From The Embers Aly Martinez

Lucas, a brilliant yet self-absorbed young man, has always considered himself the superior force. His latest challenge? To prove his intellect and manipulate the people around him — including Ember, a quietly defiant soul caught between admiration and resentment for him. With emotions tightly bound by complicated feelings and a shared past, will they break free from the cage they've created for each other, or will they remain trapped in a dangerous game of almost — almost love, almost understanding, almost freedom? (Lucas Crawford was inspired by the character of the same name by Hana )

In a world long shattered by war, Alina awakens from death—preserved, reanimated, and bound to a fate she never chose. Once a normal girl from a small village, she is now something else, something caught between life and death. Under the guidance of the enigmatic necromancer Thorne, Alina undergoes an agonizing yet transformative process, her body reshaped by ancient magic and forbidden science. As she struggles to reclaim her humanity, she is thrust into a world she no longer recognizes—ruined cities, desperate survivors, and the eerie march of the undead who serve as tools rather than terrors. With each revelation, she learns the horrifying truth. Yet, amidst the decay, hope lingers.

'Am I hallucinating? Am I dying?' Marx thought. Perhaps he was seeing visions because he was feverish, and his head ached from the contusions he suffered during the crash. He blinked, but the vision was still there. He saw a beautiful woman fully naked on the edge of the other side of the spring. Her slightly wavy hair with the color of copper cascaded freely down her slim waist. She raised her arms and dived cleanly into the water. Marx waited, but after some time, she did not emerge. Marx chuckled. How could a woman be in a jungle in the middle of nowhere?" He heard a growl from behind him, and before he could react, a big tiger pounced on him. The last thing he remembered was seeing four canines closing in and hearing a loud female voice shouting, "Khalil, stop!" … Discover how Amaya, who grew up in the wild, coped with the pressure and challenges of returning to the civilized world. Accompany her on her journey to find love, acceptance, and recognition in the treacherous human world of betrayal and greed. *** The book cover is not mine. It is a photo of one of the most beautiful actresses in my country. *** Jan 2025. I finally had the chance to upload the characters' avatars. I hope you will love Amaya, Marx, and Ibrahim just as I loved bringing them to life.

This red dragon came from the vast wilderness, coveting all the powers of the world. He has held countless titles: Mountain Fury, Purgatorial Calamity, Red Emperor, Ember Dragon… The world trembles under the shadow of the great dragon.

In the empire he established, wyverns roar, cannon fire resounds, steel behemoths appear in the sky and on the earth, and disasters from other worlds run rampant. “Submit, or die.” Cassius spread his sky-shading wings, looking down upon the trembling humans, elves, and dwarves beneath him, and spoke thus. ……… A story of a red dragon with a built-in player template conquering, ruling, and transforming another world.

Reborn into a medieval-like continent as the son of a baron, Richard has been trying to understand this world through science since birth. After hearing rumors about wizards, he sets out to explore this unknown mystery step by step. Bad news: The rumors about werewolves are false. Good news: There are indeed fire bears near the castle! Better news: Loren's Human Diary is already stirring with excitement! “In all the realms of existence, there exists a principle underlying all things.” Richard, quill in hand, fervently inscribed upon papyrus, “Though sorcery may appear to defy the tenets of scientific understanding, once one comprehends the purest principle of truth, the secrets concealed therein become manifest. Each world harbors its own enigmas, as well as its own science, which remains elusive to the minds of many, thus they term it sorcery. And I am the wizard who unveils these secrets—Wizard The Modern.”

“I don't like judging people, but sometimes I can't help it. I don't like talking behind people's backs, but sometimes I do. I just want to live a good life, but sometimes I can't.” Love, Betrayal, Blood, but not Hatred. Only cold revenge, and a son to complete the family. "D" Section, a nonexistent military unit. "D" for dark, "D" for depth, "D"... for death. It demanded no attachment, and Daemon sacrificed love for it. Years later, the death of his teammates made him feel that he had done enough for the country, so he came back to the city he grew in. But can what has been forsaken be gained back? Because now Evelyn, the one to have breathed vitality in his numb, orphaned heart, had her own life, and a little boy calling her mother. And while he left his life full of dead bodies behind, did that life really let him go? From the ashes, will it love or... ? _ _ _ First draft of characters image on my discord, a channel for fans to get together: https://discord.com/invite/C86EJvCJdd Comment and review, don't forget.

In the fractured realm of **Everburn Labyrinth**, where ash falls like snow and forgotten gods whisper through cursed bloodlines, **Seryn Octavius**—the last heir of the soul-devouring **Emberdirge Dynasty**—barters memories for power. His family’s ancestral curse binds him to a grim truth: every drop of alchemical elixir he brews erases a fragment of his past. But when his exiled mentor, **Lady Eluinora**, is exposed as a traitor who sold his clan to the God of Oblivion, Seryn’s quest for vengeance unravels a millennia-old conspiracy: the very curses that cripple the ancient dynasties are shards of a slain primordial deity, and *he* is the crucible to resurrect it. To survive, Seryn must master the forbidden **Ashborne Alchemy**, turning his family’s funeral rites into weapons—distilling grief into corrosive mists, forging vows into chainblades, and weaponizing his own decaying soul. Allies become liabilities: a mechanized orc warrior whose heart ticks toward self-destruction, a moon-cursed assassin hunting her reflection, and Eluinora herself, whose lies may hold the only key to salvation. As the **Clockwork Throne** awakronsume cities into slag and the **Thousand-Eyed Abyss** hungers for his lineage, Seryn faces an impossible choice: embrace the erosion of his humanity to become the realm’s destroyer, or shatter the alchemical laws of the universe—and with them, every soul he vowed to protect

Surrounded by people who could use magic as naturally as breathing, who wouldn't want to do the same? The girl from the palace certainly wants to. And with the history of the ones around her, becoming capable of doing so was not hard to imagine. At least, that's what she thought with the information she had. But some things are rather difficult to imagine even with a child’s mind.

I'm not sure exactly where this story will go, but if you want a story that isn't one of those harem, power fantasy type stories, then you've come to the right place. The only hope I have is to bring a story to life; not just about fireballs and whatnot, but also about the life, scenery, and people of a fantasy world. Idk if that sounds cliche, but that's the general idea I have for this story. I'll modify that statement to better explain this whole shebang as we move along. I'll also be developing the world, too; it'd be pretty awesome to have something on the side, like a bestiary type list of creatures and plants and materials, people, cultures, and whatnot--something along the lines of a fictional 'The Travels' by Marco Polo. My minimum word count per chapter is around 1,200 words. Of course, word count will vary between chapters, but 1,200 is just the minimum I've created for myself. That number will probably grow as my writing skills develop and I find my 'writing voice'. This is a complete passion project I've started again in the midst of a very busy time of my life; I can't promise any scheduling, but nonetheless, I think it'll be a fun ride for all of us, if a bit bumpy lol. Thank you for taking the time to check out my book! I hope you enjoy it :)
