The Ark The Light

In a world on the brink of ruin, Valen, a lone and emotionless survivor, is thrust into a battle against an impending disaster that threatens to consume all of reality. The fabric of existence is unraveling due to an ancient rift that grows ever stronger, pulling shadows and forgotten things into the light. After his death, Valen is granted the power to travel back in time, driven by a singular purpose: to restore balance and prevent the catastrophe from unfolding. But as Valen journeys through a decaying world filled with ominous figures, cryptic warnings, and shifting landscapes, he discovers that the price of saving his world may be far steeper than he can imagine. The shadows that haunt him speak of his failure before he even begins, questioning whether he can bear the burden of his quest. With each step forward, Valen’s very essence is tested, and he must confront the darkness within himself—if he is to have any hope of saving the future. Riftborn: The Fall of Light explores themes of sacrifice, destiny, and the relentless pursuit of survival, as Valen learns that some truths are too dangerous to uncover, and some paths are better left unexplored.

Have you ever played so many survival games that it became second nature? How? You ask… it's simple, the more you train yourself to notice how to keep your character alive the longer it becomes stuck in the back of your mind. When the game only gives you one life and makes you restart from the beginning you try and win by keeping that one life alive till the end! Only for it to make you want to play the next sequel because of how it ended in the first one. Even though some games are impossible to finish because they are unfinishable by design… Or… is it not just a game or simulation? Ever get that feeling the game is more than just a game? Or that it's too realistic and the graphics are excellent? Or when you could see yourself in the character's position… Is that why many make a character like themselves or a character they would love to meet? Like helping your crush survive and unlock poses, prizes, outfits, or emotes that are meant for a group. What would happen if you survived so well, yet not completing or progressing to the main mission, that the God of that “game” issued you a challenge?.? Many stories of Iseki into books, past or present, or a new world. Yet none about the same universe and being kidnapped to another planet same yet different from a survival game! How long would you last ?.?

In a world where magic thrives and shadows linger, Changra Leville is a boy haunted by a fractured past. One moment, he’s navigating the mundane struggles of high school; the next, he’s thrust into a realm teetering on the edge of ruin. Armed with a mysterious crimson dagger that feeds on his emotions, Changra must confront a destiny he never asked for—one that could bring salvation or destruction. As whispers of forgotten gods and ancient prophecies surface, Changra discovers that the greatest battles are not always fought with steel, but within the heart. Will he rise to the challenge or be consumed by the darkness he fears most? Changra blinked as a small, green, fox-like creature with caterpillar legs padded toward him, its glowing tongue flicking the air. “What... even are you?” Changra asked, leaning back cautiously as it let out a melodic chirp. The creature tilted its head and chirped again, louder this time. It darted forward, brushing against his leg. “Okay, no. Boundaries! Haven’t you ever heard of personal space?” Changra yelped, stumbling back and nearly tripping over a glowing mushroom. The creature trilled happily, circling him with what seemed like the world's most confident caterpillar swagger. Changra sighed, rubbing his temples. Great. I’ve been here for less than a day, and I’m already the unofficial babysitter for alien fox bugs. Author's Note: Hi! This is going to be my first ever WebNovel.

“This is just a story, a work of fiction spun from the imagination. The characters you’ll meet, their choices, their emotions—they exist only in these words. But sometimes, fiction has a way of reflecting reality, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ll find glimpses of people you know, moments you’ve lived, or feelings you’ve felt. Or maybe not. Either way, remember: this is their world, not yours. And in their world, everything begins on an ordinary university campus, with a girl who didn’t know her life was about to change and a boy who never cared what he might break.

The air was thick with smoke and the scent of blood, heavy enough to choke her as she clung to the shadows. She’d grown up within these walls, the stone corridors of her family’s stronghold, where she’d always been the quiet one, the unassuming Luminary, watching her kin wield their power over the wolves below with an iron fist. Tonight, the fortress shook under the force of rebellion. A war-cry echoed nearby, and she shivered, feeling the ground tremble as wolves overthrew the guards in waves, the very magic that had once bound them broken. The legends always said that the Luminaries were untouchable, but here they were—falling, one by one, as the stronghold became a grave. She ducked into an alcove, her back pressed against the cold stone, heart racing as her mind fought to make sense of the chaos. The Luminaries’ rule was absolute; they controlled everything and everyone with invisible threads of power. They were feared, revered—and yet, she knew what had been done in her family’s name. The iron discipline, the cold cruelty that had been deemed necessary, even just. But now, face to face with what that cruelty had cost, she felt a hollowness settle in her chest. A shadow appeared at the end of the hall. She stiffened, recognizing him immediately. He was the one from the old stories, the one who had somehow resisted the Luminaries’ control, a man of a bloodline immune to her family’s magic. His eyes, dark as midnight, swept the corridor before falling on her. In that moment, every instinct told her to run, but her body wouldn’t move, caught between dread and a strange sense of fate. He stopped before her, and his gaze bored into her, assessing, calculating. “So,” he said finally, voice cold. “This is where they hid the last of you.” She swallowed, lifting her chin. “I… I didn’t ask for any of this.” “Didn’t you?” His words were sharp, cutting through the chaos. “How convenient. That’s what they all say when they’re caught.” The accusation stung, but she kept her gaze steady. “Not everyone deserves to die.” His lips curled in a bitter smile. “Spoken like a true Luminary. Even now, you cling to the lies they fed you.” The weight of his anger was palpable, filling the air around them. She could feel his fury like a storm, a hatred so raw it burned her. And yet, as he glared at her, she saw a flicker of hesitation, a crack in the armor he wore so tightly. She didn’t know that, in her softness, she held a power she didn’t understand—a quiet magic, subtle but unyielding, that drew him in against his will. He closed the distance between them, his hand gripping her arm firmly. “The others will die,” he murmured, his tone edged with finality. “But you, you’re coming with me. You’re too dangerous to be left alive, but maybe you’re just valuable enough to be kept breathing.” Her heart hammered, the weight of his words settling over her as he pulled her forward, binding her fate to his, a captive of the very rebellion that had destroyed her family.
