Shattered Stone Talisman

One thing Manziholet could not tolerate, sort of like ignorance or getting punched in the liver, was being ordinary. Ordinary was what failure called itself to feel better. Quite fortunately, then, that his life was anything but. For starters, his mother loved him so much, she had gladly sent him on death missions over dinner. It was her idea of effective motherhood, and Manziholet respected her for it, as he did with his father and twin brother who had taken a strategic separation from the family for the greater good. Meanwhile, both the Church and the government were preparing to wrestle for dominance, even though the world had yet to recover from the Ternary Strife – a conflict that had shattered entire planets and claimed trillions of lives. Presumably, they were very eager to extend the long line of ‘oops’ that was humanity’s history. To top it all off, seraphs and daemons were eyeing to once again invade the material world, tearing open the fabric of reality itself, and unleashing their immense power upon all existence. They might find allies among the downtrodden of humanity, who were very eager to burn the old system down and dance on its ashes. In the center of all was Manziholet himself, a Seraphist destined for greatness, the inheritor of an ancient plan, arguably a genius and definitely a cheater and liar with a robust disdain for authority in all its forms. As history shifted, Manziholet stood as the harbinger of its next great leap – one that would be his to control.

Will Sirt become a savior, or will he shatter under the weight of a realm already crumbling?

[Rewinding] In a world where each moment hangs by a thread and every second could be her last, Juno Luminara has discovered a horrifying gift—the ability to manipulate the fabric of time. But what seems like salvation is a double-edged curse, bringing her to her own deaths. Each death is real, leaving her scarred with the knowledge of lives unlived and choices unmade. Only she remembers every brutal ending, every gruesome failure. And with every use of her power, the weight of reality presses harder, like an unseen force that’s waiting to crush her under its clockwork inevitability. The realms teeters on the edge of collapse, threatened by the encroaching Void, a force of pure entropy devouring space, time, and sanity itself. Its monstrous rifts open without warning, twisting streets into nightmares where creatures born from forgotten futures stalk anyone unlucky enough to wander too close. Chosen as the Timekeeper, Juno is forced into a deadly game of survival, where one mistake can spiral into endless loops of despair. But she’s not just running from monsters—there are those who know what she can do, and they will stop at nothing to steal her power, even if it means trapping her in an eternal rewind. As she- [System overload] [REDACTED] [Time Skip Initializing] disappears into realms and timelines. With every use of her ability, Juno inches closer to madness, questioning how many times she can watch herself die before she loses what little humanity she has left. Time is both a lifeline and a labyrinth, and the deeper she goes, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real. As the Void tightens its grip on reality, Juno must untangle the twisted threads of fate, confront enigmatic enemies who bend time as easily as she does, and unlock the secrets of her own existence—before her mind fractures, and she becomes just another forgotten anomaly in the collapsing timeline. Her only weapons are her ingenuity, grit, and a system that responds to her every action but reveals as much danger as it does opportunity. One wrong move can doom an entire future; one right step can rewrite reality itself. Every ally is a potential betrayer. Every enemy hides a clue. And in the end, Juno’s biggest enemy may be time itself. "This timekeeper... How much longer do you think you can run from fate? Do you really believe you can cheat death forever?" [System failing...] [Reality restart commencing] With the fabric of existence unraveling, Juno must decide: will she surrender to inevitability, or break free from the cycle to forge her own future? The clock is ticking. And she’s running out of time.

To Corvina, half a century alive practicing magic and experimenting with ingredients in the vastness of the world was obvious; she was a Witch, after all, and it was her job to pioneer new avenues of magic and alchemy so that the rest of the world might enjoy a better life going forwards. Power came to her naturally, her fifty years of life having been devoted to acquiring it, and while she very much enjoyed the solitude of being a Witch, things change when someone interesting pops into her life all of a sudden. A weird, peculiar woman about half her age, saying things that don't make sense, doing things and acting in ways that seemed far too... practiced to simply be the mistakes that she claims they are; this woman caught Corvina's interest, especially since she was a hopeful woman with paltry skills in magic attempting to become a Witch. And yet where others found her to be merely a intriguing yet worthless prospect, Corvina saw something in her, something that she wasn't entirely aware would spark into something that would change her life forever. This is going to be a romance between a futanari (Corvina) and a woman, with quite a fair amount of smut eventually when everything has reached that point between them; there will be no PoV switches as I want to show everything from the older, more 'set' character compared to the fascinating and mysterious woman she meets. Fantasy, more about character interaction than action, slice of life between two interesting characters, and even more generic yet comforting chapters to read (hopefully) daily... If you like Futa on Female, Yuri, Fantasy and a good story, then please come on in and read~!

When Kael Drayth awakens in a broken world governed by a glitching System, survival becomes his only priority. He doesn’t remember how he got here, but one thing is clear: this isn’t just a game—it’s a death trap where the rules are fragmenting as fast as the reality around him. Assigned the hybrid class Edgeweaver, Kael discovers his abilities are as unstable as the System itself. Shadow-based powers grant him versatility but at a cost: every skill he uses chips away at his health, and every choice pushes him deeper into danger. The System is failing. Nodes, the anchors of this world, are shattering, spawning corrupted creatures, and unleashing chaos across the land. Kael’s only chance of survival is to restore the Nodes while navigating treacherous dungeons, unlocking powerful skills, and forming fragile alliances with sentient NPCs and players—each with their own hidden agendas. But the deeper Kael delves into this broken reality, the more questions arise. Why was he brought here? What is causing the System’s collapse? And who—or what—is the shadowy force pulling the strings behind the scenes? In a world where progress isn’t just survival but the key to reality itself, Kael must outwit deadly foes, master his unstable powers, and rise through the chaos of a fractured system. But every victory comes at a cost, and the line between savior and destroyer is razor-thin. Level up. Adapt. Ascend. Or be consumed by the collapse.

"What if I'm more broken than you realize? What if I'm too messed up for you?" My voice cracked as I looked up at him with tears brimming my lashes. "What if my world is too crazy for you, Dorado?

I'm scared you'll turn your back on me like everyone else. I'm scared I'll lose you like I do everyone else."
