Thrall

The Shards of My Soul (Book I in the Ascended Series)

In the northern royal kingdom of Arszden, nothing is as it seems. Being one of the oldest of the Fourteen Kingdoms, time has made its history both fact and fairytale, and to this day, nobody knows which is more accurate, either fantasy or reality. Katarina Kasdan was born free, but 321 days ago, her entire world crumbled at her feet. Not for the first time, and surely, not for the last. Stripped of her right to freedom after her entire village was burned to the ground, she was taken as a thrall by the woman known as the Keiserinne, and used for her dark wishes. But her wyrd was long ago settled. When the infamous Steel Kairo walks into her life, everything changes, once more. He is everything she hates. Everything she fears. Everything she loves. He has secrets interwoven with the very birth of the world he seems to carry in his shoulders, holds more power than one should ever be given to wield, and, on top of it all, he is said to be immortal. Something she should have known the first time she tried to stab him. Or when he offered to teach her to throw knives. Or when he kissed her for the first time. But as another king sits on his throne destined to fall, others reach to claim a crown bejeweled with secrets that could mean the unveiling of a long-lost prophecy and a wyrd millennia before settled. And as false kings race to claim an inheritance that is neither theirs nor the king's firstborn, the wyrd wields its hand to place upon the one true heir's head the crown of the Lost King. And amid such secrets lies a fate that claims that these two will be the bane of each other's existence until the blood of one of them is shed upon a land of daisies. Thus, chaos will come. Lives will be lost. Bonds will be made. Vows will be broken. Blood will be spilled. Fates will be set. And war will be waged. And the only remaining question is whether steel will be broken or a daisy will blossom. (Norse mythology and Viking inspired)

Bloodlines of Destiny -The Battle between Light and Darkness

Under the blood-red moon, a carnival in a desolate corner of the world buzzed with sinister energy. The laughter of spectators rang hollow as the freak show unfolded—a haunting display of the bizarre and unnatural. At its center stood Rain, a young woman with a tragic beauty, her ethereal presence both captivating and unsettling. Her every move carried an air of defiance, a quiet rage against a world that saw her as nothing more than an abomination. Rain was no ordinary carnival performer. Sensitive to water, scarred by her past, she harbored a secret that made her a target for forces far beyond the gawking crowds. The daughter of a human mother and a vampire father, she was a Dhamphyr—a hybrid cursed to straddle the worlds of light and shadow. In her veins coursed a power that defied both death and destruction, a power coveted by those who sought to dominate the world. Miles away, in a fortress shrouded by perpetual night, Kagan, the most feared vampire of the age, learned of Rain's existence. She was the key to ancient talismans—artifacts of unspeakable power—that could grant dominion over all. He dispatched his most loyal thralls to hunt her down, determined to claim her strength for his dark ambitions. But Rain had her own vendetta. Kagan’s shadow loomed large over her past, the murderer of her mother and the architect of her suffering. With nothing but vengeance in her heart and the faint hope of justice, Rain embarked on a perilous journey. Her path would cross with rebels, seekers of light, and enemies disguised as allies, all vying for the talismans that could shape the fate of the world.

The forgotten prophecy

The sound of thunder rang through the night. Clouds slowly covering the Persian blue sky like a blanket. Night had fallen. In about forty-six seconds the full impact of the brewing storm would reach her. She could already feel the raindrops hitting her bare arms falling to the tempo of her beating heart.  She was used to this by now. She counted the twelve steps that would take her to the front door of the all so familiar house she would see every single night she dared sleep. She crossed the threshold and was instantly hit by a wave of warmth; she shrugged of her sleeveless jacket before crossing the small distance between her and the kitchen where her coffee was already brewing. In the amount of time she had visited there, she never saw who occupied the house. She was like a visitor, a trespasser. Every night for as long as she could remember she would fall asleep and wake up in this same old routine. She had no control of what she did in this place that set her nerves on edge every time she visited this awful place. She grabbed her coffee and walked out of the kitchen, through the corridor that seemed to stretch out for miles and into her room. Instinctively her head jerked to the right, where engraved on the wall was the most intricate symbol she had ever seen. A triangle stood proud amidst a thrall of ancient if not forgotten texts. Ruins ran around the perimeter of the circle and flowed into the little space in the circle left. She knew she had seen the texts somewhere, the knowledge niggling at the back of her mind yet staying out of her grasp. Her fingers followed the lines glowing like fire trails. She always did this, it seemed to calm every single one of her nerves right before the dream would finish. She waited for the all too familiar buzzing sensation that would occur seconds before the scene would fade. Nothing happened. Everything was still, the air became thick with tension but nothing moved. For the first time ever, she felt scared. Her eyes widened as she realized that something was off. Nothing had ever changed, it had been the exact same since she was no more than a small bundle of baby. So why would something changed. Her head jerked round as she scanned the room for anything off, anything dangerous. Her eyes were instantly drawn to the window like a magnet. She didn't bare blink as she waited with bated breath. Something was coming, she could feel it. Her whole body was buzzing with the anticipation. Slowly but surely something started to emerge from the blanket that shrouded the room. She felt a chill run down her spine as she realized with growing horror that they were a set of deep blood thirsty eyes. Eyes that meant danger. Eyes that looked at her with such intensity, that they left no doubt of the message they conveyed. It was coming for her.                                                                     Before her brain could register what was happening, her mouth was already open and she was screaming at the top of her lungs. With a giant crack, the glass shattered and she was engulfed in the darkness once more.

The Ragnarok Effect: Origin Story

"Perfection is never achieved, only striven for." -Primus "Origin" Odhinkar In the midst of the Viking age, a young man has a birthright that few can begin to comprehend in its totality; himself included. The secrets and technology of an alien race allowed the Balderklan, a once small and dwindling people, to ascend into the realm of historic legend, their perks of understanding unbound by the old limitations that life offered them prior. They became the most powerful beings on the planet, a world yet to be properly mapped out. Indeed, the innovations of rare geniuses and the persistence of patient men wiser than their time resulted in the birth of three brothers that could be considered the next step in human evolution, with the mind-boggling technology melded with their bodies naturally. Born into a position unlike anyone else in human history, Primus Odhinkar and his brothers, Lars and Soren, seek to discover who and what they are, while destiny carves the path they stride together. The road is paved with good intentions, yet the misfortune of a thrall may come forth to avenge his now devistated people while desperately hanging onto his humanity with sheer faith. While the truths of reality can be discovered through the technology these boys weild, the secrets hint toward a catastrophic imbalance that not even the Grand Elder of the alien race could prepare them for. They have only the lessons of their people to reflect on how and why they came here, to avoid the same cataclysm that may occur in this world just the same. "I'd like to call this, The Ragnarok Effect." -Mathias Ugelsted

The One Who Can See The Unseen

The story is set in a world where ghosts, devils, angels and God are just known as fairy tales. Rapid technological developments have made most of mankind a man of science who believe more that the world is made up of atoms. However, What we can see in the world is not everything. There are various things that we can't see with our eyes, such as affection, love, or hate. Strange enough that humans can believe it easily even without visible proof, but they can't believe such as gracious as God and others. In this seemingly desolate and serene world, unbeknownst to most of Earth's inhabitants, humanity coexists with other entities from the fourth dimension. They coexist with the rest of us with worlds that overlap as one. They can see us, but we never know that they are around us. They are almighty with abilities beyond reason, and they like to mess around in places where humans are drowning in their negative feelings. There are many unexplained things in this world. There are so many phenomena that occur that cannot be understood with formulas and the periodic table. Many diseases cannot be recognized even with the most advanced medical technology. Many sudden deaths whose causes cannot be known with certainty. Many improbable accidents where causes and effects are not mutually exclusive and in sync. And there are much more things in this world that are impossible to accept with common sense. All of that happened because of them, the mysterious entities from the fourth dimension. As many as one in a million people can see these mysterious entities. Which is about half the population of those who can see the entity, decide to team up with them and fight against fellow human beings. The corrupt people are referred to as Thralls. While the other half prefers to fight the mysterious entity and protect the world. They are named Messiah. They have served for hundreds of years to protect humanity behind the scenes. They are reluctant heroes. The protagonist, Inoue Kai, is an ordinary middle school student who goes about his daily life like most people. However, his life changed by ninety degrees because his best friend found a book that could turn the impossible into the possible. Inoue Kai can see what previously could not be seen, and he is forced to take responsibility for a mistake he did not make, only because he accidentally read a book that tells about the world's Armageddon that will occur soon. [Genre: A little bit of Sci-fi, Horror, Fantasy, Tragedy, Action, Violence, Adventure, Mystery, and Magic.]

Here is a new post of me playing the new epic exotic exodus preparation quests! This new content update added the pyramid ships to the locations of Titan, Mercury and Mars and it is very exotic. Io already was infested with the pyramid ships since my last video about a previous content update. 1:00 - TITAN I started to try to do the first quest on Titan and I had to do the weekly challenges to get the quest step. This was easy on some of the locations and took a bit longer on other ones. This was also surprisingly epic. 10:00 - IO I also had to do a trip to Io. I think this was because the developers wanted to show us the beauty of these locations before removing them to the vault temporarily. 15:00 - MERCURY On the epic planet Mercury I decided to do a little side adventure together with the mission that I had to do to get the next quest step. 20:00 - MARS On Mars I had to destroy enormous amounts of the Thrall enemies and they did hide from me.
