You might think that in the twenty-third century, after having reached the stars and expanded their reach across countless horizons, humanity would have grown past all of their squabbles and primitive greed. Technology has put what was once incomprehensible within the reach of any citizen. Food can be printed as easy as paper was in centuries past with housing nearly as simple, healthcare is as easy as a simple puff from an inhalant or a new body part from the biotanks, and yet corporations still lock it all behind paywalls. ... more>>

This book is just a silly little project to help me with my daily writing goal of putting out 2000 words per day! If you stick around and enjoy it, then I'm so glad!

Be warned, this book is written around a trans woman and her experiences of discovering that fact, and hate won't be tolerated in the comments or anywhere else regarding this. It's a fun story for people to enjoy, not a punching bag.

It has been a millennium since mankind abandoned its home. Corporations have carved up the heavens, and brought humanity to the stars with them to finalize those borders in blood.

When a pilot with no name breaks through a rift to a dying world, he and his experimental fighter-plane become the only things in the way of a horrific army of monsters that is marching to burn down the mystical world tree and kill its keeper as the final symbol of their grim victory.... more>>

What happens when an emotionless killer is transported to another place, when a man who was trained to hunt in the skies above barren ash-lands now becomes the last protector of the perfect garden below instead?

What happens when a soldier with as much blood on his hands as engine grease must find a way to live together with a peaceful incarnation of nature itself — a dryad — in order to save the last sparks of life on her fading world from a series of invasions that never seem to end?
_______________________
The one-thousand year crisis has begun.

The world tree, towering up toward the heavenly skies, is the greatest beacon of resilience and peace that there is. Saturated with deeply set, ancient magical energies, it is the most powerful source of ambient, restorative magic that the dying world has ever known. Guarded solely now by its last pacifistic caretaker, a forest dryad, it seems inevitable that it will soon be destroyed with nobody around who is strong enough to protect it from the steadily approaching danger.

Rising from the shadows, horrific monsters from forgotten eras tear through the world in the steadily growing waves of their invasion, breaking free from their ancient prisons deep below its surface as they rampage and destroy the cities of men, elves, and all the other races of the many continents. Filled with nothing but an intent to kill, the system-manifested hordes march toward the last garden in order to bring about the end of the last era.

As one nation after the other falls, everything seems lost, until fate intervenes and a rift between worlds opens, bringing in the only hope the many nations, the sacred tree, as well as its peace-loving caretaker, have against the endless tide of blood and fangs — a transmigrated war pilot, flying an experimental combat aircraft, the Jagdflugzeug-09 'Kestrel'.

Is this one man enough to stop the monster invasions, which grow stronger and stronger with every subsequent wave? Can the pilot with no name carry the fate of the world upon his wings, or can he only watch from above as the fires of the apocalypse reach up to the sky to consume him as well before the fall of final darkness?

*** NOTES & WARNINGS ***
⚙️ This story contains transgender and non-binary characters as well as nonconventional gender roles. It also contains graphic scenes of sex. If any of this isn't for you, please back away slowly.
⚙️ This story takes place in a steampunk world of my own creation. The year 1937 would usually place it in dieselpunk territory, but this is a place where steam technology is still predominant.
⚙️ The gender-bending tag on this story references psychology changes or awakenings rather than physical gender swapping.
⚙️ For those of you picking this up for the sex, please note you're my kind of people! But also note it will take several chapters to build up to it. It starts in a very straight-laced culture but this will change, dramatically. However, it will take a while, so don't be too disappointed. <<less

"If you are young and don't dream of space, then toil on your soil forever", the legendary Hopkins II once said. And whether you are a rebellious cat or an orphaned human, you dream of jumping between worlds to see the wonders of the galaxy: the space elevators, sunsets on resort worlds, or exotic foods. These dreams usually don't involve run-down ships, strange passengers, being shanghaied, or freshly mutated or meeting old civilisations. The reality is all this and more.
 
A slice-of-life story of two young jump pilots, one cat and the other a human, alternating told in volumes. The first volumes are mostly world-building the action starts in mid-volume 4 (around chapter 37)... more>> so a slow build up. The science is as hard as FTL travel can be, restricting the action.

Ryudo Kelekolio's had a rough past. Taken advantage of then thrown out as soon as he questioned his abusers, he's now back home and re-integrating into society after rehabilitation, learning to be a person again, and picking up new hobbies.

Like Full-Dive Sensory VR.

Grandson of the man who invented full-dive technology *and* its most popular game, Ryudo had an aversion to the technology, but he finds himself grudgingly giving it a try, and stepping his way into a grand virtual conflict as a central character, because of a rider his late grandfather stuck on his biometric data for his first login.
