In a world ruled by Qi cultivation, ancient sects, and unbreakable traditions, five individuals stand at the crossroads of fate. Layla (Meilin) – Once a ruthless war strategist, she is reborn into the crumbling Silver Lotus Sect, struggling to rebuild it without becoming the monster she once was. But as her forbidden Qi corrodes everything she touches, is she saving her people—or becoming something even worse? Atlas Ryland – A merchant, a con artist, a walking headache.

But when his body begins absorbing Qi in ways it shouldn’t, the world starts to notice—and not in a good way. Emery Voss – A genius inventor who believes Qi is obsolete. As he crafts gunpowder weapons and steam-powered engines, Zafira fear that he might become insane. Zafira al-Rahim – A crime lord who rules the underground, she controls information, trade, and people’s darkest secrets. But even she cannot control the madness Emery brings into the world. Master Daokan – A living legend, once unshakable—until he sees Layla’s deadly new Qi and Atlas’ impossible survival. For the first time, he fears the world is changing beyond his control.

The cycle of life is not infinite—except, perhaps, for Elijah. At 122 years old, Elijah lived a long and successful life—until he woke up as someone entirely new. Now, an anomaly in a mysterious kingdom sustained by magic, he faces questions about his place in a world that doesn't defy the laws of nature, but take them to an entirely new level. For over six millennia, this isolated realm of 300,000 citizens has thrived, its survival bound to the magic that nurtures its air, water, and food. Yet, some whisper that a kingdom refusing to expand is doomed to fall. How, then, has this kingdom endured? As Elijah uncovers ancient secrets, dives into treacherous cave systems, and grapples with the fatal flaws of magic, he learns the truth about existence itself—forces that shaped the cosmos. New alliances rise to confront an ancient plague, and the kingdom's delicate balance teeters on the edge of collapse. In this world, the vibrant hues of freedom and potential are mere illusions, like sunlight filtered through stained glass. Elijah must decide whether to shatter the illusion—or embrace it. ———— This novel goes into great detail about the ways of the people and how it will differ from the suspected outside world. What seems like a population of people who do not have much knowledge, show how they found their way by “feeling”, or by anecdotal(personal) evidence.

Elliot had always felt the weight of the world on his shoulders. At sixteen, he couldn’t remember a time when his mind wasn’t a whirlwind of doubts, fears, and dreams too big for the small town he called home. His days were a blur of school corridors filled with unkind whispers and nights of lying awake, staring at the cracks in the ceiling, hoping they would form some sort of map to freedom. Elliot’s yearning wasn’t just for escape from his surroundings, but from the storm raging inside his head. The doctors called it anxiety and depression, but to him, it was a labyrinth—a twisting maze that he couldn’t navigate no matter how hard he tried. And so, one day, he packed a small bag, scribbled a note that said, “I need to find myself,” and stepped onto the first bus out of town. The road stretched endlessly before him, a ribbon of possibility. His journey began without a clear destination, just an aching need to find something—or someone—to soothe the chaos within.

"Baby stay here ok? Mommy will be right back" I whispered to my 3 months old son, as i tried to hid him under the shady part of the willow tree. I made sure that not a single raindrop would dripped on him. "That's the subject" I heard the shout of one of the guards chasing me. "Catch her, don't let her get away" shout another. I immediately wrapped the thick cloth I was holding and acted as if I was holding my child. "Hurry, they are escaping" "Make sure nothing bad will happen to the child" 'I'm sorry baby, mommy will be back, wait for me ok' i pleaded in my mind as my tears kept dripping down my cheek. The pouring rain accompanied my dripping tears Its almost dawn, I need to be fast, my baby will be waiting for me. Unfortunately, they were able to caught up with me too, and I'm only inches away from the cliff. They violently pulled the wrapped cloth away from me. I fought with them but was immediately pushed by one of the guards causing me to fall into the cliff. 'I'm sorry baby, mommy lied' 'Live, you must live' ______________ This story contains kidnapping, for readers who are sensitive, you may skip this story.

**MOSCOW** Raelynn glared at her father, she never imagined he would sell her one day. Even though they've never been that close, she still was his daughter for crying out loud! The old man starred at the floor, avoiding looking at Raelynn and somehow, she felt better if he avoided the glare. It was just yesterday she found out about her marriage with a total stranger whom her father barely knows. That news was like a tim bomb, Raelynn's father had come back that afternoon, declaring the marriage and all she could do was stare, mouth wide open at the man. "You're getting married tomorrow" She could vividly remember those words as they echoed in her mind. "What! Dad, I'm only 19 and not just that, it's fuckin' tomorrow, how on earth is that possible?" She knew her dad to be mean and cold but how the hell was that not a joke? "Believe what you want, I'm giving you an hour to pack your things, we're leaving for Russia" Oops, that was Rodrigo for you, Raelynn couldn't believe her ears but she had to, hence it was her dad. She watched the man set things on his briefcase and it dawned on her her was never joking. She staggered backwards, as tears streamed down her cheeks, frightened at what might become of her. Raelynn was about running off when her dad pulled her to a halt. "Raelynn! Don't act any stupid, your groom is a Mafia and trust me, even I wouldn't hesitate... You know what I mean?" He corked an imaginary gun, pointed it at her forehead and 'boom!' He shot. She wanted to say mean things to this man but that should wait, she needed to see Barry, her lover. Raelynn quickly grabbed her phone, running out of the house. Within few minutes, Raelynn was with Barry at their favorite spot. She dug herself into his arms, he could feel the tension in her body. "Are you Okay?" Barry asked but all Raelynn could do was shake her head. "I'm not, I'm not okay, I'm getting married tomorrow, I'm leaving for Russia, I'm...." Her words were shut by his kiss, she let his lips take over hers. And for some moments, she felt safe, but no! "Tell me it's a joke" Barry pulled from the kiss, "Wake me up from this dream my love, it's already a nightmare" "No" Tears rolled down her cheeks. She held his palm, "It's no dream, Rodrigo has made his choice". "You don't have to live your life for your father! Let's elope, go far away, to a different country, you told me you would love to live at Japan. Let's go there". He sought through her eyes but she barely kept eye contact. "Don't you get it? It's my damn father! He'll kill me, he'll make me suffer dearly. And I'm marrying a Mafia, my life has already been hell since my mom died, I can't risk yours too. Rodrigo will never think twice in killing you" She pulled him to a tight hug. " Just promise me you won't hurt yourself " She whispered amidst the hug, pecked him softly and pulled away. She staggered backwards, "I love you" She looked deep in his eyes but all she could feel was a sharp pain. Turning, Raelynn ran as fast as her legs could carry, she never looked back as she cried her eyes out. And today, she starred at Rodrigo from the alter. Another glance, she scoffed. She wished her mom was alive but... Can't this priest see the indifference? She prayed that the floor open and swallow her. As if her prayer was granted, when the ring was brought forward, she lost consciousness.

I had a supporting role in a modern fantasy. The loyal dog of a villain with an angel’s name, Cheon Sa-yeon, and an unfortunate supporting character who died on his behalf, Han Yi-gyeol. In order to escape from Cheon Sa-yeon and survive, he must use the protagonist, Ha Tae-heon. But Ha Tae-heon, who he thought of as a lifeline, was infinitely indifferent to him. Rather, Cheon Sa-yeon showed interest. But besides that, something strange happened. The events that occurred in the original story had advanced, and the gate and monster levels had risen. Even the people were “different” from the original. The original version I was trying to use was wrong. --- Disclaimer: The content presented here is not authored by me.
