I died once reaching for a woman whose face I can no longer remember. "What can love do to a person? It can bring down the mightiest man. But what can hate do? It can forge a sovereign." Kael Cassian Vorn was born into a family of monsters. The sixth son of a ruthless dynasty, he was meant to be a footnote in the bloody history of the Vorn clan. But Kael is not just a discarded prince. He is the reincarnation of a shattered legacy, the heir to a primordial bloodline, and the unwilling host to the Darkness System. Bound to a soul-shattering system and in a ruthless world, Kael must navigate a world of cultivation where mana, body, and soul are the ultimate truths. To survive, he must become worse than the monsters hunting him. He will devour the powers of his enemies. He will forge unbreakable soul contracts. And he will conquer the hearts of the dangerous women who stand by his side, from gentle milfs to deadly fox-kin royals and shadow assassins. With the blood of an ancient demon awakening in his veins and the dark system guiding his path, Kael is ready to collect his debts. He is coming for his father's throne, and he will paint the stars red to claim it. This novel contains explicit sexual content, a demanding harem, dark themes, and a cunning protagonist who plays the villain as easily as he plays the lover. You have been warned.

“I swear it! I swear on the name of the Allfather, I will murder all of you! Rip you to shreds and feast on your insides. Can you hear me!? And his ravens will witness me conquer the North while you roll in your graves. Your stay in the underworld will not be a joyous one.” Ragnar’s nails sank deep into his skin, causing a wound that blended perfectly with the hole of the ripped-out eye. ᛖᚡᛖᚱᛚᚨᛋᛏᛁᚾᚷ ᚹᚨᚱ× ᚨ ᛋᚨᚷᚨ ᚠᚱᛟᛗ ᛏᚺᛖ ᚾᛟᚱᛏᚺ Ragnar was born with a rare mutation that gave him two magic types instead of one. Unfortunately, his mana pool was laughably small. He couldn't even tell when he was using magic; it would activate on its own without any visible changes besides leaving him incredibly tired a few seconds after his mana pool was completely depleted. Just as he was close to becoming an adult and his twelfth winter started, his village was attacked, his best friend betrayed him, and his father died. After his father's death and his best friend's betrayal, Ragnar swore he would murder everyone involved in the plot that took everything from him and then force them to watch from the afterlife as he achieved their dream of taking over the North.

Sean expected an island trip to be a chance to bond, make memories - an ordinary orientation retreat. Instead, he and his peers find a dead body. As they struggle to uncover the killer, Sean realizes the murder is only the surface of something deeper: a hidden world of extremist ideology, buried conspiracies, and truths that may destroy them before they escape.

She was never chosen to save the world — she was forged to survive it. Etani is a half-fae assassin who understands the rules of survival: power is taken, mercy is punished, and every victory has a cost. She was never meant to be a heroine — only a weapon. When fate drags her from the shadows into the heart of political and divine conflict, Etani is stripped of her power, betrayed by courts and gods alike, and forced into leadership she never wanted. Each battle reshapes her. Each choice costs her something she cannot replace. As assassinations give way to crowns, and kingdoms become bargaining chips for gods, Etani must navigate brutal power struggles, shifting alliances, and enemies who would rather break her than kill her. Survival demands sacrifice. Power demands blood. And destiny does not care who it destroys along the way. This is a dark epic fantasy of ruthless survival, morally complex choices, and a female lead who does not seek redemption — only control over the chaos determined to consume her. For readers who enjoy dark fantasy, morally grey protagonists, and stories where power is both weapon and curse, Etani is a completed 12-book saga of transformation, vengeance, and the thin line between predator and prey. Content Warning: This series contains graphic violence, sexual content, torture, murder, cannibalism, domestic and sexual abuse, mental illness (including depression and suicidality), abortion, and miscarriage.

This world of Chakra is harsh, but rewarding. Kotetsu Hoku is a shinobi just trying to protect the people he cares about. In order to do that, he will have to face against suspicious clans, ambitious murderers, beasts of mass destruction, power hungry nations, immortal beings, and individuals who might as well be gods. And before he's finished, the baton will need to be passed on. Because the fighting never stops for the first Hokage. This is a progression fantasy story. Very loose fan fiction based on Naruto. Entirely original characters, original plot, and heavily rewritten world. Sometimes, the only similarity between canon and this will be in name. This story is Noob friendly! If you didn't bother reading or watching Naruto (or any subsequent series), don't worry as this story will explain abilities and powers as they are brought into focus. For those that did view the original story, I hope you enjoy this one. It had a lot of thought and effort put into it. Even though this story is effectively a rewrite of the lore, please know that A LOT of the previously mentioned effort was put into ensuring the power system feels like a natural evolution of Naruto's power system. Basically, it's the only thing really connecting this story as a fanfic to Naruto at all. The sheer number of hours I have personally spent (wasted) trying to rationalise things from the original story are mind boggling, all for the reason of expanding on them for use in this story. I used to have a synopsis here, but I've realised that it did not paint an accurate enough picture for the story. So, if I had to describe the next 1m+ yet-to-be-written words to you in a succinct and timely manner without many spoilers, let me leave it at: This world is familiar, yet different. There are myriad histories to uncover, in-depth characters to explore, timelines to arrange, fallen kingdoms to unearth, ancient powers to exploit, and pervasive evils to neuter. Even if you don't read it today, I don't plan on stopping any time soon. Here's to hoping I can write more than 200k words per year! Warning: Long term story. No reincarnation, no isekai, no inserts. Multiple character perspectives. If you're wondering 'why bother writing all of this', stick around and find out. Please..! (Also posted on: Royalroad, Spacebattles, and AO3!)

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.
