Terra II, a world split into vast planes, where deserts stretch ceaselessly and horrors—roamed without rest. It is a land scarred by self made nightmares that never fade. The Common Era, where the concept of happiness has been abandoned. No story begins with joy, and none end with peace. One mistake—a misplaced word, a fleeting gesture—is all that it took. Strength was never the problem. ▄▀█ █░░█▄▀ has survived long enough to know that looking strong, feeling strong, and being strong are three different lies people tell themselves to keep moving. Terra is heavy. The roads are long and boundless like the deserts ▄█ █▀░ █▄█ had walked. And family...family—that has been stripped away. Once? Twice? no, Thrice? You’ve walked. You’ve run. You’ve shot at everything. You've seen your friends perish away, your self made family rotting away, and how do you cover it? By carrying a carload of supplies. But strip it away. What is left behind? ———————— I'm pretty nervous how this version will be received and since i went for both magic and a modern setting. I'm not really good as creating things so i took inspiration from some well known media, so if it seems familiar, i tried as best i could to make it my own. but idk. Lets see, it starts to pick up the pace slowly. It's a slow born sort of thing. short ass rant, lol. Kristen out, peace.

Blodeuwedd Morningstar awakens as an amnesiac thousand-year Slumberer in the 101st Asylum, the highest chamber of the Towers of Slumber. Remembering only a warning not to open doors, he rejects every Parent during the Tradition of Knocking, choosing Orphanhood over inherited power. The Cosmos is already destroyed, its souls sealed within the Obelisk, where Children ascend through deadly Sequences between Asylums. Forced into the 100th Sequence — the Ceremony of Patrimony — Blodeuwedd triggers an anomaly that destroys the trial itself. Barely surviving, he accepts help from a being called Chances, resets the ceremony, and emerges as its sole victor. In the Obelisk, where the Towers of Slumber exist to hone Children as Singularities, where several Paths are walked to harness power through heritages, traits, functions and eminences, Blodeuwedd must adapt and ascend toward the Highest Sequence while he must descend toward the Lowest Asylum. The die is being rolled, its value at the zeroth, the seventh possibility has appeared as a non-existent absolute on what is supposed to be a six-sided box of probability. The zeroth tells his fate, and from Orphanhood, the Messiah Paradox is calling to occupy the seat of the Paradox. 「You have acquired your [Trait].」 「You have acquired a [Trait] [Messiah Paradox].」

When archivist Elena Vance returns to her secluded hometown of Blackwater Falls to settle the estate of her estranged younger sister Maya—whose death was ruled a suicide—she expects grief, quiet, and paperwork. Instead, she finds a house steeped in dread, a town paralyzed by fear, and a single, ominous artifact hidden in the attic: a 19th-century wax phonograph cylinder labeled "DO NOT PLAY." Against her better judgment, Elena plays the recording. What pours out isn’t music or speech—but a distorted, layered scream that ends with Maya’s voice, begging for help. From that moment, reality begins to unravel. Whispers seep from walls. Radios hiss with voices of the dead. Neighbors vanish, only to reappear as hollow-eyed drones repeating fragments of their own last words. Elena soon learns that Maya had uncovered the truth about The Whisperer—an ancient entity that feeds on human voices, preserving them in a grotesque symphony of stolen sound. It doesn’t kill its victims… it erases them by imitation, wearing their voices like skins until nothing of the original remains. With the help of a skeptical local sheriff and a reclusive historian guarding dark family secrets, Elena races to reconstruct a forgotten Resonance Cage—a device designed in 1893 to trap the entity. But time is running out. The Whisperer is growing stronger, spreading through phone lines and emergency broadcasts, and it has set its sights on Elena’s voice—the last, perfect instrument it needs to break free from Blackwater Falls and echo across the world. As her own speech begins to glitch and strangers start speaking with her voice, Elena must confront a terrifying truth: to silence the echo, she may have to silence herself forever. Blending psychological dread with supernatural horror, The Hollow Echo is a chilling exploration of grief, identity, and the terror of being unheard—until all that’s left of you is a whisper in the static.

A modern US soldier and his batallion die immediately when flying to a rapid mobilization order in Iraq. The Goddess Triamal saves the batallion and offers them a tantalizing offer: Live a second time with a chance for redemption, or die and return to Earth. Most take the offer, going to war against a world. The age old question: "can a modern army unit win against an entire world" is on display here. *Disclaimers* There is no harem in here. There is a single FMC, and that will never change. Yes, there will be romance, and no the MC is not a spineless wimp who doesn't know how to treat women. This is not a "guy gains a system, and speed blitzes everything" story, there are stakes, there will be death, and the pacing may slow at times. I may get a few things wrong from time to time about how a battalion moves. Feel free to tell me when/if that happens. This is not a story about "conquering another world because a portal showed up." No, this is "we are fighting an entire world for our second chance at life"

Hacking was already a bad idea. Stealing the source code of a multibillion-dollar game and hacking it was even worse. Helant just chose to be optimistic. Worst case, he goes to jail. Best case, he gets isekai’d. Turns out, it was the best case. When YGGDRASIL shuts down, Helant doesn’t log out. He crosses into the New World together with Momonga, Nazarick, and every NPC… carrying a fully hacked character build. Maxed races. Broken classes. Faith power that turns belief into raw strength. Let's see how it goes... for others.

He didn't go missing. He stepped away. When Rohan disappears from an elite boarding school in the hills, the institution closes ranks. No questions. No blame. No story. But Siya can't accept the silence-especially when fragments of Rohan's thoughts begin surfacing in the wrong places. As pressure tightens and memories blur into longing, Siya is forced to confront a terrifying truth: some disappearances are deliberate-and loving someone doesn't mean being protected from their choices. The Quiet Vanishing is a slow-burn literary mystery about power, absence, and a love that leaves questions instead of answers.

Have you ever loved someone enough to let them ruin you? Hatred turns intimate. Violence turns protective. Control turns possessive. Lines blur until neither knows where revenge ends and devotion begins. This is not a love story. It’s a descent. A dark romance of power, cruelty, obsession, and the kind of attachment that doesn’t ask to be healthy—only eternal.

When a forbidden pact is broken, the spirits awaken and they demand a price. But what begins as a test of loyalty spirals into a dark game of power, pleasure, and sacrifice.

Knowledge is currency. Alchemy is knowledge. Most of the world doesn’t know alchemy exists. Those who do call it heresy. Those who practice it call it ascension. A man wakes in the lightless depths of Tauran City Prison with no records, no history—only a modern vocabulary that doesn’t belong to him. In a facility built to process human bodies, ignorance is a death sentence. To survive the lower floors, he bonds with a parasitic alchemical metal—an artifact that grows stronger through blood, memory, and use. It is a weapon, a tool, and a cost he does not yet understand. Guided by a man who knows too many and a girl who should not have lived this long, he descends through a system where alchemy is graded, identities fracture, and power is never free. You are not a prisoner. You are a specimen. And ascension has already begun.

Only the Chosen Ones are able to sense the threat, which is invisible to the average person. Izochi Horitoshi, a sixteen-year-old boy whose world starts and ends with a single, desperate promise—to protect his younger siblings--stands in the centre of this building storm. However, fate is a harsh master. And he has to Change it.

Some sins are born in darkness. Others bloom. Darkly romantic, emotionally charged, and steeped in intrigue, Roses & Sins is a tale of love that cuts deep, beauty that deceives, and the fragile line between salvation and ruin. Because even the most beautiful roses grow among thorns. Amaiyla’s life was simple, sun-drenched, and predictable on her small island—until her family’s sudden move to England thrust them into wealth, high society, and a world she barely recognizes. The girl who once ran barefoot on sandy beaches now walks among power, secrets, and expectations that feel like chains. Her father’s latest decree shakes her to the core: she is to marry Xander Reyes, the infuriating heir of a ruthless business empire. There’s just one problem—Amaiyla already loves someone else. In a world where appearances hide ambition, loyalty is a weapon, and every alliance comes at a price, Amaiyla must fight to protect her heart, her independence, and her life. But as she navigates lies, family intrigue, and a man who challenges her at every turn, she begins to wonder—can she trust anyone at all?

At the age of 40, I saw the sky turn red, not because of the sunset, but because of the fire that covered the sun. In front of me stood a man. He called himself God, laughing over a pile of corpses of the strongest people who had ever protected the earth while shouting Eldora's name. And me? I was just trash that had survived too long only to witness the end of everything. “If only I had the strength... if only they hadn't believed this bastard...” As the scorching heat burned my lungs, only one thing crossed my mind: If you choose to worship a false God, then I will come as the Devil to destroy the God you worship." Then, darkness. And what is this smell... it's the smell of my home twenty years ago!!!

With the help of her grandparents and the new friends she makes there, Sarah decides to seek revenge on those who destroyed her family.

I’d been reading a Webnovel called The Dance of Power. It wasn’t a blockbuster hit, but it had a devoted fanbase — and the worldbuilding was interesting enough to keep me hooked. Flawed, sure, but filled with potential. Its biggest draw was its gimmick: An interactive system that lets readers submit their own character sheets to be added to the story. Naturally, I made one. Naturally… it got rejected. “Not unique enough.” “Doesn’t fit the plot.” “Try again next event.” I shrugged it off. It was just a character, after all. At least, until I opened my eyes — and found myself inside the world of The Dance of Power, inhabiting the very same character the author had turned down. A character who wasn’t meant to exist. A character with no place in the story. A flaw in the narrative. And in a universe built on power, politics, and brutal hierarchy… Being a mistake is the most dangerous thing you can be.
