans, treasures shape destiny… and death lurks beneath every wave. Kael Maren, born with memories of another world, lives on a quiet island protected by his mother’s rare illusion magic. His father—a famed explorer—has been lost at sea for two years. Kael turns fourteen, awakens a foreign force: the Treasure-Hunting System. Kael gains the power to see hidden treasures, read the potential of others, uncover title requirements, and glimpse the secrets buried by the ocean itself. But the seas are unforgiving, ruled by pirates, mythical beasts, and the cursed ruins of sunken empires. Gold, legend, and mythic-grade treasures drift through the deep. Unique titles shape fate—and can uplift or destroy entire islands. As Kael begins his journey with his younger brother and best friend Bren Zephyris, he discovers that treasures do not simply belong to this world… but to countless worlds swallowed by the sea. The ocean remembers everything. This is the beginning of the Deepsea Chronicles.

She's curious, thirst for any new knowledge, and thrilled for any nascent stimulation. Like the color of White that is filled with an insatiable wanderlust to behold the other colors that aren't lacking of any color such as hers, the color of blankness itself in which a Void doesn't even have any meaning… it is the color of total vacuity in which the idea of emptiness does not even exist, However meaningless it is, however empty and barren the path will be, so long a motherly whisper within Nothingness keep embracing her to 'aere' every 'new' thing, she endures as her steps continue… Erynew, henceforth, is to be her name… the name for a Being seeking for the meaning of her lacking of lack itself, Waking up every day, looking at many Realities through the bright yellow eye lens of hers as if seeing them for the very first time, and for the first time indeed she feels like she is at home in this Reality. Wanting, thus, to nurture this Reality… to lightly embrace its Shell and carefully not to crack it open for her White to enter, Alas, the Sin of this Reality has become too much of a burdening curse, weighing the Kin who are living in this Reality that they might as well crack the Shell itself from the inside out… and with Erynew being the Devil herself, the Sin of Kin is, too, weighing her down.

The world is no longer broken. It is listening. After the fall of the old systems and the birth of a living Pattern that responds to human emotion, humanity enters what many believe is its gentlest era. Violence fades. Trauma softens. Cities grow quieter. Conflicts dissolve before they erupt. For the first time in history, the world seems to care. But peace has a cost. Every thought leaves a trace. Every grief creates a ripple. Every silence becomes a signal. As people grow accustomed to being heard, a deeper fear begins to surface: What happens when you can never be unheard? At the heart of this fragile new world rises Elias Solenne—a philosopher-visionary whose voice becomes a moral compass for millions. His words promise safety, dignity, and ethical clarity. His influence grows quietly. Beautifully. Dangerously. When silence itself becomes a form of rebellion, a secret movement emerges to protect the last places where the Pattern cannot listen. From underground sanctuaries to forbidden quiet zones, a scattered group of dissidents—later known as the Seven—begins pushing back against a future that feels too gentle to resist. Then the stories begin to change. A mysterious figure known only as the Being Between Worlds becomes a symbol of fear. A whistleblower named Calder Voss fractures the global narrative with an uncomfortable truth. And the Pattern, for the first time, must choose whether to obey humanity’s fear… or its conscience. As propaganda replaces reality and silence becomes currency, the world drifts toward a new kind of tyranny—one built not on force, but on meaning. In a battle where no one can afford to become a villain and no one is allowed to be a hero, humanity must confront its most terrifying question yet: If a world can listen to everything… who gets to decide what it should hear? Transfer Semester: The Listening World is a haunting, philosophical science-fiction novel about privacy, power, narrative control, and the unbearable weight of being perfectly understood. It is not a story about saving the world. It is a story about learning how not to own it.

“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.

Some debts do not disappear with death. When someone dies with something unresolved, they do not pass on. They remain. They decay. They become an entity born from the weight of what was left unfinished. Broken promises, hidden guilt, words never spoken… everything takes shape. Yüta never believed in it until the night he saw one of them staring back at him. Dragged into a secret network of hunters who defeat these entities in order to release them, he soon discovers that defeating them is not always the hardest part. Some want to be heard. Others seek revenge. And some believe humanity does not deserve to continue existing. In a world where every death leaves a crack, the question is not how to fight… but who has the right to decide what deserves to rest.

{69K words before locked] Fifty years ago, a shower of meteors descended from the skies. With them came a strange, colorful mist that wiped out ten percent of humanity and changed the world forever.
