Ragnarok, this was the event that brought mass extinction to most races. Among them, the human race had always been the weakest. That is why most of the strong races have neglected them, so when all the other forces were exhausted, they bared their fangs. This is not a story about the rise of those humans, no, this story tells the tale of the beginning of the end.... more>>

The Earth had just survived the aftermath of Ragnarok. With most of the landmass turning into wastelands, the people had fought over the remaining fertile earth and amongst all odds, an empire strong enough shook the world and unified it. Years passed and eventually, that empire had begun to rot due to graft and corruption. This resulted in the rise of a man who had revolted against the vile treatment that the citizens received.

He who had once fought for his family, his friends, his people. He continued to ruthlessly slay anyone who stood in his way until one day, he was betrayed by the comrades he trusted, the very country he served, and the very people that he saved. They were the ones to betray him after all that he’s done for their sake. Now, he has come back from the dead for his revenge. He is an Einder. His fifth incarnation, Cray Anderson, shall be the one to succeed his powers. Will he succumb to his ancestor's wrath or will he obtain the power to break away from his fate?

At the edge of the multiverse, tucked within corners and folds of old dimensions, lays a bed of clouds and memories. Each dimension, older then... more>> time itself, held it aloft and sheltered it from wind and rain. On that bed, there lay a single soul as pure as white. However, dimensions eventually die, leaving gaps for this source of energy to be detected.

Harmony Goddess taught him music, Crimson Wargod trained him in martial arts, and Dan God discussed the Dao of Alchemy with him. Too bad no one taught Lei any common sense...

One day, Lei fell in love with a young 300-years-old girl. Known as System Goddess, Jessica was the person closest to his age among those he knew. The stories of her home from the previous life - a strange place named Earth - intrigued him no less than the myths of her ascendance to Godhood.

Now 16 years old, Lei "secretly" escapes the village to become the man worthy of his crush. Then, he'll find her and confess his feelings. In the meantime, he'll travel the vast universe and turn into a legendary cultivator.

In a mess of flashing lights and blaring alarms, an entity enters a portal to another world.This new world was different from their old one, with its blue skies and floating islands.... more>>

One thing led to another, and the entity became the companion of an adventurer. It lived a laid-back life as it traveled two new worlds and learned the beauty of it all.

But everything has to end.

Beasts meant for grey soil and yellow skies, objects with strange properties, men as broken as the world they came from, and life that was not alive.
When the old meets the new, people get hurt.
When the broken meets the fixed, destruction follows.
And when the flames of cataclysm rise once more, something new may rise from the ashes.

As someone is transmigrated, you learn most of the world through their eyes and who maybe close to her.
Sahara has lived and died once before, making her adapting nature look strange and unfitting. In this new world she is a father’s daughter and adopted grandchild to the same man…Go ahead and laugh, she did…
Sahara doesn’t want to put up with nonsense, like getting picked on just because she is smarter than the average person her ‘age’…I mean, she did transmigrate, so of course she’s smarter than what her body’s age should be!
Nonetheless, this world is a dog-eat-dog world, a world where only the strong survives, and so, there are times when a... more>> darkness inside of her is used to keep herself and her loved ones safe…

Over a century ago, there was a Golden Emperor, and a golden bridge that connected all the Haven’s together…Now there is no Golden Emperor and there is no Golden Haven…
To become the one and only Golden Emperor though, one must get the trust of all the Haven’s to accomplish that feat once again…
And so, we continue this journey as the strange occurrence of transmigration has happened…Which only leads to a fate that had started long ago…

A fairy of nature is a creature who lives and dies with nature. They are born with early spring flowers, they live as a natural part of that place, and they die with late autumn frosts. They are generally incapable of rational thoughts, and feel little emotion beyond contentment when the plants in their land are healthy and frustration during droughts or disruptions. They spend their meagre magical abilities tending for their plants. But Fluer is different. She met a human boy, and he gave her a name.... more>>

Hello presumed humans looking for something to read! This short story is planned to be only two or three chapters, and resembles more of an extended poem than typical prose. There are some heavy concepts at the periphery, but overall it is intended to have a sweet to bittersweet tone. I know it's not that popular of a style so if you rate or review it, please try to evaluate it for what it is rather than just a low rating for not being in more familiar narrative format. Rhodonite by the way is a rather cute pink mineral with the composition MnSiO3, manganese inosilicate. <<less

Fire is toasty, but I don't think you're supposed to lay in it, although our main protagonist isn't normal enough to know that.

A young woman is stranded; fortunately she is found, unfortunately it is by an orc.

What happens when a Samurai loses the one they serve? They either commit ritual suicide or they become Rōnin. Outcasts.... more>>

Honorless, disgraceful, and a waste of space are all terms used to describe Rōnin. Rōnin are also to be treated horribly. Almost everyone in Janarn knows this and has been taught this from birth. The Prime Minister's only and young daughter, Roanna, is no exception.

So, when one day she meets a Rōnin in a swamp, she is in total shock and disbelief when she falls head over heels for them. And to add salt to the wound, the Rōnin she falls for is not only female, but is known as a horribly cruel dishonorable psychopath who views life in general as a disgusting thing. Then there is the fact that she is two hundred and thirty-three years old yet looks very young, calling in the question if she is even human.

No matter how hard Roanna tries to deny her feelings, she can't get the Rōnin out of her head. So, she gives in and decides to chase after the Rōnin and try to get the Outcast to fall in love with her, even if the Rōnin is cruel. Even if her reputation may be ruined because of it. Even if the Rōnin may be in love with someone else.

What could go wrong?

...Everything pretty much. After all, one slip up could result in her death.
