Stone Breathing Demon Fall

Sword in Stone

Artie had lived her whole life feeling like a joke. Whether it came to her full name, her parents ‘abandoning’ her and her next door neighbours taking her in, or finding out that her lover was part of a cult and was cheating on her. Said lover then stabbed her. It felt like she just couldn’t catch a break. So when she found herself in a puddle of her own blood, staring up at a fake painted sky, she could only find humour in the situation, and prayed that the next life was kinder. Only she woke up. In the same body, with the same stab wound, only in a world full of magic, swords, and a dead King Arthur? Yup. The round table existed, the knights existed, and so did everyone of legend that she’d heard about as a child. Only it was the beginning of their tales. Nothing had happened yet, except the formation of Camelot, the crowning of the King, and then the sudden death of the King of Legend, King Arthur Pendragon. She would have thought this was another cruel joke if everyone wasn’t wandering around in mourning clothes. If this was a practical joke, it wasn’t a very funny one. Artie was tired. She’d already spent almost a decade working as a police officer, and then a detective, so she felt like she had earned her peace. Especially after all the shit she’d been put through, but someone had different plans. And Artie’s life wasn’t quite done yet. In fact, it seemed like in the eyes of the creatures of this world, this was where she was always meant to be. The time she spent getting her ass handed to her in the other dimension? Just a warm up. And now she was expected to just…go along with what everyone else wanted her to do? Including magical beings who were responsible for taking her from one dimension to another. Artie felt like she was in over her head, even if there were several concerned, attractive knights around her. She wasn’t sure if she was going to run away from all the new responsibilities, or embrace them. She wasn’t a rule breaker by nature, but maybe now was the time to change?

The Fall of Shadows

In the kingdom of Nuralar, once a mighty land forged from the ruins of an ancient empire, a forgotten secret lies buried beneath its stone walls. For centuries, peace has reigned, but beneath this tranquility, shadows of a dark past stir. King Arlen, the last ruler of Nuralar, vanished mysteriously while searching for a powerful, ancient magic said to have been lost with the fall of the empire. With his disappearance, the kingdom's hope for restoring this lost power seems to fade. His son, Prince Kalen, now ascends the throne under the heavy burden of his father's unexplained vanishing. Determined to uncover the truth behind Arlen’s disappearance, Kalen embarks on a dangerous journey to find the ancient secrets that could save or destroy Nuralar. Along the way, he encounters old allies, treacherous foes, and hidden enemies, all while facing the truth about his father’s search for the lost magic that once sustained their kingdom. As Kalen unravels the mysteries of the past, he discovers that his father's search was more than a quest for power—it was an effort to prevent a dark and secretive cult from resurrecting the ancient empire. This cult, descendants of those who once controlled the lost magic, has long awaited the chance to reclaim their power and use it to reshape the world. Kalen must race against time to stop the cult from unleashing the same destructive force that led to the empire’s fall. But as he delves deeper into the kingdom's history, Kalen realizes that the true power is not just a force of magic, but an ancient curse tied to the royal bloodline. To save his kingdom, he must confront the darkest parts of his own lineage and decide whether to embrace or break the cycle that has haunted his family for generations. In a world where the past’s shadow threatens to consume the future, Prince Kalen’s courage and determination will be tested like never before. Will he restore his kingdom to its former glory, or will the fall of shadows consume all that he holds dear?

Carsa(The Black Stone)

The story revolves around "Carsa," a kingdom burdened by poverty and its worship of a sacred black stone called "Aspera." Believed to be a divine blessing, the stone has only brought suffering and sacrifice to the kingdom’s people, including Alfero, the protagonist. Alfero, raised in extreme poverty, loses his father, a guard protecting the stone, and his mother to starvation. His sister, Althea, also falls victim to the kingdom’s misplaced devotion to the stone. Alfero sees the stone not as a symbol of divinity but as a curse that has robbed him of everything. He plans to steal Aspera, enlisting the help of his sister Althea and his friend Ragna. They devise an intricate scheme to create an illusion of divine movement during a religious ceremony, leveraging the kingdom’s blind faith in the stone. The plan succeeds temporarily, but complications arise, leading to Althea’s capture and execution by a divine emissary, Rix. Her sacrifice enables Alfero and Ragna to escape with the stone. At the border, a conflict ensues between Alfero and Ragna over selling the stone. Alfero, consumed by grief and rage, kills Ragna, realizing the stone’s immense but meaningless weight as a symbol of sacrifice and suffering. Alone, he reflects on the devastating cost of his quest, ultimately confronting the futility of the stone’s so-called divine significance. The story ends with Alfero back in his home, holding the stone that has destroyed his life. In a symbolic act, he acknowledges its worthlessness, yet he remains shackled by the weight of its legacy. The stone, embodying a meaningless blessing, stands as a tragic reminder of a world that venerates emptiness at the cost of human life and dignity.
