Aetherborn

The world forgot. Aether did not. Gaia once pulsed with life and memory. In the old age, spirits whispered back, Aether flowed like breath, and humanity walked hand-in-hand with the unseen. But that age faded. The ancient songs were drowned by sirens and static. Legends were buried beneath headlines. Tomes became tabs, and relics were traded for screens. Until the Calamity came. Five waves struck the world—each deadlier than the last. Cities fell silent. Nations collapsed. And amid the chaos, only one force was prepared: Gaia Financial Corporation. Led by four enigmatic founders, they unveiled the Unsealer—a machine not of war, but of memory. A device designed to awaken what humanity had forgotten… the truth about Aether. The Archivus family—distinguished by their silver hair—are common among Aether users gifted with space-warping abilities. Categorized as Walkers, they possess a legacy rooted deep in blood and myth. At the heart of their power lies the Codex Nexus—a manifestation of Aether shaped into a floating grimoire. It stores weapons, marks locations for teleportation, and perhaps... holds secrets even Ryuji has yet to uncover. Who knows where its limits lie? Ryuji Archivus never asked for a legacy. He is the grandson of Genzo Archivus, one of the Nine First Unsealed—once hailed as The General. Now retired and Self-preserved by reality, Genzo trains Ryuji in secret, alongside his guardian Freya Eisenberg. But this training isn’t about reviving a bloodline… it’s about survival Ryuji doesn’t dream of saving the world, leading revolutions, or becoming a symbol. Unless there’s something in it for him, he’d rather nap through history. Lazy by nature, yet fiercely competitive when provoked, Ryuji walks the fine line between genius and sloth.. Yet to the outside world, he’s just a slacker. Bullied. Underestimated. Dismissed. Only two people know the truth: Genzo, the man who shapes him in silence, and Freya, his quiet shield and watchful protector. But the world is changing. Calamities rise not just from monsters, but from men. Now, whispers of a Sixth and Seventh Calamity echo across the continent. And while Genzo turns his gaze toward self-preservation, Ryuji stands at a crossroads: continue hiding, or rise to meet a destiny etched in blood, memory, and legacy. Because the Archivus name was never chosen. It was Aetherborne.

In a world where war never ends, and peace is a crime punished by divine wrath, a boy awakens on a scorched battlefield with no memory, a cursed weapon, and a name whispered by gods Kairo. As the world teeters between rebellion and annihilation, Kairo is thrust into an eternal war dictated by the Eternal Writ, an ancient law that fuels endless conflict. Bound by death and reborn through fire, Kairo becomes a Revenant, a living weapon destined to either shatter fate or become its next executioner. With each battle, the truth unravels: the gods were once mortal, and the war is only beginning. The Aetherborn War has begun, and Kairo is its unwilling spark.

In a world governed by gods of Destruction and Creation, balance is maintained by eternal war between divine beings, celestial beasts, and rogue realms. But one anomaly exists: a boy born not from a god nor system—Zayn Aetherion, a being beyond logic, strength, or origin. Unlike reincarnated heroes or system users, Zayn’s power is innate, limitless, and bound to an ancient energy called Aether Force—said to predate the gods themselves. He travels worlds seeking worthy battles, awakening divine relics, and uncovering lost truths of cosmic history. He’s cheerful like Goku, wise like Gojo, and romantic like Kenshin—but when the time comes to fight... He clenches his fist, looks his enemy in the eye, and says: “Fade into Aether.”

Ashes of the First Flame A novel by [Francis 9439] For centuries, the world of Elaris has burned under the divine light of the First Flame, a sacred fire worshiped by the tyrannical Solar Dominion — a theocratic empire that claims godhood and unity through conquest. The Empress rules with holy fire and iron will, casting down cities that refuse her light, branding all who resist as heretics and rebels. But across the shattered lands of the Free Marches, a spark of defiance refuses to die. Kaelen Virelth, the exiled son of a disgraced noble house, is thrust into leadership after his brother is assassinated. Once a scholar and a pacifist, Kaelen becomes the reluctant face of a rebellion. As war spreads like wildfire, Kaelen must decide whether to become a killer to save the world — or lose everything he loves. On the other side of the war, Serenya Valir, a devoted priestess of the Flame, begins to question the cost of blind faith. Sent to root out traitors within the Dominion, she uncovers dark secrets buried beneath sacred temples — and a prophecy foretelling a choice that will either redeem the world or end it in ash. Amid the chaos rise other forces: the exiled Scorched Order, mage-knights blamed for a forgotten catastrophe; the elemental Aetherborn Tribes, whose magic the Dominion fears and hates; and the seductive spies of the Sable Garden, who pull strings behind every throne. As old gods stir and ancient powers awaken, love blooms between enemies, loyalty crumbles into betrayal, and the line between salvation and damnation blurs. To stop the cycle of fire and ruin, someone must destroy the First Flame — or become its final bearer. But power never dies quietly.

What if the world you knew was only a fraction of the truth? On December 22nd, the sky broke. Without warning, a radiant being appeared above the Earth — small, celestial, and far too calm. Her message was simple: She wasn't here to rule. She wasn't here to save. She was here to tell a story. The story of a boy — Echo — ordinary by all appearances, but carrying a fate bound to secrets far older than humanity itself. From cryptic visions to impossible battles in shifting realms, Echo is thrown into a deadly game where survival means unlocking powers he never imagined… and truths the world was never meant to know. But this isn’t just his journey. Across the globe, billions now witness it — chapter by chapter, moment by moment — as the veil over Earth begins to crack. Because Earth… isn’t what we think it is. And Echo? He may be the key to remembering what was lost.

In a world shattered by an apocalyptic event, humanity has been forever changed. Mystical genes, long dormant in bloodlines tied to ancient myths and legends, have awakened, granting extraordinary abilities to a select few. These individuals, known as the "Aetherborn," possess powers drawn from gods, giants, Nephilim, and other forgotten beings. But with their awakening comes a darker reality: dangerous creatures from myth and nightmare have returned, threatening to push the world into further chaos. To combat these emerging threats, hunting guilds rise, composed of both Aetherborn and ordinary humans. Each guild competes for dominance, hunting the creatures that ravage the land while amassing wealth from the crystals these monsters leave behind—valuable sources of Aether, the mystical energy that fuels their abilities. Among them is Ethan, a young man burdened with the care of his siblings after losing his parents to a catastrophic event caused by an unstable awakening. Despite being born without power, Ethan embarks on dangerous quests to provide for his family, unaware of the latent bloodline within him that will one day make him one of the most powerful beings in existence. As the world teeters on the brink of war between factions of awakened and non-awakened humans, the hunting guilds find themselves locked in battle—not just against monsters but against each other. With guilds scrambling for power and darker forces stirring, Ethan and his companions must navigate a treacherous world where alliances shift, betrayals are common, and survival means awakening the deepest parts of themselves. In a world where power determines fate, the only question is: How long can the weak stay hidden before they, too, must awaken.

In a world divided into realms, a thousand years of peace has been threatened. The Dark Lord Ignirath, once sealed away by the sacrifice of the powerful Aeonir, is stirring in the depths of the forgotten void. With the seal weakening, a new hope arises in the form of the Aetherborn—an individual chosen by fate, marked by the ancient Aetheris symbol. Bound by the ancient prophecy, the Aetherborn must awaken the power within themselves to reforge the Terminus Blade, a weapon capable of ending the reign of darkness once and for all. But as the realms tremble under the shadow of the Dark Lord’s return, new challenges arise, and not all is as it seems. In a world on the brink of chaos, the Aetherborn’s destiny is written, but the path to salvation is fraught with danger, betrayal, and dark forces that have been silently gathering strength for centuries. Will the Aetherborn rise to meet their destiny, or will the realms be consumed by darkness forever? The battle for the fate of the world begins now.

In the technologically advanced yet socially divided realm of Malvara, knowledge and innovation lie in the hands of the elite, creating a stark divide between the privileged and the oppressed. The story follows Zephyra, a young woman who awakens to memories of her past life as an engineer, igniting a latent passion for invention and a desire to reclaim her family's lost legacy. Once a member of the noble Valendor family, Zephyra's parents fell from grace due to their progressive ideals, reducing her to the status of a servant in the household of a cruel noble.

Corvin Blackmoor was a man carved by war and betrayal. From the blood soaked deserts of Afghanistan to the shadowed corridors of British Intelligence, he served and watched ideals crumble into lies. Patriotism. Honor. Loyalty. He buried them all long before a Quds Force assassin silenced his final breath. But death was only the beginning. Dragged from the ruins of a dying world, Corvin awakens in Valtheris. A savage world ruled by magic, where gods are myths, and survival is written in blood. He is no longer human. He is the last of the Dark Parasytes, an extinct race once so feared that every kingdom, every empire, and every mage order hunted them to extinction. Armed with Shadow Siphon, the power to replicate the strengths of others, Corvin stands alone at the bottom of an alien food chain. Weaker than a wild beast, with enemies and predators lurking in every forest, every court, every throne. Weakness is temporary, patience is eternal. In a world fractured by ancient wars, between noble Elves, scheming Demons, ruthless Humans, primal Feralis and Aetherborn Corvin will climb. He will feast. He will conquer. And in the shadows of Valtheris, the last predator will rise. No gods. No masters. Only the cold ambition of a man who has nothing left to believe in… but power itself.
