Night King In Game Of Thrones

Have you ever heard these phrases before. Never again will the waters become a flood. To us a child is born, to us a son is given. I can feel it in my bones. There is no passion to be found playing small. London bridge as fallen, the Queen is dead. Phrases so great that they can usher in a new era. Whether an era of peace, destruction, Chaos or love. A lot of people fear the start of a new era, but as you can see nothing bad as happen at the cost of these new beginnings and nothing is being expected to happen, because of the new generations and the changes in belief. except the fact that the first white man to be born was thrown out by his people resulting in the enslavement of black people for hundreds of years. These Phrases might not have meant much at the time they were said, but today they are like a sniper pulling the trigger of his gun and only grazing its target. Well those might have, but you know one phrase that didn't miss it's target's bullseye.

The "Real Game" is this game, the world itself. There, shut-ins strive day in and day out without knowing why they are the target of attacks. The real reason might actually be the fact that there is an open competition in this world. A battle royal of some sort and shut-ins are the strongest players that can beat them. That is why this is a "Real Game Shut-in".

In a world where multiple realms are connected by the invisible threads of universal laws, Aldir, an ordinary university student, finds his life turned upside down after a near-fatal accident. While returning home with his friend Maya, Aldir is suddenly thrust into an unknown forest—his surroundings dark, menacing, and filled with danger. As he faces a pack of monstrous wolves, Aldir prepares for his inevitable demise, only to discover something extraordinary within himself. In his final moments, Aldir awakens an ancient, dormant power that has been lying deep within him. This power, though unfamiliar, responds to his will. With his advanced knowledge of physics and human anatomy, Aldir begins to integrate these sciences with his newfound abilities, allowing him to control and channel energy in ways that defy the laws of the physical world. The energy that once coursed through his body like a threat is now harnessed as a weapon of incredible potential. But Aldir’s journey doesn’t end with his survival. The awakening of his power draws the attention of forces far greater than anything he could have imagined. As he battles his way through the dangers of this new realm, he uncovers the hidden truth behind his existence: he is not human, but something far older, a being from an ancient race known as the Dhyarath, a race with ties to both the heavens and the demons. Now, with the balance of multiple worlds at stake, Aldir must confront powerful enemies, unlock the secrets of his true nature, and grapple with the immense responsibilities that come with his newfound strength. The threads of fate have intertwined his destiny with the fate of the realms themselves, and Aldir must decide whether to embrace the power within him—or fall prey to its darker nature.

Twelve Thrones is a tale of twelve kingdoms, each with its own perspective, allowing you to follow one, multiple, or all as you decide who you want to see triumph in the end. But remember—this is a story of war, power, and ambition, and not all kingdoms will survive to the end. Twelve Thrones: Ghar Perspective explores the rise and struggles of the Tribes of Ghar, a land shaped by power shifts and conflict. From its humble beginnings in the savanna, where tribes lived in simple wooden huts, to the emergence of strong leaders and alliances, Ghar’s history is one of survival, unity, and ambition. As the tribes face internal divisions and threats from neighboring kingdoms, their resilience is tested at every turn. The first 25 chapters will cover Ghar’s history, uploaded weekly on Mondays at noon. Afterward, the main story begins with shorter chapters (1–2 per week) focusing on the present day. Unlike the history chapters, the story won’t have dates and will follow 1 character—you’ll need to piece together the timeline through character interactions and events. I recommend reading the series in date order to fully grasp the unfolding history. If the story gains popularity, I might include a date order map on each perspective.

As Mia drove through the bustling city streets, her heart began to race—not from the traffic, but from the chilling knowledge that a bomb had been planted in her car. The news had come through a frantic message on her phone, a warning from an anonymous source that sent her spiraling into a state of panic. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning white as she fought to maintain control. With every red light, her dread deepened. She knew that the moment she stopped the car, the bomb would detonate. The thought of leaving her Lysander behind filled her with a profound sense of sorrow. They had so many plans, dreams of a future together that now felt impossibly distant. With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed Lysander’s number. “Mi Amore?” Lysander’s voice came through, laced with concern. “What’s wrong?” Mia smiled sadly, he could always tell when something was bothering her and yet she was going to leave him. “Lysander , I need you to listen to me,” she said, her voice quivering. “ You’re a very great person. I never thought I would find this type of love. I only thought love like this was just a fairytale. But you….you….” Mia paused taking in a deep breath. “Anna? What’s happening? Is something wrong? You’re scaring me.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she turned her head towards the backseat where the bomb sat. How could she tell this to Lysander? She was going to die and leave him. She was going to leave him alone with the thoughts and dreams they shared. Silence hung heavy on the line, and Anna could almost hear the rapid beating of her heart. “I just found out…… I… I don’t have much time,” she choked out, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m so sorry, love. I won’t be able to see you again.” “Don’t say that! We’ll figure this out! Just tell me what’s happening? ” he urged, desperation creeping into his tone. “No, please, just listen. It’s too late now. I love you so much, and I want you to remember that. You’ve made my life so beautiful. I wish I could hold you one last time.” Her voice broke as she fought to keep her composure. “Anna, don’t—” “I have to go, Lysander . Just know that I’m always with you.” With that, she hung up, her heart shattering into a million pieces. She looked at the cliff ahead of her and stepped on the gas, the car racing towards the cliff. ************* In the heart of a bustling college town, twenty-year-old Anna Mia Harper is juggling classes, bills, and a growing sense of despair as an orphan navigating life on her own.

Excited by the prospect, Anna Mia arrives under the eerie glow of the moon, ready to face whatever the night may bring. But when she encounters a mysterious man lounging atop a tombstone—one who bears a striking resemblance to a deceased local legend—her heart races.

Eighteen-year-old Nabil suddenly finds himself transported to a dangerous, game-like world along with 50 other players. Scattered across a vast realm of 10 continents, the players quickly realize that while this world bears striking similarities to a popular game they once knew, it is no virtual landscape. Instead, it is a reality created by a higher-dimensional god, who has sent them here for his own twisted form of gambling entertainment. This god watches from his dimension as the players struggle for survival, their fates dangling by the thread of his whims. The rules are brutal. Each player has one year—365 days—to find a way out. However, only five can escape, leaving the others trapped in this deadly world, or worse, condemned to an unknown fate. The stakes are high: killing another player grants points, and accumulating enough points may be the only way to secure one of the five spots for freedom. Alliances will form, and betrayals are inevitable, as desperation pushes players to act in ways they never imagined. Nabil, initially feeling hopeless, is seemingly dealt the weakest ability among all the players: the power to control pets. Compared to others who possess flashy and devastating skills, his ability appears laughable at first. Worse, he has no additional skills to rely on—only his wits, his ability to command creatures, and his will to survive. Yet, as Nabil explores this dangerous world, he soon learns that his power may hold more potential than he ever imagined. In a realm filled with monstrous beasts, rival players, and deadly environments, his pet control ability could be his key to survival. Through taming and commanding various creatures, Nabil begins to develop a unique strategy that allows him to take on both powerful enemies and cunning rivals. But Nabil knows the harsh reality: every player is a threat. As alliances shift and tensions rise, he must carefully navigate who to trust and who to eliminate. With limited time and a finite number of players allowed to return home, the competition grows deadlier by the day. Nabil’s journey is not just about brute strength; it’s a test of cunning, survival instincts, and the ability to uncover the true potential of his seemingly weak power. As he uncovers more about this mysterious world, Nabil begins to question the motives of the higher-dimensional god who put them here. Is there more to this cruel game than just survival? What hidden secrets does this god’s world hold, and is there a way to outsmart the rules entirely? Nabil must not only survive but find a way to escape this nightmare—before it consumes him and the others entirely.

"Should you, as the healer, not take a very close look?" he asked. "Isn't that why you are here? To scrutinize every part of me, including my ability to produce an heir." Freya's face flushed deeper. She had braced herself for hostility or skepticism from the ascendants, but this overt testing of boundaries was unexpected. "I am certain that scrutinizing you...naked, won't reveal much about your ability to produce an heir," she retorted quickly. He smirked, stepping closer. Freya resisted the urge to retreat; his proximity overwhelming, his large frame practically eclipsing her view of the room. She forced herself to meet his gaze, determined not to let her eyes wander to his bare chest. He towered over her, his presence domineering. Droplets from his damp hair occasionally fell onto her face. She blinked, surprised by the sudden coolness on her skin. Roarke lifted a large hand, gently wiping away a droplet of water from her cheek with a touch that was unexpectedly gentle. "Then...do you want to test my ability in a different way?" he asked, his tone suggestive. ***** Freya Lorne, a gifted healer, finds herself swept into the heart of a conflict when she is summoned to the distant and divided realm of Eldranor.
