At dawn. The light of dawn lingered, hesitant to arrive, while the remnants of the setting sun had long faded into darkness. Within the city shrouded in thin mist, the hidden churches in the shadows, veins clinging to the cracks in walls, the gnawing sounds echoing from the sewers, and the murmuring shadows... A lantern bearer strolled forward.

The Night Has Come, and kermesinus moon ascends in the sky. Hoarse whispers flow at the street corners, and brass steam machines spew out bloody mist. Your brain is singing a hymn, eyes are chanting a melody. Skin cracks, and flesh buds swell. Amidst the Mist, the wall of flesh that has devoured thousands of corpses wails endlessly— "Weep not, our players don't bite, they just want to play with you." Annan, the lone strategist, the top player, the savior of the mist-covered continent, the leader of the Thirteen Saints, the friend of the Twelve True Gods, the king of pioneers, "the Just", the Gatekeeper of the Fourth Calamity, the uncrowned deity, advised kindly.

Unexpectedly, I came with a status panel granting me infinite lifespan.

Five years ago, she saved him but lost the most precious thing a girl could have. Five years later, he descended from the heavens to protect her peace and guard her safety. Yet, she said, "I'm sorry, but we're not familiar." He smirked, "I know about the birthmark on your body. Wouldn't you say we are familiar?" She harbored secrets, feigned weakness, and endured for many years. While she abided by the world, she was cold and evasive towards him. He held a high social status, controlling everything around him. He was cold-hearted towards the world, yet only tender down to the bone to her. Until one day, he pulled the little guy who was hiding behind her, "Stealthily making a miniature version of me and you say we're not familiar?" A small treasure stood in front of her, blinking and staring at him, "Mom said I popped out from a stone crack!"

This novel is a bit fast-paced compared to current mainstream trends. It will delve into human nature and how far people are willing to go for meager profit. Most characters will be evil, and even the good ones only appear good because the actions they take align with their own interests, rather than being motivated by true goodness.

So to begin, this is technically a skyrim fanfic. Why isn't it in the fan-fics then? Simple! It's based on a game and I don't feel that counts as a fan-fic. Second, I've read like a few skyrim stories here lately. I liked them, as a bethesda fan boy... Well, now I need to take a crack at it. I literally start a new game of skyrim every new year. Its my tradition, so I felt I had to do this. If its bad, ah well. If its good, GREAT! Overall though, I feel we need more skyrim based stories or fan-fics. It has the perfect setting for the transmigration genre. Now read at your own risk.

Thousands of years ago humanity faced the worst nuclear war ever in history, which resulted in tragic genetic changes in the future generations which eventually divided the world’s population into two major categories named the Nobles and Needies. Both appeared to be normal humans in appearance, but Nobles became the rulers, having main power over all essential matters of the world including banking, media, entertainment, military, ways of communications and other political, social, cultural and financial matters, while the Needies were just the ordinary workers in factories and mansions owned by Nobles. Not only that, Nobles were engaged in barbaric yet apparently royal traditions of hunting and torturing the Needies, more specifically on their Saturday’s parties to satisfy both their unfulfilled hunger and to pay tribute and thankfulness to the God for creating them superiors. In such brutal reality, there rises a rebellious child named Keith Janes who, despite being among the Nobles, takes the most eminent stand against their barbarism and other sadistic desires with the use of his higher IQ than others.

**"Leave me alone! Please, just let me go!"** My voice cracked as I thrashed in his iron grip, but it was useless. He scooped me up effortlessly, his hold unyielding, carrying me off to a fate I couldn’t escape. This can’t be happening. Not now. Not like this. "I don’t want this," I whispered, my voice raw with terror. "Please… just let me go." My pleas barely reached his ears, or if they did, he didn’t care. His silence was louder than any threat, his indifference a dagger to my chest. A heartbeat later, my body hit the softness of a king-sized bed, but there was no comfort in it. My tears had nearly dried, leaving only silent sobs wracking my frame. I forced myself to speak, desperation lacing every syllable. "Luciano, please," I choked out. "If I’ve wronged you in any way, I’m sorry. But don’t punish me like this." A deafening crack split the air, and before I could react, fire exploded across my cheek. The force of the slap sent my head whipping to the side, my skin stinging from the brutal contact. The room pulsed with danger. **"No one calls me by my name,"** he growled, his voice like crushed glass—sharp, merciless. **"And no one tells me what to do."** His fingers curled under my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Cold, dark, and bottomless, his eyes held no mercy, no hesitation. "You will warm my bed," he murmured, his voice dangerously soft, laced with cruel intent. "You will satisfy my every craving, no matter how disastrous, no matter how dark." A wicked smirk ghosted over his lips, his grip tightening. "Because you are mine to break. And no one stops me." He leaned in, his breath fanning against my trembling lips. "Now… come here." --- Story by white pheonix

A cursed world drifts between life and something worse. Across its endless cities, ruined landscapes, and forgotten villages, strange things happen, things that no one can explain. People vanish without a sound, doors open to places that shouldn’t exist, and creatures watch from behind cracked mirrors. Each story follows different people trapped in these moments, ordinary lives spiraling into horror. Some fight, some run, and some never escape. But as the stories unfold, patterns emerge. Names repeat. Objects resurface. And slowly, a terrible truth begins to take shape: these nightmares aren’t random. They are pieces of something larger...something waking up. By the time the final story is told, the horror will no longer be a story at all.

The strongest warriors—the Four Saviors—stood against the tide… and fell. Humanity’s last cities crumbled. The gods never answered their prayers. The survivors soon realized the terrifying truth: This was not an invasion. It was an erasure.

Over ten millennia ago, humanity faced annihilation when the heavens and the earth united against a common foe. Awakeners, blessed with extraordinary abilities, stood shoulder to shoulder with gods and angels to battle the unthinkable—outer beings that threatened to consume existence itself. Through sacrifice and heroism, they forged the Veil, a fragile barrier that holds back the horrors beyond. Now, in a world ravaged by endless gates and spatial cracks, humanity clings to survival. Guilds and factions rise, awakening powers emerge, and the echoes of the ancient war reverberate in whispers of forgotten truths. But the Veil is weakening, and buried secrets threaten to surface.

And can humanity withstand the weight of the mysteries it has long sought to forget?

When the three glass city-states suspended in the sky began to bleed, the last utopia in the era of interstellar migration showed its cracks.

The surface echoes.

In the year 2149, humanity survives inside a colossal, AI-generated simulation called "The Archive", designed to preserve human consciousness after Earth’s collapse.
