In the aftermath of Hoth, the Galactic Civil War has entered a new phase of brutality never seen since the Clone Wars. As the Galaxy... more>> churns with chaos a plot stirs threatening to fracture the Empire from within. In the middle of this plot is Gray Company of the Imperial Army's 22nd "Devil Dogs" Regiment with their commander Captain Eckell Greywillow being the one to come across an item that could change the fate of entire sectors. Caught between his already fracturing faith in the Empire and his dreams of Galatic Peace, it's up to him alone to foil this plot and avert the plans of someone even more despicable than the Emperor. <<less

It is said that the innocent suffer the most in war. While this is true, it is not just the innocent who suffer. Whether it's a soldier who just obeys orders, a general who sends his men to die, or a family who lost everything in the war. Everyone suffers in war. And everyone suffers more if it's a long war with no end in sight.

It's my first time writing. I know that war is a difficult topic to begin with, but it's something I've wanted to write about for a long time. So if you think I should improve or change something, write to me. I will publish the chapters as soon as I write them. So either once a week or once a month. Depending on how it goes for me.

Actually, I have one more job that is a lowly salaryman from my past life on Earth ... but it's kind of pointless to dwell on it since I'm enjoying my new life to the fullest, being doted on by everyone from ministers, nobles, maids and of course, my mother who is a beautiful and majestic queen.

However, however! Aside from all the good things, there is a very ominous feeling here!

Why are there so many soldiers drilling and marching in full gear every day? Mother, look, they are not even elves! What are they doing here? No! Stop doing that to me, I'm already an adult~

Mother, are you saying we are going to war!? It is the orcs to the South or the pesky humans to the East?

Oh, so that's where we are heading .... EHHHHH?!!! <<less

Conrad Cooper was an underachiever. No job. No prospects. Just a natural talent for taking things that weren’t his. But his thieving ways finally caught up with him after a simple cash grab went awry. After plunging a hundred feet into a watery grave, he’s given a second chance in a new world.... more>>

His penchant for stealing landed him a rookie position in the Lurchroot guild’s rookie team of Dungeon Runners. Connor’s new job: go into rival guilds’ dungeons, kill their bosses and make it out with their treasure. However, other guilds won’t make it easy. Traps, monsters and ever-changing dungeon layouts make getting the loot a deadly endeavor.

With the risk of life and limb come rewards beyond anything Conrad could have claimed back on Earth. In Igitah, successful Dungeon Runners are hailed - and paid - like celebrities, in addition to the loot and levels they gain from their adventures.

And that’s why rival guilds are willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that their competitors don’t get that luxury, even through means beyond their dungeon walls.

For once, Conrad’s thieving will be what saves his life. <<less

Growing up, most kids chased dreams, Alex chased wrenches. Thrown into the world of starship mechanics at a very early age by his grizzled mentor, his childhood hummed with the clang of tools and the rhythm of engines. Yet, within this gilded cage, a yearning echoed. He felt trapped, taught to never utter a word about his own race or humanity since he first spoke.... more>>

The question haunted him: what fate befell his race and why this enforced silence? Years of routine work dulled his spirit, starship engines becoming monotonous hums. But amidst the wreckage of a dismantled vessel, a spark flickered. Hidden within the decaying hull, an ancient codex whispered of Eden Prime, humanity’s forgotten cradle. Its holographic pages, shimmering with coded truths, held a past he long sought.

Driven by an insatiable need for answers and the echoes of a forgotten past of his people, Alex could no longer linger within his steel-bound world. Fueled by relentless curiosity, Alex embarked on a journey that promised answers about his past and the fate of civilization.

Will he be able to uncover it? Or do the factions and powers behind the shadows of the past and the galaxy have other plans? His quest for answers has just begun, with the vast frontier galaxy waiting to be explored.

Ittya was born as the heir to the throne and raised in isolation, far removed from magic and the presence of other people. She knew very little about the world and even less about herself, except for the fact that she was a dragon princess, destined to rule over all.... more>>

Her life was simple yet lonely, until one fateful day when her brother, consumed by greed and ambition, plotted and carried out the assassination of their parents.

He framed Ittya for the crime, seizing the throne for himself. Normally, the next step would have been her execution, but for reasons unknown—whether out of jealousy or some other motive—he decided to subject her to a more insidious form of punishment: the Hieshen Altar.

The Hieshen Altar, the most heinous and vile punishment a human could endure. Ittya was condemned to spend her days in a cycle of misery and despair, longing for death, which seemed like a distant dream. Her mind deteriorated, and she teetered on the brink of insanity.

Then, one day, a mysterious figure appeared before her. Radiating an aura of generosity and kindness, they extended a helping hand, promising to rescue her from this wretched existence and aid her in reclaiming her rightful place on the throne.

Would she rise from the depths of her despair and reclaim her rightful place on the throne?

Would she maintain her sanity and resilience against the cruel torments of the altar? <<less

The War of Regression destroyed much of the infrastructure across the world of Archaeodom. Factories and research facilities fell into ruin and centuries of knowledge were lost, both scientific and magical.

The Battle Of Oscarlic, or Oscarlis, is one of the final mass scale battles that took place during the 31st scuffle, or war, between the Empire and Kingdoms Factions, and the Alliance and Zhenshi Factions. The battle itself started two months ago, and the actual field of Oscarlic was in a constant state of back and fourth battle for over two years. High General Osenborn of the Alliance Faction knew that keeping that field was vital in this war, and now that the end of the climax of the war seems to be almost over, and the Alliance and Zhenshi's combined defense in the West has failed, that the Kingdoms Faction and Empire Faction would... more>> not waste such an opportunity to go and gain as much of a foothold as they could.

The belief was that the Alliance Faction has retreated some of their defenses there in order to get ready for the upcoming sieges that were bound to come once winter had passed. However, they were wrong. What occurred was one of the most bloodiest battles, and the second most costly, of the entire war. <<less

The Empire of Tsurina in the East and The Empire of Albine in the West have been warring for a mere two years yet the damage to both sides is palpable. The casualties are increasing, their resources are depleting at an alarming rate, and their people are beginning to lose their faith.

Seeing this, they decide to concede and instead strengthen ties between their nations with an irresistable offer: a royal engagement. It causes an uproar as there is no precedent for neither noble engagements nor royal engagements between the two empires–– they haven't even interacted outside of the war!

For such a political gamble, this is a risk that requires the utmost care and a cunning trick. An equal marriage is what they need, as all things must be, and in order to truly respect this alliance they wish to form. An illegitimate princess of Albine and an illegitimate prince of Tsurina are royally engaged to one another. All is not as it seems with the pair and their secrets run deep. Will they ever learn to trust one another? Will they prove the masses right–– that they are nothing but devils in disguise who seek to destroy the empires–– or will they crumble under the weight of this new responsibility? There is only one thing that we know: this marriage will not be easy.

For my review of 'Zeta Gundam' I wrote a short story detailing what the lives of the poor everyday background pilots must be like - In a war predicated on the fact that one man said another's name; "Sounds like a girl's name" - Leading to the deaths of 1000s.

Since then I've begun writing an original novel, carrying over the characters from here, called 'UnderCurrent'.
These stories can be read without knowledge of UnderCurrent and likewise it can be read without knowledge of this.

Optimally however it may benefit you to read UnderCurrent to have complete context, the following are some words that may not always be in all of the stories should you choose to skip from tale to tale;

Vijaik - A blanket term for mechs made of regular metals. They come in a variety of designs.
Casnel - Specifically refers to any mech made of the rare metal 'Goibniu'. They are exceptionally advanced and powerful machines.
Bhaile and Abhaile - The planets of UnderCurrent's people.
IAFS - 'Independent Alliance of Free States', a rebel faction backed by private corporations, seeking change for the solar-system.
TSU - 'The States Union', ruling body of all controlled space, known for often-times being callous and extreme in method.
Remembrance - A somewhat 'wild-card' faction made up of former rebellion survivors operating from the 'Remembrance' continent.

Captain Aqua of the CK-78 cruiser is a relatively new captain, with her only field experience being a simple recon mission. So imagine her surprise when she is sent into the middle of a massive battlefield with no time to prep. It didn't help that the cruiser she was given wasn't a modern one and, as such, wasn't prepped up to "modern standards". In other words, her ship is unprepared against the modern ships, her ship's guns can barely penetrate even the most basics of modern destroyers, and she has never seen actual combat.... more>>

Luckily, it seems her cruiser has one advantage. Since it hasn't been "prepped", the cruiser still has shells on board made for setting other ships on fire, something none of the newer ships have anymore. Yet, even with this questionably morale weapon at her disposal, Aqua's fear over fire may get in the way of using the weapon to survive...
