Scary Reflection

“Everything is shrouded by uncertainty; but the Unknown, is something that I fancy.” -Them Every conundrum present in every universe is as scary as Death. It is very much contrary to being aware of the way of life, as it is the Unprecedented itself—it cannot be foretold. Being interested in studying the unknown is scary as it purely is. How about liking it? Or worse, requesting to live in it? Isn't that crazy? “I am just a college student. How did I end up in this kind of situation?” “Haah...The child's idiocy caused this much damage? What's gonna happen to my perfect life?” They are billions of light years away from one another, so how come one day, they met each other? Is it because of Fate? Was it stated in a prophecy? Or because of the Unknown?

One day the goddess Raia tells him that he is the chosen one and offers him to kill the three remaining kings in exchange for information about his lost past. Aria has her own plans. He sets out with the team Aria gives him and his first goal is to kill the water king Edmir, but Revy has plans of his own.

In a sprawling metropolis where the lines between reality and illusion blur, Lara Harper begins to notice the cracks in her world. After a string of inexplicable events—time loops, unsettling strangers, and a photograph of herself in a place she’s never been—Lara is thrust into a psychological nightmare. Her once-familiar city seems alive, shifting and pulsating as though it has a will of its own. The photograph, which shouldn’t exist, becomes the key to unraveling the mystery. Within its frame lurks a shadowy figure, growing clearer with each passing moment. Every clue Lara uncovers only deepens her paranoia: an enigmatic neighbor with cryptic warnings, a seemingly kind friend with secrets of his own, and an eerie text message from someone who knows far too much. As Lara delves deeper, she discovers she isn’t the only one trapped in the city’s grasp. Victor, her steady but haunted upstairs neighbor, and Margot, the alluring and enigmatic woman from down the hall, are drawn into the unfolding madness. Together, they uncover fragments of a terrible truth: their reality is a fractured mirror, reflecting something far darker on the other side. But the city isn’t just breaking—it’s hungry. As time and space collapse around her, Lara must confront the figure in the photograph, the twisted nature of her memories, and the possibility that she is both the hunter and the hunted in this surreal nightmare. In Reflections of the Damned, sanity is fragile, trust is fleeting, and every choice inches Lara closer to the truth—or her destruction. Will she shatter the mirror, or will it shatter her?

"After a crimson meteor streaked across the sky, human civilization came to a halt. From that day on, mankind could no longer craft a rocket, a nuclear bomb, an airplane, or even a car. The pyramid of civilization built upon modern science collapsed with a deafening crash. Yet, the disaster extended far beyond that. As the crimson meteor descended, a gray world emerged, like a ghostly reflection behind a mirror, dragging the civilized world bit by bit into a chaotic abyss. In this era, human life is as insignificant as dust. In this era, humanity shines as brilliantly as the stars. As the great edifice crumbles, someone sees an actor standing tall amidst the ruins of civilization. Clad in a blood-red cloak, sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, the curtain of a new age slowly unfurls behind him. He spreads his arms wide..."

The earth, covered in layers of ash, seems like a mirror reflecting the hidden wounds deep within him.

What is a man, if not a vessel of hidden truths and whispered deceptions? Beneath the fragile facade lies a labyrinth of secrets—truths buried so deeply they intertwine with the lies we tell ourselves just to survive another day. The masks we wear may fool the world, but they cannot hide the fractures within. Even those we hold closest, the ones we entrust with our hearts, may be the very hands carving unseen wounds into our souls, feeding them to the monsters lurking in the shadows. Blood tells no lies, flowing only when life is claimed, but even its crimson clarity is no guide to the truth. How does one find what is real when their very existence is a fractured mirror, splintered into shards that reflect only distorted glimpses of an identity lost? Each shard offers the promise of clarity, yet together, they form nothing but ruin. To uncover the truth is to brave the labyrinth, to face the darkness, and to risk losing what little remains of the self. For in the end, can a man truly hold a reflection if he no longer knows who—or what—he truly is?

Someone appears, silent as a shadow. They understand every thought, every wound, every quiet dream you’ve hidden away. Who are they? They look at you with your own memories in their eyes, wearing a life that feels like yours—and yet it’s not. They claim to be you. Would you trust them? Would you let them in, knowing they might reveal the parts of yourself you’ve buried the deepest? And if they are indeed a part of you… are you forced to accept them? Do you want to?

A Super short story about two patients in a hospital with a terminal illness.

"Aetheya" An Aetheya is a unique ability that an individual can manifest after experiencing a significant, life-altering event. This power is deeply tied to a person’s beliefs, life experiences, soul, and their true nature. It is not merely a tool or skill—it is a reflection of who they are at their core, and it shapes the choices they make and the path they walk. An Aetheya is a manifestation of one’s inner self, and it is only unlocked when a person undergoes an event that drastically shifts their understanding of the world. This transformative event acts as a catalyst, revealing the latent power within them. Due to the profound and often personal nature of this occurrence, only around 25% of the world’s population is capable of manifesting an Aetheya. The form and function of an Aetheya can vary greatly depending on the individual, but at its heart, it is a reflection of their deepest desires and motivations. However, when a person's desires begin to overpower their sense of self-control, the power can be misused. In these cases, those who give in to their darker urges are called Arai. These individuals are led by the Disasters, the malevolent leaders of this faction, who use their power for selfish or destructive purposes. They often fall into chaos, driven by greed, vengeance, or unchecked ambition. On the other side, there are those who are able to control their desires and channel their Aetheya toward virtuous goals. These individuals are known as Edeyan, and they are guided by the leaders known as Miracles. The Edeyans and Miracles represent the force of good in the world, standing as protectors and defenders against the misuse of power. Their strength comes from their unwavering virtue and their desire to help others, ensuring that their powers serve the greater good. While the Arai and Edeyan factions stand in stark contrast, they share the same origin: the unlocking of one’s Aetheya through a life-changing event. The key difference lies in how they choose to wield their power.
