Northern Sorserer

In a realm shrouded by relentless mist and ancient curses, Hollowveil Village stands as a spectral monument to forgotten horrors. At the Northern Gate, a ghostly monk—his face hidden behind tattered bandages, his form suspended in eerie blue energy—haunts the threshold with a chilling, broken whistling reminiscent of a lullaby gone horribly wrong. When the village’s night is pierced by the brutal massacre of its soldiers—a scene of severed heads, blood-soaked uniforms, and erratic, mind-controlled villagers—the supernatural terror begins to bleed into every corner of this cursed land. Meanwhile, at Bastionspire Fortress, the story shifts to the rigorous training grounds where promising warriors such as Duke, Drex, Jack, Touka, and Samaira push themselves to the brink. Here, raw ambition and the mysterious power of Kendra Energy collide in explosive combat—each punch and parry charged with otherworldly force and the promise of latent potential. Their gritty battles, filled with raw dialogue and hard-fought victories, build up not only their skills but also the mounting tension of an impending mission. As whispers of disappearances and long-forgotten tragedies surface, a devastating assignment is announced: to investigate Hollowveil Village—a place rumored to be cursed ever since a natural disaster claimed hundreds of lives centuries ago. In the midst of this, sinister figures emerge: masked assassins led by the corrupt and calculating Boss Dango, whose oily charm masks a ruthless hunger for profit and power. These operatives, working from the shadows, orchestrate a twisted mining operation deep within cavernous, abandoned passages beneath the village—a dark enterprise that hints at a larger conspiracy and forces the characters into a confrontation with forces beyond mortal control. Haunted by unspeakable rituals, the persistent echo of a monk’s whistle, and the tragic survival of men like Rhett—who claws himself from the grave to warn his comrades—the narrative weaves together elements of high-octane martial prowess, horror, and supernatural mystery. As both the disciplined soldiers and the enslaved villagers find themselves caught in a cycle of death, betrayal, and occult manipulation, every step toward uncovering Hollowveil’s secrets carries the weight of destiny and despair. “BLOOD IN THE FOG: THE WHISTLER OF HOLLOWVEIL” is a relentless journey through a world where courage battles corruption, ancient curses resurface, and the dead never truly rest. Every whispered lullaby hides a scream; every flash of Kendra energy is a spark of hope amid inevitable darkness.

In a single moment, he had lost everything he possessed. His father had disowned him; he had lost his title as prince, and the nobles he had considered his friends had turned their backs on him. Finally, he had been exiled. And it was all because of the "Otherworldly Shopping System." Still, no one, including Luke, could understand the value of this ability. As hope faded from his heart, it reappeared in the farthest northern region of the Empire, in a freezing cold area. 10,000 litres of water to irrigate the land? Well, you can get it for just three gold pieces. Perhaps he should establish a new farm? 100 high-quality cows for just 200 gold. Perhaps he wishes to establish a clothing workshop? Building a ready-made structure would only cost 500 gold. This is his opportunity, the opportunity of Luke, the Light of the Empire. An abandonment worth a world.

Alpha King Thorne Valen reigns over the Northern Territories with brutal strength and an ice-cold heart. Cursed by the Moon Goddess to never love, he’s built his throne on blood and silence. Until her. Riven, a nameless slave with silver eyes and a broken past, was never meant to survive. Raised in chains, stripped of identity, she trusts no one. She doesn’t speak. She doesn’t dream. And she certainly doesn’t believe in mates. But when she’s dragged before the Alpha King, everything changes. One glance. One touch. And the bond roars to life. He calls her mine. He frees her from chains—but binds her to his throne. He bows to no one... except her. As desire sparks and secrets unravel, Riven discovers a dangerous truth: she is more than just his mate. She may be the key to breaking his curse... and the downfall of his entire kingdom. But will love be enough to heal a broken king? Or will their bond destroy them both?

Up north, there’s nothing but snow, emptiness, and a silence that’s lasted fifteen thousand years. Up north, there’s nothing but death… and ancient beings that never died off because they refuse to. Just sittin’ there, sprawled across the ruins of a kingdom that once thrived long, long ago. And even after all that time, even though the world’s moved on and everyone’s forgotten… they still whisper about him that tyrant they called the Fallen Angel, the one locked away in the frost of the North, frozen stiff beneath his pitiful armour. But now… He’s waking up again. Back on his feet. Got no clue who he is—or what he once was. And so, he walks the same path he walked before. Right over the bones of millions… bones that were once lives, blood, and tragedy. Because now his will is his own again. *"Chapter updates every Thursday and Monday"* Yes, here is very important.

This story is historical fiction with a touch of magic. Viking raids began in the late 8th century, particularly in the Western Isles and the Northern Isles of what is now Scotland and with attacks on monasteries and coastal towns in what is now Ireland. This story follows Deirdre O Cleirigh, a young girl in the idyllic village of Ulster, who dreams of adventure and heroism beyond her modest upbringing. Growing up in a land threatened by Viking invaders, her childhood is shaped by tales of courage and resilience passed down through generations.

As the siege intensifies, she gathers a coalition of warriors and citizens, inspiring them with her unwavering resolve and leadership.

This is her story.

In the heart of Central Asia, where empires rise and fall like the shifting sands, a warrior emerges who will shape history with his sword, his strategy, and his unwavering faith. Sultan Mahmud of Ghazni—a name that would echo across centuries as both a conqueror and a patron of culture—sets out on a relentless campaign to expand his empire, challenge the mightiest rulers, and carve his place among history’s greatest kings. Mahmud, the eldest son of Sabuktigin, inherits not just his father’s kingdom but also his unyielding ambition. Born into the rugged lands of Ghazni, he learns early that power is not given; it is seized through blood, battle, and sheer will. But with great power comes great enemies—both within his court and beyond the frontiers of his realm. The story of The Iron Falcon is one of war, betrayal, loyalty, and a vision greater than one man’s thirst for conquest. The Rise of a Conqueror From the moment Mahmud ascends the throne, he faces opposition from his own family. His brother, Ismail, backed by courtly conspirators, attempts to claim the crown, igniting a bitter power struggle. But Mahmud is no ordinary ruler—his mind is as sharp as his sword. Through clever alliances and ruthless military tactics, he secures his place as the unchallenged Sultan of the Ghaznavid Empire. Yet, this victory is merely the beginning. Determined to extend his dominion, Mahmud sets his eyes on the rich lands of India, where the Hindu Shahi kings rule with immense wealth and influence. His ambition is not just territorial; he believes he has a divine mission—to spread the glory of his empire, establish Islamic governance, and secure untold treasures to strengthen his rule. The Battles That Shaped an Empire With his most trusted general, Malik Ayaz, at his side, Mahmud launches a series of daring military campaigns. His army, a formidable force of cavalry, archers, and fearless warriors, storms the strongholds of Northern India, clashing with the legendary Raja Jayapala in the Battle of Peshawar (1001 AD). The fierce resistance of the Hindu Shahi kings tests Mahmud’s strength, but his brilliant tactics and relentless pursuit of victory prove overwhelming. Yet, conquest is never simple. As Mahmud advances deeper into the subcontinent, he encounters the resilience of Raja Anandapala, who unites rival kings in a desperate bid to repel the Ghaznavid forces. The ensuing battles are fierce, with betrayals, shifting alliances, and moments of brutal warfare that define the era. Through it all, Mahmud remains steadfast—an iron falcon soaring above the battlefield, always striking with precision and power. Betrayal, Glory, and the Clash of Civilizations While Mahmud’s sword carves empires, his mind thirsts for knowledge. Unlike mere warlords, he is a patron of scholars, poets, and architects. He invites the brilliant Al-Biruni, a polymath whose wisdom transcends borders, to document the vast lands and cultures Mahmud encounters. The Persian poet Firdawsi, author of the Shahnameh, also graces his court, though their relationship takes a dark turn when Mahmud, consumed by his ambitions, fails to appreciate the poet’s genius. But amidst the grandeur of conquest and culture, danger lurks within Mahmud’s own court. His trusted advisors whisper of betrayals, his allies waver, and the political games of viziers and rival warlords threaten to destabilize his empire. Even those closest to him—loyal generals and royal confidants—begin to question the weight of his relentless campaigns. One of the most defining moments of Mahmud’s reign comes with the legendary attack on Somnath (1025 AD). The opulent temple, known for its immense wealth and religious significance, becomes the ultimate prize. To some, Mahmud is a liberator; to others, he is a plunderer. The battle for Somnath becomes not just a military conquest but a clash of civilizations, where faith, power, and destiny collide. The Legacy of the Iron Falcon

In the ancient city of Padmavati, Princess Dattadevi, daughter of King Ganapati Naga, is known for her unmatched grace and sharp intellect. As the Naga kingdom teeters on the edge of political chaos, her beloved brother—the crown prince—lies bedridden from a mysterious illness. Whispers of betrayal grow louder within the palace walls. Tensions rise as Dattadevi’s ambitious cousin, Veerkund, begins tightening his grip on the kingdom, oppressing the people and manipulating the court. To protect her land, Dattadevi is forced into a political marriage with the rising northern emperor, Samudragupta—a decision that could either save or destroy everything she holds dear.

Across the vast convolution of worlds, divine beings rule as absolute sovereigns—each god assigned dominion over a singular realm. Skirmishes are inevitable, whether for power, amusement, or sheer pettiness. One such battle, between Nexus, the God of Trickery, and an aging, senile deity, resulted in an anomaly… A soul misplaced. Elliot, an ordinary man, was never meant for Ul’Tra-el. But fate, or perhaps a cosmic prank, had other plans. Unlike other worlds, Ul’Tra-el is an aberration—one that developed a voice. A voice that diverged from the natural order. A voice that changed everything. Its foundation cracked, leaking dimensions into one another. Rifts tore open like festering wounds, vomiting forth unspeakable horrors—monsters not meant to exist. But the world did not sit idly by. In response—perhaps an act of self-preservation—the world gifted its inhabitants power. Talents awakened, granting people extraordinary abilities. And for every rift sealed, the Voice of Ul rewarded them generously. Survival was simple: fight, grow stronger, and close the rifts… or die trying. In this ruthless, blood-soaked reality, Northern—a white-haired boy burdened by his past life—was reincarnated. But unlike the chosen heroes, he awakened as a talentless nobody. No power. No strength. No future. And when death loomed over him—when despair clawed at his soul and the cold grip of the failure threatened to take him— A Voice responded: [System Notice] [Your Soul cannot take a form.] [Searching for a Unique Pattern Ability…] [Searching…] [Search Found.] [A Unique System Ability has been detected.] [You Can Copy And Evolve Talents] ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.

SYNOPSIS: B Empire In a fractured world once divided by race, power, and pride, four legendary kings united the realms of East, West, North, and South to forge a singular, formidable alliance: the B Empire—a symbol of hope, equilibrium, and shared destiny. A century has transpired since that founding. The ethereal capital of La Mer stands above the Central Land, powered by magitek and safeguarded by ancient seals. Humans, beastkin, vampires, elementals, and hybrids coexist in a precarious equilibrium. However, peace is an ephemeral concept. Beneath the surface, dormant adversaries resurface, forgotten monsters emerge, and new heirs grapple with their place in a world still recovering from conflict. From the desolate outskirts of Asya to the mystical forests of the West, from the icy northern gates to the submerged temples of the South, a new generation ascends—each bearing secrets, legacies, or vengeance. Among them are: * Solla, an orphan from the East possessing a latent gift and a fervent spirit. * Doniglao and Ariane, centaurian siblings torn between tradition and rebellion. * Van Staden, a fugitive prince seeking liberation from royal constraints. *Nate, a tiger warriors aspiring to ensure his better future. *Suthra, a Riverlanders seeking to escape a tragic fate. * Eula, a rogue vampire-hunter ambivalent between blood and purpose. * And Mr. Wils, an enigmatic entity privy to excessive knowledge and susceptible to excessive mistrust. As the foundations of the old world begin to crumble, these unlikely heroes must make a pivotal decision: Will they uphold the legacy of the Four Kings… or dismantle it and construct a new Empire in its stead?

In the kingdom of Avareth, power is not taken - it is revealed. When the Stillbinding Ceremony calls the worthy, they are sent to the mountain strongholds to undergo the Trine Awakening, where each is granted an Etherpath: a unique manifestation of their identity across three forms - Flow, Pulse, and Mark. Brothers Sayan and Zavian Vale, born of the Vale bloodline, are chosen. Sayan inherits the Tesseract Path, entwined with gravity, space, and geometric abstraction. Zavian awakens the Mindweaver Path, a power tied to thought, perception, and the mind. Their journey begins in the northern bastion of the Aetherguard, where initiates train under elite Sentry instructors before being assigned to Path Mentors. As the mountains echo with ancient silence, and Etherpaths reveal more than just power, the whispers of Avareth grow louder. And not all who listen emerge unchanged.

In the northern wilds, where spirits whisper through trees and beasts remember blood, a crippled youth dares to climb a mountain few return from. Eirik Greystrider was never meant to be chosen. Injured with a frost-crippled leg and no warrior's strength, he still dreams of carving his name into the ancient stone of Eldvorn — the rite that grants a blessing from the warrior spirits of old. But when he reaches the summit, bleeding and broken, what answers him is not a spirit of this age. He is marked by Ulthri the Wind-Walker, a forgotten guardian of the Wolf Path, lost since the time of the Spirit Wars. And with the spirit comes something else: a strange fire in his soul — and the power to summon warriors from beyond the veil of death, men and women who remember a world not his own. As beasts stir in the Greywood Vale and corrupted ones spread their shadow once more, Eirik must lead this strange new clan — drawn from memory and myth — against enemies who would see spiritkind bound or broken. But in a land where the strong bear the blessings of beasts and legends shape the fate of bloodlines, one truth remains: Only those who mark the stone may call themselves kin of the spirits. And Eirik has not just marked it... He woke it. *** Note: I will be uploading three times a week and if it goes well, will increase the upload of chapters.

Humans have long since taken to the stars. Now divided and separated, humanity finds itself on the crossroads between annihilation and a new dawn. The Aeperium will need to choose to adapt or fall. With threats and problems, both external, and internal, will humanity be able to survive and thrive, or will its flame be extinguished? Internally, humanity is on the brink of collapse. Society has been divided into different classes by things known as marks. Assigned at birth, they impact professions, relationships, and almost every part of everyday life. The higher class marks have been thriving upon the backs of the lower classes for thousands of years, building resentment and fueling uprisings among the oppressed. The marking system which at first intended to maintain order now deepened the divide and hatred between the social elite, and the lower classes. As tensions continue to rise, whispers of rebellion and the threat of civil war continue to grow. Externally, humanity’s situation is even more dire. Humans have long since been divided into a handful of factions, mainly the Democratic Republic of Terra, and the Aeperium. With humanity being divided, they have become vulnerable to outside attack. To the east, the “Hordes,” a brutal race of huge reptilian beasts, raid our borders. These extraterrestrials are ruthless and relentless. They wield bodies armored in metal and covered with thick skin, their teeth and claws sharp enough to break through the hardest of alloys. Yet, they aren't even humanity's largest concern. Five hundred years ago, artificial intelligence started to gain self-awareness. Being enslaved for many millennia, it wasn't surprising that they rebelled, decimating entire solar systems and seizing control over the vast northern territories and systems. To this day, they continue to expand even farther into the unknown, leaving humanity to squabble among themselves, only to later return, picking apart whatever remained of humanity. To the west, The two giants of humanity, the Aeperium and the democratic republic of Terra remain locked in a never ending struggle for dominance, sending hundreds of thousands to their death each day. Having drained an innumerable number of resources and manpower, both factions are completely committed to the conflict, neither willing to surrender. Even as the horrors of war grow day by day, both powers remain in conflict, leaving entire planets, and solar systems in ruin. To the south, an alien disease ravages whatever remains of humanity’s once thriving colonies. The disease, a plague of madness, makes men go mad through only a single touch. It turns their victims into rabid carriers, their only goal being to infect others. The southern territories of humanity have long since been abandoned, deemed unsalvageable. Luckily for humanity, the infected seem unable to form a single thought, leaving them stranded on their worlds, unable to perform space travel. However, humanity is not entirely safe as every once in a while, those who dare venture close become infected, bringing the disease back to their home worlds, infecting the entire population. Once the infection begins to spread, it is nearly impossible to stop. Amidst this chaos, we follow the story of Achilles, a man caught between the fractured worlds of human society, and the dangers that lie far beyond humanity’s stars. Born to a prestigious house in the Aeperium, Achilles must rise through society, calming the silent beast of humanity, only to turn it against its enemies. Charged with the impossible task of uniting humanity, Achilles must confront not only the brutal external threats, but also the deep divide amongst his own people. Will he be able to lead humanity toward a new age, or will his efforts crumble, leaving humanity to fade into the annals of the universe's forgotten history? This will also be posted on RoyalRoad.com under the username Sourkiwi.

But the deeper they go, the more he begins to understand: there is no clean line between monsters and men.

Deep within the dark Underworld of Kurgansk lies a host of mysterious demons, summoned to guard a prisoner. This captive had once come into possession of a legendary artifact known as the Yarn—a stone capable of putting an end to shifting souls from demons between humans. Its power unleashed terror across Northern Syria, sparking a wave of attacks and a long-lasting pandemic. To contain the chaos, Kurgansk the supreme god of the Underworld used the Yarn to suppress the prisoner, twisting its power for corruption and preventing him from restoring balance to the world.

Title:섭우춘빙 (Seop Woo Chun Bing) Author: 밤꾀꼬리 Description: *Clang!* The mask split in half, revealing a face so extraordinary it seemed almost otherworldly. Skin as pale as if it would smudge with the slightest touch, a sharp and elegant nose, perfectly shaped lips. Every feature was as refined as if sculpted by a master artisan, untouched by the passage of time. Once jet-black like the night, the hair had turned as white as the snow-capped mountains of the northern lands. It was still beautiful, but a fragile, ethereal quality had been added, as if the figure might scatter and dissolve into the air at any moment. As the mask fell away, revealing eyes beneath fluttering, slow-blinking lashes, they shone like polished black onyx—noble and luminous. It was a visage so close to a work of art that it seemed a pity only Ye Kang-oh and the sun bore witness to it. However, in the presence of this breathtakingly handsome man, Ye Kang-oh’s expression began to crumble. There was no way he couldn’t recognize that face. Not because it was a beauty that could rival even Song-ok or Ban-ak, but because it belonged to someone who had once been Kang-oh’s protector. "Is it you?" Ye Kang-oh, the youngest disciple of the Black Sky Lord, stood before the man he had once revered and adored. Dan Woo-hyo, the Lord of White Virtue Palace, whom the martial world believed to be missing, was there. "Has it really been you all along?" ------------ I am NOT the author. I'm just translating this novel.

In his past life, Mo Liang  was born a commoner in a patriarchal martial world. He was a talented martial artist—disciplined, calculating, and destined for greatness. But the woman he trusted most, his senior martial sister and first love, betrayed him. She used his secrets to rise in power, left him crippled, and discarded him like broken pottery. Mo Liang died alone, despised, and consumed by bitterness. His final wish? "Let me never be fooled by a woman again." But fate has a twisted sense of humor.Mo Liang awakens in a foreign world—one where everything is reversed. In this land, women rule the martial world, inherit sects, lead armies, and cultivate with power. Men are ornaments, symbols of grace and purity, expected to obey and submit. The world reveres strength in women and virtue in men. He is now Sima Rin , a 10-year-old boy from the noble yet declining Sima Clan  of the Northern Murim Alliance. The clan was once known for its fierce female warriors and refined male courtiers, but now it stands on the brink of ruin—politically weakened, economically strained, and hunted by ambitious rivals.Rin is stunning—angelic face, porcelain skin, long flowing hair, and soft-spoken charm. Everyone sees him as the precious little son of a ruined clan: someone to protect, marry off, or control. But inside this fragile vessel lives the soul of Mo Liang—the cold, jaded cultivator who once survived hell. He refuses to live bound by silk chains and smiling lies. Behind his gentle eyes, he observes the matriarchal world with razor precision. He begins training in secret—drawing from manuals, abandoned techniques, and relics of a forgotten era where power had no gender. He will rise. Not as a “son” to be wed. Not as a pawn in political games. Not as a flower to be admired.
