Ling Tian's journey began in the mystical realm of Tenebrous, where he sought to overcome his limitations and reach new heights of power. To achieve this goal, he embarked on a perilous quest to find a legendary artifact. His travels took him across six continents, each with its unique culture and hidden dangers. The continents were: 1. *Aerthys*: A land of ancient forests and whispering winds. 2. *Nyxoria*: A realm of eternal darkness, where the skies raged with perpetual storms. 3. *Elyria*: A continent of breathtaking beauty, with landscapes that shone like the stars. 4. *Khyronia*: A land of scorching deserts and treacherous dunes. 5. *Vylonia*: A realm of mysterious energies, where the air vibrated with ancient power. 6. *Xanthea*: A continent of mist-shrouded mountains and forgotten ruins. Ling Tian ventured into the heart of Xanthea, seeking the artifact that would grant him unimaginable power. As he delved deeper into the continent, he stumbled upon a hidden valley, where a colossal dragon battled against a group of brave cultivators. The dragon's roar shook the earth, and its flames illuminated the darkening sky. Ling Tian watched in awe as the cultivators clashed with the dragon, their movements a blur of speed and power. As he approached the dragon, Ling Tian noticed a glowing egg nestled within the beast's lair. The egg pulsed with an otherworldly energy, drawing Ling Tian closer. Without hesitation, he reached out with his blood, allowing it to fall onto the egg. The moment his blood touched the egg, a contract was forged between Ling Tian and the dragon beast child. The egg began to glow brighter, and Ling Tian felt an surge of energy course through his veins. The dragon, sensing the contract, turned its gaze upon Ling Tian. For a moment, their eyes locked, and Ling Tian felt a deep connection to the majestic creature. The dragon's battle with the cultivators ceased, and it regarded Ling Tian with a newfound sense of respect. With the contract in place, Ling Tian's journey took a dramatic turn. He had become the master of a divine beast, and his path to greatness was forever altered. The fate of Tenebrous hung in the balance, and Ling Tian stood ready to face the challenges that lay ahead.

In a realm where immortality is a curse, survival is a war. Waled von Carstein, an undying lord bound by neither heaven nor hell, rules the shadowed citadel of Nachtspire with cold logic and an iron will. To the living, he is a monster; to his kin, he is the last hope. But when a betrayal shatters the fragile peace between vampires and mortals, Waled must forge alliances with the unlikeliest of allies: black-iron dwarves whose steam-powered war machines defy magic, and rogue high elves torn between loyalty to their corrupt queen and survival against a creeping Chaos. Yet the true enemy lies within. As Waled harvests fallen warriors to build his undead legion, he discovers a chilling truth: Eternal life demands eternal sacrifice. Every soul he resurrects erodes his humanity, and every drop of blood he takes binds him closer to the primal hunger he despises. Now, caught between the fanatical Holy Templars who brand him a devil and the scheming Eternal Queen Ariel who seeks to enslave his kind, Waled faces an impossible choice: Embrace the darkness to save his people, becoming the very tyrant the world fears? Sacrifice his throne to protect a humanity that will never accept him? But when an ancient evil awakens – one that devours both the living and the dead – Waled's war for survival becomes a battle for the soul of the world itself. "You call us parasites," he whispers to the dying paladin at his feet, "yet you bleed the earth dry for gold and glory. Who is the real monster here?"

Senior Server Felix stood at the front of the church, his voice steady and solemn as he greeted the congregation. “Our help is in the name of the Lord,” he intoned. “Who made Heaven and Earth,” the people responded in unison, their voices matching his reverent tone. “Today, we initiate new members into this divine and holy Order,” Felix continued. “Today, we welcome new brethren into the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.” At the back of the church, Louis sat on one of the few single chairs, his posture slightly slouched as his focus remained on a sheet of music in his hands. The title read, "Brightest and Best – Key of A-flat." 'Why didn’t Gramps give me an F or G? A-flat is so difficult, and I only have three days to finish it,' he grumbled silently, his brow furrowing in frustration. But he dared not voice his complaints. He could already imagine his grandfather assigning him even more difficult pieces—F-sharps and endless A-flats—as punishment. From the front of the church, a serene voice called out, “Harry! Step forward!” Louis glanced up, momentarily pulled from his inner musings. His eyes landed on a girl stepping forward from the pews. She had black hair neatly styled in a bun and striking green eyes that seemed to shine with warmth and composure. Dressed in a modest brown dress and black sandals, with a rosary resting gracefully around her neck, she exuded a calm, dignified presence. Her tanned skin and graceful demeanor only added to the aura of reverence surrounding her, befitting an Altar server. 'Sigh,' Louis thought as he brushed a hand through his white hair, his blue eyes softening with a mix of admiration and envy. 'I wonder what it’s like to be an Altar server. They all seem so pure and divine… and powerful.' Just as he returned his attention to his music, a calm, gentlemanly voice spoke beside him. “You could also be an Altar server, if you’re interested.” “Huh?” Louis blurted out, snapping his head to the side. But no one was there. “What in the name of Jesus is going on here?” he muttered, glancing nervously around. “At least you know my name,” the voice replied again, seemingly amused. “What?” Louis whispered, his heart beginning to race. "I'm certain you will be a good server," the voice said, calm yet enigmatic. Louis narrowed his eyes, still searching for its source. "Who are you?" "I have many personalities. I have many names," the voice replied with an air of mystery. "It’s your choice which one you accept." "You’re not making any sense," Louis muttered, growing more unsettled. "Blessed are those who have not seen but believed…" Before Louis could respond, his vision blurred, and the world around him seemed to melt away. He jolted awake, gasping for air. His hands clutched the crumpled sheet of music, its corners bent from his restless grip. His head teetered precariously over the edge of his bed, a faint ache in his neck reminding him of the awkward position he’d been in. "Holy Mother of Jesus!" he exclaimed as he lost his balance, tumbling off the bed in a heap of blankets and scattered papers.

Why am I here...where there was no sun. My vision was limited...but I felt the darkness around me. I raised my hand...I possessed a transparent gray form...strange?... And that was all. I felt nothing...no, rather, all I felt was emptiness. And there was nothing for me except my eyes. I rose from my place and began to walk...alone...without direction. The things my eyes saw held little meaning. The things my eyes did not see ceased to exist. And so... I walked, and walked, and walked...until I felt something - disappointment. Strange..? I continued walking in the empty icy world, unaffected by its harshness...until I remembered something - my disappointment.

The skies had not always been so dark. The winds had not always howled with such ferocity, nor had the land known the curse of endless war. Yet on the day Varek was born, the heavens tore open as though they sought to swallow the world in flames. A tempest unlike any seen in centuries ravaged the land—a fury of lightning, rain, and earth-shattering winds, heralding the arrival of something... something that the old gods themselves feared. In the time before his birth, the seers had whispered of it, their eyes clouded with dread. The Chosen One—the Stormborn—would come, they said, carrying a blade forged in fire, one that would either bring salvation or doom. It was written in the stars, and no power in the world could change that. The prophecy spoke of the one who would stand against the tide of darkness and the coming of the Raven King, but the price of this power would be great. And so it was that when Varek was born, the winds howled, and the earth trembled, for the mark of ruin had been sealed upon him. The world wept that night, for no child should ever bear such a burden. Yet Varek did not weep. He knew not the weight of the world at that moment. But in the days that followed, the cost of his existence would become clear. The wolves of the north took him in after his mother’s death—a woman who had given her life to bring him into the world. His father—once a powerful warlord—was slain by those who had sworn to protect him. And so Varek was left to the wilderness, where the wolves raised him. They did not care for prophecy, fate, or the gods. They cared only for survival. Varek grew up wild, untamed, bound to the land, the forests, and the creatures who roamed them. His white hair—a mark of his birthright—stood out against the shadows of the wilderness, the color of frost and storm. He learned to hunt, to fight, and to survive in the harshest of conditions. But all the while, something inside him grew, something ancient and restless. The blade of his destiny, forged in the stars, had already begun to take shape. And it would not be denied.

Why do people seek power? the throne might look omnipotent from afar but she knows the truth. The throne rest upon a house of cards ready to tumble at the slightest nudge.
