Stone. ... more>>

Stone is cold. Stone is hard. Stone doesn't love or care. Stone is... Cruel.

Medusa, a powerful naga mage with snake hair was having her revenge against the family that destroyed her life, the woman that stole the love of her life, the man that was the love of her life, and the children they had... She swore to kill every each of them!

But... The last child, a small baby, was blind. He couldn't look in her eyes and become stone. She thought of killing this baby, but it was then that she saw him smiling and giggling, her stone heart melt into a magma hot heart that emanated love and care.

This baby, however, wasn't a normal baby... He didn't need his eyes to see because he could see everything perfectly.

Reincarnation is something strange.

You die, and then you are reborn! Normally you wouldn't even know you have been reborn because all your memories would be wiped out, but it didn't happen with our protagonist.

For some reason, he knows he used to live on earth, and also know that he died... Kinda. But what matters is what happened while he was on the white room. . <<less

Leon was not a normal young man. He was extremely sick, a disease that caused him agony just to breathe, let alone move. As a result, his body grew fat, and his health declined to the point where he would probably only last another year.... more>>

When he opened his eyes, he was no longer in his bedroom, but inside a large cauldron. Priests and wizards surround the cauldron, while soldiers, knights, and nobility watch.

"Begin the ceremony! Drain him of his greatest power!" Shouts the Queen who looks on with hideous delight as he suffers in agony.

This world is not his own, but the power they steal is what was killing him. This world would forever curse the dark kingdom of Erat that fell that night.

It was their dark magic that brought to their world an existence that his own world cursed to prevent his eventual rise.

The rise of a being that would give birth to a Kingdom that would grind all others under its bootheel.

The rise of the Beast King. <<less

Something tore the old world apart.... more>>

Nobody knows what, when, why, or how. All that's left are dried remnants of the past and the birth of a new, savage, cruel world. Subjek woke up right at the cusp of a turning age for this desolate landscape; two roaring factions vying to take control of a new civilization. Amidst the chaos Subjek embarks on his journey towards his own humble goal; to bury the ashes of his maker.

Or rather, to sink her fucking ashes to the bottom of the ocean.

Stars rain from the sky. They shatter the earth, and their ichor fills her wounds. Mire. The sacred substance which either kills or transforms any living thing it touches. That which remakes the world. ... more>>

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. But when she's made an heir after the death of her cousin, she's forced to give up her dreams and travel to her birthplace--even as stars fall, new and horrible beasts roam the land, and tensions mount between nations.

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. But if it means saving the lands and people she loves, she's more than ready to wear the crown.

I, Mick Chadwick, regret to inform my readers that this memoir contains nothing but the truth, which in the case of Tobias MacClain, most ridiculed as Pajama Boy, is far from pleasant. If you seek to relate to a hero more than to aspire to them and have the stomach for unpleasant things such as a hero left for dead, villainous scars, bomb threats, and murderous intent, then look no further. All of these gruesome things and more await from my research, and though I do not wish them on any man or woman, I cannot bear this burden on my own much longer. ... more>>

In the words of Tobias MacClain himself, "Sometimes, a villainous act can cause the greatest good." I hope that all my villainous acts of sneaking, blackmailing, diary-reading, and grave-digging, among others, will be redeemed as I present this complete and truthful memoir to the world, and with any luck, open eyes to the truth of what we call "villainy". <<less

As a bastard child Era Anumbra had hard time getting higher in rank, often getting bullied by higher ranked nobles and royal attendands, as Era didn’t have any backing from higher ups, they often dumped part of their work on him.

Era got not only disgraced and humilitated, but he also got very seriously injuried - full extend of his... more>> injuries was unknown…
After healing a bit he left the country, only to return years later being chased by “Ater Rex”… He died in explosion of dark flames, leaving nothing but a pitiful smoking ashes, that got swept off by the wind, later people were telling that his screams were so loud and painful that somehow must have reached the palace.
Origins of “Ater Rex” are unknown, as he appeared out of nowhere, gaining bad reputation after a long chase through the royal city, where in the end he spectacularly killed some recently disgraced royal official – a poor victim of political schemes. This started massive panic, as he later appeared in the castle, his entrance unnoticed by the guards… and he never takes off his mask...

Author's Note: I wanted to try my hand at writing something like a shojo for once. This has been a story idea for a while, and I decided to make something much shorter than I usually write.

A re-telling of Phantom of the Opera, but not in the way you think.... more>>

The year is 1921. It is the tenth year of the Taisho era, a time of rapid modernization, an embracing of the arts, and a rise of clashing ideals within society.

Kiyoko Daichi has lost everything, including her voice. Her darling Papa, a humble violinist, was taken from her in the form of a cruel illness. Her childhood best friend has been sent off to fight in Siberia, and his elder brother, the patriarch of the family, has told her not to contact him from now on. With nothing left but the ashes of crumbling dreams, Kiyoko seeks to somehow fulfill the dream her father had for her: become a songstress.

Lost and alone except for the letters from Russia from her persistent friend and mementos of her father, Kiyoko stumbles upon a rather interesting musical theatre troupe looking for new members. Their director, a mysterious man whose face no one has ever beheld, invites them all to perform his pieces in a decaying, abandoned theater, where he rewards their courage to perform on that rundown stage generously...

...provided they ask no questions. None.

Accepting a role in the chorus, Kiyoko thinks that perhaps this is her chance to sing like she dreamed for her Papa after all. She throws herself into her roles and continues to answer her dear friend's letters and begs him to come home. As they perform piece after piece, there seems to be something in the shadows, a Voice at once enchanting and terrifying, seeping through the walls, everywhere at once as the floorboards themselves begin to tell a very, very different story of their benefactor.

Who is this man? What does he want with them? And why is there a rumbling in the theatre, spreading through the ceiling and dripping down the walls, coming closer and closer every time that Voice sings?

And what does the Voice want with Kiyoko? <<less
