Transmigrated to Nemeteia

"You are holding the best hunter in our village," they said. Lyor looked at the brown cat he had held so protectively in his hands. He needed to get him treated. "Huh?" The last thing Lyor remembered before waking up in this strange forest is the suffocating pain in his chest. Now people he found are saying that he is holding a hunter and not a cat. "What on earth is going on?" He mumbled as his vision grew dark. "What's earth?" He heard them ask before everything went black. In Nemeteia, a vast ancient tree stands at the center of a peaceful village, sustaining a barrier that protects its people from the dangerous creatures beyond. Most arrive with no memories of their previous lives. Lyor is the exception. After a life on Earth defined by hardship, pressure, and pain, he awakens beneath the great tree with memories he was never meant to keep. In a world where people speak gently, offer help without expectation, and rest without fear, he does not know how to exist without constant anxiety. Survival is no longer a fight, yet his body and mind have not learned that safety is real. On the day he arrives, he encounters Sol, the village’s most skilled hunter, who accidentally transforms into a cat mid-mission due to a lingering prank curse. Mistaking him for an injured animal, Lyor carries him back to the village with desperate concern, unaware he is protecting a human. That moment of instinctive kindness sparks an unexpected bond between them. Nemeteia is not without danger. Beyond the barrier live monsters, some truly hostile, others simply misunderstood. When Lyor’s rare ability begins to manifest, he may hold the key to strengthening the boundary between worlds.

The Heart of Sorrows Book 1: The Labyrinth of Endless Grief

He sacrificed everything and everyone to save her. Now she’s the monster he must kill. Zeek is a man running out of reasons to keep going. A wandering rogue turned pariah, he has spent years feeding the Heart of Sorrows—a living labyrinth built on ancient genocide, whose walls shift, whose dead rise, and whose hunger never ceases. He keeps returning for one reason: Lilliana. His wife. A woman of near-angelic descent who sacrificed herself for his survival and became the labyrinth’s unwilling queen in the process. Every expedition ends in failure. The blood of companions, hired blades, and friends alike stains his hands. Desperate and running out of time, Zeek assembles one final company: Verris, a brutal mercenary duty-bound to the men he lost inside those same walls; Kerris, a scarred archer who survived the labyrinth once and carries the grief of those who didn’t; Amon, a fire mage from Kemet who carries a reincarnated soul older than the corruption itself; and Heka, a Shu-Ra queen—a being the gods tried to erase from existence—who drifts in smoke beside the man she loves across lifetimes. Together, they descend into a nightmare that remembers them, adapts to them, and weaponizes everything they’ve ever lost. At its heart, The Labyrinth of Endless Grief is a story about love as an act of destruction. It encompasses the specific grief of watching someone you love become unrecognizable—not dead, but gone—and the terrible choices made in the space between who they were and what they’ve become. Zeek doesn’t just fight monsters. He fights his own hubris, his guilt, and the dawning realization that saving Lilliana may require destroying the last version of her that remains. The labyrinth doesn’t invent horrors. It finds the ones we never imagined carrying and leaves them with us.. This is a grimdark tragic romance inspired by Dragon Age: The Calling, the atmosphere of FromSoftware’s Souls series. Book One of the Heart of Sorrows trilogy.

ANCESTRAL DESCENDANT

In a world where gods once waged war across the constellations, the balance of life hangs by a thread. Humanity lives in the shadow of forgotten powers, and monsters born of corruption prey upon the weak. Aaron Yaghan, once an ordinary F-rank—until the day he inherited the essence of a fallen hero, the first man Adaman. With this gift came a terrible burden: the power to grow beyond limits, to absorb strength, and to wield abilities no mortal should command. But power alone cannot protect the heart. Pulled into mysterious rifts, hunted by unseen enemies, and bound to a world of gods, Aaron must navigate a treacherous path where every choice carries weight. Each battle brings him closer to mastery, yet every victory exacts a cost, testing his morality, his sanity, and the very meaning of humanity. Amid the chaos, there are fleeting moments of light—friendship, trust, and the fragile warmth of love. But even those are threatened by forces that would see the world consumed: Hagon, the Primordial God of Corruption, whose reach defies death, time, and reason. Aaron’s journey is one of blood, tears, and endless struggle—a fight not only for survival but for the legacy of those who came before him. Will he rise as the savior of mankind, or will the shadows of the past claim him as their heir? In a world where the gods have left their mark, the descendant of the first man carries the weight of destiny… and the heartbreak of a world that may never be free.
