--- Author's Note ---

Due to a writing competition with another novel, I'll be putting this novel in a hiatus. Though I'll be writing it in the background, and make a major overhaul for it when the competition is over.

Warning: This story is a dark and frustrating read. The main protagonist will suffer, despite his best effort. The plot is very expansive so you'll have to read for a fair bit until everything becomes clear. <<less

Welcome to the Skazka my dear lady and gentlemen!... more>>

I bring to your attention a collection of stories relating to another world. These are small stories about the fate of people connected by one very important and global event that will happen to them very soon. It so happened that these stories are very similar to the fate of the characters of Russian folk tales. But too many words kill the secret.

Shhh my little guests, close your eyes because you soon will transfer into another world of the Skazka. <<less

Fed up with a world where science has made every fantasy a reality and people just don’t care about stories anymore, a young video game developer named Kai uses ancient black magic to transport himself into one of his games, titled: Choices.... more>>

Disturbed by his powerlessness on Earth, Kai makes sure to give himself the ability to change this new world as he sees fit, literally.

If you were ridiculously powerful, would you throw away all your morals and do whatever you wanted? Would you find happiness? Would you find love?
Or would you end up realizing that…

Absolute power is pretty depressing.

Note: The format for chapter titles is: “Overall_number POV_number: Title." Look at the POV chapter number to see who is narrating.

“I was born with an extremely prestigious but combat-weak logistics class. As the son of the clan head and the next heir, that just wasn’t enough of an excuse to spare me from my father’s grueling training.

For in his creed the only strength that mattered was that grasped in one’s own two hands.

In my journey through the lands with my harem, I was grateful for his training as it saved my life multiple times when my girls weren’t there to engage in combat.

This is my story.”

“Have you ever felt completely bored out of your life?”... more>>

“Have you ever doubted the reason for your existence? Your purpose?”

“Is there a tiny spark of curiosity inside that boredom? Wanting to explore? Wanting to know more?”

“That’s me? Just a fun loving guy bored to death in the most literal manner. I lived an uneventful life as an orphan. Studied hard, got a job but never married. I guess sudden heart attack leaves you no chance to think about the future. One of the things you should know about me though, I am a very humble person.”

“If you compare me to the regular tramsmigrators of the legends then you might be mistaken. After all, what abilities does a salesman could offer in a world filled with magic, right?”

“You have been warned. If you still want to read, follow my adventure where I embrace the romantic adventures of every fantasising males and females. The adventure of a Hunter.”

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit even early on.

There's a hierarchy, places among all lives in the universe.... more>>

Primitive animals, intelligent mortals, their kings, and then their gods. Then there are their gods' gods, being so powerful that even they can’t touch.

However, to all of these being, there’s one thing they know, but don’t remember. One thing they all fear and respect, but will inevitably forget.

The white shadow in the corner of their eyes, the whispers behind their ears, the tiny voices inside their head, guiding them, manipulating them, leading the course of the history of the universe to its desired destination.

The All-Knowing One who always watches over the whole of existence.

Ever since the beginning of time, a grand library has a record of every action, every thought, every emotion, every intent and every word ever spoken by anything. Every feat ever accomplished, every failure, every concept that has ever been conceived and every second of every life is in there.

The archive of books that has reality recorded onto its page.

And the recorder, its elusive master, the watcher of fates and the writer of destiny who has been observing all life from the very beginning—is a human.

Welcome—to the Conceptors Grand Archive.
Everything you know and more is in there.

(A certain [Self-Aware Fictional Character] recruits the help of an 'ordinary' failed author from Earth in the 21st century to help him create a new version of the universe. But as the Protagonist and the Antagonist continue to argue about how the story should end, the grip of [False Entropy] grows ever stronger.)
(Slow start, very non-standard plot.)

Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called back into service after a gifted scientist loses everything.... more>>

Is she serving her country? Or is she just a pawn in a great game?

Orivar is a web novel series set in the distant future. Humanity has all but mastered the exotic material known as omnium, the most common of which is called orivar: the original variety. That clear crystal is a transmuter of mass and energy, and the very existence of contemporary Civilized Space depends on it.

Deep Black, the first book in the series, begins a classic story of light versus darkness. A novel variety of omnium–one with the potential of sending Civilized Space crashing down–is stolen from a research station just beyond the Federation border. Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called to command the fastest starship ever made to chase the thieves and retrieve the stolen sample. Meanwhile, enemies both near and far vie for the omnium sample and the advanced technology powering her ship. Can Atara remain loyal in the face of seeming betrayal?

Natalin thought that being a champion of the gods was supposed to make things easier.... more>>

It turns out, life isn’t that simple.

For centuries, the four gods that rule the land have each chosen a hero, a mage-warrior to act as eyes and hands in the world. Gifted with their Divine’s blessing, these Ascended and their successors have worked through the ages to ensure the land stays at peace.

As the new Tideborn, the disciple of the sea god Efren, Natalin is expected to follow in their footsteps.

Her counterpart Takio finds himself in the same boat, tasked with keeping his volcano goddess patron in check. The demands placed on them are immense, but together with their nations, they’ve managed to keep the peace.

Until the crops and grasslands begin failing, sending Takio’s mountainous nomads careening towards war. Natalin’s shores fall under siege, destroying the seabound trade routes that keep their nations flourishing.

When the very safety of the four champions is threatened by the growing chaos, Natalin and Takio realize the truth - their Divine favor won’t protect them.

And there’s more at play in their ‘peaceful’ world than they’d thought. <<less

In this life, the moment An Bai found his heart, he remembered. Remembered everything, vowing to not involve himself with that best friend nor the cultivation world ever again.
But why? Why was his best friend suddenly in front of him again? Why did he refuse to let go of his hand? And why the ever loving ****…why was he ****-ing kissing him?!?!?!

If Uno were an anime...
The people at the Uno card game company had an idea to increase sales: What if we hosted a tournament for schools? We can get kids to buy the game and sell advertisement fees for broadcasting the tournament!
It didn’t seem like the best idea, but they went for it and people just loved the idea.... more>>

Adam, Sofia, and Lidia are childhood friends attending Zamenhof High School. Lidia’s father was sick with a rare disease that costed a lot to cure. All three of them were rather poor, but they all didn’t want Lidia’s father to waste away in the hospital, so they desperately tried to find a way to make money. They decided to start an Uno club at their school, so they can enter the tournament and hopefully win the ten million-dollar first prize. They thought it would be something low-effort, either they didn’t win or they did, and they could also have fun along the way. Uno is a simple card game that even has an elementary-school division. Surely, there isn’t too much strategy involved. Little did they know that there was a lot more to Uno and the competition than it seemed…

This is a story about Uno, where underneath the kid-friendly surface lies a game full of strategy and a game full of cheating, threats, and backdoor deals.
This is also a story of three friends, who have to balance friendship with desire and guilt with greed, as they begin to question what they truly want in life. <<less

Palantine and Co. is an unusual company that does its work in an unusual field. But it's attractive enough to out of work Gary Bellamy, and offers decent pay and a good benefits package. But there are a few things a little strange about the local office. The CEO is perpetually out of town, apparently in search of ‘Enlightenment’. His co-workers are involved in research and investigations involve the likes of Bigfoot, ghosts, walk-ins and other supernatural phenomena, for who its not quite clear. It all seems a bit dodgy to Gary but again, good benefits package.... more>>

Ephram Palantine is having problems of his own. His search for Enlightenment hasn’t been going all that well, has lead down some rather bizarre rabbit holes. It's about to get a lot worse.

The employees of Palantine and Co. are themselves hoping their new hire is exactly what they need. Otherworldly phenomena is on the rise. A seven year old girl has gone missing in northern Michigan, and they are sure it involves something that happened to Gary when he was a boy, thirty years ago, not to mention that there have been sightings of same identical dead man on a Lake Erie beach now for several decades. Some might call what Gary and his co-workers are about to get involved in to protect humanity from a world whose borders with other realities are fraying at the edges, incredible and perhaps even insane. Some might call it a mission. <<less
