Hive Fleet Kronos

"Gordon! Why are you late? The awakening ceremony is right now!" Jessica said urgently when she saw Gordon come through the doors of the awakening center. Shrugging Gordon didn't say anything. The last thing in the world that he wanted to do was tell this beautiful girl that he had been tripped and beaten on the way to school today. It was times like this that he wished that he bruised more easily. Then maybe he could get some attention. But this thought was fleeting in his mind. Gordon actually preferred to deal with his problems in his own way. And awakening to become a beast tamer and maybe even have his own talent would be the first step. Once he had a powerful beast the bullies wouldn't dare pick on him. "Come on, let's get in line." Jessica whispered to Gordon when she realized that he wasn't going to tell her what had happened. Together they went to the back of the arena type auditorium to wait for their turn to awaken. They had been friends since childhood and had been there for each other through thick and thin. Jessica had been the only friend that stuck with him despite all of his quirks. Slowly the line inched forward. Occasionally some people in their class would cheer if in addition to becoming a beast master a student also awakened a talent.

In a sprawling metropolis where the lines between reality and illusion blur, Lara Harper begins to notice the cracks in her world. After a string of inexplicable events—time loops, unsettling strangers, and a photograph of herself in a place she’s never been—Lara is thrust into a psychological nightmare. Her once-familiar city seems alive, shifting and pulsating as though it has a will of its own. The photograph, which shouldn’t exist, becomes the key to unraveling the mystery. Within its frame lurks a shadowy figure, growing clearer with each passing moment. Every clue Lara uncovers only deepens her paranoia: an enigmatic neighbor with cryptic warnings, a seemingly kind friend with secrets of his own, and an eerie text message from someone who knows far too much. As Lara delves deeper, she discovers she isn’t the only one trapped in the city’s grasp. Victor, her steady but haunted upstairs neighbor, and Margot, the alluring and enigmatic woman from down the hall, are drawn into the unfolding madness. Together, they uncover fragments of a terrible truth: their reality is a fractured mirror, reflecting something far darker on the other side. But the city isn’t just breaking—it’s hungry. As time and space collapse around her, Lara must confront the figure in the photograph, the twisted nature of her memories, and the possibility that she is both the hunter and the hunted in this surreal nightmare. In Reflections of the Damned, sanity is fragile, trust is fleeting, and every choice inches Lara closer to the truth—or her destruction. Will she shatter the mirror, or will it shatter her?

In the chaotic realm of Kyyrin, where draconic deities spiral in a deadly dance of death and rebirth, driven by the whims of worship, stands the cunning draconic demon goddess Yuuna. Bound by an ancient cycle, these gods continually perish and are reborn, stripped of memories, doomed to a fleeting existence. But Yuuna harbors a dark secret—her heart is the key to breaking this eternal chain. Desperate for salvation, the divine beings unite with a sinister intent: to kill Yuuna and seize her heart. Enter Xyenn, a 19-year-old with nothing but contempt for gods and a thirst for revenge. Yuuna, ever the strategist, binds this unlikely hero to her cause, sharing her formidable powers with him through a binding contract. Together, they dive into a maelstrom of divine conspiracies and battles. But amidst the chaos and battles, could there emerge an unexpected bond, perhaps love? Or does their alliance simply herald more destruction and sorrow in this god-forsaken world? Only time will tell in this high-stakes game of gods and hearts.

I shall see the end of this story. Those were the words of Kim Jakga. It was the dream of every reader to travel to the world of their favourite novel even if it was a fleeting thought.

The genre of his life completely changed. The new world was a world filled with destruction and death was lingering at every corner. He was the last reader and he must survive in this forsaken world. † † Discord: https://discord.com/invite/4YQDYXWGME Character Illustrations will be available on discord.

Centuries ago, war shattered Asgard. Tired of living in the shadow of the Aesir, Loki and his creatures of chaos sought the respect they believed was their due. Their rebellion, however, brought only death, exile, and the fleeting victory of the Aesir. But gods cannot die forever, and Loki’s defeat came with a prophecy: the war would come again, and next time, he would be ready. Many began to question whether Odin was truly fit to rule the realms. (But that was not my concern. I am an entity of death, a Fylgia bound to the cycles of life and fate. My interest lies elsewhere—with two souls cursed by Odin to live, die, and repeat their lonely existence for eternity. Sirius and Saoirse. For centuries, I’ve watched them endure lives destined for isolation and suffering. I’ve grown tired of their pain. What if they didn’t have to be alone? What if I could give them a chance to defy fate? And, perhaps, what if I could become part of the story that I’ve shaped? These were my thoughts leading up to the beginning of this story. But meddling with destiny has consequences. I probably should have paid more attention to that war, because what I didn’t realize was, by changing one thing, a ripple would expand across the realms that nobody could have anticipated.) Sirius and Saoirse, they weren’t just any Vampire and Werewolf that could have been brought together. They are creatures that must come to terms with the demon beasts inside of them or bringing them together might just end up finishing what Loki’s children had started.

With a silver blade in his back that pierce through his heart, he realizes the depths of the betrayal as he falls, vowing revenge against those who have wronged him. Five hundred years later, the echoes of the past awaken as Lucard is reincarnated into the body of Draven Veyron, a servant of a small and weak vampire clan. With his memories intact, he is determined to reclaim his throne and restore his power. As he navigates this new life, Lucard must gather allies, confront old enemies, and unlock the secrets of the Dark Codex once more. But revenge is a dangerous path, and the line between love and betrayal blurs as he encounters new allies and rekindles old flames. In a world where magic reigns and trust is fleeting, will Lucard rise to reclaim his kingdom, or will the shadows of his past consume him?

In a secluded village where tranquility seemed to reign, Arthur Greyson was a young man with a promising future. Raised by his parents, Rowan, the strong carpenter, and Elara, the wise healer, Arthur grew up with a simple life, but full of love and discipline. Under the guidance of his master Kael Grimm, a respected former warrior, he trained daily to become stronger, honing his swordsmanship skills. Peace, however, was fleeting.

In the brutal attack, his parents were killed, and his world crumbled. With his heart marked by the fire of vengeance, Arthur swore, at the age of ten, to seek justice for his family's death and end the wars that consumed the continent of Artenis.

However, the demons of the past and the pains of his loss could not be left behind. Arthur needed to confront his own shadows as he prepared to face a ruthless empire, an uncertain destiny, and the forces of evil that threatened to swallow everything he loved.

In this epic fantasy novel, the fire of destruction transforms into the fire of hope, as Arthur must choose between being consumed by hatred or forging a new path for the future.
