Yoruichi needs a vacation. Its been almost 80 years since she escaped the Soul Society with Kisuke and Tessai. However, she had been complaining about the vacation she wanted so badly a bit too much. Kisuke and Tessai decide to test a prototype Garaganta portal on her, their latest (i.e. Kisuke's) of a series of pranks against her, this time in revenge for the utter annoying complaints she had been regaling them with. The portal opens to a deserted tropical island, the perfect place for a cat to kick back, relax, and stew in the vacation she wanted so much. ... more>>

Unbeknownst to any of them, things are about to get a whole lot weirder.

With trouble as her only constant bedmate, the only aim, after being exiled, was to spend her life in peace and relative obscurity. A chance encounter brought back memories of her last love. The more she pursued, the more question she faced and the people who were close to her are not what they appear to be. ... more>>

Even in exile, her constant bedmate would not stop. Now, being hunted, embroiled in an age-old conspiracy, torn apart by various factions, how is a lone drow to survive? Of course, by doing what she did best, raising an army. For the dark-elf Matrons have a nasty habit of not staying down when knocked. They rise up again and come back with fury.

______________________________________________________________Volume II______________________________________________

Things should have been easy for Rylonvirah. The exiled drow matriarch has finally reunited with the love of her life, Lyria. But from the north descends a new threat, the Cambion Warlord, in his bid for ascension, to claim the title of the demon lord, rallies his horde.

Will Rylonvirah and Lyria reforge the broken bonds between them? Will the Warlord drown the world in a sea of fire? While enemies both old and new beset Rylonvirah, her greatest obstacle is Lyria herself— and the pregnant secret that she harbours.

===== Series Info=======
The world-building is a combination of DnD, Pathfinder and Elderscrolls. Though I prefer to take a few liberties if possible.

The yuri/GL Is an **extremely slow** burn one.

=====Author Notes=====

This is my first writing attempt, and in the spirit of full disclosure, I am not a native English speaker and I am hoping to use this chance to improve my writing.

Constructive criticisms are always welcome.

I have a full-time job but I would try to keep the releases consistent.

______________Announcements______________

1. Monday and Thursday release.

2. Explicit scenes will have a content warning. I was told by some kind folks to mark explicit chapters with ❤❤❤, to protect the purity of innocent SH readers. So they will be marked accordingly. :)

3. The real plot takes a while to get started. For those of you who stuck through, You have my thanks.

4. Hit 100 chapters finally and Volume II ongoing. <<less

__________________________________________
I'm utilising AI in fixing my grammar and revising my sentences. (And I'm learning from retyping everything they revised, so if you found typo, it must be me.)

Also, I had AI assisting me in crafting some of the dialogues - its hard for me to grab the British slang.

You may find the structure of the story a bit weird, because I started out as Chinese web novelist (though not famous, and not earning any because it's my hobby), so my writing habit have somewhat improved? Anyway, you can experience the culture different in writing in my story, I guess. -smile-

The cover was made using Copilot and the tools a computer has by default, crappy, but that's my best because can't afford to commission an artist for a pretty cover. -wryly smile-

PS: No guarantee on finishing the story (but I have at least 120k words drafted), because the main purpose of me writing it is, that this story had been haunting me for a few months, and it's a relief after I drained it all into a word document. Though I'll try my best to give it a good ending, just, no guarantee on it.

PS again: I'll try my best not to have the characters OOC, but no guarantee about that as well.

Notes: You might get a little confuse by the first 20 chapters because the story jumped back and forth between the current timeline and the flashbacks. However, You can totally skip the flashbacks if you're not interested in those parts! I've marked them in the chapter titles so you can easily choose the current timelines. And please don't worry, the flashbacks are just that – flashbacks! They won't affect the current timeline at all. You can read the story however you like, whether that's reading all the current timelines first and then the flashbacks, or reading all the flashbacks first before moving on to the current timeline. It's entirely up to you! [OwO] <<less

In the city of Graheel, a small antique shop sits quietly mixed in with all the other shops. Its unassuming appearance is easily overlooked by many. However, this store and its owner has a terrible secret. A devil lives in that building. ... more>>

The owner of the store, John Li, an enigmatic figure whose origins and intentions are unknown. The desperate from around the world, often unknowingly, come to him in search of salvation.

This mysterious individual and his customers would stand at the center of a strange series of events.

From the store owner John's perspective, he has no idea what's going on. He really was just an unlucky dude that got caught up in some crazy stuff.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Volume 1: Strange Beginnings” Chapter 1-46

“What does a depressed student, investigator, a wanted witch, refugee, priest, and a man from another world have in common… nothing actually. Just that where they started was a little special, but where they are all headed is somewhere truly strange. For eventually they will cross paths with each other both directly and indirectly. In the meantime, there's a whole bunch of strange deaths and murders going on in the city of Graheel.”

"Volume 2: A Gathering Of The Fateless” Chapter 47-?

"The mysterious murders in the university have been resolved, or has it? There might have been more involved in that matter that is still brewing, drawing both Alan and Cid back in as well as a certain investigator. The priest Crowley will have to make a tough choice that will test his convictions and involve him in things he never thought he be doing as a priest. All while Joe is still far from solving who murdered Rob, and is about to make a desperate move to get the information he needs. The red witch prepares to take action against the Graheel University to protect her new disciple while being forced to work with other patrons of John. All different people taking different paths in their lives, but are about to meet at a crossroads, forming new groups and alliances.

"And finally John discovers his reason for him being transported to this world, or maybe not. Trying to get a simple-to-understand answer from an eldritch being is not so easy. "

This story is a slow burn and has many lead characters and points of views, so don't expect too much in the first few chapters. I'm a very, and i mean very, slow writer so I'll only be updating this once a week on Saturdays. I also release mini intermission chapters in between my regulars updates sporadically.

This story is also written in a weird experimental playwright style to allow quick and easy conversation between multiple people to occur at once. This style might not might not appeal to some.

Also, if it wasn't obvious, most of the artwork you see in this series is AI generated. <<less

And heaven shall ring with anthems o’er the deed they mean to do,
For his soul is marching on. ... more>>

The land of Gemeinplatz is a land filled with fantastical creatures, adventurers looking to slay them, and heroes looking to distinguish themselves from the adventurers. The most common of these heroes are those who come from Earth, who enjoy a most leisurely time with their cheat skills. It’s a perfect world, the utopia of those who wish to become overpowered and get their own power fantasy, where even the most everyman of the everyman can pull themselves by their bootstraps and become a hero.

Yet, underneath this “Gemeinplatzer Dream” is a disgusting truth.

To satisfy the needs of heroes who can’t find function like a normal human being (which most of them can’t), the lucrative Gemeinplatz slave trade crushes the dreams and ruins the lives of hundreds every day. These slaves endlessly labor, in the harems of so-called heroes, at the mansions of the landowning “heroes”, and as rare materials for various dubious magical spells.

In a world that looks down at them as demi-human, where the ruling class has no incentive to end this profitable trade, in which their oppressors are overpowered as all hell, what hope is there for the slaves?

What hope is there, is named John Brown. This time, he’ll finish what he started.

This is the first volume of the novel-length adaptation of the John Brown Isekai. <<less

A man finds his soul trapped inside a medieval armor without a physical body in a fantastical world. How will he reclaim his freedom and ability to move? Or will he never do so? How will he survive? How will he live? What will he do?... more>>

Follow his tale as he ventures within this enchanting and unfamiliar world with his new form, discovering his place and passion along the way.

It was dark, pitch black. Where am I? Where was I last? I died. Am I still dead? A light so dim, yet so blindingly bright to me appeared in a vertical line.

And my body continued to move until it was outside of the crypt.... more>>

It was night, but there was a full moon. And a young girl in front of me. She clutched a black book to her chest as if it were the last thing she had left in this world. I've heard stories of this, I imagined the possibility, but I never thought it would happen to me.

Tears streaked down her cheeks. She choked the words out. "Please, save my papa!"

You know, when I closed my eyes and went into torpor, I had no idea the world could change so much in two hundred years. It was only supposed to be a week and then I’d be back to ruling Encinar. Now there’s elves everywhere and people are telling me some System infects the whole world and gives boons to those who use it! ... more>>

And if you told me three days ago that vampires could be born from drinking a potion, I would have cut your head off for such heresy. Now there’s one such vampire calling me sire! I feel like a fledgling again thanks to the System, so why. Why did my sire and I agree to take on a ThinGen vampire as a trainee?

I need a drink, but there’s even more rules in place now. I have to buy that God forsaken manure they call canned blood! Oh what I wouldn’t give for a proper drink of vampire blood.

By the moon, my fangs ache and someone’s on my throne!

〈A Bowl of Rice〉 and 〈Ten Pieces of Gold〉 are the same to me as long as they‘re shared with you. I want to go through the 〈Good Times〉 and the bad times with you. I 〈Dare〉 you to 〈Fight for It〉 if we are ever about to lose hope. It‘s just like an 〈Adventure〉 that the two of us will only be able to pass together.

If you have to 〈Walk Alone〉 for a stretch of this path, then I will be 〈Waiting for You〉 at the finish line whether it‘s for 〈Five Days〉 or 〈Twenty-five Years〉, not caring if we move 〈Into a Palace〉 or live in a 〈Lonely Hut〉. I would only be 〈Brokenhearted〉 if you weren‘t with me at the end.

So please, 〈Promise Yourself to Me〉 because among all the men of this world, I am unable to choose anyone but you.
