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?

This is a story I’ve started writing recently so I thought, why not post it here, right?... more>>

It’s about a boy who gets transported to a fantasy world with his friend (Super Original). But I just want to address that I’m not thinking about making a harem, falling into a dungeon or an op mc (at least not unreasonably op) story. I’m trying to be a bit different so this isn’t the only thing to the story. I already have an ending in mind but don’t be afraid to point out mistakes and give me tips about how the story should proceed. If I like your idea I might take it into the story.

It will be pretty gore and dark. But not in an overwhelming way. But more like not being afraid to depict violence. I’m not going to make a slice of life.

I’ll come out with a better description when I know what will happen xD <<less

A world parallel to our own; a deceivingly average man; a kingdom of corrupt lords and demons. Given a second chance at life, a man reborn and renamed as Ren awakens to find himself lost and alone in this new world, called by those who reside there Valentia. But a chance meeting with a beautiful vampire noblewoman and some strange ideas carried over from his home may throw what little balance this world has into a spin. As the kingdom begins to show its cracks, Ren, the noblewoman, her sister, and many others push forward to either find a path to glory - or to be consumed by the ensuing darkness.... more>>

Will Ren be able to find a new home among these new people? Or will he fall through its many cracks? This is a tale of love, war, hope, and revolution.

It's not that Darren Laneth is different, just that he... thinks differently than other people. Because they are just that, other people. Two different groups, a level of mental separation. And yet, because of a little separation, he doesn't know what to do with his life.

...

What constitutes as 'human'?

Is it how we act? How society views us? The very makeup of our bodies? This is not what he sees. What he sees is a question, a question that he's been searching the answer to his entire life, elusive and yet all around him. It is what defines a human, what they always strive for, no matter the situation. When given the ability to search for the answer, the only thing left is to take it. The story of Darren, who loses the thing that matters the most to him and searches ever harder to the answer.

Tell me,

What is happiness?

Hey, tried something new for this competition! Wanted a less fleshed out beginning and more understanding as you advanced. Thank you for the support, and I hope you enjoy! Also, putting in some tags, even though I might not use them. This story will have immoral things, so for those looking for a safe, filtered story don't search here. Also putting the harem tag, because I don't know, maybe? It's not completed, it's a WIP!

...What? You want me to go on an adventure or something? Build a harem? Become an ashen specter? None of those activities are economically productive! Well, technically, if you kill a dragon and sell its materials, that makes you a "producer" and— But I digress! The point is, there's no way to enjoy a fantasy life if the nobles hog all the resources and technology is at the point where "flush" and "toilet" would never end up in the same sentence.

Suck it Rockefeller, Lipton, Rothschild, and Krupp: you’ll never get the chance to industrialize a fantasy world! Glory to Adam Smith!

—Author’s Note:

As a voracious reader of the fantasy genre, I’ve found a sort of unfilled niche for economic matters. No, not microeconomics like Spice and Wolf. Macroeconomics. Banking and government policies and the like. Most of the time you just see the paperwork, but never the details. Perhaps they aren’t touched upon for a reason, but I guess we’ll see.

Also, this story’s progression is rather slow with long-ish chapters, so it’ll read like a slice of life fantasy story a good bit of the way and will probably extend to during when the economics hit too, or so’s the plan. Oh, and this is my first novel so… please treat me nicely!

“Whoever marries the princess will become emperor.” A twist of fate brought them together. ... more>>

Born a curse, she was cast away from the royal family. But when the kingdom needed an alliance with the Northern barbarians, she was the one to marry.

As the second son, he had no right to become heir. Yet in the face of war and politics, he was always the first to fight for the country.

To her, he was a barbarian. To him, she was a pawn. But under the guise of the prophecy, they pretended to be the most affectionate couple. In front of others, they were the ever-flirting Prince and Princess Consort of Jin. But behind closed doors, they plotted for their own means.

Was it really all no more than an act? Or was there a bit of truth to their fabricated devotion?

They were unwilling puppets, each trying to break free from the invisible strings of fate. Only, when the stage finally fell, it was to chaos. In the end, she no longer knew if her tears were for him or the irony of it all.

Excerpt:

He finally stopped in front of me.

“Can I trust you?”

Subconsciously, something inside me willed me to nod. Perhaps it was the knowledge that I was to be bound to him until death. Or maybe it was the awareness of how this marriage was much more than a simple union between two people.

He moved slowly, waiting for another nod of my approval before closing the gap further.

“You’re a smart one, somehow seeing through most of my guises.” He reached out and gently caressed my cheeks. “True love doesn’t exist in the royal family, but it seems as if we are the perfect match for partnership.”

He leaned in as if to kiss me, instead stopping short at eye level.

“Help me put on my act.”

Alistair finds little wrong with himself, that's not considering he somehow was the last living being to have taken part in a battle to decide the fate of the Human world.

He remembers walking shoulder to shoulder with his brothers in arms, being showered in the viscera of his closest friends.

He also remembers being stabbed by a twelve foot monstrosity as it picked him up with its sharpened blade of a hand, relishing his stunned expression and the soon to be blossoming of pain as it brought him closer to its putrid mouth.

And yet, here he stood in a silent battlefield littered with bodies for acres of land.

What the hell was he supposed to do now?

And equally important, what the hell was he supposed to do with this orb of golden light?! <<less

Will they have the heart to struggle and fight for the right thing?

...

Sarah looked at the bodies beside her. Both had glitters in their eyes. She let out an ivory grin and peered upward. They felt alone, sandwiched by the virgin earth and the vast heavens. Silence accompanied them, except for the bards of bugs. The grasses tickled their backs and their smiles blossomed like flowers. Three pairs of arms reached out to the starry horizon.

This is their journey.
