Abandoned in fantasy world, I will change destiny

Kael von Thurad, once a master architect in the bustling heart of a world far removed from this one, finds himself reborn in a strange and untamed land after a twist of fate. His former life, his identity, all of it stripped away, leaving him with little but his wits and a mysterious artifact—a so-called "Empty Lot," a simple name for an item that holds the power to reshape reality itself. With nothing but raw determination and the visions in his mind, Kael begins his work, crafting a small floating village out of wood, stone, and water. It is a humble beginning, a far cry from the towering structures he once designed, but the village is his, and it floats above the wilds like a solitary island in a sea of danger. The land beneath him is unforgiving, a place where survival is earned with blood and toil, but Kael is no stranger to hard work. As he gathers resources from the land and bends the forces of nature to his will, Kael begins to expand his creation. The village grows, passing through stages of technology that mirror the evolution of civilization itself. From the simplicity of steam-powered mechanisms to the complexity of advanced machinery, each upgrade brings him closer to the vision that haunts his dreams—a modern, interdimensional floating city, a marvel of architecture that defies the very laws of nature. But Kael does not work alone. He breathes life into the Seraphs, androids and golems of his own design, constructed from the very materials of the earth. These silent guardians maintain and upgrade the city, their glowing eyes reflecting the light of progress as they carry out his will. They are more than mere tools; they are extensions of his mind, manifestations of his relentless drive to create and conquer. Through countless trials, Kael’s floating village transforms, rising from the dirt and stone of its beginnings to become a sprawling metropolis, a city that floats above the world and beyond it. It is a city of wonders, a place where the boundaries of reality blur, and the impossible becomes possible. Yet, beneath the surface of his grand design, Kael wrestles with the forces that govern this strange new reality. The land is not his to command, and the powers that be watch him with interest and suspicion. But Kael is a man of vision, a builder of dreams, and he will not be deterred. His floating city becomes not just a refuge, but a testament to his will, a defiance of the natural order that seeks to contain him. Kael von Thurad’s story is one of transformation, a tale of creation born from destruction. It is a journey through the dark and unknown, where imagination holds the power to reshape worlds, and where a man can rise from the ashes of his past to build something truly extraordinary.

Echoes from the Eternal

Earth, 1957. In a secluded and forgotten corner of the world, a being unlike any other is born — an extraordinary hybrid of bear and human. Hidden from the world, he is raised in secret by a woman who becomes his teacher, his guide, and his only family. From her, he learns the ways of humanity: language, knowledge, and emotions. His mind grows rapidly, far surpassing human intellect, and his strength is unmatched. But peace is fleeting. Their sanctuary is discovered by government forces. In the chaos that follows, he protects the woman, giving her a chance to escape. Overwhelmed by his growing instincts and the violence within him, he makes a choice. Fearing he might one day hurt her, he distances himself from her. He leaves. She disappears into the world of humans, while he is left with only the wilderness as his refuge. Alone and hunted, he vanishes into the depths of nature. Time passes, and with it, he forgets. His mind, once sharp and brilliant, is dulled by instinct. He forgets what it means to be human. One day, fate calls him back. While wandering the forest, he witnesses an attack — a wild bear mauling a man. Something stirs within him. Memories. Instincts. He intervenes. He fights. He kills. The man, paralyzed by fear, watches in disbelief. But then, something impossible happens. The hybrid speaks. His voice, rough and broken, echoes through the forest. The man collapses in shock. But this is only the beginning. Unknown to him, he is not the only one of his kind. The truth of his origins is tied to beings far older than humanity. They created him. They watch him. And they have plans for him. His journey will span centuries, through war, solitude, and discovery, as he faces the ultimate question: Is he man, beast, or something far beyond either? “Echoes from the Eternal” is a raw, powerful tale of evolution, identity, and survival. Through the eyes of the hybrid, readers experience a world both familiar and alien, brutal and profound. His story is one of silence and echoes — echoes that will reverberate across the ages.
