Viktor, once a guardian of arcane secrets, now stands condemned, his dark mastery over life and death bringing him to the brink of execution. But an unforeseen calamity halts his demise—a mysterious affliction strikes the village chief, stirring fear and chaos among the villagers.... more>>

Granted an uneasy reprieve, Viktor is thrust into an unlikely role as the village's last hope.

As the quest progresses, the very fabric of the vale seems to unravel, revealing long-buried secrets and a creeping darkness that may stem from Viktor’s own actions. Now, standing alone against the gathering shadows, Viktor must decide whether to seek salvation through the redemption of his soul or further entangle himself in the web of dark forces that threaten to consume the vale and everything he holds dear

Hermes is the Greek God of information, but his ambition is to live the life of a lazy deadbeat. His hopes shattered the day his uncle punches Zeus for not having enough snu-snu time. Zeus betrays Hermes by kicking him out of Mount Olympus to do non-consensual free labor for his uncle, who rules the underworld.... more>>

Hermes starts his new life, whom he has his ex to thank, by meeting a grandbrother with stinky feet, bird people, and an unemployed lizardman. When the Morai sends Hermes to guide the soul of a slave about to die at the Agora, a beautiful woman thwarts his plans. The concerned woman sees Hermes speaking to the lifeless body of the slave and calls for her brother's attention.

A youthful, brash man suddenly approaches Hermes and, shortly after accessing the situation, immediately alerts his bodyguards. Hermes wasn't exactly the most famous among his siblings, and explaining his origins inconveniences Hermes since he has places he needs to be. So, of course, there is no choice but to-RUN. Besides, the last thing Hermes wants is a bunch of mortals manhandling his delicate arms to a prison cell.

Cozy Forest is a cozy fantasy, slice of life web-series about the daily struggle of a small community hidden in the heart of a dense forest, rich in mystery, and magic. Every character is a main character. Everyone has problems of their own. Everyone must do their share to help the village grow, feed itself, survive and strive.... more>>

This is a slow burn. The plot is the intricate relationships between the characters and the growth of the village of Cozy Forest. There will be major arcs and significant changes to the village as the story progresses. Most chapters focus on 1 POV only, so the length varies between 800 to 3,000 words. I don't want write extra fluff to reach a target word count per chapter. When the POV chapter is done, it's done.

I will update daily for at least the next two months, then maybe go down to 5 times a week. As it stands, I am 16 chapters ahead of publication schedule. <<less

 *****

What to expect from my story:

1. Clever (not pushover) humane MC
2. In-depth lore explanation (Story is a bit slow-burn at the start)
3. Strategic Battles (Not 1-hit KO)
4. Funny character interactions
5. Twists. Lots of it.
6. Real-world conspiracies, Mysticism, Spiritual Practices, Esoteric Knowledge
7. For Fellow Pinoys: Peenoise Memes and references

*****

Note: While some settings in this story are based on real locations and events, most concepts and characters are products of the author’s imaginative mind. They should not be treated as absolute truth in any way.

After all, this is just a fictional story. Or is it? <<less

No, this is not a Fate fanfic.... more>>

I am simply reimagining a beloved character from the first story ever written by humanity from those ancient days, and taking my spin on it.

This is the second, renewed version of the story since apparently the first one was too incomprehensible. I have tried my best to make this one much more coherent, so please stick around and I am sure the story will make sense.

This is a story of the struggles of Gilgamesh, and how he went beyond the horizons to undo the toils of mortals.
