Barnaby Owl

From the series of A Tale of Blades & Blood, The Chronicles of Winter & Spring go deep into the roots of the known world. The world of winter may fall with the rise of spring, but it will return another day. Witness the rich history, drama, wars, and politics that has shaped the kingdom of the north. In the world of Avalion, kings are everywhere- in every corner, and under every arc than you see. Beyond the vast north lives the goats of House Ballister, forged since the dawn of man and now kings of the four regions. Beyond the fruitful east stands the owls of House Strix, who rule The Spire with an iron fist and are the richest of all houses. Deep in the south lives the loyal ravens of House Ravenhan, who were given honor and pride by those they serve. Beyond the west stands the builders and warriors of House Gryphith, tied to the crown by marriage and builders of great constructions. Though kings are remembered in history, much of what we know comes from the bards that sing their songs amongst the feasts of future lords and ladies. From the written records of scribes and the lyres of singers, let us witness none but one thing-- A Song of Kings.

Oswin Durnvale, a weary fast-food worker from modern-day Earth, never expected his life to end so abruptly—nor to begin anew in the body of Fray Nightshade, a somewhat wealthy but reclusive young man in a world reminiscent of early modern Europe. Struggling to adjust, Oswin finds himself in a world on the brink of crisis. As Oswin navigates this unfamiliar world, he stumbles upon a forgotten part of Fray’s inheritance—an old violin and a book of hymns dedicated to the Water Spirits. Driven by nostalgia for his past as a musician, he plays the melodies, unknowingly invoking a force beyond human understanding. To his shock, the spirits answer. Magic is real in this world, but it comes at a cost. Power is not given freely, and the more Oswin demands, the greater the strain on his body and mind. With each song, he inches closer to the unknown, toeing the line between a gift and a curse.

The nightmares started without warning. At first, they were fleeting—a whisper in the dark, a shadow at the edge of vision. But then the dreams bled into reality. The world twisted. Time fractured. And at the center of it all… was the owl.

In 2025 Shanghai, Zhao Ming, a 48-year-old clerk, stumbles into a microscopic parallel world during his zodiac year. Amid unknown threats and infection risks, his coke becomes a lifesaving "potion." He builds a multicultural stronghold in an abandoned LA town, trading supplies and secretly deploying cola syrup, AI, and nuclear tech against virus threats. The story celebrates cultural friction as a source of joy, echoing nostalgic debates from 1990s western world, where friends bonded over beer, history, and folklore. A whimsical "Toad-mouthed Owl" spouting idioms adds humor, while time-travel themes bridge past camaraderie and speculative futures. Ultimately, resilience thrives not in division but in shared laughter and resourceful reinvention.

By chance, Ni Moqiang goes to Dark Rose Pub on her birthday and meets Ren Jingdong there. At this time, she is wearing a glittering halter dress, looking sexy and charming, completely different from her usual image. Under the influence of alcohol, Ni Moqiang has an intimate relationship with Ren Jingdong. But when she wakes up the next day, Ni Moqiang finds herself in a strange place, lying beside her boss Ren Jingdong. Panicked, she chooses to flee. After returning home, Ni Moqiang faces numerous family crises. Her stepmother, Qi Youling, mocks her coldly, and her father flies into a rage when he discovers the hickey on her neck, causing family conflicts to intensify instantly.

Yang Qiwei, her stepmother's lover, often comes to make trouble at the door, and Ni Moqiang's life is plunged into endless darkness. Under great pain and pressure, she chooses to disappear and has no news ever since. After Ni Moqiang's disappearance, Ren Jingdong realizes her importance to him. He searches everywhere but finds nothing. During Ni Moqiang's disappearance, she is saved by the Bai family.

In this chaos, Ren Jingdong finally confirms that Bai Youruo is Ni Moqiang, and the Bai family has to tell the whole story of that year.

After being imprisoned in the basement by her mother for ten years, she ended her cruel and tragic life in death when they forced her to hand over the key to the hidden treasure. Getting reborn in her teenage years, she woke up in the bed of that terrible and powerful man. This time, she must take revenge on her enemy, and now she must live. Having nicknamed 'The Loli of The East', this young lady broke through the heavily fortified private prison and managed to snatch the key that the man had been searching for as she escaped into the forest. "Woman, you've successfully attracted my attention." This man, who appeared to be the CEO of a business empire on the surface but was the godfather of the largest mafia, carried a military-tier bag and entered the forest. He felt that the Loli of The East possessed a fatal attraction. She was not a weak woman. On the contrary, she was stronger than most men in the world. Shen knew that the man in front of her was the Owl King. He was all-powerful, cold, and domineering, yet he was persistent towards her. Why did this man plan to do after chasing after her from outside the country into the country, even though she avoided him like the plague? Shen, "Stay away from me, will you?" Yan, "Baby, do you think it's possible?" She was the one and only daughter of the wealthy Shen family. She was the hope of the Shen family. Her battlefield was not within the bounds of a harem, nor was her battlefield centered around a man like a parasitic flower that clung onto her host. Her horizon did not look like that, and it should not be. Therefore, even if Yan built her a magnificent golden house, it would not be able to stop her heart that yearned to soar in the sky.

Though the sender remains anonymous, Leek’s mind immediately goes to his rival, Kael, the ambitious heir of the Woo Lee clan. Kael has long sought to undermine him, and claiming the heiress would give him the leverage he needs to bring the V-clan to its knees.

The path to ultimate power lies not in fear or hate, but in desire, a dangerous force born from their conflict. This is the story of those who walk the line between fear and hate, seeking to harness the power of desire, a force that can both destroy and create. But Would you believe me if I say the origin of these abilities isn't from god but a lonely reader?

The forest was quiet, and everything was still. The gentle northern wind sweeping through the trees and dried leaves brought nothing but a sense of foreboding and despair as Raphael crawled into his cave and huddled against the dirt stained walls. Stifling the moan of anguish that escaped his mouth, he pressed hard on the cut below his ribs. The blood stopped flowing briefly, as he dug some sticky clay from underneath the roots of the oak tree and applied it to his injury. It stopped the blood flow instantly. He was aware of the giant slash across his back, but he was too exhausted to attend to it. 'Later' he thought to himself, leaning back as he shut his eyes. He was lucky to have escaped with his life. "They will pay for this. I will get my revenge soon enough," he muttered to himself as the owl perched on the branch of the oak tree above hooted ominously. He had become his neighbour for the past few weeks, his hooting always reminding him that he may not be the only living thing in the forest. Other days, the silence was impregnable, the eerie quiet sending chills down his spine. As he slowly started to slip into unconsciousness, he heard a dull thud on the dirt outside the cave, too faint for a normal person to hear. But Raphael was no ordinary person. Crouching behind the roots of the tree, he waited patiently as the sniffing began. He made a silent prayer, to no one in particular as he saw the red eyes right outside his cave. They locked eyes with each other, and the enormous wolf bared his canines at him, before howling into the night. All around the forest, several other howls answered, as the earth began to tremble under the numerous paws thundering above it. 'Here we go again,' he thought to himself.

"Restart is a story set in 2098, where the world is on the verge of collapse. Daven, the son of the well-known scientist Dr. Emit Armstrong, will try to stop his father's plans for the Great Restart."

Melford is a wizard-in-training with zero talent and far too much enthusiasm. When he accidentally turns his own pet dragon into a toaster and his mentor's favorite slippers mysteriously grow legs and walk away, Melford gets sent on a "simple" mission to fetch a magical flower said to grant immense wisdom. Predictably, being Melford, things go horribly awry. He manages to turn the whole of the Enchanted Forest into one big bubble, inadvertently convinces a talking owl he's some famous chef, and-oh yeah-the flower he's supposed to pick? It's actually some living, sarcastic plant that insults him at every turn. But Melford doesn't give up, mostly because he's too thick-headed to realize just how bad things are.

A Note from Barnaby Twiddlepot Dear Reader, Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Barnaby Twiddlepot—inventor, dreamer, and, some might say, the architect of one of the most infamous culinary catastrophes in history: The Great Spaghetti Incident. It is a tale as tangled and twisted as the spaghetti it spawned, and I feel both duty-bound and curiously delighted to tell you my side of the story. This book is not merely an account of the absurd events that unfolded in Flipsville that fateful summer. No, it is a testament to ambition gone awry, to the sheer unpredictability of invention, and to the fragile boundary between genius and madness. What began as an innocent attempt to revolutionize dinner parties ended with an entire town engulfed in a wave of pasta-shaped pandemonium. Through these pages, you will witness my humble beginnings, the birth of the Spaghettifier, and the escalating chaos that turned my quaint little backyard laboratory into ground zero for an unprecedented incident. You will laugh, you will cringe, and perhaps you will even find yourself questioning your next plate of spaghetti. This is not merely my story. It is the story of a town, a machine, and a series of events that would forever etch the name Flipsville into the annals of culinary history. I have done my best to recount the events faithfully, but let me assure you, the truth is stranger than any fiction I could ever concoct. So, prepare yourself, dear reader, for a journey into the absurd. As you turn these pages, remember: no noodle is ever just a noodle, and sometimes, the simplest ideas can spiral completely out of control. Bon appétit... and good luck. Yours in tangled ambition, Barnaby Twiddlepot Inventor, accidental calamity maker, and reluctant chronicler of the Great Spaghetti Incident.

Synopsis

In the heart of the bustling city, nestled amidst towering skyscrapers, lay a corporate office where two familiar souls were destined to cross paths once more. Lily and Ethan, childhood friends who shared giggles on the playground and secrets in the library, had drifted apart after middle school. But fate had different plans for them. In the bustling corporate world, Lily, a senior employee known for her strict demeanor and impeccable work ethic, reigns with an iron fist. Her dedication and no-nonsense attitude have earned her respect and fear among her juniors, who steer clear of her path to avoid her sharp scrutiny. However, there's one exception to this rule – Ethan, a new junior who happens to be an old friend from her school days. Ethan's presence breaks through Lily's self-imposed barriers. He's transformed from the quiet boy she once knew into a vibrant, outgoing man who wears a perpetual smile. He's quick to help, warm to everyone, and his positivity seems boundless. While others might be intimidated by Lily, Ethan navigates her formidable exterior with ease, thanks to their shared history. As Ethan's unwavering cheerfulness fills the office, Lily can't help but feel a pang of jealousy. She watches as he effortlessly garners the admiration of their colleagues and chips away at her carefully cultivated reputation. His ability to maintain such happiness in the face of stress and pressure perplexes her, and a sense of rivalry takes root. The more Lily observes Ethan's interactions, the more her annoyance deepens. She becomes fixated on his seemingly perpetual joy, believing it to be a facade that undermines her own meticulous approach. As her animosity towards his positivity grows, she finds herself caught in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Memories of their past friendship only intensify her internal struggle.

[MATURE CONTENTS, STRICTLY 18+ RATED, PREJUDICE, RACISM INJUSTICE, BL] The allure of dangerous attractions refused to be neglected, and distractions chosen to be explored can lead one into harmful patterns, entrapping him in cycles of addiction, difficult to escape. —---- In the turbulent times of the 1960s, Tommy Jones set off from his small town in Kentucky to Tennessee, instructed by his mother and the turns of life to retrieve his father's possessions, his rightful inheritance as heir to Barnaby Jones, as he was made to believe by his mother. Being denied his inheritance by his 'father's' friend, he was put to the test: "Show me you're more than just a colored kid claiming a white man's legacy. Get good grades, demonstrate your worth, and then we'll discuss your father's properties." Now, situated among all whites and being the only black student, Tommy was mocked. That's a lie! You can't be the son of a white man, talk more Sir Barnaby Jones. You're...a Negro. It's not possible! How could he get the privilege to join the great Shan'titon High School? He doesn't belong here! Just look at his skin sticking out like a sore thumb—peewww! Tommy was better off being poor yet happy with his fellow street brothers at home in Kentucky than being here among rich white kids who had nothing good to say to him. Well, except for… for one Benjamin Sherlock! Benjamin Sherlock, the devil son of a reputable man of the city, is a top senior in Shan'titon High, a gem of the school, the hottest of the school, yet the most vile! He cares less about anyone, he's known for his nasty self, wickedness, and rudeness! But does he give a damn? No! Tommy gets to know that he needs this guy to successfully get through this school, for protection and all. What's more, this guy seems to know his 'father' Barnaby Jones! He could really be of good help, but as they say, distractions and attractions can be very disadvantageous. Tommy is stuck in an entrapping master (Head Honcho) and servant (Host) relationship with Benjamin, standing as the epitome of pleasure, the giver of bittersweet addiction, and the full emblem of intimacy and lust! Tommy is caught up in this distraction in human form, and his actions stand as an attraction. Could this lead to love, or will it die as just a game? Benjamin: "Tommy Lee, the name fits you like a glove." Tommy: "How'd you figure that out, huh? That that's my whole first name, man?" Benjamin: "I know a thing or two, Kitten." Benjamin knows something Tommy should not know—about his father, about his past, his identity, and about his birth. And he is willing to hide it, or could he? Could he when his intentions are being doubted and he is being put to the test? Benjamin: "Kitty cat." Tommy: "Yeah, man?" Benjamin: "Let's say, just saying, Barnaby Jones isn't your old man. What then?" Tommy: "Lawdy, how can that be? Hahaha! If it ain't him, then who in the world would be my old man?" Benjamin: "A man with a reputation bigger than the whole dadgum state of Tennessee and Kentucky combined. Just sayin'.” (Update Time is irregular currently until further notice 2 - 5 chapters daily) A/N: Send A Message Through Reviews And Comments.

She brought harmony and healing, soothing the hearts of those in turmoil and restoring balance to the land. • Pyra, the Phoenix of Rebirth, burned with an eternal flame, his fiery plumage a beacon of renewal and transformation. From the ashes of destruction, he rose again and again, a testament to the power of resilience and the promise of a new beginning.
