This novel is over a year old, I still have a lot to write. But I've been informed by my readers that I should update the synopsis. This is a FIRST draft, it is RAW, and it is UNEDITED. For the first 50 or so chapters, I as the Author wasn't entirely sure what direction I wanted to take the novel. So it is really convoluted at the start. Why haven't I changed it? FIRST draft.

Polyamory: the practice of engaging in multiple romantic (and typically sexual) relationships, with the consent of all the people involved.

You will see a lot of this in this novel. The MC and a majority of their lovers are not human. They do not have the same taboos and hang-ups.

This is my FIRST attempt at a story. There will be mistakes. The first 50 or so chapters are very messed up. Just work your way through them, it gets better. <<less

Now she is faced with the frightening possibility that she had been here before and started a war that nearly destroyed the world.

Avan, a 25-year-old young man, is torn from his rather boring life. He awakens in Aorus, a world full of magic, monsters and dungeons.... more>>

By a stroke of luck and an ominous skill called "Potential", he awakens a new class never seen before called Dungeonheart (Human). Dungeons, although sentient, are never sapient nor mobile.

Join Avan as he pursues his passion for healing and martial arts, and building his very own dungeon at the same time. He’s the hybrid of a moving dungeon and a healer.

"Healing Dungeon" will include City building, strategy, very little romance, exploration of the world of Aorus, and a touch of power levelling. (There are elements from other fantasy novels, as well as anime, games, and more).
What will all be possible with a dungeon that can move, but still brings some of the familiar dungeon mechanics along for its journey?

-- Please note that the beginning and thus the first chapters were really my first writing works in english, and can only be rewritten at a later time (lack of time in favor for new chapters) --
(The writing style and also the story improves VERY much from the 12th chapter at the latest! Proofreading is available, but I depend on any well-intentioned advice from you guys).

If you have any questions, suggestions, constructive criticism, or just because you feel like it, feel free to leave me a comment below the respective chapters!
For every positive and serious review or rating, I am infinitely grateful! ;)

I am a creature of few words and the beginning is therefore a little faster than I would have liked it now in retrospect. Please do not expect huge paraphrases and descriptions of the environments, but only what is really necessary to get into the scene.

Cheers and hopefully see you in the comment section.

The Otaku Zhen Shi died and reincarnated in another world. Cliche much? Yup!
Then he got a system! Cliche again? Yup!
But, this system steals stuff from Gods and kindly gifts them to the less fortunate... namely to himself! Huh... That's sort of new...
He also has a magical library in his mind! Wait... isn't that strangely familiar? Flaws!
Also, his best bro is the Legendary Great Merlin with a plus one! Now is that cliche...?
________________________________________________________________________________________________... more>>

Zhen Shi was a nerd and an otaku that had traveled all over the world with his absent parents until... he was pushed off a cliff?

But fortunately, he reincarnated in another world with a system!

This new world seems to have unexplained connections to the Gods and Deities of almost every mythology back on Earth, and their influences are seen everywhere, from every kingdom to every clan...

Thankfully, Zhen Shi isn't an ordinary person. He is a bookworm easily entranced by the workings of the world and very familiar with world history and mythology. So he has an advantage over everyone with his knowledge!

Moving on, did I mention he's a shameless bastard at the forefront of ridiculous situations? With even more shameless Merlin and Co. to keep him company?

With his beloved but mischievous system *cough* scapegoat *cough*, Zhen Shi embarks on a journey facing happiness and sorrow alike as he attempts to reach the heavens!

Traditionnal disclaimers : I do not own Marvel and all other works of fiction I may use as references in the process of writing this story. I also do not own the miniature, whose original you can find at https://www.pinterest.fr/pin/472033604674669075/

I do own my original characters, though, be nice and don't steal them, or give me at least credits if you need to :)

Additional disclaimers (5th of May) : I would like to honor the two main sources of inspiration that made me write this story : the amazing 4th Book of the Power of Ten series written by RE Druin (ongoing, RR) which pushed me to create an original timeline, and the relationship between the entity known as Goldie and the main character of The Raptor of Life written by ioriangel (ongoing, SH).

You may have seen the tags already but bear in mind that the story is a fanfiction that will talk about gender identity, with a transgender main character and a girls love relationship. Harping about it in the comments will not be tolerated since you have been forwarned already.

Keep in mind that it is just a flight of fancy, that I'm in no way, shape or form a professional writer and that it will not be perfect. I will nonetheless strive to make it the most accurate and pertinent possible when it is due.

I am, also, not a native speaker. My english skillz are at roughly 90% self-taught. You are welcome to correct my poor mastery of your tongue in the commentary section if you do it nicely, I'll correct my, multiples, blunders.

I dedicate this idea and the story that follows to all the wonderful authors who write on SH and talks about those subjects because they are awesome folks.

With love, sh'. <<less

Series: Lost to a severe case of depression a young man ultimately decides to take his own life and end his suffering. Much to his surprise however, his existence doesn’t simply vanish and he wakes up as a sapient reality-bending crystal sphere. During that questionable change the man lost memory of his name and apparently also became a mother, giving birth to a magical entity.
Now with a new name, Argul Agren decides to embrace this second chance of life and begins a journey of magical discovery together with her daughter Alyra.... more>>

Volume 1 (ch. 1-31): Through a series of mundane and unnecessary large events, a young man finds himself reborn as a mana core , that is both male and female. His or her nature lead to the birth of her own daughter. Now, together with her daughter, she discovers the laws of a reality changed by a natural energy called mana, while also trying to fix the issues her existence lead to.

This is the first time that I write anything on the scale of a book/novel and I am not a native english speaker, so the tense might be a bit wobbly and some things might just sound really odd for you. I can take some critic on my writing though, as I am aware that I'm not that good at it. I know where I want to go with my story, but as I have no script I have a lot of freedom.

The rewrite is done let's throw a party! (Though without me, I'm shy)

Thanks for reading! <<less

Nyx - A demon, weak and small, too fleeting of a creature to survive the infernal wastes in which he was born - but after multiple brushes with death, the otherwise inconsequential demon experiences a destiny-changing encounter with an unknown and eccentric god, foreign to this world. Cast from the domains of old and conspiring gods to a land of which is sheltered from the divine, beyond the reach of whence they scheme, the impling who soon would come to be known far and wide as Nyx will find a new purpose.... more>>

Born of Pride, with the fires of ambition fanned and burning deep within, Nyx will grow, learn, and evolve. From a weak and pathetic impling - to that of a mighty archdemon of untold demonic power, nothing will stand in the way of his ascent.

Yet, the yearn of power might not be the only thing the power-manic demon will come to desire as he will encounter others who might just matter as much to him as the ecstasy of power does.

[Info]
This story features a wide breadth of characters with unconventional views, morals, and actions. There is no black and white - there is only grey. In a world where strength rules, notions of good and evil blur. The protagonist of this story is not a hero. He is not human. He is a megalomaniac demon trying to find his place in the world of which he has been discarded.

This novel is my first crack at making something serious, a piece of work I can be proud of. It is a part of a bigger universe that I am creating, The Aethos, and I fully intend for this story to be professionally edited, then self-published on Amazon. The novel will continue on for a long adventure, as each arc will be made into a proper book, but will always be available first here. Therefore I heavily encourage feedback and interaction. Anything to improve my story and my writing is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, and welcome to the Aethos.

What is fate?... more>>

Is it something that was destined to happen?

Can it be changed?

No. If it can be changed, it would't be known as fate, isn't it?

They say that fate can be control in our hands.

Then, is it possible to take everything in total control in my hands?, I wondered.

No, whatever the results is, I'm sure this was fated to happen under my control.

This world... will surely go along with my favor.

What would one do, when a star crashes into the Earth? Die, of course!

Except, in Joseph's case, it was all wrong. He met face-to-face with the Light, got the program forced into his brain, and woke up far, far away from his small insignificant hometown, in the ethereal endless void, full of stars and vigour, guns and loot, Daemons and Skills!

From there on out, he got volunteered into the crew of the Morning Star, the pirate ship he was unfortunate enough to stumble upon. With a tree for the Captain, a dragoncat for the Quartermaster, and a human, equal in height and width, as the Cook, he sets sail across the mysterious and hostile Threshold, filled with fierce abominations, rich Ghosts, and patriotic soldiers from the Glorious Metal Empire, all to figure out what the Light has brought upon his Earth that day, and to find his way back home.

Two young adults who were childhood friends are killed amidst a pandemic worse than our own. After many years apart, Rihelah was on her way to see Michael, hoping to rekindle their friendship on the day they would both lose their lives.... more>>

The pair are unwittingly selected to represent Earth in a test set forth by godlike beings who are intrigued that our world gave rise to complex life without having been intentionally seeded by their kind. Michael and Rihelah are reincarnated as predatory insects upon a distant planet called Edon. Elves, Dwarves, Dragons and their kin, Goblins, Ogres, Humans, Lizardfolk, Orcs, and sapient arthropods known as Enkelyn all inhabit this beautiful world touched by magic.

The tiny mantids must survive terrified and very much alone upon arrival, while neither is aware that the other has also been reincarnated upon the same island.

Naked in their new chitinous exoskeletons, they must brave the terrors of an alien world's food chain. Each will benefit from their years of experience on Earth, but they must somehow find a balance between old lives and new. Moderate mindsets and peaceful values from a mostly safe and privileged life on Earth must now contend and somehow coexist with the strange physiology of a new and unfamiliar body as well as the violent aggressiveness of a predator's mind.

To top things off, the pair are about to find themselves struggling with their inner turmoil while swept up by terrible conflicts they know nothing about.

Both endure the hardships of their new lives while attempting to understand and make proper use of a mysterious and terse video-game-like System that pops status notifications into their vision from time to time, but initially has no useful interface. Some of the options they are presented with sound enticing, but as with everything else in life, each choice has benefits and drawbacks... <<less

When powers began appearing across Brazil, many hoped to be among those who awaken new abilities. Joseph was one of those who never saw his dream come true. Even as Brazil fell under the rule of a new dictatorship, Joseph remained focused on his obsession. He joined the Sleepwalkers, a group dedicated to awakening powers at any cost, and has conducted dangerous experiments on himself for years; but he was still no closer to his goal than ever before. After earning multiple degrees in biology and Power Studies, Joseph's life consisted solely of teaching at a high school, coaching students who awaken, discussing powers with the Sleepwalkers, and the experiments he ran in his personal... more>> lab.

Then one of the other Sleepwalkers offered him his dream on a silver platter. There was no question about accepting it.

The only question was . . . what will Joseph do with his power?

None of that matters to Stone. He's a simple pebble, newly awakened and curious about the strange world he finds himself in. He doesn't know the first thing about the unending conflict that engulfs him or the grand machinations of fate that have left their imprint on his very soul.

Under the light of the three suns, the scorching sands of The Great Desert test any who are brave and or foolish enough to cross its vast and treacherous expanse.... more>>

With each passing year, it becomes more and more of a necessity as The Great Desert is ever expanding. Omid knew this as he signed onto a caravan crossing. He knew of the dangers and ancient magics that this unrelenting land holds. He knew of ancient kingdoms long lost, buried by the sands. He knew of the strange in-human inhabitants, the true masters of The Great Desert seeking to expand their dominion and drive humanity to the edges of the world.

When he is offered the chance to learn magic from a master, Omid agrees eagerly at the chance to discover such ancient arts, and to even dream of defending against a hostile world and all that would claim to rule it. But nothing in this formidable domain is ever easy, nor simple, nor as it seems.

Be vigilant, act with cunning, and always remember to choose your words wisely.
