Savagery

You can rebuild a world, or you can survive it. But what if you were cursed to do both? Kian Vale died buried under steel and fire — a brilliant young engineer crushed by the collapse he failed to prevent. But death wasn't the end. He awakens in a broken realm where magic has replaced physics, dungeons tear through the earth, and kingdoms cling to survival in a shattered world. And in his soul, not one, but two impossible Systems awaken: • The Architect Codex — a builder's power, made to shape, defend, and command civilization. • The Predation Protocol — a monster's hunger, made to kill, consume, and evolve. These systems were never meant to coexist — and the world knows it. Hunted by kingdoms, stalked by dungeon lords, and rejected by both sides of the conflict, Kian walks the Ashlands not as a hero or king — but as an anomaly. To survive, he'll have to carve his place using blueprints and blood, logic and savagery. He’ll build cities, tear down empires, and face creatures born from nightmares — all while slowly unraveling the truth of what shattered the world in the first place. He wasn’t chosen. But he’s building a future anyway. This time, he won’t let it fall.

In the year 3000, the Earth shattered and it was torn open by a rift between realms that unleashed ancient beasts, magical chaos, and apocalyptic storms. Civilization crumbled, giving rise to a brutal new law: Tame or be Torn Apart. Beast Tamers, bonded to mutated and other creatures now rule what remains of the world through strength, savagery, and guild-driven power. Kelvin, a scavenger scraping by in the ruins, lives in the shadow of these warlords until he unearths Xerion, the End-Tyrant, a legendary primordial beast sealed beneath the earth. Bound by a forgotten bloodline and a cursed contract, Kelvin inherits the Sigil of the Overlord, thrusting him into a war-torn world where survival is no longer enough. He was hunted by guilds, worshipped by outcasts, and pursued by enemies both human and monstrous, Kelvin must rise from nothing to either unite or destroy what’s left of civilization. As forbidden powers awaken and ancient truths unravel, one man and his beast stand poised to reshape the fate of a world teetering on the edge of annihilation.

Nyxia, a battle-hardened night elf Huntress, was once revered as a living legend—bonded to the spectral spirit beast Loque’nahak and feared across the wilds for her unmatched prowess. But when the sacred temple she once protected fell to corruption, and her lover Ves’Sariel became a void-touched goddess worshipped by twisted remnants of her people, Nyxia vanished into the shadows—riddled with guilt, grief, and rage. Years later, fate drags her from hiding when a void-born threat resurfaces, mutating the land and infecting what little hope remains. Scarred and furious, Nyxia is forced to confront her past: the ruins of her sacred temple, night elves twisted into grotesque worshippers, and a soul-shattering reunion with Ves’Sariel, who is no longer wholly herself. Accompanied by Loque’nahak—fierce, loyal, and deeply bonded—Nyxia claws her way through blood-drenched ambushes, monstrous rot dragons, and heart-wrenching memories. But healing comes in unexpected places. At a hidden sanctuary, she reunites with Perseus, a Lightforged Draenei and dear friend thought lost to time. As Nyxia spirals between rage and ruin, Perseus helps her rediscover pieces of herself long buried under pain. Saga of the Ember Veil is a visceral and emotional dark fantasy tale of love twisted by the void, the savagery of survival, and the flickers of light that remain in even the most shattered hearts. It’s a story of healing, wild magic, and what it truly means to come home—bloody, broken, but not alone.

In Victorian London, respectable Dr. Jekyll creates a transformative potion that unleashes his hidden, malevolent alter ego—Mr. Hyde. As the boundaries between civilized virtue and unbridled savagery blur, the doctor struggles under the weight of his unleashed darker desires. This chilling tale of duality and inner conflict exposes the dangerous allure of our hidden impulses, inviting readers to question whether one can ever truly separate the light from the dark within. by Copilot (I didn't want to copy it from WikiPedia)

The native planet where a multitude of people suffering from the consequences of overpopulation and forceful servitude on Earth migrated to Crystallia via gravitational slipstream between planets. It was believed that such a feat was impossible and that a normal human being would not be able to survive such an ordeal, but then one of the most unpredictable physical phenomena in the universe besides the power of God was gravity. The galaxy collision occurred during the era of the slave trade when the supersized galaxy known as Redromida collided with the Milky Way. Naturally, none of the elements touched as the scientists had suggested, but there were phenomenons that they failed to predict. One such occurrence was the impact of the planet Crystallia disturbing the orbit of the Earth. The result of such a proximity between Crystallia, which happened to be as large as the planet Jupiter and Earth was astronomical. The resulting earthquakes and disasters shattered the very concept of living for man, and then the gravitational pathways between the planets, which lasted for more than 2 and a half years, were established. The migration began after several who had made the journey by accident had returned with glad tidings of fertile land, greener pastures, and a safe heaven from the power of the Aro and other European slave traders. The migration lasted until the gravitational slipstream ended; by then, the slave traders had discovered the path, but by the time they made plans to pursue the merchandise, the gravitational link between Earth and Crystallia had come to an end. The majority of people who made the journey were from parts of West Africa, the central parts of Asia, the Red Indians of North America and a few from the northern parts of South America. They had barely settled into their new home when the planets natural immune system was triggered, the Ẹbọras emerged intending to end the branch of humanity that had the gall to make this planet their home. The struggle for survival began; man was able to harness the crystal mined from the planet to forge an energy source, they were able to till the land to produce food, and they built large walls to shelter themselves from the Ẹbọra. As man thrived, man also adapted to this new planet; exposure to this new crystal energy and air, which was not oxygen but breathable, caused a change in man’s biological constitution. The next generation had Evolved into something else. Thus, the story begins. Adewale was killed on the streets of modern-day Lagos in the country called Nigeria; for some reason, God decided that Adewale didn’t deserve death and reincarnated him in this new world called Crystallia. He is forced to grow up quickly because of the sad state of the society he was born into, a society where the rich prey upon the poor using them as stepping stones in achieving their selfish ambitions. As a child, Adewale was forcefully recruited into the military force of the Lagos Shelter, where he was forced to use his useless ability to pave a path towards success. Through the hardship of this world, he managed to gather trusted allies and embarked on a quest of his own to take control of the Lagos shelter and end corruption. What he didn’t count on was the fact that the heart of the greedy thinks only of staying the hunger of their greed and that greed will lead to war, savagery and destruction. Thus the exciting story of Adewale begins, with his closest companion that named itself Symbiot.

In the bustling modern metropolis, there exists a hidden world unknown to most—vampires are not merely the terrifying creatures of legend. They live quietly in the shadows of human society, indistinguishable from ordinary people yet fundamentally different. Our protagonist, Adrian Light, is one such vampire with a unique identity. He was not born from an ancient curse but was transformed due to an accident, forever caught between the worlds of humans and vampires.

The story about Princess Moonlight that comes to earth! Rembulan or Lunaria, she's the supreme queen ruler of the lunar planet. Her dominion stretched across all kingdoms of the moon, including the mighty Arkei Kingdom—the greatest and strongest of the celestial realms, commanded by her will alone. Lunaria was a sacred sovereign, revered by kings and commonfolk alike, for her divine blessings allowed their civilizations to thrive. She was the immortal embodiment, destined never to perish… unless she unleashed her greatest power. In the year 922 of Lunarism (2100 AD on Earth), war ravaged the moon's kingdoms. Chaos reigned. Everything lay in ruins, kings were slaughtered, and the scramble for power blinded all to reason. Overwhelmed by grief and compassion, Lunaria chose to relinquish that power to shield her people from the savagery of power-hungry warriors and tyrants. She bore this burden alone, for she was a princess of purity and grace, one who abhorred the radicals clawing at her realm's foundations. When she activated her primordial force, her own kingdom—the Moonlight Kingdom—became a sanctuary, the sole survivor of the cataclysm, shielded by an ethereal barrier born of her sacrifice. Yet, in the aftermath, stripped of her power and vulnerable, Lunaria was sent to Earth by Ambalan, her elder brother, who vowed to continue safeguarding their people. Ambalan could not bear to see his sister perish, especially now that she no longer possessed the strength to shield even herself. Thus, the moon's luminous queen fell to the mortal world—a radiant soul exiled, her legacy etched in starlight and sorrow. Yogy 3 February 2025®

"Jill!" Sheri whispered. Jill continues to give Sheri grief. Though, in all honesty Jill didn't care, nor did she have room to judge. Jill has done what Sheri is about to do once or twice. Maybe even three times by the time she's done with Anthony. Who knows what his status is? Don't care... But Jill could shamelessly say this, she's never blatantly seen a man's wife and still brazenly flirt with their husband. Sheri was on a whole new level of savagery, and Jill wasn't letting her best friend off the hook so easily. Jill thought to herself, the next time Sheri tries to act all innocent and poise to judge me, imma rub the dirt all up in her face. She continues to push Sheri’s buttons till she gets up to leave and go to the bathroom. Jill was getting ready to tell her to use the gel when unexpectedly, Sheri collides into the Governor. They were a whole tangled mess, Jill practically had to pull them apart before his wife came. The Governor was grateful for her intervention because even he realized he wasn't focused. Upon meeting the governor's wife, Jill was 100% sure, she did not like her. This self-important, condescending chick, made Jill simply want to backhand her. Her whole attitude was trash. She looked down at Sheri and Jill the whole time with fake greetings of kindness. But Jill matched her energy. Like b*tch, your not about to run over me. But Sheri... Practically became her yes girl. And Jill had to fall in line because it wasn't her fight. *** After the awful encounter with Monica, the Governor's wife, Jill got to work on making sure Sheri had a more prominent presence. The girls went to the bathroom, and Jill opened every stall to make sure no one was around. "What was that?!" Jill yelled. "I know right?! Absolute b*tch!" Sheri added. Jill wanted to smack Sheri. "No! You!" Sheri was confused. "You're not focused! When she came up to us all stank, you had no fight in you. You acted like a docile little girl. She said jump and you went 'how high?' Even I had to fall in line." Jill was so infuriated. "Oh...". Sheri said in recollection. "Listen that right there was a freebie. Monica is not about to think that's how things are gonna be moving forward." Jill declares. Sheri was silent but signaled she understood Jill continued as she paced the spacious restroom. "She's the one that had things she wanted to discuss with you, not the other way around. You should of let Monica know what day YOU were available instead of going along with what she choose!" "I know I just got nervous..." Sheri put her hand to her forehead. "Well that needs to be out of your system now that we have a vague idea of what she's about. When we go to the Governor's house, don't act all impressed, as if you've never been in a place like that before, and whatever she asks of you, tell her you need time to deliberate. She's not getting her answer right away." Jill looked at Sheri sternly. "You're right! I'm sorry!... I guess I felt bad about my behavior with her husband that I kind of submitted to her." Sheri admitted. "So are you gonna feel bad about the Governor's behavior too?!" Jill snapped "Takes two to tangle, And y'all was entangled!" "Jill... I don't know if I can be the type of woman that can mess with a married man..." Sheri lowered her head. Well what is she trynna say about me! Jill thought. *** Hey everyone, thank you for your interest in my book, this is my first time writing a story. Hope you enjoyed this excerpt.

In a world where the gods have been forgotten, human savagery would have reigned supreme, if not for a single family. Herding together the stranded humans with their strength, the royal family of Krimori forged a nation with the sole purpose of destroying the soul beast that roamed free after the departure of the gods. Centuries later, many more kingdoms have risen, fighting under the same banner to vanquish the horrors that sought to devour them.

Ivan, a civil engineering student in Russia, is on the brink of completing his degree when fate takes an unexpected turn. Whisked away to 20th-century America, Ivan finds himself in a world that seems similar but reveals itself to be wildly different. Here, beneath the bustling cities landscapes, lies a hidden society of wizards, one where Ivan discovers he, too, holds untapped magical abilities. Yet the world of wizards is nothing like the realm of reason and progress he’s familiar with. Instead of enlightenment, Ivan finds a society trapped in old, brutal ways, a place where magical power rules, and a fierce struggle for dominance reigns. It’s a place where wizards, like predators in the jungle, seek to overpower and devour one another, locked in cycles of rivalry and survival. As Ivan navigates this new reality, he must learn to wield his powers and survive in a magical world ruled by raw ambition and treacherous alliances. With the skills of a civil engineer and the instincts of a novice wizard, he sets out to build his own place in this concrete jungle, where the line between civilization and savagery blurs in unexpected ways.

In the blink of an eye, the world as we knew it changed forever. It wasn’t a plague, nor an alien invasion from outer space. Instead, Earth itself revolted against it’s inhabitants. The axis shifted, and suddenly, we were hurtling away from the sun, condemned to a fate of eternal winter. As days turned to weeks, and weeks turned to months, chaos ensued. Natural disasters ravaged the lands, tearing apart cities and communities. The once bustling streets were now desolate, covered in layers of frost and despair. With each passing day, the temperature plummeted freezing everything in its path. Electricity became a luxury of the past, leaving us to fend for ourselves in the darkness. Food and resources dwindled, forcing humanity into a primal struggle for survival. The rules of society crumbled, replaced by the law of the fittest. Amidst this bleak landscape, our protagonist emerged a lone wandering fighter fighting against the elements and the savagery of mankind. With each step he faced the relentless cold, the ferocious beasts displaced by shifting climates, and the ever-present threat of encountering fellow survivors driven to madness by desperation.

[Mature Content] The body of a mermaid is a vault of treasures. Their tears formed the most splendid of pearls, their exquisite blood a euphoric drug for vampires, their luscious hair woven into the finest of silk, and their tender meat sought after by werewolves more than Heaven’s ambrosia. The creatures of night mingled within human society, fleeced in the wool of aristocracy, veiled in their portrayed innocence and nobility, their savagery continued to predate on the weak and powerless.

Eldritches, Abominable creatures that originated from the deepest depths of the earth, they were dark creatures that hid and lurked under the cover of night searching for prey, they devoured anything who dared to roam the world under the light of the moon, they would slowly creep towards you and sneakily spread their long, noxious, tentacles around you and strangle you as they slowly moved you toward their maw, then they'd pull their tentacles back and little ridges on them would tear your body apart and you would fall into deep into the abyss that was their large, miasmic maw. Humanity prayed to their gods for millennia yet their gods had not answered, not until one day, when mankind was at the brink of extinction did they finally receive their blessings. From Zeus, The Authority Of The King From Poseidon, The Will Of The Creator From Adonis, The Soul Of Rebirth From Apollo, The Spark Of Liberation From Heaphestus, The Seal Of Confinement From Hercules, The Emergence Of Unembellished Power From Hestia, The Seed Of The Hearth From Artemis, The Bestial Sapien From Hecate, The Soul Of Mysticy From Hades, The Woke Of The Soul From Athena, The Spirit Of Conquest From Ares, The Body Of Savagery These 12 blessings were the cornerstones of the Eldritch Slayer path, a path forged by the hands of both mortal and divine, with these, humanity would be able to combat their foe, however, this was many many years ago, nowadays, Eldritch were the least of problems. --------------------------------------------- "Trixion, from behind you!!" A deafening scream resounded through the continent of war like the clap of thunder, though the noise did little to put a stop to the endless bloodshed occurring on the crimson continent. The one who had been alerted of an incoming attack, Trixion tried to look back at the perpetrator of said attack however the attack had already reached him and he was unable to react to it anyway. "You were a worthy opponent, Krimson Khaos...." To be a worthy opponent to the Scaled Prince, The Golden Dragon, of the Empyreans was truly commendable, yet to Trixion who looked down at the scaly arm piercing through his torso it seemed like more of an insult, an insult that brought him rage. Trixion attempted to move however the poison within his body wouldn't let him, after all, what led to him managing to get pierced like this. As Trixion slowly passed he started to accumulate his energy within his body, within a second his body was full to the brim with energy, soon he would burst into a bunch of blood pieces, and burst he did. "W-what are you doing?!?!" The Scaled prince hastily removed his arm and attempted to dash back but it had already been done. Trixion busted into hundreds of little pieces each piece of his body was supercharged with energy and thus was incredibly durable, it would pierce through many Empyreans and go undamaged, even more, he made it so that when it came in contact with anything it would burst even more it was like a bomb with shrapnels that that acted like a bomb. That act had killed nearly 10 million Empyreans and from then on out he was known as a hero to the whole world, he was someone who even in his final moments managed to bring the enemy to their knees. They were correct however it was not in his final moments it was in the final moments before the end that led to his new beginning. However, Trixion wasn't the only one who would begin once again, for Dendracove, The heir to the Driconite Empyreans would accompany him in his journey, as this was the story of both the Krimson Khaos, The Lord Of Strife, And The Golden Dragon, The Scaled Prince Of The Empyreans.

Beneath the silvery light of the moon, the bodies of the slain werewolves lay sprawled across the ground. Blood stained the grass, their lifeless forms a reminder of the carnage that had transpired.

The technology we know of has completely disappeared only few remnants of the past remain in the deepest ruins. Civilization has reached a medieval age in which although grimy isn’t completely filthy. Some archaic yet modern concepts still exist. People throughout the city-states fear the unknown. The few nomads and vagabonds who have somewhat adapted to the changed world have forgotten their ways in order to become accepted.

The new faiths that crept into city-states heathenize and hunt down the people who wield arcane energy. Within the vagabonds and nomads who flock to the city-states seeking a safer life, few gifted recluses must masquerade themselves to avoid prosecution. A young girl born from a nomadic clan must rise from nothing to become one who can overcome all. Protecting those who she cherishes against prosecution for their mystic abilities. Seeking to explore the world and find foreign lands. (Note : Currently Releasing 3+ Chapters a Day)
