AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Hi guys! This novel is just a pet project of mine, to exercise my imagination and vocabulary. The regularity of uploads will depend on how well this catches on (but nonetheless, expect at least 1-2 ch/wk).
I proofread my own work before uploading it, so there may be grammatical errors or misused vocabulary. Please let me know in the comments and I'll fix it.

I found inspiration for this novel from various sources (Cyberpunk 2077, The Mech Touch, etc.) so in some places you may find some similarities. Please note that it is just an inspiration and I'm not trying to blatantly copy those works.

While I do have a general plot line in mind, the various volumes (or arcs) will be quite fluid and susceptible to influence from reader suggestions. This is so that my creativity doesn't stagnate.

I hope you guys like my work. If not, please leave reviews! I appreciate any and all constructive criticism, and opportunities to improve myself.

All eighteen-year-old Nikessa's ever wanted was to be a chryshunter--one of those whose work it is to seek out and dig up the magical fossilized remains of ancient mirefallen beasts.

There she's to learn which seat of power will be hers--and to which five of the Mirelands' other heirs she'll be betrothed. But things at the capitol are not well, and some of those whom she once trusted prove traitorous. In the midst of a violent coup, Nik finds herself relying on powers she can barely fathom to fight an enemy she never imagined...all for a throne she doesn't even want.

Colors yield power. ... more>>

The blizzard rises day after day in the Frostbanks, forcing numbing snow and deadly winds onto the land and its people. In defiance to nature itself, the city of Oglios stands amidst the storm and even thrives thanks to the Suntower's protection, an artifact of old now relegated to simple fixture, its secrets fiercely guarded by the Scorched Circle, whose members regulate the flow of Returned, husks of the departed, in and out of the city.

Part of the larger nation of Gonphar, Oglios has obligations to respect if it wants to keep its relative independence, and the city's elite busies itself to fulfill their orders, supplying Gonphar as a whole with cheap labor in the ways of countless Returned. Meanwhile, the specter of war rears its dreadful head from across the mountains as border tensions with the Ehodan Kingdoms increase. Yet most ignore the threat, having more pressing concerns right within Oglios where warmth is limited, and free space is at a premium.

Three individuals converge during these trying times, lost in their personal struggles.

The Echo, an outsider in several degrees, returns to a family still mourning their mother's passing to uncover her wrongdoings. He would fulfill a promise, and perhaps find himself in the process, all the while having to conceal who and what he is.
The Dutiful reaches into criminal matters by authority of the Office of Inquiries. Held by guilt over her choices, she struggles to make it day-by-day, turning to Nostalgia for release. A thirst for vengeance fuels her will and keeps her going towards the ultimate goal.
The Collector, a mortician by trade, dwells in opposite circles. Pulled by decades old ties to the Circle, he stays loyal to the city in his own way by moving through the underworld in order to uproot corruption.

This is a work in progress, obviously. I want this to be a fully fleshed out novel eventually. It has a lot of moving pieces and things I'm still figuring out which is mostly still in my mind but I still wanted to put it out there, and hopefully get some feedback! Some chapters will very likely end up getting scrapped from the final product as I dig further into the story, and I will also go back and revisit older chapters to fix grammar, continuity errors, etc.

This is the story of her journey; of love and loss, friendship and isolation, fortune and tragedy. What can a girl do when she is faced with all the wonders and horrors that the world has to offer?

In the Kingdom of Særis, a group of renegade lords are seeking to enslave young adolescents to forge them into Ardents and Stoics. Those that fall will be used in a war against the Azure King. Will they break Rowan, or will they turn her into the very thing that will destroy them.

Ardent Tears focuses heavily on all kinds of relationships including: romantic, familial, platonic and sexual. The MC is a clear example of this, especially as she is poly. Because of this, I gave the story my own Poly Tag. This won't be anything like a Harem story and it is being written by someone who is polyamorous (me). There is also going to be several LGBT themes. <<less

[My Hero Academia OC fanfiction]... more>>

After finally achieving their dreams of opening their own Hero Office, the girls of Hope Agency want nothing more but to live simple lives as Pro Heroes.

Now they must take action, to not only settle old scores, but to ensure a horrific tragedy never takes place. All while questioning, what does it mean to be a Hero?

This is a story set a couple of years before the main series, My Hero Academia. Although the majority of the cast will be original characters, canon characters will make appearances. Also note, this is the first part of a series. Links and updates for the sequels will be uploaded later.

An erotic gothic fantasy of counterfactual modernity, set in Svet Dmitrin, a thinly-disguised anachronistic synthesis of soon-to-be-Soviet Odessa and Great War era Leningrad, during a protracted stalemate between the revolutionary Red Guard and the increasingly desperate tzarist White Guard. ... more>>

Our narrator is Lev/Lyubov Morgenshtern, a gay bigender ex-rabbi who’s just returned to the Talons Ghetto sovyet — an autonomous workers-and-peasants commune of the kind that directly preceded the Soviet Union (and indeed the thing that the USSR named itself after) — after a stint on a psych ward … which followed a far longer stint living in the tzarist-held half of Svet Dmitrin with a bougie respectability-obsessed ex-boyfriend. He’s got nowhere to sleep, no assurance his old friends want to see him and the only workable plan he’s got is to find someone hot and soft-hearted to take him home for the night …

R18 for graphic gay sex; the story makes frequent use of reclaimed homophobic slurs and, well, it’s a story about gay soon-to-be-Soviet Jews — transmisogyny and transphobia, homophobia, and antisemitism are quotidian environmental hazards.

He was fine with his life.
Maybe dream big, want to be an astronaut or anything prestigious, but any natural dreamer stays a dreamer who put low to no effort into it — so he doesn't bother. He views himself as expense or garbage to society, but being an ant to all of mankind makes it both unnecessary and wasteful to exclude him, right? So better enjoy his time while it lasts.... more>>

That's the point, it didn't last.

"The world is at dismay, but why should you care about that more than yourself?"

Society he deemed himself to be irrelevant in, has opposed everyone outright regardless upstanding or low in standings; humans have been growing exponentially, tripled the amount back in the 19s — meaning, the more consumers, the higher the demands. The government, led by deceitful eyes, has been struck by numerous terrorist attacks where their gaze does not fall. This has occured many economical downfalls, deprivation of supplies and food, and so on.

Earth was no longer it used to be, and soon, all trace of intelligent life — if can truly exist at all in such an apocalypse, vanishes.

Tells the tale of a boy, transpired thus by impulsive thoughts he dwelled on that day — a selfish wish, a selfish gain, and a selfless lie. It wasn't long, but it meant almost the world to him moments before demise.
The world burns and rampaged by wars through overpopulation that trample underfoot, and the isolation of life and death itself. What happens after you die? Is there an afterlife? Or is there, nothing at all..?

There may be no point in this story, to the end.
Teetering through selfishness, and selflessness, he lose his bearing.
To him, the satisfaction is worth enough.

Again, although there may be no point to this story —
but as desolate and isolated as you are, declare farewell to the pretense of your ego; dance on the ashes, and ordain the remains.
Take chance in the illusion, and live everyday as-if it's your last. <<less
