Beneath The Stars

At Crescent Grove Academy, secrets don’t stay buried. They’re groomed. Protected. And when someone digs too deep— They disappear. Sharon Okezie is bold, brilliant, and done playing by the rules. When she transfers into the elite school that silenced her sister’s death, she’s not here to make friends — she’s here to uncover the truth. Everyone thinks she’s just another smart girl from nowhere. Good. Let them. Because behind their designer uniforms and flawless smiles, Sharon sees what others don’t: fear, manipulation, and something darker lurking beneath the surface. The students play games with power. The staff look the other way. And the Circle — a secret society whispered about in stolen notes and locked journals — pulls every string. But Sharon isn’t afraid. She has nothing left to lose. Until someone starts watching her. Until the games turn deadly again. Until the blood stains her own uniform. In a school where everyone wears a mask, trust becomes a weapon — and survival, a twisted kind of rebellion. Some girls come to learn. Sharon came to burn it down.

She does not remember her name. She does not remember the fire. But it remembers her. Reed wakes in a world that greets her with suspicion and silence. With every touch, something burns. With every breath, something inside her stirs—not quite rage, not quite a memory, but something old and waiting. They say the gods choose their champions. But they don't say what happens to the ones who burn too bright. As Reed is drawn into a forgotten prophecy and a world that hides more than it reveals, threads of fate begin to pull—threads tied to flame, to sorrow, and to a protector who knows more than she says. As her bond with a mysterious protector deepens and buried powers resurface, Reed must decide— Will she follow the thread that binds her to fate, or burn it all to ash? Because some fates are stitched in flame. . . And some girls were never meant to be saved. Because Reed was never meant to survive—she was meant to ignite. And when she remembers who she was—it may already be too late.

At the center of the world lies a hole that swallows everything — light, sound, even memory. Most pretend it doesn’t exist. Some worship it. Others go mad just standing near its edge. On the night of his twelfth birthday, a boy hears the Hole speak his name — a name no one else remembers. Marked as a Proxy, he begins a descent into a world where truths are power, but knowing them costs everything. As he uncovers forgotten histories, walks through vanished cities, and faces beings that should not exist, one question haunts him: What happens to a person when even their name is erased? Step carefully. Some truths were forgotten for a reason.

Everyone forgot the last time the Bell rang. Elias Thorne didn’t. When a series of ritual murders rocks New Avalon, one man recognizes the symbols the world pretends never existed. Elias, a reclusive archivist with a buried past, knows these are warnings, not crimes. Something ancient is returning. Cults are waking. And Elias is the only one who remembers how to stop it… if he can survive long enough to speak the final Word.

Earth is gone—destroyed and occupied, leaving nothing for humanity to return to. Now, scattered across the cosmos, humans endure a harsh existence as refugees, immigrants, and, worst of all, mercenaries. Stripped of their memories and easily manipulated, they are forced into deadly trials that test the limits of their newfound superpowers, intellect, and reflexes. The survivors are then thrust into galactic battles, fighting for causes they do not understand, their pasts and the memory of Earth completely erased. Their only motivation is to survive another day in the vast, unforgiving universe. Meanwhile, a powerful and enigmatic secret society known as the Enix schemes to dominate the mightiest empires in the galaxy: the Zurix and the Lunix. The Zurix, a collection of over ten competing planetary empires, are locked in a perpetual and bloody struggle for supremacy. Despite sharing a common origin, they ruthlessly wage war against one another, all with the ultimate goal of reaching a single, coveted planet. Their path, however, is blocked by the formidable Lunix Empire. For six millennia, the Lunix have stood as a unified and unyielding force, their dominion stretching across half the universe and encompassing the most resource-rich worlds. Their legions of enhanced super-soldiers have proven invincible, repelling every Zurix invasion for centuries. But the tides are turning. The once-mighty Lunix Empire is now decaying from within, weakened by corruption and internal strife. Seizing this opportunity, the Zurix are closing in, eager to dismantle their ancient rivals and claim the ultimate prize. Yet, unknown to both empires, the Enix have their own vision for the future—a new world order that will forever alter the fabric of the universe. Into this maelstrom of conflict awakens Noor, a human stripped of his past. Thrown into the brutal trials, he discovers a rare and potent ability: the power of Imagination. This power allows him to materialize any object he can envision, though it is bound by certain limitations. Complementing this is his photographic memory, which enables him to recall a vast catalog of creations for battle. Noor understands that true strength lies not in raw power but in intellect. Every conflict is a test of tactics, strategy, and wit. He is not alone. Noor will soon unite with seven other humans, each possessing unique abilities. Together, they will fight in wars they do not comprehend, all in a desperate search for their identity, the truth, and a place to call home. Should Noor succeed in gathering the coveted artifacts that all factions seek, he may not only reclaim what was lost but also rise to become the Lord of the Stars.
