Ember Amane Ch

Axel Thorn never asked to become a Labyrinth Master, but when a mysterious system binds to his soul, he’s thrust into a world of monsters, adventurers, and labyrinths. Armed with unconventional knowledge and a peculiar AI, Axel’s journey takes an unexpected turn as he discovers his system isn’t functioning the way it should. With his labyrinth plagued by glitches and dangers lurking at every corner, Axel must adapt to a chaotic new reality where the rules are always shifting. In a world of cutthroat labyrinth masters and ambitious adventurers, survival means bending the chaos to his will—before it consumes him entirely.

This red dragon came from the vast wilderness, coveting all the powers of the world. He has held countless titles: Mountain Fury, Purgatorial Calamity, Red Emperor, Ember Dragon… The world trembles under the shadow of the great dragon. He ignited the surge of the magical industrial revolution. In the empire he established, wyverns roar, cannon fire resounds, steel behemoths appear in the sky and on the earth, and disasters from other worlds run rampant. “Submit, or die.” Cassius spread his sky-shading wings, looking down upon the trembling humans, elves, and dwarves beneath him, and spoke thus. ……… A story of a red dragon with a built-in player template conquering, ruling, and transforming another world. (Pseudo D&D, Fourth Catastrophe, Red Dragon)

A century has passed since Emperor Korrun's fall, yet the world remains divided. The factions of the Four Realms vie for power, their goals often at odds with the fragile peace that exists. Whispers of the Sunfire Engine resurface, claiming the ancient weapon still lies buried somewhere, waiting to be unleashed. In the Tideborn Isles, the Ocean Blades prepare for war, while the Sea Shapers struggle to rebuild bridges of peace. In the Emberlands, the Phoenix Legion marches, the Ashen Guild experiments, and the Emberkin Rebellion rises. The Skyhold Peaks are torn between Windcallers and Stormwings, and the Stonecrest Valleys hold fast against the shadows of the Hollow Syndicate. Amid this chaos, two young souls-Kaelina of the Tides and Zyric of the Emberlands-find themselves caught between these factions. Bound by fate and divided by loyalty, they must navigate a world of shifting alliances, ancient secrets, and elemental power. Their choices will determine whether the world finds balance once more-or falls into ruin. (This story was inspired by "Avatar: The last airbender")

"If it is peace you seek then close your eyes and pray you are reborn in another world...because this one is broken beyond repair." Following the spawning of demons by fallen angels to wage war on heaven, mankind found itself caught in the wake of a holy war. To survive, they shed their humanity by contracting with demons, becoming shape shifters, blood suckers and spell casters. When the war ended, it left the world divided and those who had sold their souls were shackled by an agreement between heaven and a newly created hell, which made them incapable of harming the pure. And for a while, the world was peaceful again. But that changed when the gates of hell creaked open years later. Cause? A little girl with an inherited curse and her brother, who is recognized as heaven's greatest sin.

Orion wasn’t expecting a prophecy in the bustling market of Cerros-7, where he had been deployed on a mission, when a woman cloaked in tattered veils, her eyes glowing like embers from a dying fire suddenly appeared in front of him. With a grip as cold as death itself, she seized Orion’s hand and, in a voice that cut through him like a blade, she whispered: "The sky must fall for your star to rise, A veil of despair shrouds crimson skies. Through ash and ember, your brilliance softly flies, A light reborn where endless darkness lies."

Bạn đã bao giờ khám phá ra bản chất thực sự của thế giới mà chúng ta đang sống là gì chưa? Tôi đang cố gắng khắc họa nó vào thế giới do chính mình tạo ra, khác họa thế giới chúng ta đang sống dưới một góc nhìn khác, một góc nhìn tội lỗi hơn thông qua rất nhiều câu chuyện. Bi thương có, vui vẻ có, tràn đầy hi vọng cũng như tuyệt vọng, những điều đó, giúp các bạn có cái nhìn khách quan hơn từ thế giới trong trí tưởng tượng của tôi đến thế giới của chúng ta. Đây là một câu chuyện với một khuôn mẫu khá đơn giản về cuộc chiến giữa cái được cho là chính và cái được cho là tà. Nhưng bạn có thể cho tôi biết: Đâu mới là chính? Đâu mới là tà?

Having been a lawyer practicing law in Dubai, I’ve always been cautious and methodical in both my professional and personal life. However, I recently found myself a victim of an online scam, which reminded me that anyone, regardless of profession, can fall prey to deception.It all began when a colleague at my law firm introduced me to an investment website claiming high returns in a short period. The site appeared legitimate, well-designed, with detailed information about the investment process, glowing testimonials, and impressive returns. He showed me screenshots of his own profits, which encouraged me to try it myself. Despite my usual caution, I decided to start small, investing AED 30,000 to test the platform.To my surprise, within 24 hours, my investment grew to AED 75,000. The site continued to display success stories from other users, further convincing me of its legitimacy. However, when I tried to withdraw my profits, I was met with silence. Emails and messages went unanswered, and the website’s fake testimonials kept appearing, but no one responded to my inquiries. It became clear that I had been scammed.Desperate to recover my money, I searched for solutions online and came across a company called Digital Hack Recovery, which specializes in recovering funds lost to online scams. My colleague, who had also invested and lost money, joined me in reaching out to them.From the moment we contacted Digital Hack Recovery, their team was professional, empathetic, and thorough. They quickly got to work on our cases and explained the recovery process step by step. Within a few days, they successfully traced and recovered the full amount—AED 30,000 each for both of us.The entire process was quick, efficient, and seamless, and we were both relieved to know we hadn’t lost our money permanently. Looking back, this experience taught us a valuable lesson about the dangers of online scams, even those that seem credible. As professionals, we thought we were too careful to fall for such traps, but the sophistication of these scams was shocking.We are incredibly grateful to Digital Hack Recovery for their expertise and support in recovering our funds. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend contacting Digital Hack Recovery. They truly made all the difference.

Battling the pain of loosing ones parents on the same day, was just something else. Since Ember was the oldest of three children with her being the only girl, she had to take up the responsibility of taking care of her siblings. After her parents were laid to rest in the holy forest, her once good uncle that pretended to love them, came back to claim all of her parents properties. As if that wasn't enough, he still went ahead to take them along, and also turn them into his slaves. Immediately Ember turned eighteen years old, it was expected that she would turn into a beautiful white wolf immediately, since she was the only person among her siblings that took after their ancestral trait, which was the white wolf. Unfortunately, she didn't turn as he had expected because she was a late shifter. Without even caring about what her fate would be, he wasted no time in selling her to a local emcee that sold her to Alpha Dino, in return. After Ember was sold in the auction to Alpha Dino, it was then that her actual nightmare began. She was subjected to live in hallucinations and uncertainty. Being overwhelmed by her desire to runaway from the castle in anyway possible, Ember was willing to give anything possible, just to make sure that it works out for her. After she had expressed her feelings to Lady Jade, the matron, she supported her and was also willing to give her all the necessary advice and she also went as far as giving her a map of how the whole castle looked like as that would help facilitate her escape. The whole plans keep moving positively, until one of the maidens who has always wanted the alpha to give her an attention, overheard them, and told the alpha about the whole matter. The alpha being overwhelmed with anger and rage, immediately stabbed his aunt on her right eye. He decided to chop her whole body off, until she finally gave up the ghost. At this point, Ember had given up on herself, as she knew that it would be an impossible journey for her to ever leave that castle, again. At this very moment, she gave up on the chances of her leaving the castle. As the days went by, Alpha Dino, intensified his wickedness and cruelty towards Ember, even to the extent that he tried to slice her belly open with a cutlass. He was only stopped on time by his friend, Alpha Jimmy, who came to discuss a business proposition with him. He sat Alpha Dino down, and tried to educate him about the dangers of what he was doing. Alpha Dino, misunderstood the whole issue, and asked him to leave his house. Since it was the first time that such a thing had happened between them, Alpha Jimmy swore that he would make sure that he saves Ember from the cruel grip of Alpha Dino. While Jimmy was trying to find a way to get Ember out of Alpha Dino's shackles of cruelty, Ember's curiosity led her into finding a huge library in the castle. There was a huge book at the center of the library. The book had ‘Death’ boldly inscripted in the book. Ember went ahead to check the contents of the book. The book contained the names of every single person which Alpha Dino had massacred. She was forced to go through all the names in the book and she came across her parent's names. All she has ever been told as a child was that her parents were killed in a car accident. But seeing their names there was certainly no coincidence. She decided to try and do some research to see if her hypothesis were correct. She asked Jimmy questions about the incident, but he claimed to have no idea. She did everything she could while remaining confined in the castle, but no effort seemed to prove worth it.

Synopsis of The Shadows Ascend In a world shattered by the appearance of the Tower of Eternity and the subsequent rifts that ravaged the Earth, humanity is forced to survive amidst the ruins. The Tower looms over the remnants of civilization, offering unimaginable power to those who can ascend its endless floors—but at a terrible cost: the soul of the climber. Kael Valen, a bitter and cold-hearted survivor, is one of the Rift Servants—a class of people forced to venture into dangerous rifts to collect valuable resources for the Syndicates that now rule the Earth. Once a hopeful boy, Kael’s life was ruined when his family was torn apart by the Tower’s arrival. Sold into servitude, Kael has learned to trust no one, survive at all costs, and most of all, hate the Tower and everything it stands for. When Kael stumbles upon an ancient, mysterious power within a rift—the Null Nexus, an unshaped shadow that offers strange, unexplainable abilities—his world changes. But this power, still untamed, is not without its risks. As Kael fights to control it, he realizes that the Nexus is more than just a tool for survival: it’s a key to understanding the true purpose of the Tower—and perhaps a way to destroy it once and for all. Joined by Lira Thorne, a ruthless climber with a deadly secret, Kael must navigate the deadly rifts, betrayals, and twisted politics of the new world, all while avoiding the watchful eyes of the Eclipsed Order, an ancient cult that worships the Tower’s power, and the Syndicates that seek to control the resources. But with each passing day, Kael’s control over the Nexus weakens, and the shadow begins to consume more than just his body. In a world where survival is a constant gamble and power comes at the price of humanity, Kael must decide: will he use the power of the Nexus to destroy the Tower and save the remnants of Earth? Or will he succumb to the darkness within, losing himself in the process? "The higher you climb, the darker your shadow becomes." --- This synopsis builds on the key themes of survival, power, and sacrifice, while giving a glimpse into Kael's motivation and the dark world he's navigating.
