Dahvie Vanity

Our story begins on a planet called Gieă in a Continent called 'Eclispe of the Oceans' where chaos slowly unfolds with its influence slowly spreading into the entire world. This is a paced story that follows multiple characters shaped ruthlessly by desires and passion. A young dragon princess thirsty for acknowledgement, A prisoner breaking free from fate, A shadow who would die for his master, A light without a source and a question without an answer. Some of these special individuals fight for power, some fight to destroy, some fight to save, some fight for freedom, some fight for love, some fight for vengeance and some fight from duty. They all bleed, some of them fall, some grow and some lose sight of their purpose while consciously or unconsciously trying to find one thing,.. Balance. In a world riddled by chaos where 'good people and bad people' have been replaced by the terms 'winners or losers', where greed determines justice and vanity replaces passion, where energies conflicts, wars emerge and ruthlessness gets imprinted by experience into the hearts of even the most innocent and brave heroes. They stand for their desire and themselves with a riddle left unanswered from the very beginning of time,.. "What truly is balance?.." Follow our main characters through their dramatic struggles for answers as the choices they make influences themselves and their world. THIS IS A SLOW-PACED STORY AND THERE WOULDN'T BE LOTS OF ACTION SCENES AT THE BEGINNING BUT AS TIME PROGRESSES, SCENES LIKE THIS WOULD BE MORE COMMON. TRUST ME, THIS IS A STORY WORTH THE INVESTMENT OF READING!.

The Digital Descent: A Journey Through Social Media's Nine Circles of Hell In the age of likes, shares, and endless scrolling, the digital landscape has become a reflection of humanity’s darkest impulses. For Durante, a man who has always tried to navigate the treacherous waters of social media with care, the line between the virtual and the real world suddenly shatters when he’s pulled into an infernal journey unlike any other. After a single reckless action by a powerful social media influencer, Durante finds himself trapped in the heart of a twisted underworld—a place where the sins of the digital age are laid bare. Guided by a mysterious, ancient figure who understands the deep roots of this new hell, Durante must navigate the nine circles of social media’s most insidious depths. Each circle reveals a new horror: from the vanity of endless selfies to the deception of fake news, from the wrathful clashes of online trolls to the treacherous betrayals of influencers who sell their souls for fleeting fame. With each step, Durante uncovers the chilling truths about how social media has corrupted the human mind, warping reality into a nightmarish landscape of manipulation and control. But this is more than just a journey through a digital dystopia—it's a reflection on the very soul of humanity and the world’s submission to the unseen forces behind the streams. As Durante descends deeper into this hellish world, he must confront not only the demons of the digital age but also the shadows within his own heart. The Digital Descent: A Journey Through Social Media's Nine Circles of Hell is a gripping, thought-provoking exploration of the impact of social media on our lives, our minds, and our world. A modern-day Dante’s Inferno, it offers a sobering look at the consequences of our digital obsessions and the path to redemption—or destruction—that lies ahead.

As a princess who could not wield magic, Princess Daphne’s only value to her kingdom was her arranged marriage. The task was simple, but when Daphne was kidnapped and brought to the cold mountains of Vramid, she realized that she was in over her head. She had heard of these cursed mountains before― rocky terrain, freezing temperatures, and the land was ruled by a man feared by many within the continent. King Atticus Heinvres, the blood-thirsty ruler of the North. Even though she had never met him before, tales were spread of King Atticus’s ruthlessness. Some said he was a monster, others claimed he was the devil himself, but whatever the story was, everyone knew of the man who had powers beyond anyone’s imagination. He could topple armies and crumble nations with just one wave of his hand, aided by what others rumored to be a cursed obsidian ring. No one outside of Vramid had ever met the fearsome king before. Not until Daphne. However, upon meeting the formidable man, Daphne found out that the king might not really be the monster others had claimed him to be. In fact, what was hidden under that obsidian shield could just be a diamond in the rough. ― [Excerpt] “Now… where should I put you both?” he asked casually, not expecting a reply. “It’s regretful that I only have one chandelier.” “Underneath my bed? No, no, too dirty. My dust bunnies don’t deserve this,” Atticus mused to himself. “The mantlepiece? How about the vanity table? I suppose if I lop off one of your heads I could mount it over… Wife, which head do you want to stare at while you do your hair?” “Atticus!” Daphne screamed. “I don’t want any heads! Let them go.” “Fair enough.” Atticus shrugged, and flicked his fingers. There were two identical cracks as both necks snapped at once. Daphne gasped, horrified. This man, her husband, had just killed two men with a flick of his finger, as though he was snuffing out candles. “I told you to let them go!” Daphne cried out. “Yes, I let them go,” Atticus said. Then, his eyes darkened. “To receive divine judgment from the heavens.” ― Discord Server: https://discord.gg/7HAMK2bRYU Spin-off/Prequel: The Hidden King's Stolen Wife (WIP)

"Demon priest" they'd jeer at him with contempt and barely hidden jealousy, jealous of the attention Yin Konan,the goddess of mercy would give him.

He was one himself after all. Despite every other priest hating his very existence, despite the looks the comoners gave him when he asked for alms, despite the amount of beating he'd have to recieve to beg for the life of a child that had recently been demonified.

Yes...Taking down The shrine of the thousand gold statues...the monument to the god's pride. What a wonderful start to a wonderful mission it would be...but first...he had to prepare...

Regia looked around the large room. It was a huge paradox of what she was used to. It had a large vanity embroidered with silver and marble and a grand styled decor. She moved closer to the large bed in the centre of the room. Its sheets had been rolled back invitingly and it was an invite that she couldn't resist. She crawled on the bed and laid on its soft sheets, adoring its feeling against her skin. She didn't know when or how she fell asleep afterwards. A hand slowly tapped her and she fluttered her eyes open. The duke of Albania stood observing her,his hands pulled to his back. She sat up with a start and quickly got of the bed. She didn't need a soothsayer to tell her he was the man she had been waiting for. She curtsied with as much grace as she owned and greeted him. "Good afternoon sire". He frowned at her which made her breath hitch. " Good afternoon?, girl it is evening already",he remarked quite harshly. Her eyes widened and she turned to look out the window. She didn't know she had slept that long. The room was lit by an array of gorgeous lantern in the wall. She bowed slightly,tendering her apology. He let out a low scoff before asking, "Is this what you want to wear to sleep?", he asked causing her to look at her gown. She was still wearing the gown she wore after the change. She had been waiting for him so that they could go and eat together but it seemed like he wasn't interested in food at the moment. She watched him head to her bed to sit. He sat and frowned again seeing her stand in the same position. " Well,won't you change to your night gown",he said breaking into her thought. She quickly regained her composure, bowed tendering her apology, and dashed to her observatory veiled with long decorated satin curtains. She saw her night shift already folded and carefully placed on a table beside her bathtub. She quickly slipped out of the heavy clothe she was laden with and wore the white,transparent gown reserved for her. She swallowed as she observed herself in the standing mirror placed in the observatory. The clothe clung to her in all the right places and it perfectly matched her skin. She knew that whoever placed it there had an eye for beauty. She held her breath as she tried to get her thoughts composed. She muttered encouraging words to herself as she sought to return to the Duke. She had already kept him waiting for far too long. She walked in careful strides as she pulled back the curtain and walked towards the bed. The Duke was lying down on the bed now, facing the ceiling. She stopped a few inches afar and called out. "Sire, I am now changed". She waited for a response for a few seconds and on not getting any repeated her statement. He still didn't respond causing her to furrow her brows. She wondered if he fell asleep in his wait. She walked over to him and tapped him gently. He still didn't make a move and his eyes were closed. She trailed his hands to under the sheets. He was unusually quiet and she wasn't even sure she could hear him breathe. She put her hand under the sheets and drew out his hands. What she saw next caused her to shriek in fear. She saw that his hands was covered in his own blood. She pulled the sheets down completely and saw that he had been stabbed by a knife,laying in a pool of his own blood. She fell back in fear,feeling a sinking feeling rise in her chest as her breathing became uneven in panic. She wanted to ran out to call for help but her body refuses to move,reminding her if the implication of her action if she did so. She had nowhere to run or who to talk to that would believe her. She shook her head vehemently,running her hands roughly through her hair. She steeled herself with a new resolution, reminding herself that crying or panic would solve nothing. She stood up and quickly calculated her next line of action. She decided to leave the building and the town as a whole,knowing that her very life was on the line.

The moonlight coming through the windows illuminated the room. Juho took a clip from her vanity and tied her hair into a messy bun. He snaked his arms around her waist resting his hands on her stomach. Kamou patiently observed him, the reflection of them together looked so perfect.  "You looked stunning today. Let me show you what effect you have on me." Juho whispered into her ears. Juho held out her left arms, he planted a soft kiss on the back of her arms. Leaving small kisses, he made his way up to her shoulder. Kamou saw it all unfold in the mirror, the change in her expression, the goosebumps appearing on her skin, the neediness in her eyes.  "The day I first saw you, you were wearing the same color. I couldn't take my eyes off you that day. Now you are in my arms, I still can't take my eyes off you." With that he attacked her neck with his mouth. Sucking it hard, he left a red mark as Kamou whimpered in pain. "I crave you so much. I need you more and more every day." he seductively said in her ear. A small moan escaped Kamou's lips. Juho licked her earlobe making her give up. Feeling weak in her legs Kamou rested her head on his chest. "Juhoo..." she looked at his reflection. The intense look in his eyes was turning her on. Seeing her reaction, a smirk appeared on his face. He was enjoying it, teasing her, leaving her helpless. "Patience my love." ********************* Park Juho, a twenty-four-year-old singer, very attractive, confident and talented. Falls in love with Kamou a rising actress.

''People need stories more than bread itself. They tell us how to live—and why." - Arabian Nights *** *** *** Throwing the pregnancy test into the wastebasket, Aerith unboxed another stick and peed on it. Her finger tapped on the vanity as she waited for the results. "Fck," she mouthed, her gaze locked on the white strip on the counter that was mocking her.  Two blue stripes.

She made a promise not to follow her mother's footsteps...but look at her now.  She's at the exact crossroads her mother once took. Pregnant at the time of her life when she should be enjoying her youth. Subconsciously, her mind spiraled down to that fateful day that changed the direction of her life—the day she offered herself to Hunter Ma. She scoffed. If there was one thing that Aerith Ang knew about Hunter Ma, it would be him collecting promises.
