Shattered Crown Monica Kayne

In the vast seas beyond, she is known as Lyra Marie Stonehaven, the only princess of the United Kingdom of Eldoria. Born as the youngest child and only daughter of King Caspian, a sovereign of a vast empire, she bears the constant burden of royal duty and the unyielding scrutiny of the public. Her days are meticulously orchestrated, filled with state dinners, diplomatic meetings, and charity galas, each step scrutinized and every word memorized. She embodies regal perfection, the living symbol of millennia of tradition and expectation. Driven by an unshakeable yearning for something more, she vanished without a trace, leaving her crown and inheritance behind. Now, in the pulsating, anonymous heart of a faraway country's vibrant music scene, she's known only as "Anya Spencer", an enigmatic singer and songwriter whose raw, emotional lyrics and captivating melodies have taken the globe by storm. Her concerts sell out in minutes, her albums break streaming records, and her face graces magazine covers worldwide. Like a modern-day phenomenon, she's achieved the kind of meteoric rise and devoted fanbase that rivals can’t even keep up. Here, amidst the flashing lights and liberating anonymity, she's found a freedom in which her previous life could never offer, living out loud through her music. It's a dangerous double life, where one wrong step, one glimpse of her true identity, could shatter her empire of sound and drag her back to the life she desperately fled. But one night, her worst nightmare happened.

The world bows to Eleven God-Emperors until tonight. The last rebellion begins with a whisper... and ends with the sky screaming. They were never meant to win. The throne was never meant to break. That thing watching from the eclipse? It's been waiting for them. Hayuni dances through bloodshed in silks that slit throats, her fox-spirit whispering secrets no mortal should know. Payune marches in armor fused to her flesh, the last daughter of dragons carrying a sword that eats gods.

To become a Royal Guard, you must bond with a spirit. To survive what’s coming, Helion will need more than a bond—he’ll need to face himself. In a world where only those who fuse with elemental spirits can unlock true power, Soulform is everything. It’s the mark of the elite. The requirement to become a Royal Guard. And the key to the future Helion has always dreamed of. But before he can even begin that journey, Helion starts seeing things no one else can. Visions. Fragments. Other versions of himself from shattered worlds. A king. A warrior. A frightened boy. He doesn’t know why he sees them. He doesn’t know why he’s the only one left. When a storm spirit tears through his home, Helion is forced to activate a Soulform he doesn’t yet understand— setting him on a path that will test not only his strength, but his very identity. Now, as unseen forces stir and questions multiply, Helion must uncover the truth about his power, his visions… And the version of himself that must survive them all. One dream, One soul, And maybe, only one chance to become who he was meant to be.

In a kingdom where emotions fuel magic, everyone is trained to control their feelings—because too much love, rage, or grief can literally level a city. But Ariya, a seventeen-year-old girl born with "null magic" (zero emotional magic response), is the anomaly: unbothered, unmagical, and totally free in a society ruled by restraint. Until... she accidentally saves a dying mysterious boy—Kael, who turns out to be the last heir of a cursed bloodline, banished centuries ago. His emotions are magic. Unfiltered. Explosive. And now bonded to Ariya, the only person who can suppress his chaos and stop the ancient curse eating him alive. Together, they’re forced into hiding. But there’s a catch: the more time they spend together, the more Ariya begins to feel. And as she starts to awaken emotionally, her null magic doesn't disappear—it morphs. She doesn’t just feel things. She begins to absorb and amplify the emotions of those around her, turning her into a magical bomb of empathy. As enemies close in and kingdoms wage war over control of Kael’s unstable powers, Ariya must choose: Stay emotionally numb and safe, Or unlock her power, fall in love, and risk losing everything in a magical meltdown that could destroy them both.

***Together, they were like fire and ice.*** Damon pursued, ready to conquer while Alexander ran, trying so hard to remain cold and guarded. Alexander had thought guarding the sick crown prince was something so easy until he found himself cruelly yet so innocently tempted. ***excerpt*** There was indeed nothing he could do when it came to this man. "You...you are shameless." Alexander managed to say something once he recovered from his momentarily shock. Damon smirked. "I know and I am unapologetic for being that way. Alexander, I am going to do whatever it takes to make you mine." Damon smiled painfully, his voice serious as his eyes burned into his. Alexander was lost for words. At least Damon was being brazenly honest about his intentions. Knowing that did not help to lessen his overwhelmed state at the bold declaration. Now, Alexander knew this man had his eyes set on him but what was he going to do about it. Run or give in to his desires. Desires his mind was still coming to terms with. Running was the safer option because uncertainty was not his greatest suite. But... this man had assured him that he had no problem chasing him. Alexander knew he was doomed...so sweetly doomed. ...

The year 2185 saw the Great Collapse, a cataclysm that shattered the old world and flung open the gates to a boundless multiversal frontier for humanity. From the ruins of ash, humanity rose again, founding a new life on KOI-72-TSW—a vibrant, peerless planet with untold power and ancient mysteries. Here, Humanity created a gateway to infinite realms accessed through the Akashic Library, explored by Storywalkers who brave the Trails of the Beyond. By 2225, Year 23 Post-Great Collapse, humanity commands power spanning infinite realities. Yet, with godlike power comes ambition that reaches beyond the heavens, and humanity's ambition burns brighter than ever: domination over all, igniting an inferno of creation and destruction across existence. The Laws of Humanity—seven absolute edicts hold humanity together through force and fatal consequence, enforced by the merciless Judicator Corps under the eye of the all-powerful Paragon Council. But even with the help of the Ten Great Heavens, the pillars of humanity, the brightest guiding stars in the long nights of despair—the sword of Damocles above the head of humanity does nothing to fade. As The One in Red stirs The Eldritch Code, Taebaek’s forgotten soul awakens within the cracks of destiny, a representation of fear clawing its way back into history. At Glory Academy, the brightest—and most dangerous—Storywalkers are forged. Among them are a group of students, rebels, visionaries, and prodigies. They are thrust into a spiralling maelstrom of war, reincarnation, rebellion, and revelation. Bearing the mark of fate, their destinies will ripple further than they could imagine. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello, Author here, The Renegade Fish/The Guilty Fish.

Five nations. Five chosen. One crown. Born of prophecy, five children are marked by ancient spirits to end a war that has shattered the world. But the prophecy speaks a darker truth—only one shall rise, and the rest must fall. When a scarred boy is mistaken for the child of flame, he’s thrust into a fate that was never his. Now, hunted and doubted, Terin must walk the path of the chosen while carrying a lie that could break nations. In a world where weapons are soul-forged and spirits demand truth, alliances will crack, legends will rise, and power will decide peace. The crown awaits. But prophecy chooses only one.

In the grand, unforgiving world of Viraatkshetra—a realm governed by the iron whims of Devas (gods) and Asuras (demons)—all life follows a preordained path. Mortals are but pawns in a cosmic game, their destinies woven into a celestial tapestry by forces beyond their comprehension. The grandest of these predestined events is the War of the Crimson Twilight, an apocalyptic conflict that will reshape the heavens and the earth, for which entire generations are born to serve as fodder. Amrit, a soul from modern-day Earth, is reincarnated into this world not as a prophesied hero, but as the third prince of a minor kingdom, a boy cursed with a frail body and shattered meridians, destined to be one of the first casualties of the coming war. His life is a quiet tragedy, a footnote in a blood-soaked epic. As he lies on his deathbed, consumed by a fever that his new world's divine medicine cannot cure, his despair and the unique nature of his transmigrated soul trigger an awakening—a system beyond the understanding of gods themselves. He gains the [Infinite Crit System], a god-defying power that can apply a random, multiplicative "critical hit" to any action he performs. A single breathing exercise can yield a century's worth of cultivation. A glance at a sword technique can grant him the insight of a grandmaster. A moment of thought can untangle the profound mysteries of the Dao. Armed with this unprecedented ability, Amrit's path diverges violently from the one fate has written for him. He begins a journey not just of survival, but of rebellion. He will cultivate forbidden techniques, forge impossible weapons, and gather allies from the forgotten corners of the world—those who, like him, have been deemed disposable by destiny. His journey will lead him from the dusty training yards of his forgotten kingdom to the celestial battlefields of gods, from uncovering the dark secrets behind his reincarnation to challenging the very beings who weave the threads of fate. Shattering the Celestial Loom is an epic of defiance. It explores themes of determinism versus free will, the nature of power, and the courage required to tear down a gilded cage, even if that cage is the entire universe. Amrit must not only grow stronger than the heroes and villains of his age; he must become a force capable of breaking the fundamental laws of reality, facing cosmic entities who view his existence as a glitch in their perfect creation. His ultimate goal is not just to survive, but to seize the celestial loom and grant true freedom to a world shackled by destiny. discord channel - https://discord.gg/8PVnHKcj

A shattered continent called Valmyra, once united under the mythical Ember Crown, an artifact of fire and balance. After the crown was broken, five kingdoms formed, each guarding a shard of its power. Peace is fragile, and war is brewing.

In a world ruled by hidden societies — from Murim clans to vampire courts, techno-gods to system-blessed saints — Erwin Wail was just a forgotten man. Powerless. Meaningless. Rejected by all. But when the world fell to dungeons and corruption, and the elite rose to play gods, Erwin discovered a darker truth — one not meant for mortals. Denied the system, forged through pain, and trained by society’s outcasts, he rose not as a hero… But as a monster. The Forsaken Crown will be claimed — by blood, manipulation, and fire. Let the gods tremble.

The most eclectic epic ever inspired! "If she feels pain, then I'll make sure you all do..." With the whole globe snowed over, humans are no longer on top of the ladder. A matter creating dragon, and violent crystal/ice aliens, sizes ranging from the average human to towering monsters large enough to squash cities, have forced humanity into various locations of hiding. The chaotic new world gives the opportunity for several members of a manipulative, 8th century witch clan to reveal themselves and save the most meek of humans. Each woman using a form of magic which has secretly coexisted with humanity, to take control of the post-apocalyptic world as Mafia Bosses, Dictators, modern day Conquerors, and other forms of ruling leadership. All in an attempt, not to save humanity, but to prove which is the strongest amongst them. Meanwhile, in the three years after the initial invasion, a few humans have begun to not only fight back against the ice aliens, but some choose to become hosts and acquire unique abilities after slaying one of these bloodthirsty, unconventional extraterrestrials. Shortly before leaving their sanctuary/apocalypse training academy, two friends, Katsu and Saku, are reunited as an academic squad, but the polar opposite personalities are chosen by the last surviving "Creator of Humanity". Both boys 'blessed' as hosts for their universe's contemporary forces and use their "God abilities" to achieve their own (secretly combative) goals. Accompanying them is Shelly, the last surviving descendant to the greatest 'unknown' Scandinavian sword fighter. After being revealed of her destined lineage, and the otherwise "mythical" history of her highly respected grandmother from the Viking/Valkyrie Age, Shelly is determined to retrieve all of her slain grandmother's stolen weapons from the both physically and magically gifted covenant of aforementioned witches. With overpowered witches now trying to gain control over societies, humans gaining powers from the same alien monters who originally threaten them, as well as a secretive psychopath pulling the strings of chaos, in order to save only himself and his precious friend at the end of it all, can love conquer all, or will their love conquer us all?

In a world born from the ashes of countless others, the cycle of creation and destruction repeats endlessly—each world discarded by a creator obsessed with perfection. Asrial, a boy of mysterious origins, survives the annihilation of his village by the feared Church of the Broken God. Left hollow, a mere shell, he unknowingly embarks on the ancient Trials of the Elemental Dragons—awakening powers long thought impossible. But Asrial's soul is not his own. Within him sleeps the fragmented essence of the world's original creator, and with each step forward, his fragile existence begins to unravel. Haunted by the past and driven by vengeance, Asrial is thrust into a world where hidden factions, corrupt kingdoms, and deadly bishops pull the strings from the shadows. Among them stands the Crimson Witch—the one who burned his home and stole his sister. Yet behind the war of mortals and monsters lies a forgotten truth: the so-called Broken God, Caelon, was never the villain—but a hero, rejected by his own world, now seeking to reclaim what was stolen. Asrial must confront the twisted oaths, forgotten histories, and his own crumbling soul to stand between two collapsing worlds. But can he save his world without becoming the very tyrant he seeks to destroy?

“Every empire ends in silence. His just forgot to scream.” In a city carved from glass and steel, where thunder hides in boardrooms and empires wear suits instead of armor, Aldrin reigns from the top of the Aetherium Spire—not with a crown of gold, but one of consequence, silence, and fire. A man forged in forgotten wars, he built a godless dominion where diplomacy cuts deeper than blades, and betrayal is a language fluently spoken. But the storm doesn’t come with an army. It walks in quietly. Iris Cael arrives as a new recruit to Orion—young, brilliant, clean. Too clean. A whisper in a dossier. A lie waiting to be told. And Aldrin, haunted by ghosts he buried in data cores and ash, senses the tremor before the quake. As old shadows stir and forgotten names reemerge—chief among them, Mara, the woman who burned the world beside him before vanishing—Aldrin begins to unravel not from weakness, but from prophecy. His stillness isn’t peace. It’s the pause before ignition. Allies become watchers. Watchers become threats. The city begins to hum with a vibration too ancient for technology and too deliberate for coincidence. Beneath the contracts and campaigns lies something deeper: A reckoning. And Aldrin knows—when fire returns, it won’t ask for permission. It will ask what he’s willing to burn to stay in control.

And with a past shrouded in unanswered debts, he returns to the city not to survive — but to reign. Each arc explores social structures, personal trauma, and power.

Haunted by echoes of forgotten choices, he walks a knife’s edge between redemption and oblivion. To escape the fate he may have forged, he must unravel the truth—before he becomes the villain of his own story.

But as days twist into nightmares, a darker truth claws at me. Why am I really here? Facade isn’t just a spy. He’s a broken man haunted by a vow he can’t remember—a guilt he refuses to name. Every hallway whisper lies. Every memory tries to kill him. And at the heart of it all lies a choice: save the only family he has left—or destroy everything. In a world where morality bends and reality collapses, what would you choose?
