Note: Must read to set your expectations
-There will be NO harem and NO echi. This is NOT a horny teen story.(Period)
-Characters here can and may have mental breakdowns and they can or may get themselves into pathetic situations where they just want to cry in the corner. And no, they are not cool edgy characters, they are people with emotions and feelings and can feel hopelessness and pain.
-This is NOT a story about human supremacy and ego. This is a story that avoid as much ego about human supremacy above other creatures.
-This story have humans as A PART of the ecosystem and not rulers of it.
-Humans will soon turn into monsters.
-NO humanoid monsters.
-NO nonsensical fanservice sexy monsters.
-NO human-like monsters intelligence because being intelligent is not a privilege of humans and being intelligent doesn't mean thinking the same way as humans.
-Lastly. NO things like 'Lions are rulers' and things like that. You will never find lions being rulers here or wolves being really strong. This is about an alien ecosystem, not an earthly one. Don't think a pride of lions or a tiger can kill a heavily armoured tentacle abomination. <<less

So I needed to get this out of my brain because sometimes the autism is like that and it's not gonna focus on my ACTUAL... more>> project until I've let it do this one silly thing that it wants to.
Essentially this is a spinoff of Mapleshade's Vengeance because that was just tragic and I liked the idea of exploring how afterlives worked. I wanted to explore the idea of a character finding their way into StarClan, a *nice* afterlife, after they ended up in the Dark Forest first. I realise that later Warriors books *have* said that there can be a court to decide who gets into StarClan but respectfully that's boring and my idea's better.
All characters are original save for Thistleclaw, Whitestorm and Bluestar who only crop up as minor characters, and this story takes place in an original Warriors spinoff world that is detailed more on https://warriors-diversity-roleplay.fandom.com/ <<less

A new consciousness takes in the surrounding room softly illuminated by the growing energies containing within itself.

Author here, I got some bad news for anyone who wants to get into this series. This is not meant to be anything but the flimsiest of hobbies for me to unleash some creative juices. I like to think of stories in my head but I cant write them down quick enough or competently enough to be satisfied as an author. As such there will not be any regular updates to this. Maybe you will get a chapter every week, maybe there will be years between, I dont know.

Furthermore this is just based on taking a concept and running with it. I have no plans for a story arch beyond a few planned encounters and set pieces. If this story somehow actually becomes something I will go back and re-write it with a better vision of what it should be. Take this as the rambling scribbles that they are and nothing more.

In regards to the content warnings I do not intend to write about any hanky panky simply because I am really bad at it but I intend to keep both strong language and gore open simply because I want to be able to add it without feeling restricted and not because I actually intend to aim towards that type of content. <<less

"Time travel." - Definitely_not_a_human, December 16th 2022.
=============
Alright, alright, I know I have unfinished works, but what do you expect from an amateur writer? I mainly write because I have ideas and some just don't match well with each other. Don't worry though, I'm throwing the schedule into the trash, taking it out, traveling to the nearest volcano and tossing it in. Or simply I'll post whenever I want, if you don't understand my fancy wording. (This apply to all of my current works)
=============
Eldry will be a normal girl enjoying her normal life. That will be until a particularly bad fever dream hit her, and as if flexing a never used muscle, well, not as if, she litterally will do that. Her entire body will ache from over exertion, and she will begin to receive more informations from her senses which won't really make her weak, three dimensional mind stay as is. Join her, or don't, on her journey to live a pretty much normal life if you don't count the phasing in and out of temporality and the constant assaults from entities like her. Oh, and also the discovery of why higher dimensional lifeforms have wierd shapes.
=============
All characters and events were came up with on the spot or randomly generated. If any of the characters have the same name as you or said events happen to you then you are having a very interesting life, or boring, depending on how you look at it. <<less

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.

Across the vast emptiness beyond the reach of everything, Rath'na was in the middle of nowhere. Losing the reason to live, it decided to vanish its existence to oblivion, as its ultimate goal had been reached. It was ready to be forgotten. But suddenly...

“AS LONG AS I CAN LIFT A WEAPON, UNTIL MY MIND FINALLY BREAKS, I WILL NEVER STOP KILLING THOSE WHO STAND ALONG MY WAY!” “Every moment, happy or sad, every moment of my life, I shall live to the fullest!” “I’ve seen enough blood. The same, crimson paint that’s been shed in every corner.” “Stop. Please stop it…” “Thank You” “I’m sorry” “I love you” “Stop...” “Leave me alone…”
“Run!” “Run!”

It heard unfamiliar voices in its head, echoed by its entire existence. Upon pondering where these memories came from, Rath'na decided to return to it's former residence, the "Eternal Prison", where countless realities are found.

On the way to the "Eternal Prison", it will hop between countless realities, it will encounter many stories, worlds and universes. Emotions, ideas and the will to live, are just waiting to be discovered again, to find who is behind the voice that's been stuck on its mind, no matter how distant it might be.
