Violet And Veneer

Violet Hell

It is said that in a small town in Greece called "Fiskardo," a little girl was born with severe rashes on her delicate skin. It was initially believed to be the result of medical negligence or a possible allergy. However, medical tests revealed that the baby did not suffer from any allergies or diseases, nor was there any sign of medical negligence, as all procedures were carried out correctly. The little girl was subjected to medication, even though this posed a risk at her young age. Unfortunately, no treatment or procedure brought satisfactory results, and soon after, the baby died in an agonizing way—her body suddenly exploded. Not long after, similar cases began occurring all over the world, where babies died suddenly and without any apparent reason. It was initially believed to be caused by some kind of virus, but no evidence of such was found. Still, a pandemic ensued, which came to be known as "The Ghost Pandemic" because people had to isolate themselves without knowing what they were protecting against. One day, against all odds, a baby was born in "Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil," with a peculiar feature: scales. At first, these scales were thought to be mere physical deformities that could be treated. However, to everyone’s surprise, this baby did not die suddenly like the others. In fact, the baby grew and became a five-year-old boy, living in a world gripped by fear of extinction due to the plummeting birth rate. Even more astonishing was the fact that this child could breathe underwater. What was initially dismissed as a deformity turned out to have a purpose. Researchers discovered that the child's parents and ancestors had spent most of their lives in the water, which may have influenced the development of this trait. Most surprising of all, the child’s genetics showed marine adaptations that were not inherited but evolved—making him the first recorded semi-human in history. This breakthrough helped scientists understand the mysterious deaths of the babies. It was found that these infants were born with remnants of physical abilities, referred to as "powers," that their fragile bodies could not handle, leading to their sudden and disturbing deaths. Thanks to this discovery, methods were developed to contain these powers until the children reached an age where their bodies could adapt to them. Humanity was saved from an imminent extinction, and over time, the number of humans with supernatural abilities began to increase. In 2006, a baby named Ayax was born in Australia. No one knows who his parents were, and he had to survive on his own from a very young age, living on the streets. One day, however, a mysterious individual captured him and took him to a laboratory. There, they experimented on him, combining the powers of other innocent people in search of the perfect remnant. Ayax developed an ability that would forever change the course of history.

Remembrance And Recollection

Wishes are subjective, and those who are reborn are nothing but hypocrites unworthy of the first. Words crumble to ashes, and memories of their origins resonate within fractured bodies. Amid a dream that is no mere illusion but a radiant illumination, shadows grow deeper, and the truth reveals itself, a child’s dream begins. I woke up in a world of uncertainty, a realm twisted and cruel, where swords clash, blood stains the ground, and monstrous beasts stalk the living. Flying ships drift above boundless chains that shackle the sky, while wars rage endlessly with weapons both ancient and unknown. It’s a place where beauty and terror coexist, where joy flickers like a fragile flame before being consumed by shadow. I am Celm, a man whose memories feel like shards of glass, fractured, distant, and painful. I don’t know who I truly am or why this world feels both alien and hauntingly familiar. The forsaken lands around me pulse with disasters and despair, as people endure a cycle of torment they cannot escape. And yet, hidden within this chaos lies a haunting beauty, a world that shifts and bends under the weight of forgotten truths. In this labyrinth of suffering and wonder, whispers of the Forsaken World linger, a place where the truth is absolute, where the laws of other realms erode, and where even gods lose their divinity. Every step I take feels like a descent into something deeper, a dream interwoven with reality and riddled with secrets. What is my place in this nightmare? What lies at the heart of a dream so vivid it burns brighter than light itself? I don’t know where the path leads, but I do know one thing: the truth, however unbearable, cannot be avoided forever.

Blood Violet: My Underground Journey With My Pickaxe

Space rifts appeared on Earth, leading to the arrival of creatures humanity once thought were nothing more than myths. These beings descended, causing catastrophic events across the planet. Carnage. That was one of the many words used to describe the world after their descent. Luckily, every disaster comes with an opportunity. A game-like panel appeared in front of humanity, granting them abilities and a fighting chance. But even with this newfound power, humanity lacked the time to adapt. Pushed into a corner, they were forced to abandon Earth. With the help of the elves, humanity relocated to a newly discovered, unoccupied planet—a fresh start and a vast world waiting to be explored. Jeff, a youth with a bright smile and an energetic aura, was among the few lucky ones to awaken an innate ability. Not just any ability—it was unique, one that placed him on par with the strongest survivors of humanity. His ability? Weapon Manifestation. It allowed him to conjure weapons out of thin air, weapons that could evolve into legendary forms. The strongest survivor wielded Sword Manifestation, a weapon that cut through armies. The second strongest wielded Spear Manifestation, dominating the battlefield with precision and power. Finally, the day came when Jeff fulfilled the requirements to evolve his ability. Everyone was eager to see what weapon he’d manifest. Would it be a sword? A spear? Perhaps an axe, hammer, bow, staff, shield, or even a gun? But as the light settled, the weapon revealed itself. “A PICKAXE?!” everyone exclaimed, their disbelief echoing.
