That boy was supposed to save our world from the wrath of the Demon King. And while the King is dead, an even worse threat has arisen: the boy himself! I don't know how he came to this world, but I'm going to be the one to take him out of it. The only problem is, I've heard he's super strong. As in, destroy-the-world-if he-so-much-as-sneezes strong. What am I, a prince of a lowly kingdom going to do about it? Honestly, I have no idea. What I do know is that I'm the only one willing to step up. ... more>>

Sure, there's the hero part, but that worm also stole my attendant to add to his collection of girls! Joke's on him, I've got one of his girls as my companion, though this one seems to be dumber than a sack of rocks.

For time immemorial, the Empire has waged war. ... more>>

They turned their fangs on all who wouldn’t stand with them, striking down both friend and foe alike— forging a legacy of cloaked daggers and bloody struggles in the dark. Theirs is a throne built on the backs of countless tragedies and a million atrocities.

Nevertheless, time passes, and with it, so did memory of their bloodstained deeds.

Now, on an isolated island where a nation grows unchecked, where a new generation grows up without the glory of war, where age-old miracles are spun into new stories, and new inventions serve older purposes— The Empire lives in a time of mundane wonder and tenuous peace.

That isn’t to say that the old horrors have been idle, despite being forgotten.

Where war no longer decimates the street, insidious growths flourish in the shadows of the city's golden lights; modern nightmares veiled in theological lace and rotting silks prowl the dark, all the while less monstrous monsters grow fat on the ruins of war-torn nations.

In another world, heroes wielding virtuous ideals and divine decrees would’ve taken a stand, but the era of stark villainy and righteous heroics are long dead, mercilessly ground to dust and buried beneath the ashes of their world.

Yet despite this, nestled within the capital proper, lives a girl who wants nothing more than to live a steady life. The issues within her society couldn’t mean less to her. After all, she has bigger things to worry about, like deciding what to wear, unearthing the secrets of long-lost art, and fulfilling those promises she made all those years ago.

But as the novelty of peace grows old, and as old plans come to fruition and older enemies crawl into the light, her plans to secure a quiet life grow more distant than ever.

Starry Eyed is a high fantasy web novel about troubled individuals trying to make their way in an uncaring world, where larger-than-life problems often seem more insignificant than personal ones, where old virtues are perverted and new evils are caught in a bittersweet light. The story is set in a world where modern-day fantasy magic meets Victorian and steampunk revolution, in a time similar to our own second industrial revolution, with hints of enlightenment and renaissance era ideals, mixed with contemporary themes.

I died, I suppose. And now, I am in hell, living a second life as one of the demons.... more>>

Or that is what it seems has happened, anyway. The dark elves are a subterranean race, who have a dark ritual in which one of their children have their soul spliced and merged together in a Frankenstein manner with the powerful earth-elemental spirits known as gnomes. I was one such child, and I was born in this life retaining the memories of both my previous lives.

And now I must survive in this hell in which my entire society expects me, a normal teen boy in my previous life and a lowly gnome wandering the Agarath in my other, to be some form of slaughtering warrior for their dark and war-crazed society.

In this hopeless situation, the only ray of light that shines is the promise. There are others like me. I am not the only one who retained memories of my previous life on Earth, and I must find them so I can escape this dark fate.

This is a parallel series to my Key to the Void series. You do not need to read Key to the Void to follow this series, but they do take place in the same world and at the same time period, and reading both series will help the reader have a more complete understanding of the bigger picture behind the scenes that is unfolding between the two stories.

Official Title: The Criswell's Curse... more>>

Ophelia lived. Then she died.
Like clockwork, her death was predetermined by the flames of fate, emerging in the darkness of her 18th birthday. Yet, time rewinded. Again. And again. After 9 lives of being abused, neglected, married off to monsters instead of men, she had enough.
A saint, some called her. A vixen, others murmured. No one in the high nobility knew who this girl truly was, yet none seemed to not yearn for more, to look away from her bewitching grace. And as chess pieces gather, from the most eligible bachelors in the kingdom to women with peculiar tastes; Ophelia observes the pawns slowly moving, their actions causing bloodshed everywhere they touch. And she loves it.
Has her soul become evil, or has she merely gone insane?

Sneak Peak:
"
“You are both revoked from your duties as my handmaids and hereby expelled from the Wharton’s estate.”
“Thank you, milady!”
“But since you damaged the dresses, you are to repay their full price within three years. If you refuse or fail to obey this command, you’ll have two fingers removed. Pack your things and go.”
“But that’s impossible! You know we can’t pay that amount! You are dooming us to fail, Ophelia!”
The Duke was standing at the corner of the room, looking at them as if they were nothing but mere ants, ready to be squashed at a moment’s notice; however, reality only sunk when they saw the wide grin on my lips.
“I don’t recall giving you permission to address me so casually.” My figure leaned forward, approaching their desperate expressions with satisfaction tingling beneath my skin. “You’ve raised me since I was but an infant, however, my mercy won’t be tested any further.”

Reincarnation, fantasy, and magic, in my past life world there was no such thing yet I read some literary works for a spare time. There were even jokes that my potential can even grow further if there's those factors around.... more>>

Reincarnated in another world as one of the royals in a fantasy world in a country called The United Covenant of Chevalynthea, it indeed hit a jackpot as I started setting my plans and desire to motion while throwing in my contributions under the different alias.

The best part? The country's real classified politburo and all the living founders of the country approved it as per practice and tradition for a royalty to know the ways of the world itself, and train and get stronger.

While it remained that way ever since in that arrangement, I watched things unfolded with a merging of the worlds phenomena.

"I know what you will say next as befitting of your stature and personality in this scene you and your lackeys created. You're like that particular character trope from the literary works I read. I got many ways to deal with persons such as yourself just as I had done to a certain laughing stock of a disbanded political party from Segliora."

"It's not my fault your former fiancée enjoys my presence and my insights about the roles of royalty in a country and what should be their stage in the world itself, and magic. You got like what? Your engagement broke off and led to this. Speaking of which, your former country and world, you know the terms simp and generic male harem MC, right? If that is so, then you don't really get things here including her very own homeland in this magical fantasy world because this country is a constitutional monarchy state as such the monarch and the royal family must be strong and be there for their subjects. I will not apologize to what I will do next - welcome to your bad ending."

"Another day of a member of nobility being a frog in the well at matters and discrimination because of this country's magic system. Allow me to introduce myself."

"Using religion to fatten your pockets and running away from the act? Allow this errant traveler to let you 'sing'."

"Surprised? That's one of my personal creation spells."

I ponder to myself, "is it wrong for a reincarnated royalty to explore incognito?

Finally! After hundreds of years of suppression and abuse, humanity produced a genius!

---

From 391 Aetil to 'now', humanity has had to live as the servants of the Gods. They had been wrongfully abused and used as slaves with no rights. Just as they were going to give up and forever live at the bottom of the food chain, hunted by every existence and used as sources of entertainment, a genius with extraordinary talent had been born!

Raymond Valtere, or Ray for short, had been born. And only 5 years after his birth, he was sealed away by some Gods who were afraid of his talent.

Sealed in the Void, where nothing exists, Ray trains and learns. In a place where his mind ages yet his body doesn't, he meets the Void and comes to see it as a sort of Guardian that raised him.

Ray reaches the peak of his talent and, eventually, reaches the peak of humanity. Now wielding the power of the Void, he sets out to free humanity from the shackles of the Gods. Though he might find other goals in the future, not everything is certain!

But... Why is he so strange? And why isn't he perfect, as all heroes should be?

"Even the Most Perfect Man will lack something."

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.

Author note: I started to write the story as an experiment to test two things. Writing from the first point of view and writing from the perspective of a woman. In the end, I got carried away because it was so much fun to write and i thought that maybe someone might have just as much fun reading the story, so i decided to upload it.

The story itself is heavily influenced by British folklore like King Arthur, Harry Potter, Roman History, Church History, the neverending story, and a few others but as far as I'm aware there should be no copyright or trademark issues. Still, most might see some parallels because when I started to write the story it was meant to be an exercise. Still, the story plays in a completely independent universe and is not related to any existing story. <<less
