The year is 1393, in The Year of the Three Sisters. In the heart of the Sea of Tyrants, the three northern island nations of Eriu, Dannebrog, and Angevin are settled in a rare time of uneasy peace. But adventure never stops. Especially not for one party of two:
Jacq the Barbarian of Rüzgâr, a bawdy brawler and a feisty fighter.
... more>> Seetha the Sword Dancer of Isyr, a sagacious swashbuckler and a refined rogue.
On the Isle of Angevin, their quest to stop an underground crime ring suddenly takes them on a dive for long lost treasure.

Will these scrappy, intrepid heroines be forgotten to the doom of obscurity, or will their saga rise above the noise and be spoken of by the bards for all eternity?

Incursions, Emergences, and Chaos Events. Anathema, Nightmares, and Aberrations.

These blights have caused untold suffering and destruction for many worlds across the Great Tapestry.

Across these worlds, humanity has developed countless social constructs and [Systems] alike to combat these extradimensional incursions.

But what of the worlds that have never experienced an invasion before?

Worlds that, for all intents and purposes, are stuck in the Silver Age of Magical Girls and Villains? Worlds with no context or dedicated weapons to combat these monsters?

This is the story of a girl who would dream of a brighter tomorrow.

[UPDATE :
I was ridden with some IRL stuff while also taking reinspecting my current workflow, and it didn't fit, especially regarding the pace and ways of how I write. So for that matter, I took a break, and will be posting new novels from these 'Oneshots' I kept on making.
That's that, hope you're not so stiffled with my consequent dissapearance every now and then.]... more>>

[REWRITTEN :
The plot that I envisioned of how the story will go with . . . is a bit murky, too depressing for my liking (and some of you, that's for sure), so I am going about with a less severe yet same foundation the chapters will go on the book,
Titled : Tomboyish Crush on Rehab.]

SYNOPSIS :
There was a patient, bedridden by some unfortunate accident taking place in the past.

It took some time until he finally regain his body to wake up, but his mind is emptier than usual. He doesn't remember most of the things around him.

Alongside him is his dearest friend, who awaits the moment when he can finally stand up and out of his misery.

These are the tales, of when he bonds once more with his treasured ones, and the moments of him trying to take back his past memories, echoing away from his reaches.

(#) Author's Note :
This one will serve as a step for me to experiment with whether I'll succeed in Romance, and with how little there are about ones that has a mix of both Japan and English novels, complimenting the language used and references. It will cater to both male and female readers, as I will balance out both the perspective of ML(Male Lead) and FL(Female Lead), alongside some other casts in the background.

There'll be loads of 'fancy' vocabs, e.g. 'Buffoon', 'Grand', 'Bum'; so forgive me if it's a little confusing for 1st timers.
Ya boy here almost 19 will soon start college, so don't judge me for writing something that may benefits me - experience in writing - in the long run.

What to expect :
Someone dying from Diabetes - Highest priority of putting all the wholesomeness for both leads, don't ask.
Age Progression - Spanning from teenage to adulthood and familyhood, so it won't end when the awaited scene happens.
References - As in things of 2012 with Black Ops 2 and the start of 'memes' with Rage Comic around the year.
Existentialism - Whether to remember, or to not remember. To initiate the struggle, or to not struggle?

What NOT to expect :
Smut - I know it's Ecchi, but this ain't the place to see the two bangs together all day long. 'Bit sad, innit?
Gore - There'll be Tragedy, only about the MC remembering the detail of his broken joints. Not bodies. Not. Bodies.
NTR - Whoever made this kink, I really hope you're either okay or you can fight the whole world if you are.
Gay - Sorry but not sorry for those wanting Boys' Love or Girls' Love, I currently only writes straight couples leads.

Ren Sasahara's found herself enjoying a peaceful, laid-back life in rural Kyushu, whiling away the peak of her youth with her best friend Nina, and a lovingly-tended garden, with only the occasional teasing from her older sister, a teacher prone to bear it all the second she gets in the door, getting under her skin.... more>>

At least, those were most of Ren's problems, until the day Kagura Zaizenji, an heiress with blood far too rich for her sleepy, seaside town, shows up as a transfer student in her class.

Despite the waves she causes amongst Nina and her class, Ren remains fairly detached from the new arrival, but a chance encounter at a vending machine after school piques her interest in more ways than one as Ren realizes the story of this fish-out-of-water leaving the lap of luxury may have more behind it than meets the eye.

Whatever the case, Ren decides to help the clueless new arrival adjust in a town that's certainly too small for the big personality she's brought with her. Ren, however, quickly discovers that she doesn't have all the answers, and maybe has some growing of her own to do far, far beyond the confines of her garden. <<less

Trapped by late exams and snowstorms, college student Misha knows she's about to spend another holiday alone until she encounters an advertisement for the one-time-use Lonely Hearts virtual reality system, which promises an ideal Christmas at the cost of slight memory alterations. Still, it's not like she's got a lot to lose, and a twisted chance at happiness is better than a missed one. Dialing the machine up, where do reality and sensation start and stop, and what's this mysterious, perfect woman suddenly doing at her house when the setting keeps changing on a whim?... more>>

A lesbian/yuri short story in three parts for the holidays—all about finding happiness and making sense of the realm of imagination, which doesn't quite abide by conventional rules.

“I’m going to be the brightest Star in the world!”... more>>

This is the sentiment of every young luminescent—particularly Mindie Tachibana-Callahan. After all, the world is crawling with Shades that bring darkness and wreak havoc wherever they happen to appear. With her ambition aimed high, she fights for her goal of finishing the school’s annual Shade-slaying competition as the undisputed, top-seeded Star. A story like this is practically begging for her to be its protagonist.

At least, that’s how Pike DeSanto sees it.

As Mindie’s best friend of meager presence, Pike graciously accepts his role as a side character in this story. Although, being a luminescent himself often means he still gets caught up in the chaos. Literally.
