Lilia would rather sleep all day than go to class. Avoiding her problems sounds like a better idea than getting hurt. But that was just a typical day for a girl living on a military school compound surrounded by the greenest Wastelands that ever existed. It doesn't help that she and five others were in hiding. Her species were the ones responsible for almost destroying the human race. Well, at least she wasn't alone. However, that brings about another source of problems.... more>>

Do they all get along? No. Are they stuck together for the rest of their lives? Yes. Do they all need therapy? Darn, right, they do.

So this is Lilia's (Bryson, Druid, Heather, Terran, and Shadow)'s story; I hope you like it.

My friend photographed the picture. She allowed me to use it for my novel.

Constructive criticism is appreciated.

It's been a couple of years, so I am reposting and editing. This is the best way for me to know where I'm at and where I need to go with the story.

Thank you. <<less

Taking all of Esports by storm, the world of the gaming phenomenon known as 'CyberGrounds' was where Akio Nakamura made a name for himself. Working his way up the ladder, one outplay at a time, his final goal of reaching that illusive rank of Immortal was only cut short by the game's sudden disappearance.

Reintroduced a few years later, transitioning from mouse and keyboard to being the world's first VRMMO Esport, Akio was one amongst most of the world who brought into it's  bought into it's promise. However, that promise happened to be smoke and mirrors as now him and millions of other players are trapped in a death game designed to bring out the worst in humanity, and where dying in-game means the same in reality as well. Only way to escape? Reach Immortal Rank.

Finding himself in this cruel twist of fate, Akio's journey to escape the confines of Arc Sanctuary begins, but he soon finds out that nothing is the same as it used to be...even old bonds that he once thought that could never be tainted. <<less

That's what it takes to live for misguided, ill-fated soldiers, born with a sole purpose, cursed with infertility and limited mortality, with no hope in a better world. Could they see their end of days and be spared of such a nonsensical burden, or would they die trying? The world of Echobyss explores that struggle at a large scale in a constant, fast-paced war that explores the inner and global conflict of the people doomed to live it despite how pointless it may be. <<less

Soune Argent wants a quiet life.... more>>

However, such a privilege is rare on Durendel.

Pockets of civilisation are kept in check by growth-hungry corporations and a stern-handed government. Any and all actions are watched by an orbital ring ready to stifle conflicts before they can start, scouring outcasts and undesirables from the face of the scarred planet. All for the sake of maintaining peace.

Soune Argent is a victim of this peace. Narrowly saved from the destruction of her home as a child, she was raised in and taught to survive the chaotic lands that litter the world. Now alone once more, she seeks to claim a spot for herself within an Oasis' and finally live a life free from struggle. The path to peace is hardly a straight one, fraught with conflicts and conspiracy. Along the way, Soune discovers she isn't quite as alone as she thought, or that the history of the world is as straightforward as it seems.

To survive on Durendel is a struggle, to thrive even moreso. To be happy is a fight against the system, a fight worth picking.

Inspired by a myriad of settings and stories spanning from the peaks of high fantasy and sci-fi to low, grounded character driven dramas; Stray Stars blends dark fantasy elements into a conflict-fueled future, focusing on the people who struggle against that world and the connections that are forged from it. <<less

What to expect:
- MC's steady progression of superpower and skills
- Somewhat of a hard Sci-Fi approach to the MC's superpower at the beginning
- Immersive world-building (dystopian)
- Theme: Heroism vs Vigilantism
- Cinematic action scenes! (after MC's training arc). Moments of visceral violence
- Interesting cast of characters
- Multiple POV (not too many, just within a few important characters)
- Minor political intrigues and mysteries

Do not expect:
- LitRPG

Vincent had a weird nightmare.... more>>

Humanity was destroyed.
The city he called home burned to the ground, his home blew up, and his loved ones died one by one before his eyes as he watched in crippling desperation, knowing one day it would be his turn.
When the nightmare truly ended, he opened his eyes to the bottom of the sea and a world that he knew nothing about.
—
Even though the MC is literally chased by the time, there will be many slices of life, tons of world-building, and interaction with many different characters. The burn will slow as our main character, Vincent, searches for his family and friends in a System world that is brimming with monsters wanting to take a sweet bite from his flesh and time.
—
This book’s main goal is to build a mysterious System world where to require anything–stats, skills, food, or even a little bit of underwear— you need to sacrifice something dear to you, your own limited lifespan. Also, I want to write interesting characters and build a culture built upon this ‘Time is all’ mechanic.
—
There will be stats but also the cultivation mechanics.
The system actively manipulates its inhabitants instead of only giving out free power and being done with it.
Our protagonist, Vincent, is a young man in his early twenties, also an ex-college-freshman with many regrets and errors, but he understands those facts too late.

***I am planning to release daily until it is chapter ten, then two times a week schedule (Monday-Friday)

*** The first ten chapters are short, but later chapters will be much longer. (2700~ words)
