Sara Carrolli Throne Of Glass

Forge and Glass is a journey of transformation, where Alaric, a young man with untapped potential, begins his quest as a raw, unshaped soul. His journey is a crucible, much like the process of forging metal in fire—burning away impurities, refining the core, and molding it into something strong, beautiful, and purposeful. The challenges Alaric faces are not just physical but spiritual, testing him to the limits of his mind, body, and soul. In a world where fire and glass hold opposing meanings—fire symbolizing strength and perseverance, glass representing fragility and truth—Alaric must learn to balance both extremes within himself. He discovers that the true alchemy of life lies in embracing the tension between strength and vulnerability. Through the trials, lessons, and betrayals he endures, he learns that his true power is found not by avoiding the cracks but by understanding and embracing them. Like a glassmaker shaping fragile material into something beautiful and resilient, Alaric’s journey becomes a process of self-discovery and deep personal growth. He faces hardships that shatter his perception of the world, only to rebuild himself with a clearer, wiser understanding of who he is and what he is capable of. His story is an invitation for readers to reflect on their own paths—how we are all shaped by the challenges we face, how moments of fragility can reveal our greatest strengths, and how the process of self-transformation is often a painful but necessary step towards achieving our fullest potential. Forge and Glass is more than just a story of overcoming trials—it’s a profound exploration of the human spirit. It asks: What happens when we embrace our imperfections? What becomes possible when we stop hiding our brokenness and instead let it reveal our deepest wisdom? This book will inspire anyone who has ever faced adversity, found themselves shattered, and risen from the ashes stronger and more self-aware.

I'm not a difficult person to please... I never wanted to be invinccible. But I will fight with my blood for my goals. Try to compete with me, and I'll match you. Play dirty, and I'll bring the sky down on you. My patience isn’t as long as you think, and my sword is reckless, following no rules! So, don't provoke me.

A World That Loops Through Dead Civilizations The world is caught in an endless cycle. Every seven days, reality resets—merging with a different, ruined version of Earth. One week, the streets of Seoul are overrun by medieval demons. The next, they are swallowed by a dystopian nightmare where humanity never existed. Each reset wipes away memories, forcing survivors to start over in an ever-changing battlefield of dungeons, monsters, and forgotten civilizations. But Han Kyung-min remembers. Betrayed by those he trusted, left to die in the ashes of a fallen world, he awakens with a class deemed worthless—Soul Archivist, an E-rank, non-combat role meant only to record the dead. Yet death itself holds secrets, and within the echoes of the fallen, he finds something the system never intended. A hidden power. A forbidden path. A throne built on the bones of the forsaken. As the cycles grow deadlier and the truth behind the resets begins to unravel, Kyung-min must rise—not as a hero, but as the ruler of the undead. Survive. Adapt. Conquer. The world resets in seven days. This time, he will not be forgotten.

In a universe where power is not just inherited but measured, where noble houses rule with an iron grip, and where the weak are forgotten, one exile will uncover a secret never meant to be known. Banished from the celestial courts and cast into the void, Kael Veyrin was supposed to die. Yet, against fate itself, he survives. In the depths of oblivion, he stumbles upon an artifact older than the Dominion itself, whispering truths that have been buried for millennia. The system that governs all life is incomplete. The noble houses are not what they seem. And beyond the furthest stars, something watches, waiting. Hunted by assassins, pursued by a relentless enforcer, and entangled in a war he never sought, Kael must navigate a web of power, betrayal, and forgotten history. As the fabric of reality begins to unravel, one question remains— Was his fall a punishment... or a design?

On the Orandia Continent, strong individuals and geniuses have never been absent. Whether it is the noble Elves, the resilient Giants, or the majestic Dragons, the legacies and families of all races stand firm on this ancient land. The civilization of the continent has endured the test of time, with its glorious history interwoven with bloodshed. However, this continent is not a peaceful paradise. The dark tides of the Demon Race surge forth, and the magical beasts ravage the homes of humans, Elves, and other races, slowly closing in on the heart of every civilization. Disaster is inevitable, yet in this time of crisis, internal strife between factions and empires still persists. In this turbulent land, who will shoulder the responsibility of changing the future? Who will reclaim control over the collapsing destiny? The wheels of fate begin to turn, and a boy who starts from humble beginnings is gradually advancing toward the pinnacle that will change the Orandia Continent. His name is Roy. A boy of ordinary origins, a child with nothing to his name, yet due to the favor of destiny and his unwavering determination, he paves a path that belongs to him. As Roy rises from a despised youth to a savior feared and admired by all the races of the continent, every step he takes is filled with hardship and challenges. Confronted with a chaotic situation, he must not only fight against the Demon Race and magical beasts but also find his own strength in every difficult decision. This is a story of growth, struggle, and sacrifice; a tale of how a hero rises from being an unknown nobody to ultimately changing the fate of the entire world. Watch as Roy rises through harsh trials, conquering past enemies, and ultimately standing atop the summit that is his alone, securing a place of his own.

This is a game of deities. This is a fallen world. This is an endless voyage. Amidst the ruins of a shattered reality, a race known as "humans" dares to stake their existence on the faint glimmer of hope. "I shall return unto you the trials we once endured," proclaims a man of benevolent smile as he stands atop the pinnacle of the world. With fluttering banners, he gazes upon the radiant tapestry of the cosmos. He points a single finger toward the distant stars. Boom! A thunderous explosion shatters the silence, echoing across the desolate landscape.

Our Female Lead didn’t exactly sign up to be the royal wife of a mad king—especially not in a medieval kingdom where betrayal is as common as bad fashion choices. One moment, she’s a modern woman living an average life, the next thing she knows, she’s transmigrated and stuck in an arranged marriage with a man who’s scarier than dragons and older than dirt! But hey, at least she’s rich now, right? Yea right! Life as a queen is far from glamorous. Between dodging family drama worthy of a royal soap opera, uncovering dangerous secrets that could bring the kingdom to its knees, and trying not to lose her mind to an annoying goddess system in her head that makes things more difficult rather than easier, she discovers something even worse— having a romance tie to Tristan, her handsome yet now off-limits step-son. Just what she needs, right? With her heart and life in constant jeopardy, the stakes couldn’t be higher. One thing’s for sure though: in Caeloria, the crown might be heavy, but it’s never boring.

Eirik Boris was never the type to accept a deal nor offer quickly, but with the girl in front of him, the riot that’s currently going on in the kingdom, and the rumor of the old king's bloodline, there are just too many things at stake. He looked at her with his eyes full of doubts, knowing very well that not only his life was at stake, but his region, too. But at the same time, if the girl in front of him is who she claimed to be, then a new beginning shall begin in the kingdom. It will be a new dawn of glory, a new turn—around, especially for the commoners. With a sharp blade in her hand, unlike anything Eirick had ever seen, which had a crystal that had a glinting red onyx at its end, the girl stepped into the long, narrow bridge, ready to prove that she was from the bloodline of the old king. “If you fail, I’ll surely deliver you to the king myself.” Eirik made it sound like a warning, and like he was not interested in her at the same time. But deep down, Eirick cared. If this girl turns out to be carrying the blood of the old king, then things will turn around for great. And if not, then he’d gladly deliver her to the king. At least, by doing that, he’d still have to keep his head, his family, and his region. And maybe, just maybe, the king will give him a limited punishment, but not a death sentence. “I won't fail,” Eirick heard her replying without turning, her voice full of uncertainty, though. Eirik held his daughter's hand, leading her back slowly, his armor bearer following, and then the nobles, a hundred of them who had come to watch the so-called girl who claimed to be carrying the blood of the old king venturing to the narrow bridge where she would recover what was left behind by the Old king himself. Before the old king vanished, he had said that only his true bloodline could cross the narrow bridge and retrieve what he had hidden there. Many people had come to attempt it, all of them claiming to be the son or daughter of the old king, and all of them had failed. This girl won't be an exception, at least, that's what they thought, not until the unexpected happened. As usual, the ghost guardian of the bridge, a being forged from magic with extraordinary abilities, emerged from the chasm of the bridge, standing tall and proud in front of the girl with a rapier in his hand. He didn't give the girl a chance to blink; he charged, the sound of metal against metal filling the air, sparkles flying out, and groaning of the two filled the atmosphere, too. And then, when everyone thought the girl would fail like the rest, they noticed her body shimmering, a great aura coming out of her body like a mist, her hair flaring in flame like a ghost rider, but she was not. And then, the blade radiated extra light, before the girl took full transformation herself. She easily bypassed the ghost as he presented his attack, moving with the grace of a leaf dancing in the wind, but in a blur that everyone hardly saw her moving. Before the ghost could wheel to face her, the girl struck him hard at the temple with the hilt of her blade, followed by a kick in the chest, which sent the ghost tumbling down the bridge. Normally, a ghost shouldn't feel attacked or get hit since he's partially invincible, but the girl was not ordinary either. She’s from the lineage of King Saul, making her the rightful heir to the kingdom of Agapanthus, and she just proved that to everyone by defeating an undefeatable foe.

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.

(WSA 2025 ENTRY!) Skyler's story was typical. He was publicly labeled a waste with no future as a Light — awakened individuals capable of wielding elemental powers. He thought that would be the end of it. But no, apparently that was not the case. He was teleported to the 'Battle Royale' to fight, even though he had zero powers and his age and potential were 100% ineligible! To make matters worse, he was not even the protagonist or transmigrator! He was just a freaking side character destined to die young in the story! And his death served only one purpose — to bring his sister closer to the protagonist! What a pitiful ending, right? However, unbeknownst to all, he wasn't meant to die but to become the best in two other realms, and they had altered the fate of that powerful King. Yet, there was a tiny problem — he didn't remember how he became overpowered in his past.

Ethan Vale was nothing special. A university dropout, a shut-in obsessed with brutal, punishing RPGs, and a man who knew strategy better than he knew real life.

Every time he dies, he returns to the same ruined citadel, his body restored but his mind forever scarred. Pain is not a fleeting experience here—it is absolute, relentless, and unforgettable.

But Ethan is determined to carve a path through the madness, to outthink the horrors that lurk in the shadows, and to uncover the truth behind the Hollow Domain. Because something is watching him. Something is waiting. And it wants him to suffer.
