After arriving in Japan, I became a high school student named Kamiyagawa. Looking around— Hanako crouched in the bathroom, waiting for someone to knock on the door; the Split-Mouth Woman wandered the streets with scissors in hand; Miss Mary's deathly calls echoed incessantly; the wails and barks in Inunaki Village never ceased; the Ubume searched for her long-dead child; the Aoandon smiled, enticing passersby to play with the lanterns of a hundred demons… In a crumbling world rampant with sinister tales and malevolent spirits, Kamiyagawa set a small goal for himself: "Defeat all the demons and monsters, and become the supreme ruler of ghosts and deities."

Betrayal is a wound that every man has felt, I wrote this story to show how it can make a man strong. "What is the difference between a hero, a villain and a coward? A hero uses his sword to protect people A villain uses people to protect his sword Both are better than a coward A coward has no sword, and uses empty words to protect his life A sword is not just a man's weapon, it is a man's ambition, and without ambition, a man is merely a coward. In order to be a hero or a villain a man must have ambition. The difference between the two is where that ambition lies." -The Dark Prince In 17th century France, the rich nobles control the world with a magic system called "Artifacts". Prince an innocent hearted prince of the Bourbon Kingdom, one day has his life thrown into chaos by betrayal, and inherits an "Artifact" that is the ancient spirit of "The Dark King". Through misfortune after misfortune, Prince eventually loses everything and starts his life over without a royal name. Prince vows to make his way back to the top hiding amongst the everyday people of France. Prince is a Japanese style light novel based on Machiavelli’s classic "The Prince". Although this work takes influence from it, the story, quotes, and characters are all completely original. It is mostly the concept of good and evil that is borrowed from Machiavelli.

“My Existence is a bully to the word Existence itself." Quote from Patrick. Patrick, a regular arrogant kid with extremely attractive looks and a high IQ, lived in the alternate version of Earth. But in this alternate Earth, there were awakened humans who possessed abilities beyond the scope of human knowledge. Yet, despite living in an awakened world, Patrick didn't awaken any ability.

As the author of this book I should give a fair warning: the first chapters are a scam!! Okay, let me explain. The character that you most likely think is the protagonist, is not the protagonist. Why? Honestly, idk, I just felt like doing it. Makes the story feel more realistic and approachable because every character is worth something. The story follows a male lead, Ju Min-Jung, who at one point in his life was a normal middle-aged man from Korea. He gets transmigrated to a world called Einar as Lychipher Klein in which becoming quote-unquote a "god", is not just possible, but relatively common. Years have gone by in a flash and Lychipher has enjoyed a simple and laid-back life, going by the nickname of Whiskey. The story starts when a contracted guild summons the lovecraftian inspired eldritch entity known as Dietrich, which fragmented itself into several variants born from chosen women. The fragments each have the distinct feature of white hair and can be released when the variant is killed. When all the variants are killed each fragment will be fused allowing Dietrich to form in Einar. This quickly escalates into family feuds, mystery, mystism and the occult. Questions emerge perpetually the instant one is answered, mysterious forces are at work pulling the strings behind closed curtains and fate seems to be the greatest for of all.... What to expect: Firstly is the world of Einar. It's a world entirely fictional so don't try to wrap your head around the timeline because I honestly just smashed several themes that I liked together. Originally, I chose for late 16th century baroque and renaissance, but later I also added elements of the western victorian era, the wild west and more. Now the next thing to expect is probably not something you'll appreciate much, and that is slow pacing. I know, I know —you're probably screaming "whyyy!?". But it's best for the story to play out the way it should, ya' know- instead of rushing it. Besides, going for a mysterious factor demands slow pacing because otherwise the mystery is short-lived.

Sora was once a normal kid. After his life changed from an incident his life went downhill up until the moment of his death. some random dude named Steven Magee once said, “true freedom is achieved through death.” This quote applied to Sora better than most would have expected… or so you would think.

The fic will not have Yaoi or any NTR, if I do ramance sex scenes would only be implied since I don’t want to loose focus on the actual plot like the many horny writers out there do. For that same reason there will not be any harem since writers who write harem fics tend to focus more on harem building than they do on the actual plot or growth of non female side characters. ____ last note: This isn’t my first attempt at writing a fanfiction but the first fanfiction I have decided to try and commit to. I can’t make any promises on quality but rest assured the only reason I haven’t wrote before is because I care about the quality. most of my issues with writing stem from overthinking something or trying to follow too close to cannon. my goal for the story is break both of those habits. try not to flame me too much in the comments.

The Lantern of Lost Wishes Deep in the heart of Luminwood Forest, where the air hums with secrets and fireflies weave trails of forgotten dreams, there is a legend of an ancient lantern that can grant lost wishes. No one knows who made it or why, but those who go looking for it rarely find their way back. For Elyra, the lantern is more than a story. It’s a chance. Haunted by a past she can’t change and a future slipping through her fingers, Elyra sets out to find the lantern, clutching nothing but a faded map and a fragile hope. But the forest is alive. It shifts and listens. Creatures of shadow, known as the Wraithbound, follow her every move, feeding on the desperate wishes of others. Elyra’s only ally is a mysterious stranger with golden eyes and a grin that hides more than it reveals. He’s cursed, dangerous, and far too familiar with the forest’s tricks—and yet, Elyra can’t shake the feeling that he’s the only one who truly understands her. With every step deeper into the woods, Elyra discovers that wishes are never free, and some are lost for a reason. The closer she gets to the lantern, the heavier the cost becomes—secrets unravel, alliances shatter, and the forest itself begins to turn on her. Elyra must decide how far she’s willing to go to reclaim what she’s lost and whether some dreams are better left untouched. Because in the Luminwood, every wish carries a price, and once the lantern’s light finds you, it’s impossible to turn back. A story of longing, sacrifice, and the magic we hold onto when all else fades, The Lantern of Lost Wishes is a journey into a world where dreams flicker like fireflies, and hope is both a blessing and a curse.

"BASED ON HISTORY" In a world governed by wealth, ambition, and illusion, young Diogenes of Sinope begins a life-altering journey in pursuit of truth. After a scandal involving his father tarnishes his family’s name, Diogenes flees to Athens, where he encounters the enigmatic philosopher Antisthenes. Under his guidance, Diogenes begins to strip away the masks society demands he wear and confronts the uncomfortable truths hidden within himself and the world around him. Through vivid encounters with merchants, beggars, politicians, and philosophers, Diogenes challenges the values of his time, wielding wit and irreverence as his weapons. His journey is marked by struggles to reconcile his disdain for materialism with his lingering fears, his defiance of authority with his longing for purpose, and his relentless pursuit of freedom with the cost of alienation. As he grows from a questioning student into a sharp-tongued cynic, Diogenes sets out to illuminate the lies that enslave humanity—even if it means walking alone through the shadows. With every step, he reshapes what it means to live a virtuous life, leaving a legacy that will echo through the annals of philosophy. "The Lantern Bearer" is a richly detailed and introspective novel that explores the boundaries of freedom, the nature of truth, and the courage required to live authentically. Through Diogenes’ story, it asks timeless questions: What is the cost of honesty in a world of deception? And is freedom worth it?. 35 new chs/week

WSA 2025 Entry What can one do against inevitability? Fate? Circumstances out of one’s control? The answer to that, for a human, is not all that much.
