Seth Quinn, a slightly below average IT worker, developed a unique ability. The Puppeteers Threads. Will he and those he loves survive in this hellish new world? Will his new ability lead him to a life of greatness he always dreamed of? Could he become a Master of Puppets? ----------------------------------------------------- Hello there, this book came after reading many of the others on here. I found that there were many things I wished they explored or genres that had more entries in them. So instead of waiting for them to be made, I decided to do it myself and free my trapped creativity. I hope you enjoy it. This is currently being written in the free time I have beside a job with a tricky schedule. I am trying to keep to a schedule of doing 4 - 5 chapters a week at minimum but will do more if i can. To make up for it I will try making the chapters between 1200 - 1400 words on average, to give you a little more to read, again sometimes even more. I hope one day I will be able to work on this more and deliver more chapters and future novels. Warnings for graphic descriptions of death and injury. There will be bloodshed. You have been warned.

Kael Morrin, a determined yet struggling archaeologist, stumbles upon a mysterious glowing shard during an excavation. In an instant, he is transported to the magical and perilous world of Aetherion—a realm where the sky is fractured, and the elemental continents teeter on the edge of ruin. Each region suffers from catastrophic instability: volcanic eruptions, endless storms, and crumbling civilizations. Aetherion’s survival depends on a long-lost relic shattered into shards, said to be the key to restoring balance. Thrown into this broken world, Kael joins forces with Rhea, a fierce warrior from the Water Continent, and Aren, a cunning rogue mage from the Air Continent. Together, they embark on a treacherous quest to retrieve the shards scattered across the elemental lands. Along the way, Kael learns about Aetherion’s tragic history, its people’s suffering, and the tyrant Kaelith, whose ambition once plunged the world into chaos. As Kael gathers the shards, memories of Kaelith begin to resurface—memories that are his own. He realizes with mounting dread that he is the reincarnation of Kaelith, the very man responsible for shattering Aetherion’s sky. The shards are not just relics; they are fragments of Kael’s own fractured soul, broken during Kaelith’s fall from grace. To heal Aetherion, Kael must confront the shadow of his former self, who tempts him with the promise of ultimate power and a second chance to rule. As the weight of his past threatens to consume him, Kael must make an unthinkable choice. Reuniting the shards will mend the sky and save Aetherion, but it will cost Kael his memories, identity, and any chance at redemption in the eyes of the people he is trying to save. Faced with the ultimate test, Kael embarks on a journey of self-discovery, redemption, and sacrifice. In the end, he must decide whether to embrace his past mistakes or let them go entirely to give Aetherion the hope of a future. Will he succumb to the darkness of Kaelith’s legacy, or will he rise above and become the hero this fractured world so desperately needs?

Potential trigger warnings: > A FL that may seem (to some) like they are being groomed due to 'true age' difference. > A MC that gets a little 'thirsty' a little 'young' but tries to 'keep her own pants on' until the proper age. > A toxic family environment willing to force an unloved child into the role of a crossdresser. A child that grew more than okay with it. > 'Pretty Good Dad' intentionally 'picked on' by his 'sweet daughter' for being a relatively 'minor obstacle'. Seriously, you were warned, average fathers with teenagers. Do not engage your trauma.

In the Rusted City, where magic hums through copper wires and clock towers loom like silent sentinels, Astra Valen lives an unassuming life. But their world is built on secrets—secrets buried beneath the ticking streets and whispered in the shadows of forgotten history. For as long as Astra can remember, a rhythmic ticking has echoed in their chest, a sound they’ve always dismissed as a quirk of their body. Until one day, the ticking falters, and Astra collapses, revealing a truth that will change their life forever: their heart is not flesh and blood, but a Clockwork Core—a masterpiece of magical engineering created by a long-lost craftsman known only as the Clockmaker. As Astra grapples with their identity, the city begins to unravel. Machines malfunction, time bends, and the fragile balance of Aetherium—the magical lifeblood of the Rusted City—teeters on the brink of collapse. The Council of Tides hides the truth, while a shadowy force stirs, intent on harnessing Astra’s heart to reset time itself. With the help of an eccentric inventor burdened by his past and a fiercely loyal best friend, Astra must unravel the mystery of their creation.
