I Wish I Knew Then

Synopsis: In a world where survival is a relentless battle, Nile, a 30+ year-old father drowning in debt and despair, struggles to protect his family from a system built on corruption and greed. By day, he fights against inflation, layoffs, and an uncertain future; by night, he escapes into the glow of his phone, mindlessly scrolling—until sleep finally takes him. Then, everything goes dark. The air reeks of blood. Chains rattle. A deafening roar shakes the walls. Nile wakes up in a gladiator’s cell, thrust into an arena where death is the only certainty. Kill or be killed. But as his first opponent falls, the world shatters around him. Now, time itself is his prison. One moment, he’s running from raptors in a prehistoric jungle; the next, he’s dodging arrows on a medieval battlefield. Empires rise and crumble beneath his feet. A dystopian future ruled by AI forces him into a desperate game of survival. Each leap is more brutal, more terrifying—the agony, the adrenaline, the fear all real. Yet a whisper gnaws at him: Is this madness… or something else? As Nile’s mind unravels, he notices a chilling pattern. The worlds bend to his deepest fears and buried memories. A tyrant’s face mirrors the politician who ruined his life. A futuristic corporation bears the name of the company that fired him. The novel he once dreamed of writing is no longer fiction—it’s consuming him. Reality and delusion blur. If Nile can’t master the rules of this shifting nightmare, he won’t just lose his life—he’ll lose himself, trapped forever in a labyrinth where every era ends the same way: in blood. Belief shapes reality. Doubt fuels destruction. And the greatest enemy Nile faces… is the story he tells himself.

Poland, 1939. Fourteen-year-old Hannah Rosenberg lives a peaceful life in Warsaw with her loving parents and younger brother, Avi. But when the Nazis invade, everything changes. Forced into the Warsaw Ghetto, Hannah’s family struggles to survive amid starvation and disease. When the ghetto is liquidated in 1943, she is separated from her mother and brother, torn from her father’s grasp, and sent to Auschwitz with her best friend, Rivka Weiss. In the death camp, Hannah faces unthinkable horrors—brutal SS officers, starvation, and the constant shadow of death. She finds solace in fellow prisoners like Esther Goldstein, a motherly figure who helps her survive, and Isaac Levin, a boy who still dares to dream of freedom. But as time passes, she loses more and more of the people she loves. As the war nears its end, Hannah is forced on the Death March, where survival seems impossible. But even in the darkest moments, a flicker of hope remains. With liberation approaching, Hannah must find the strength to endure, even as she faces the painful truth—survival comes with its own price. "I Survived" is a heartbreaking and historically accurate tale of loss, resilience, and the fight to hold onto humanity in the face of unimaginable cruelty.

"Yet, beneath the surface, the atmosphere buzzed with curiosity and mischief, especially with the arrival of the new student. As I stepped into the room, an unsettling silence descended upon the class. Not that I was surprised, it always happened. Silence was my domain. I thrived in it. The stillness, the absence of sound, felt like home. It was where I belonged, where I could let the emptiness within me expand and consume. Actually I loved it. Silence wasn't just my preference.. it's a necessity. It's where I liked to dwell it's where everything turns black and you'll just drench in it and fill my empty void of darkness, to please my hungry sides and calm my spirits, to veil the memories i couldn't erase. I've always been left in the dark in every area and rather than being lost in it. I find peace, everything went dark when my Mother's death occurred, when my innocence was ruined and forgotten, when my dad abandoned me to life, i gave up all of it. The world has taken everything from me, I was the definition of empty valuless barrel and in return I had taken my darkness as my solace, I had embraced it and let it sleep in every corner of my existence, i chose a new part to make everyone pay, to gracefully take what's not mine, to mark it, claim it, to take joy, hopes and liv----- "Class, please welcome Alaric Damian. He'll be joining us and studying with you all from today." a voice echoed beside me. +_+ What was that? I reached out and grabbed a glowing diamond amulet, its brilliance cutting through the darkness of the mysterious room I suddenly found myself in. As my fingers closed around it, the ground beneath me began to crack and crumble. Before I could react, the entire room collapsed into nothingness. Now, I was standing on the edge of an impossibly large staircase suspended in the clouds. I could barely tell up from down, the fog around me so dense it was disorienting. But as I looked ahead, my eyes caught something: the stairs behind me disappeared with each step I took forward. There was no going back. +_+ "You're interesting.., you talk a lot for someone ....your size... but at least you.... smell nice," he remarked. I blinked, unsure how to respond. He was showing no expression or emotions...what kind of being is this..why would you just say that out of the blue. "What!?" I gawked at him, my mind struggling to process whether it was an insult or a compliment.... +_+ Two different worlds collide; Will it destroy or become one?.... will it be advantageous or disadvantageous?.... Will there be peace or war?... Two side are missing!.... Is it really meant to be?... Don't leave your curiosity hanging, and drench in the chapters with me...

Now, hear me out and hear me well: my name is Barogey. I was born into a humble merchant family, and yes, I’m the guy you read about at the start—the one dying. No, I wasn’t reincarnated, and honestly, if I had been, I’d rather not have been. I’m a larger man... okay, let’s not sugarcoat it—I’m kinda chubby. Blame my parents for spoiling me rotten as a kid. I had a younger brother, Louis, who I used to bully, but, uh... I killed him. Long story. Before all that drama, I was a Doctor of Magical Engineering. Then came the prison stint—because, you know, the usual evil villain schtick: kidnapping a princess, taunting her friends, and trying to force a wedding. Before that little escapade, I lived in the human kingdom of Magder. Anyway, now I’m fresh out of prison, shipped off to Tabnoth. Apparently, Vistor thinks throwing all the world’s rejects into one place is a genius plan. But hey, I’m not complaining. As long as this place has a good deli, I’m set.
