Gilded Ashes: When Shadows Reign

In a world haunted by darkness, a single spark can rewrite fate itself. When shadows devour everything he ever knew, Raizen is left with nothing but grief - and a vow to hunt down and kill every Nyx. He shouldn't have been alive. But darkness made a mistake. Now, he'll burn the world to hunt it down. At his side stands Hikari, a mysterious girl with a blurry past and a dark fate she cannot escape - one that even she fears.

He must grow stronger - or die quietly. A story with battles of unimaginable scale. A world that still echoes from disaster. Awakened powers that break every limit. Some call it Eon - a power beyond fate, a force that can bend reality itself. But something far darker is waking inside of Raizen. Something not meant to protect life... But to end it.

Silent Crown: The Masked Prince's Bride

"She was supposed to be silent. She chose chaos instead." Lorraine was the abused daughter of the Grand Duke of Vaeloria—mute, deaf, and dismissed. Overshadowed by her perfect half-sister, Elyse, even the hostage prince she once saved mistook Elyse for his savior… and fell in love with the wrong girl. But fate bound Lorraine to that same prince. Married young to Leroy Regis, the war-born Crown Prince of Kaltharion, Lorraine was nothing more than a pawn in a peace treaty. He never touched her. Never spoke to her. Never knew she could hear every word and speak, just not aloud. For ten years, she waited for the husband who called her “useless” and “a mistake”. In secret, Lorraine became his silent guardian: protecting his life, building his power, shielding his name. She gave everything. And when he returned from war after five years, she waited on the balcony, hoping he’d finally see her. But he broke her heart. He came home with another woman by his side. His mistress, bold and beautiful, was a mirror of Elyse. And he rode right past his wife… without looking back. As if she meant nothing. Now, the Silent Crown stays silent, but she would not be still. She's not powerless anymore. She's gained power on her own, walking in the shadows. If love couldn’t move him, perhaps she shouldn't remain. If her devotion meant nothing, then it’s time he learns what his “mistake” is truly capable of. She will break his heart… She will leave… But not before setting the palace ablaze, and letting the ashes speak for her.

SIGHTSEER: A Post-apocalyptic World

Approximately 3,141 years ago, according to the oldest historical book, it records a world that is vibrant and full of life, and a world where people can roam and travel without fear, to experience the beauty, to see, and to feel the abundance it gives. However it was also recorded that it's the year the first gods suddenly appeared, and began ravaging the world tearing down great civilization and even the ones that tried to thrive. The gods didn't bring salvation when they arrived before humanity, instead it ruled over the skies, the land, and the ocean killing whoever stepped foot into their domains. And just like that on the same year the world was never the same. The land shifted colliding with one another forming mountains and creating different terrains, the sea rise burying cities destroying lives, and the sky no longer followed the natural order where one city will experience endless storms that ravage it but the one besides it experience magnified heat burning trees and melting steel. Until the 'genesis' arrived when the first god was killed and brought a spark of hope to humanity. The story began on the year 1,853 of the current era ATG (After The Genesis), the protagonist woke up in the middle of a gloomy dessert with only a holographic companion named SAI (Systematic Artificial Intelligence) and world different form what he knew, a knowledge even he himself don't know how he got. In that knowledge he dreamt of a vibrant world full of life, people everywhere, buildings that are intricately designed, and a place where no creatures named gods hunting and destroying homes. Now after waking up he only has a few thing in mind, to see the world and hoped to know who or what he is. Passion project of mine, so the the update can really fluctuate.

Poker Cheat L.A.’s Underground

Marcus, a young immigrant, had just arrived in Los Angeles when he became a target of campus extortion due to his Asian identity. His uncle Raymond rescued him with extraordinary poker skills, only to uncover a shocking secret: a $50,000 gang debt. To save his mother’s restaurant, Marcus, who had no poker experience at all, was forced to break into an underground casino in Chinatown. There, he unexpectedly allied with Claire, the daughter of a missing FBI agent—she needed to find her father, and he needed to repay the debt, thus beginning a life-or-death partnership. Guided by Raymond’s cheating techniques and equipped with Claire’s agent notes, Marcus transformed from a math prodigy into a poker ace. Leveraging combinatorial probability analysis and fancy card-switching tricks, he navigated between casinos and campus, taking on powerful foes like Wolf (the loan-sharking gang leader), Chen (a key member of a transnational criminal group), and Viktor (a Russian mafia member). They teamed up to raid money laundering warehouses, unravel the conspiracy of drugs hidden in poker chips, and outwit double agents. Amidst gunfights and high-stakes poker games, they exposed an underground criminal network spanning Los Angeles and New York. From Los Angeles’ Chinatown to Las Vegas casinos and New York’s underground tournaments, Marcus and his friends clung to justice amid deception and betrayal, protecting their families on the edge of life and death. When the shadow of the mastermind “The Phantom” loomed and warnings arrived via anonymous emails, this survival game—spanning two seasons—evolved from repaying a debt to an ultimate showdown against a transnational syndicate. The teenager’s growth, the bond between friends, and the battle between good and evil reach a fever pitch in every poker game, leaving a suspenseful cliffhanger for what’s to come.

Abyssal chains

In the holy empire of Elyndor, touching the Abyss is the greatest sin. Those who survive its kiss gain power that rivals the gods—while a creeping curse devours their humanity. Shade Voss was born a noble, trained as an assassin, and condemned as a traitor. On the day his executioner raises the axe, a Rift tears open above the plaza and floods him with pure Abyssal power. Shadows rise at his command, ravenous and alive. In a single heartbeat he slaughters hundreds and awakens as the first of a new breed: a Devourer. Fleeing the capital,shade accidentally unleashes two legendary monsters the Church kept chained for centuries: Veyra Thornblade — the Crimson Berserker, a walking catastrophe wrapped in living thorns and unbreakable chains, addicted to battle and bloodshed. Seraphine Nocturne — the Calamity Witch, an ethereal sorceress who can erase existence with a whisper, burdened with memories older than the empire and a seal that—if broken—will end the world. Branded the “Three Harbingers” of an ancient prophecy, the trio becomes the most wanted beings in Elyndor. Inquisitors, nobles, and fellow Abyss-touched all hunt them—some for justice, others for the power inside their veins. To survive, shade and his cursed companions must feed the Hunger growing within—devouring Rifts, monsters, and, if they lose control, each other. But the Abyss is no gift. It is a predator. And it has chosen these three broken souls as its perfect vessels. Seal the Abyss and lose everything. Devour it—and become the new gods of a dying world. In a land where power corrupts and trust is suicide, three monsters will carve a path of blood toward salvation… or utter damnation. Abyssal Chains: Devourers of the Void Power has a price. Hunger always collects.
