Nothing Without You

"I had fought before. I had bled before. But this was different. This was madness. One moment, I was home laughing and singing with my brethren, the next… I'm met with a graveyard of empty eyes and frozen faces. And now these mongrels hunt me through the storm, blades drawn and voices sharp with laughter. Echoes in the snow continue to call my name as I drown in snow and steel. Were they guiding me? Or had I already lost my mind?" A World Without Reflections is a novel steeped in Eastern fantasy and Dark Souls-like desolation, following Chael, a warrior chief who returns to a home that no longer breathes. The voices are gone. The fires are cold. They still stand, but they do not live. And somewhere beyond the frost and silence, unseen hands pull at fate’s fraying threads. Shadows move in the snow. Mirrors lie. Figures from the past emerge, and with them, a question that should have never been asked.

Prince Alric Lyra, tired of royal life and its endless salads, ran away from home. Unfortunately, his 'grand adventure' involved a pirate attack and an accidental unleashing of ancient magic. Now he's stuck with superpowers and a questionable fashion sense (thanks, pirates).

"Where do you live, let me take you home.?" Derrick inquired "Why do you ask, did they send you here?" She asked. She gulped down the beer she was holding.

She kept asking herself these questions without getting any answers in return... Just then the door was pushed open by a man with a tray in his hands that contains different dishes...

Update: Novel to resume updates on the first week of March and will feature ending of Volume 2, and beginning of the semi-final volume (Volume 3) and the final volume (volume 4) — “I Lord Tank Albridge, and my family, Pete Albridge, Cleo Albridge, and Fred Albridge, disavow Vinnandra the hateful as our blood. “Today, in one voice we curse the day she joined us, and we’ll forever celebrate the day she has left our ranks! Vinnandra shall not know us, and she is not ours to know anymore.” *** In a world of white-haired dragon riders and black-haired witches, Princess Vinnandra Albridge is born red-haired as the forbidden spawn of a witch-spy and a dragon rider known as the Hateful. Unwanted by her family and shunned by society, Vinn tries to get by everyday unnoticed and alive. However, her simple plans come crashing down when her family disavows her by removing her from her royal bloodline, proclaiming her a traitor to consequently serve as an official slave to the notorious Lenklock dragon riders family that rules in the North. There, it would seem that while Vinn might not be able to groom a dragon, she might make good food for one… not if she had anything to do about it. Vowing to fight for her life and rise above others, Vinn must learn how to break through her blood and reach to whatever minute strength she possesses and become a dragon rider… or something. And it would seem Vinnandra’s vows would be realised in the form of Xander Lenklock—a troubled man and problematic heir who charges into her life, proclaiming a nobody like her his greatest ally and seeking her alliance. For the first time in a long while, Vinn feels needed and wanted—two dangerous elements that ignites feelings she shouldn’t have, and evokes thoughts she shouldn’t think. And in a partnership that might make or break them, Vinn was sure she would do anything to have Xanders’ body, heart and soul. Problem is, Xander has a fiancée who was there to stay… forever. But with her mothers past looming over her, and with shadows of the enemy hidden in the trees playing their ultimate move, even if Vinnandra manages to steal Xander’s heart, will she be able to keep it? Or will her dubious identity destroy everything she has come to enjoy? Will the powers she has come to possess swallow her? Or could she be the enemy that her people really fear? Be whatever it might, the ultimate question remains—Dragon rider or Witch… which is she? ***** VOLUME 1 (Beginnings): COMPLETE VOLUME 2 (Chaos Abounds): ONGOING VOLUME 3: (Wrath of the Burned): UPCOMING

She was done, just done with her life. She was among the top hackers globally, but most of them probably didn't even know she existed due to her being almost untraceable. And she was also... Seventeen. From her whole family, she only had a good relationship with her parents. The relation between her two brothers and the rest of her family wasn't good. Her family wasn't poor or rich; they were just a typical middle-class family. But even though she had it good at home, she didn't want to be stuck at home. She wanted to be free, see the world, discover new places and cultures, and meet new people, but sadly couldn't do that due to her still being underage and in school, so she planned out her disappearance. ---------------------------- This novel is a creation from my fantasy. It is partially based on the real world, but I recommend you treat it as a fantasy world since there will be things that don't exist in the world as we know it and I write the story, characters, etc as I go. It may occur that things don't add up. Of course, I try my best to let everything make sense. This is my first novel, and English is not my native language. Because of that, there may be typos, grammar mistakes, and so on, even though I try to limit those by using Grammarly. I will try my best to upload 2-3 chapters a week, but I can't promise that I will be consistent with the updates, but I will still try my best :)

This will be a kingdom building kind with comedy but there will be a fair share of adventures. Greji was just your average high schooler minding his own business when BAM! He got hit by the infamous Truck-kun. Next thing he knows, he’s waking up in a whole new world as the son of a broke count. And sure, that might sound like the beginning of a cool power fantasy, but here’s the twist: the universe seems to have misplaced all his cheat codes. No system to guide him. No ancient spirit to train him. No talent, no godlike bloodline, no family fortune. Literally nothing. Except… oh, he’s got killer looks. Great for the masses especially women, not so much for slaying demon kings. As the demon king's armies getting out of the seals, Greji is left scrambling to figure out how to save the world without any of the usual perks. His grand “strategy”? Bluff, charm, and somehow survive with nothing but his absurdly good looks and sharp (but mostly sarcastic) wit. With a ragtag team of equally unlucky misfits, a mage whose spells never work as intended, a knight terrified of seeing blood, and a healer with a chronic inability to shut up and sometimes uses curse to heal, Greji stumbles from one disaster to another. Can he actually take down the demon king, or will his stunning face end up plastered on "Wanted: Dead or Mostly Dead" posters? One thing’s for sure: Greji’s new life is anything but ordinary… or fair. DISCLAIMER!!! I used ai to enhance my grammar but the storyline,dialogues, and idea are mine and mine alone.
