Forest Of The Beasts

They say that 90 percent of the world's oceans have been unexplored, due to just how much floor there is to cover. Imagine a world where, instead of deep trenches of water, our oceans were filled with forests—endless forests—where the further you go, the stranger, and larger the creatures become. The air growing thicker, and heavier, with the stinging sharpness of ozone; trees that stretch into the stratosphere, or bottomless muddy quagmires that are so deep that the bodies claimed can never be discovered; deer the size of whales, or bigger still, with an anomalous number of legs; the oppressive daytime darkness, never ending, due to the boundless appetite of the trees. Who knows what untold methods of ravenous mutilation might be discovered in the great beyond; or what unfathomable treasures lurk just beyond the shadow's edge. We find ourselves marooned in little islands of flat plain in the midst of miles and endless miles of oppressive wooded wilderness. Do not let the sunlight fool you. There is nothing keeping the terrors of the depths from venturing into the light.

Betrayed, broken, but not dead. After finally achieving the legendary Golden Spiritual Core, Bai Langtian should’ve stood on the threshold of greatness. Instead, he was betrayed by his own Sect Master, his core ripped from his body, and cast from the peak of Radiant Sun Mountain. He should’ve died. But fate had other plans. Langtian woke at the bottom of a cursed valley, his body shattered, his cultivation destroyed. With his core stolen, his future burned to ashes. Then, how could he possibly survive, let alone seek revenge? There was only one path left. The Path of Ten Thousand Beasts. In the belly of the abyss, among twisted trees and blood-soaked earth, Langtian would battle through wave after wave of feral, demonic beasts. He would devour their flesh, drink their blood, absorb their spirit essence, to become something powerful, something monstrous. __________________________________________ About the story: - Slow paced with detailed and complex world building and lore.

This entire story takes place in a forest — a very dangerous forest, a dark empire. The name of that forest is Omariya Footsteps. In this forest, there are many ancient tribal human groups. Some of them include the Naazi, Moji, Dhrunari, Ekkoru, and many others. Among them, the Naazi are a very powerful tribe with a large army. Across the whole of Omariya Forest, the Naazi hold dominance because of their strong military. Next to them are the Moji, who are always looking to conquer the other tribes. But they never dare to mess with the Naazi — they fear their army. Far away from all of this, there is a military base. It never interferes, but it watches from a distance. That is the current situation in the Omariya Footsteps. These forests — the Omariya Forest — are located in the Congo Basin of South Africa. But then… something happens. Because of certain people, the Naazi army is destroyed. The once powerful Naazi tribe becomes weak. And then, one man, who comes from outside the forest, arrives to save them. This is the story. There are many interesting things in this story — like how the Naazi army was destroyed, why that man came, and what the hidden forces did. This story takes a new turn from a place in India — the Milton Research Center (MRC) located in Mumbai. This organization conducts research on many things related to the forest. One day, they discover something in that forest — something that completely changes the history of the Omariya Footsteps. The key person in this story is Virat — he works in the Milton Research Sector. Riya, who also works there, plays an important role. Because of these two people, the story of the Naazi tribe changes forever.

This is my second Novel. I’m still learning and working on both my novels. hope you enjoy reading it My other Novel: Kingdom of Valor

Ophelia had always been passionate about romance novels, especially those filled with charming and attractive young protagonists. Fascinated by a particular genre, she never imagined she would find herself living a story akin to the ones that captivated her. Transmigrated into a world where women are revered and polyandry is the norm, she awakens in the body of a magnificent snow wolf, abandoned in a vast flowered plain. As she embarks on a journey to understand this unexpected reality, Ophelia discovers friendship, love, and, above all, the true experience of being cherished.

It all started with a curse. In the sterile halls of St. Solace Hospital, Laura—wounded, desperate, and blinded by grief—cast a curse she never meant to. A curse that tore through the innocent, striking a child who wasn’t meant to bear its weight. Rozzi, a hero caught in the shadows, made the ultimate sacrifice to protect that child, her life extinguished in the Spiral’s growing darkness. And Asto De La, a father shattered by loss and betrayal, was pushed to the edge of madness. His quest for justice became a battle against something ancient and merciless—a forest that remembers every name, every pain, every secret. Now the forest watches. Elias, a boy who should have died that night, lives on beneath the trees. Saved by a silent girl whose name he never learned, he became the Spiral’s last heir. He writes the names of the forgotten into the dirt so they don’t vanish, so the curse doesn’t spread. But memory is not merciful. And the Spiral never forgets. When the dead begin to whisper and children wake remembering things they never lived, the curse calls again. Elias must choose between becoming a monster like the one who saved him… Or breaking the forest’s heart one name at a time. The Forest Never Forgets is a chilling supernatural tale of memory, sacrifice, and the weight of love that refuses to die. This is where grief grows wild and names become roots. Dear Readers, Some stories are born from fire. This is one of them. In the shadows of forgotten places, in the silence after screams, the past waits. It doesn't fade. It doesn't forgive. And if you dare to look too closely, it might look back. The Forest Never Forgets is not just a story of grief, curses, and the supernatural—it's about the aching cost of love, the terror of truth, and the monsters we inherit. Every word was written with trembling fingers and a haunted heart. I hope you read it with the same fire. Welcome to St. Solace. Remember: once you enter, it remembers you too. With ash-stained pages

But when the mark begins to glow, fragments of Elian’s past awaken, and the forest reacts. They set off on a journey to unravel the truth, their fates entwined in ways neither expected. They were destined to meet, but by love? Or by fate?... A slow-burn fantasy romance with magic, mystery, and sacrifice.

She was once an elite assassin, feared for her cunning mind and lethal skills. After years of operating in the shadows as the infamous "White Fox," she finally allowed herself a rare break—a vacation in the comfort of her modern apartment. While relaxing in her own sanctuary, the familiar world she knew suddenly shattered when a mysterious system activated, pulling her away from everything she had known and transmigrating her into a bizarre new realm. She awakens in a land ruled by powerful beastmen, where females are rare and fiercely protected. Stripped of her modern tools yet still armed with a razor-sharp dagger and a mind honed by years of deadly work, she finds herself in a world where her survival depends on adapting quickly and completing missions given by her latent, mysterious system. Unlike the delicate women of this realm, she is ruthless, calculating, and a two-faced cold-hearted killer who will stop at nothing to conquer the challenges before her. As she tames savage beasts and navigates treacherous alliances, cryptic system texts echo in the back of her mind, urging her toward an unknown destiny. Yet, as rival forces rise and long-buried secrets resurface, an enigmatic power stirs deep within her—a power that even she does not fully understand. Amidst this chaotic world, she encounters powerful beastmen—each as dangerous as they are captivating. All wanted nothing but her. With the system's eerie commands marking her fate, if this new world seeks to control her, it will first have to survive her. When the system whispered her name, a strange sensation filled her. [Nyxaria Duneveil, the main mission has been initiated.] She felt a sudden chill creep down her spine, an odd familiarity tugging at the edges of her mind. "Nyx..aria... Duneveil? No, that's not my name… or is it? Why does it feel so strange… familiar, yet unfamiliar at the same time? If it's not my name, then... what is my name?" In this unfamiliar world, where nothing felt like home, her own name became a haze to her—like a puzzle missing a crucial piece. It gnawed at her, leaving her with an inexplicable sense of discomfort, as though something vital about herself was just out of grasp. A fleeting memory danced just beyond her reach, like a whisper from a past she couldn't recall.

Now, with power he barely understands, a system he doesn’t trust, and enemies rising all around him, Darian must navigate a world built on strength, secrets, and slaughter. He must train, evolve, and survive long enough to reach the stars because the beasts aren’t the only threat. Out there, in the void beyond the Rift, something far older is watching.

She meets David the bear beastmen who looks like her husband when he offers her some honey bbq. The Ape King becomes suspicious of her when she reveals a prophecy about the City of Beasts destruction. Shelly introduces spa treatments to females and becomes very successful! I knew I shouldn’t carry things downstairs, but I was trying to clean quickly because we had company coming later that day. I was rushing while wearing my fuzzy socks and slipped on the carpeted stairs. I had fallen before, but not from this high up. I was dreading the bumpy landing with our TV and speakers at the bottom to break my fall, not to mention the glass coffee table. I was expecting to be heavily injured and just prayed I didn’t die. I closed my eyes and braced myself for the fall, but was surprised to land on dew covered grass instead. I opened my eyes and took in the plush forest around me. ‘I knew that fall would kill me one of these days!’ I thought to myself. I remember arguing with David, my husband about playing the speakers and TV at the base of the stairs for that exact reason, but our small living room didn’t have much space to put it after the giant L shaped couch took up half of the living room. Shocked, I was thinking, ‘ So this is not what I expected Heaven to look like!, Where are the clouds and pearly gates? Where are the angels? Maybe I just hit my head and am unconscious and this is all a dream?’ Looking around at the tallest trees I had ever seen, I decided this had to be a dream. I was brought back to focus when I heard wolves nearby! I got up and started to run away looking for a tree I might climb up. I was always good in gymnastics despite being overweight. My husband and I had recently started going on morning walks and exercising, but I hated running. Nothing is more motivating than a pack of hungry wolves chasing you. “This is not the way I wanted to die!” I yelled to no one in particular. I found a tree with a low enough branch for me to parkour my way up. The wolves circled the tree and were jumping almost high enough to get me. I tried to climb higher, but heard the branch start to creak. “Ahh, someone help me!!!” I screamed at the top of my lungs when one of the wolves almost got my foot. * This is a fan fiction based off of 'Beauty and the Beasts' by White-Headed Dream.
