The Path On Which Forsythia Fell

My first ever original project. A guy from another earth gets transported to an alternate earth in the body of a teenager named Edward, a world where heroic spirits and divine beings from mythologies were no longer a myth. A world that was invaded by alien species and outer gods long ago , where humans inherit the heroic spirits from characters of legends and fight otherworldly invaders appearing with dimensional gates, a modern society based on heroes and strength, where the weak don't fare well. A world that was teetering on the brink of extinction without anyone knowing . For Ragnarok would be upon them once again. Thrust into a chaotic world of heroes ; how will Edward survive, and uncover the real truth behind the chaos of this world? Or will he succumb to the allure of power and let go? What is truly real, and what are the reasons behind this madness ? Read ahead to find out, as we go on a journey of mystery, betrayals and revelations. There will be various mythology and legends explored, as well as lovecraftian horrors. The story is inspired from the nasuverse concept of heroic spirits, but won’t follow those origin stories. First 3 chapters are very important for understanding the world background and plot.

In a world shattered into eight Echoes by a divine cataclysm, the Second Echo has fallen under the dominion of an immortal tyrant: the Dark King. The frozen lands of Brisombre, a remote duchy within the last standing empire, have become the frontline of resistance against an endless tide of monsters. Galahad Lysandor, heir to a noble lineage and the last son of the Duke of Brisombre, fights to defend his homeland amidst a war that seems unwinnable. Alongside weary veterans and legendary wandering knights, he faces unrelenting darkness, where every battle chips away at the fragile hope of survival. But hope is not yet lost. To survive—and to vanquish the shadows—Galahad must master the aether coursing through his veins and prove himself worthy of joining the Thirteen Sacred Knights, the empire’s last line of defense. As he ventures deeper into the fight for his world, Galahad will uncover harsh truths about the Echoes and learn that light, too, can destroy as easily as it saves.

Jace was just an ordinary college student with no faith in the divine, no belief in afterlives, and no preparation for what came next. One rainy evening, his life ends, and he finds himself cast into a formless void of infinite nothingness—a liminal space where souls without ties are forgotten and dissolved. Before oblivion claims him, a self-proclaimed god named Myrr intervenes. Myrr is neither benevolent nor malevolent but a cosmic rogue, drawn to the novelty of Jace’s unaligned existence. Instead of condemning Jace to the abyss, Myrr offers him an extraordinary deal: reincarnation in a world of magic, danger, and eternal conflict. There’s a catch, of course—this world is locked in a stalemate between two warring factions of divine forces, and Jace’s presence is meant to tip the scales. Awakening in a body stronger, faster, and sharper than his own, Jace discovers that survival in this new realm is anything but guaranteed. Armed with mysterious skills granted by the world’s system and little guidance from his so-called benefactor, he must navigate hostile lands, grow stronger, and decide how—or if—he will disrupt the precarious balance of power. It’s a second chance at life, but the question remains: is Jace truly free, or just another pawn in a divine game?

She saved him, and he owes his life to her. But now, she doesn’t remember him. Also she has changed.

This isn’t a love story. This is a war. And Emily? She’s the prey. Would Noah be her Prince Charming that saves her?

In a world overshadowed by eternal darkness, monstrous creatures born from meteorite fragments have ravaged humanity, forcing survivors underground into a colony devoid of light. Among them is Zami Agatoru, a young man burdened by tragedy and destined for greatness. Once a promising warrior of his clan, Zami was the sole survivor of a monster attack that claimed his family and clan. Now, he dwells in the vast, oppressive underworld, facing unimaginable horrors while seeking redemption and purpose. Zami’s strength stems not from supernatural powers but from years of relentless training and a cursed ability: revival. Upon death, Zami revives moments before his defeat, retaining memories and honing his skills over countless lifetimes. This ability has allowed him to surpass human limits, evolving both mind and body into the perfect warrior. Armed with a black katana forged from an otherworldly stone and a toxic dagger he crafted from monster bones, Zami ventures deeper into the colony. He faces terrifying Vessels, avatars of powerful entities tied to the meteorites. Each Vessel wields devastating abilities, challenging Zami’s resolve and pushing him beyond his physical and mental limits. As Zami progresses, he unravels the colony's dark secrets: the origin of the meteorites, the true nature of the Vessels, and the essence of the creatures that worship these fragments. Along the way, he uncovers the deeper truth about himself and the entity that dwells within him—Karesh, a being tied to the meteorite’s power. Driven by the need to protect humanity and confront the Vessels, Zami faces impossible odds. From the Abyssal Cradle, home of the fearsome Wailing Dread, to the Forsaken Hollow, where the Silent Agony’s true body lies, and the Withering Spire, where Shattered Dominion warps reality itself, Zami battles creatures that defy logic. Amid this chaos, Zami grapples with his humanity. His stoic, emotionless demeanor hides a young man carrying the weight of loss and duty. Moments of quiet—crafting weapons, preparing food, or reflecting on his clan’s philosophy—highlight his depth and resilience. Through countless revivals, bloody battles, and grueling challenges, Zami inches closer to his ultimate goal: destroying the meteorite fragments and ending the monsters’ reign. But with each battle, the cost of his journey grows heavier, forcing him to confront the essence of sacrifice, mortality, and the question of what it truly means to be human.
