When everything in existence suffers a change, or welcomes it, and what is to come has finally come - would it beget with its origination the terror, deathliness, tragedy, torment and devastation? Or would it, by any chance, differ from its authentic nature and reality?... more>>

In the deepest of the first starless dark blue night, its point of origin vastly different from the one where everything 'began'... a beautiful hand reaches to taint the most fearsome. Would its origin bring chaos to it all?
--- *** ---

What are the words that hold the utmost power? What are the thoughts that break it all? Which are those who shine brightest, gloom darker, and explode defiantly against reality who prevail?

Any lifeform of the world, no matter how advanced and evolved; all become subject to terror for the very same ones:

One, afraid of the dark. Two, of the violent forces of Nature. Three, of Injustice.

It's not about having the reason on your side; it's not about having the power to demand for subservience and is not whether one is right or not... It's about taking it all with your own hands!

No darkness is gloom without light to obverse it; no light shines brighter without endless emptiness. But it is only one that is; only that has been; only one that can; that will; that KNOWS.

One little grain of sand can evolve into a dried-up sea; one little animal can become a monster; one sole thought can become reality... But can any of them regress, lose it all, suffer nonsensically, and beget — 'all that exists and there is'?

Would they be willing to? ...Can they do it? ...Do they understand?

Synopsis for dummies:

Born in a world where every imaginable thing is so advanced even the earth one can step on moves and thinks, met with the pureness of nature at birth, and touched by the unimaginable.

To see the future is for fools. To long for the past is too late. But to see ahead is the only road.

What might be a long and arduous lifelong objective for one can be a simple step for others. What others can't see might be sensed by someone else. And to walk as one never betrays themselves... is glory.

When the bells ring, the heavens change, the world trembles, and a change is called upon... Will there finally be that something that has been missing? What the world had lacked all this long? What... the world deserves? Will a person change that? Will they do it all alone, terribly consumed in coldness and leaving horrors wherever that person walks? Or will there be a returning change that the world has even forgotten for... ever?

Even the smallest of rebellions and uprisings... can be the start of everything.

The Slayer and The Vixen. The world's greatest monster hunter and bounty hunter, respectively. Through their combined efforts, the world has been able to enjoy an era of peace for nearly a decade since the end of The Drazah War. But when their identities and the source of their power is revealed, all of their admiration turns to terror and they're deplored as the worst Fiends alive. Wanting nothing more than to service the world they feel responsible for, the pair must find new ways to help those who fear them. These Fiends are For Hire.... more>>

Fiends For Hire is a Modern Fantasy that is a blend of Action and Slice-of-Life with Anti-Hero leads. The series is currently over 3,500 pages long.

What to expect:

-A lot of Slice-of-Life. This series could be also be known as 'The Daily Lives of Anti-Heroes.' There is still a lot of Action, Comedy, World-Building, and Conflict, but Slice-of-Life is the main focus.

-A slow burn main plot. Not every chapter may seem like it's building towards the ultimate end, and some are just for fun. But virtually every chapter has new lore, world-building, character development, and/or subtle clues hinting at the mysteries of the series.

-Overpowered and Eccentric Characters with a lot of unique abilities. As the series progresses, OP vs OP fights and conflict become more common.

-Some very wholesome and some very dark moments. They are Anti-Heroes after all, so you get the good and the bad.

This series is NOT:
-Progression Fantasy -LitRPG -Cultivation -Isekai -Harem

New Volume 3 Chapter(s) every week. Volumes 1 and 2 complete!

So, Fate grants her wish. She is now The Child of Miracles, the wielder of the strongest essence in the world of thaumaturgy...

===========================================

What to expect in this story:
What to expect in this story:
1. A slow, classic progressive fantasy narrative that focuses not only on the characters but also on the intricacies of magic, spells, and the individuals who practice them.

2. No blue boxes.

3. The main character, while deeply passionate about magic and the mystic arts, struggles with her own inability to wield it. She possesses a vast knowledge of magic trivia and learns to control her anxiety over time in order to prevent her habitual impulsive actions.

4. MC is "Scottish" (inspired) so expect some of the dialects and the foreign terms as part of the world-building. But along the way, the dialect will be reduced along with MC travelling outside her hometown. The translations for these terms will be provided in a dedicated glossary in the first entry. Feel free to share your feedback regarding any terms that may have been overlooked.

The Eternal War:

Raimie has been living a nice, boring existence in a safe corner of the woods until he comes across a random sword in the forest, and after that, everything changes. On the run from a powerful magic wielder, he’s forced to accept that he’s the last heir to a royal line, foretold to cast down the ancient evil suppressing his family’s native land. The invisible beings trailing his every step, along with the suspiciously magical anomalies they prompt in him, aren’t helping with that goal. Oh, and if that weren’t enough, the nightmares he’s had all his life have twisted into something weird and yet surprisingly familiar.

Thank the gods for family and the new friend he’s made along the way. Maybe things will turn out ok, if he could get a moment to think.

Oh, nope. There’s another threat coming to wreck his life. Time to run again.

******
This story was initially released on Royal Road.

It will start out very stereotypically for the first few chapters (for epic fantasy at least). If you can tolerate a couple of seeming tropes (i.e. the Chosen One etc.) for 5 or so chapters, I promise that The Eternal War will diverge into much more interesting storylines. I like writing slow burns, taking my time to establish characters etc., before getting into the exciting bits of a story. I also thoroughly enjoy trying to subvert tropes, although how successful I am with that is up to the individual reader, of course.

I will update the book every day until volume one is complete, and after that, I'll switch to a Wednesday/Saturday release schedule. <<less

“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.”

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

Naya's life in the Elven land wasn't a difficult one. With her mother's reputation as a powerful Arcanist, she was afforded a luxurious life. All that shackled her were the impossible expectations placed upon her and keeping up with her peers.
