Elias and friends thought it was just a storm, everyone at Avonside University did, but when the clouds cleared and the sky was revealed again, they were met with a strange sky. Gone were the city lights and everything beyond the limits of their campus, replaced by a mountain wilderness. Elias is further swept away when he is torn from his friend's grasp and transformed beyond recognition. Will the newly dubbed Ryn find her way back to her friends, and or will she return to Avonside to find it ransacked and destroyed by the strange and magical forces that inhabit the new world?... more>>

Dara had been whipped to within an inch of her life by her father, and for the simplest of reasons. She existed. Her anger, rage, and hatred of the man drew a being to her like a moth to a flame.... more>>

The Queen of the Varra was not a denizen of Imera. Her people were already dead, and she was the last of her kind. When she used the last of her energy to find a suitable vessel, she found Dara dying at the hands of her father. This was the perfect opportunity.

'Daughter. I have come for you.' Like a demon's voice, she spoke to Dara. 'Eat the seed, and gain great strength.' Without a second thought, Dara swallowed the seed that appeared in her hand.

For the queen, it was salvation for her people. For Dara, that voice was the gentlest tone that has ever been aimed at her. Once that seed entered her belly, she became that voice's true daughter.

In the dark, the Eyeless find strength. In the darkness that they can create, the Eyeless can and will thrive.

This is a rewrite of the original story, and new chapters will be added as they are written. It will take a while, as I have too many projects on the go. The world will be better explained, but at the same time, not all at once. Don't read the first chapter and expect all the answers.

Special note - There is violence, sadism, sex, and sex against one's will. There will be murder, intrigue, gods and goddesses, with a female MC who is not cute and cuddly like some. She is strong and smart, but with a beauty that can terrify those who try to bring her harm. <<less

Despite being born sparkless, Adion had always dreamed of becoming a mage.... more>>

That is something his family clan doubts he will ever achieve. But Adion has an unbreakable will, and no one can question that his mana control is better than anyone his age.

But will that be alone enough? Perhaps under other circumstances, but trouble is brewing on the continent, and Adion is about to be caught up in the middle of it. When hidden organizations show themselves and ancient beasts reawaken, Adion is going to need power, and he is going to need it fast.

What to expect:

- MC that is driven by revenge and a desire to protect.

- Weak to strong. MC wields unique powers that he has to figure out himself.

- Mainly western xianxia progression with mana.

- Action-filled but with a lot of focus on characters and dialogue as well.

Schedule: 5 chapters/week (Mon-Fri) / ~2500 words per chapter.

In 2023, an otherworldly rift spills a mysterious energy into the universe, and Earth bears its brunt. Almost overnight, the world witnesses catastrophic changes—dungeons emerge from the ground, animals undergo evolution, monsters claim the streets, and humans awaken to newfound supernatural abilities. Amidst this chaos, remnants of ancient history resurface, revealing forgotten legends and beliefs. The world's past, it seems, is intricately entwined with its apocalyptic present.... more>>

Zayzal El-Athanasios, a fiery, quick-witted young man of Greek and Egyptian descent, is among the survivors who gain unique talents. <<less

In a world teetering on the brink of chaos and technological revolution, Valnor finds himself caught in a web of intrigue and betrayal. Raised in the shadow of the Tarkhan Yazanae, he is the outsider who has risen to become his father's most trusted ally. But when the Tarkhan is murdered, he is framed for the crime, and is forced to flee the palace he has called home.... more>>

As Valnor ventures into the dangerous and unknown lands beyond, he must unravel the conspiracy that threatens not only his own life but the fate of the entire realm. With his blood brother by his side, they embark on a journey to uncover the truth and clear Valnor's name.
From the depths of the Sea of Seclusion to the heights of Mount Zolaris, they will confront ancient mysteries, treacherous enemies, and unexpected allies. In a world filled with wonder, danger, and deception, Valnor must learn to trust his instincts and rely on his wits if he hopes to survive and restore justice.

Will he be able to navigate the treacherous waters of politics and deception, or will he become just another casualty in a deadly game of power? <<less

Are you sick of characters gaining supreme powers without earning them? Do you get sick of the phrase "A jack of all trades but a master of none?" ... more>>

Well I am! And as the author I welcome you to this wonderful book following the tales of Vincent! for once I'm gonna make a MC that isn't OP because some god made a stupid mistake or because they for some unexplained reason got a system out of nowhere (don't get me wrong i do genuinely enjoy such stories but recently I've gotten a bit tiered of such tales) in this story it will be earned! Practice makes perfect! <<less

Alexander King loves the idea of an isekai just as much as the next person. Reading about someone who was plucked out of our world and thrown into a world full of magic and danger and watching them struggle to make sense of the chaos around them as they rise to power.... more>>

But those things are just supposed to stay as stories, they weren't meant to happen to him. Reality was never as forgiving as fiction and he had no doubt that if he ended up in one of these worlds he'd more than likely die some sad pathetic death, nor did he particularly have a desire to leave his family and friends. So naturally, with his luck, he wakes up God-knows-where with a system status in front of his eyes only to almost instantly die too the hostile environment around him.

Alex is definitely going to find his way back... If he can avoid being killed by the godlike beings that happen to just be everywhere on this world first.

I guess I should throw this out there and it's probably important that I should do so to clearly state my intentions with this story. This is not going to be a happy-go-lucky story all the way through. It will start relatively upbeat, but there are going to be dark parts. There's going to be things that are hard to stomach, things that will make you uncomfortable. If that's not something you like, that's fine. Not every story is for everyone, maybe this one won't be for you.

To allay some questions this story is not designed to be a torture porn sort of fic. But that doesn't mean I will shy away from talking about characters being tortured or abused. I also won't skip through those portions of the story in an attempt to get them done more quickly. These things need to run their course in order for the importance of the circumstances to fully be imparted into the story. If you as a reader need to skip over these moments, that's perfectly fine. I do that myself in certain fics/shows when I start feeling uncomfortable. That's just a natural reaction. Anyway, I've gotten a couple of people who haven't been happy with it, and that's fine. I don't begrudge those people for disliking these parts of the story, I'm just putting this out there so that future readers come in knowing what to expect instead of being unfortunately blind-sided by my nearsightedness on the situation. I definitely should've had a warning up way earlier for people about this.

5. Twists. Lots of it.

This is my first story. I would appreciate if you could leave a review, so that I can improve my writing in the future. The direction of the story is mostly decided, so hopefully no writer's block. I'll try to stick to a weekly update schedule. Also, tell me if the chapters are too long, I'll try to write shorter ones. Currently I'm sticking to ~1k words/chap.

The new Frontier. ... more>>

A supposed land mass far beyond the coast of Mundus that supposedly holds all sorts of treasures and wonderous beasts.

Whatever the truth may be, all agree that the actual state of this ‘imaginary’ land remains ambiguous.

Nally Stenner, the daughter of a mighty Lord who resides in the western region, grew up hearing stories about this wonderous realm. Now profoundly intrigued by its mysteries, she sets out to see the world.

It was dreamt that a world under the protection of the Blossoms - magical girls blessed by light and tasked with great purpose - would be a world that knows only peace, where sorrow was no more than a distant memory.

If such a thing could ever even be taught in the first place, that is. <<less
