The Last Godfall: Transmigrated as the Young Master

They call me Vencian Vicorra… third son of a noble house. A prodigy born for greatness. They couldn’t be more wrong. I’m Luke. I woke in his body, carrying his memories and his burdens… but none of his gifts. Without any magic or training and no clue how I even got here. A midnight ritual tied my life to a fate I never wanted... my family is falling apart under charges of treason, my engagement ended without a word from me, the court watches every move. And somewhere, my death is already written. To survive, I must do the impossible... wear the mask of talent and become the man everyone expects. I’ll learn to lie with conviction and find secrets worth killing for. But every secret I uncover drags me closer to a truth that could end more than my disguise. Fail, and I’ll lose the only life I’ve found worth living. Succeed, and I might discover what killed the real Vencian... and why my death may be the key to something darker. A slow-burn story of supernatural investigation, hidden schemes, and buried secrets, where every lie reveals a deeper truth. Behind noble courts and sacred cathedrals lies a world ruled by celestial laws and occult myths, where power demands the sacrifice of identity, and the fall begins long before corruption takes hold.

Pawns : Rise Against the Strings

What if the thoughts in your head aren't actually yours? Picture this: someone's losing their mind trying to save the person they love most. There's a voice on the phone—cold, synthetic, playing games. Riddles with impossible answers. A countdown ticking toward something unthinkable. They're racing through traffic, heart pounding, memories surfacing like shrapnel. Every decision feels urgent. Every emotion feels real. But here's the thing that'll keep you up at night: None of it was supposed to work. The riddles? Designed to have no right answer. The call? Never meant to save anyone. The choices? An illusion wrapped in desperation. And that voice on the other end—the one pulling strings with such cruel precision? They have no idea someone's pulling theirs too. See, while our victim is breaking down, convinced their panic is their own, and while the tormentor is getting off on their power, drunk on control... There's someone else. Sitting in a dark office. Watching both of them on different screens. Smiling at how perfectly the pieces are moving. The victim can't see their strings. The tormentor can't feel the hand moving them. And that's the whole point. This is a story about control so deep it controls the controllers. About how every emotion you think is genuine—love, fear, guilt, even the sick thrill of having power over someone—might just be responses someone programmed into you before you even knew you existed. About the possibility that free will is just a story we tell ourselves while we follow invisible scripts. One person thinks they're fighting for survival. Another thinks they're the puppet master. But both are dancing. And neither of them chose the music. Because real control doesn't look like chains. It looks like freedom. It feels like choice. It sounds like your own voice in your head. Until you realize it was never yours at all.

Lord of the Golden Flame: The Embers of Chaos

The world of Prithibi is dominated by the sprawling, prosperous kingdom of Luminara, a civilization anchored by the colossal Church of Luminus and its absolute control over the mystical, intrinsic abilities known as Sins. This established order, however, is constantly threatened by unpredictable chaos: the horrific spiritual entities known as Calamities. ​The story centers on Aris, a young, highly intellectual country boy. His journey begins not in the halls of power, but in the quiet obscurity of his homeland, before a catastrophic spiritual disturbance triggers his sudden and violent Awakening. Aris is transformed into a Sinner— ​Hunted and overwhelmed by his new reality, Aris is unexpectedly saved by the elite agents of the Church—the Sinner trio known as the Order of the Cross. Recognizing his unprecedented potential, Aris is brought into the very heart of the Authority, joining the Church with the explicit, demanding purpose of protecting the world from the Calamities. ​Aris must rapidly assimilate into the Church's strict doctrine and learn to control his volatile power, all while navigating the immense scale and complex politics of the capital, Luminus. His path forces him to travel across the world of Prithibi with his new companions—the disciplined commander Merlin, the ruthless analyst Genius, and the chaotic powerhouse Lucky—facing down spiritual threats and discovering the true nature of the Sins. ​As the Calamities escalate, Aris realizes the ultimate threat lies not only within Prithibi, but beyond its known borders. His journey culminates in the monumental global conflict known as the War of Flames, where Aris and his allies must face an existential challenge to conquer the world beyond the flames—a final, desperate battle to expand the reach of Order and secure the future of Prithibi from forces far greater than any Calamity they have encountered before.
