The Original Realm

Official Art for the Novel at @the_original_realm (I am not sure if this is allowed, if its not please inform me and I will remove the link) Ten years ago, six-year-old Luke Mace witnessed the impossible. On a snowy mountain, during what was supposed to be an ordinary family hike, a monstrous creature emerged from a glowing portal and tore his life apart, killing his parents before vanishing into thin air. No one believed his story. The official explanation was an avalanche, but Luke has never forgotten the truth: the creature, and the strange portal, were real. Now sixteen, Luke joins a school field trip to the same mountain, only to find himself drawn back to the site of his deepest pain. As the snow falls and strange forces awaken, the portal reactivates, pulling Luke into Aethereon, a realm of ancient power and shifting landscapes, brimming with the mysterious energy known as Advent. In this otherworldly dimension, Luke discovers that the creature responsible for his parents' deaths, known only as The Anomaly, roams freely, a force of chaos that answers to no one. Determined to confront it and make it pay for what it took from him, Luke begins his journey, joined by a group of unlikely companions he meets along the way. Together, they navigate the perils of Aethereon, from its labyrinthine forests to its towering, crystalline peaks, facing foes born of Advent's raw power. As Luke learns to wield Advent himself, he realizes that his quest for revenge is far more complicated than he imagined. The Anomaly is more than just a killer-it is a being tied to the fabric of both Aethereon and Earth, and its existence threatens to unravel the balance between worlds. To survive and protect everything he loves, Luke must face not only the monster but the truths buried deep within himself. The Original Realm is a gripping story of loss, vengeance, and self-discovery, as Luke Mace ventures into the unknown to confront the past and forge his own path forward.

Lord Raven's Court

In the year 556 of the Runtallian Calendar, a war broke out in the eastern frontier of the Kingdom of Runtallia between the eastern overlord, Duke Gaverone Walruse of Regalia, and the barbarian chief-thane known as Dariun Drunzelle of the Shiradonii tribe, one of the Four Great Tribes of Norsmund, a nation that borders the Kingdom, deemed to be the land of brutes and savages. As the Duke of Regalia marches with his army to defend the disputed land of Kurlon, the barbarians have taken such an opportune moment to launch another incursion near the eastern border of Regalia near the town of Flendle, with the intention of dividing his army. However, despite accepting the town and the surrounding local lords' territories as lost cause in the war in favor of Kurlon– a newly discovered territory bountiful with veins of iron and other minerals– the Duke tasks his third son, Lord Velmund Walruse, along with his retinue, the Order of the Raven Knights, to fend off the attack. Now faced with the plight of defending the border town against a 5,000-strong Norsmundi army with his few yet skilled knights, along with an ill-equipped and undermanned militia, Lord Velmund has no choice but to fulfill his duty as a noble, relying upon his wits and his few but capable retainers to survive his first battle at the tender age of sixteen summers and winters. Contrary to his timid, youthful, and innocent appearance, however, lies his sly and scheming nature, evident by his fondness of dark magical arts specializing in illusion spells. Nevertheless, he himself has no idea of what he is capable of, and what he is destined to become. Meanwhile, further east at the frontier with Norsmund, a plot hatches to ensnare the Duke within the clutches of his treacherous vassals. Not only his life is threatened by these schemes, but his sons Theo and Varus as well. With this scheme put into motion, the Duke and Velmund's siblings, Varus and Theo, would taste fate's twisted humor, with the former meeting his demise in a blaze of glory amidst the field of battle, and the latter two vanishing in incidents shrouded by mysteries. With the death of the patriarch of Regalia and his heirs' disappearance, the young lord who was initially third in line for the succession of the ducal seat became its temporary occupant. And thus, the tale of him and his court begins… CHAPTER RELEASE: January 1st at 12:00 UTC

Cameraman Never Dies

In the greed-filled world of corporate empires and magic knights, Min Jae was a king in business, with pockets so deep he could drown in them. That is, until his life deemed his playthrough unfair and gave him a red card. Poison was his family's best friend, as everyone had at least tasted it once, not twice because they never could. Death was never on his calendar, neither was an offer for a divine gig. Enter the Deity of Stories, a celestial being with a fetish for plot twists, who offers Min Jae a deal he can't refuse: become her divine cameraman. No, not the kind with a lens, but one who records the tales of mortals. In return, he gets a second shot at life, in a world where his dearly departed parents are alive and well, ready to dote on him from birth. Reborn as Judge (because “Min Jae 2.0” sounded too dull), he quickly realizes this new life is no gift. This steampunk utopia, filled with airships, clockwork gadgets, and an alarming lack of Wi-Fi, thrives on manipulation. But who needs the internet when you have a divine camera and the sharp mind to control it all? Judge isn’t just here to record stories; he’s here to write them, casting himself as the mastermind behind every twist and turn. Armed with his divine powers, he navigates complex schemes, power-hungry nobles, and ruthless industrialists, all while keeping his ultimate goal hidden: to ascend to godhood and rewrite his own fate. Of course, he generally makes a glorious mess of things, all while trying to keep his dear parents blissfully unaware of his less-than-angelic schemes. But as the stakes rise and the Deity of Stories watches his every move, Judge must tread carefully. Can he manipulate his way to the top, or will he become just another character in someone else’s plot twist? --- Just a quick disclaimer: The book steers clear of any unwanted adult stuff. However, it does feature a potentially disturbing amount of violence—enough to make you wonder about the author's mental health. So proceed with caution—and maybe a shield!

Hollow Facade: Bloodline Ascension

In the year 1018 of the Heavenly Golden Dragon Calendar, the Riverscale Academy hums with life, where young aspirants of the Riverscale Clan seek to master the ancient art of Vein-Weaving—a spiritual connection between the physical body and the life-force known as World Qi. Among these individuals stands Xianlu Koichi, a prodigy with a lineage clouded by hardship and limitations, but fueled by an unyielding resolve to rewrite his destiny. Xianlu’s journey begins within the hallowed halls of Riverscale Academy, where his uncle Yuhen Koichi, a scholar of immense wisdom despite his frail body, imparts ancient tales of the Tea Koi—magical koi infused with the essence of different teas, revered for their power to protect harmony. These stories, filled with battles against the malevolent beasts, inspire Xianlu not just to study, but to transcend his own limitations. For while his veins may falter in conventional cultivation, his mind and understanding of Vein-Weaving offer him a unique path forward—a way to forge a legacy that resonates with the spirit of the legendary Tea Dragons. Through trial and sacrifice, Xianlu discovers his place among the students of Riverscale, earning respect through his keen intellect and compassion. Unlike others born with noble bloodlines, Xianlu relies on the purity of his heart and the unbreakable connection to World Qi. His vision goes beyond power—he seeks to help others who have been told they are unworthy, to carve a space for those deemed ‘less than’ in a society obsessed with lineage and strength. Yet, as Xianlu continues to grow, a deeper destiny stirs within him. It is in the crucible of hardship and failure that he awakens as something more—a master puppeteer of fate itself. Through the mastery of Virtue as his weapon, Xianlu perfects the Riverscale Clan according to his will, reshaping its future with wisdom and compassion. His threads of destiny are not bound by strength alone, but by the subtle manipulation of balance, weaving a new era where the marginalized rise, and harmony is restored through unity.

Vanguard.Frame

Year 2102 of the Old Earth Calendar. Humanity left their home planet, earth, to traverse the stars once the space ship technology evolved to a sufficient extent. The era know as the Era of the space travel was born with the conquest of the solar system.Many years passed after the beginning of said era, and all of humanity, which had unified into a single banner, conquered a myriad of star systems and became a massive power that fiercely defied the many dangers of space, an hegemonic power which no other race, either primitive of technologically advance, could defend against. This remained like this for hundreds of years, until president Alberich rose to power in the year 2504. Alberich Geisburg, elected president of the Unified Humanity, was not satisfied with his position. He found the chains of the democratic system irritating, so he seized all the power for himself through violence, which led to the division of humanity into multiple nations. From this conflict three powers were initially created. The Geisburg Empire, with the self proclaimed Emperor Alberich Von Geisburg and his dynasty leading it. The new Republic of Humanity, which followed the democratic system used by the now destroyed Unified Humanity. And the Commerce Territory of Shenbaun, born from the alliance between large corporations and named after their primary star system. This initiated the Era of galactic conflict, which lasted 400 years. The war between these three nations led to the creation of Frame Constructs, simply called Frames by most. Infantry and common armored vehicles were not sufficient, so humanoid weapons were the next step, and this technology revolutionized war and daily life. Frames became an irreplaceable piece of equipment for all three nations. From Worker Frames, which were used for agriculture, mining and construction, to Infantry Frames which waged war in small numbers and destroyed enemy fleets and defenses with ease. The incorporation of Frames increased the war efforts, and also its brutality. After this, many changes occurred. The Frame technology development race between corporations generated internal conflict between the corporations that formed the Commerce Territory of Shenbaun, which eventually caused the dissolution of said faction, giving birth to hundreds of corporate star systems that control a vast amount of stars, constantly in conflict with each other. The brutal and authoritarian nature of the Geisburg Empire caused multiple revolutions within the border systems, which eventually became kingdoms of their own. Among these kingdoms the most prominent, which remain until today, are the Hiers, Padparadscha and Luminose Kingdoms, along many minor kingdoms. The empire lost a lot of its territory because of the revolutions, which at the time, caused everyone to believe that the New Republic of Humanity would win the war against them, but a sudden event prevented this. About a third of the Republic territory was lost when multiple star systems declared independence, the Republic, which knew they couldn't afford to fight at two fronts of war at the same time, had no option but to recognize their independence. These now independent star systems joined and became the Holy Adamant Dukedom, a wholly religious nation that followed the principles of their newborn religion. The dissolution of one of the three major powers, and the loss of territory and power of the remaining two caused the war to come to a halt, and it was in this period that the new generation of Frames was born. The Vanguard Frames, also known as the gods of war.Giant machines with the power to annihilate standard fleets and battalions of Infantry Frames, upon the creation of Vanguard Frames all the nations poured their efforts into the development of this technology, preparing themselves for the inevitable war that was sure to come. Currently is the year 3072, and were now in the middle of the Era of Gods, named after the Vanguard Frames.

Five thousand years ago, a rift opened in the heavens, connecting our world to another—a realm teeming with gods, dragons, and a myriad of fantastical beings. Overnight, the balance of power shifted, and humanity found itself amidst an age of wonders and perils. In this new world, magic is not merely a legend but an everyday reality. It flows through the air, courses through the earth, and pulses within the very essence of life itself. With the advent of magic, humans evolved into heroes, demon lords, and monsters, carving their place in a society now governed by divine beings, dragons, and demi-humans. Three thousand years into this new era, a cataclysmic battle erupted between two mighty dragons—the Dark Dragon and the White Dragon. Their conflict ravaged continents and threatened to plunge the world into eternal darkness. Fearing mutual annihilation, humans, gods, devils, and demi-humans set aside their differences, forging an unprecedented alliance to slay the warring dragons. With great sacrifice and courage, they succeeded. The souls of the Dark Dragon and the White Dragon, however, did not find peace. Instead, they awaited their chance to reincarnate, their destinies bound to new hosts chosen from among humanity. Now, as the world enters its two-thousandth year of peace, the White Dragon has found its bearer—a young warrior named Ryuji. Ryuji, renowned for his valor and mastery of elemental magic, is hailed as the savior who bears the soul of the White Dragon. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to many, the Void Dragon—the counterpart to the White Dragon—awaits its own host, observing humanity from the shadows. As Kazuki Satoru prepares for his first day at a prestigious high school, unaware of the ancient power stirring within him, he finds himself thrust into a world where legends and reality converge.

Future World

At the dawn of the New Era Calendar, humanity broke free from the confines of Earth and established a new order beyond the Milky Way. In this vast expanse of the stars, filled with both the unknown and hope, humanity witnessed rapid technological advancements and unprecedented expansion of its civilization. The annihilation of the insectoid race was celebrated as a historic victory, with the Earth Celestial Force securing its dominance. Meanwhile, corporate giants seized the opportunity to stretch their influence to far-off galaxies, exploiting resources and colonizing new worlds, propelling humanity into an era of unparalleled interstellar prosperity. Yet, beneath the veneer of progress lay hidden perils. Driven by greed and ambition, humanity neglected to respect the unknown. An exploratory fleet, jointly deployed by the Earth Celestial Force and corporate alliances, inadvertently ventured into a mysterious, energy-laden star system. There, they uncovered an ancient ruin, seemingly belonging to a species far older and more powerful than the insectoid race. However, the activation of this relic awakened a dormant threat buried deep in the cosmic void. The remnants of the insectoid race began to resurface, having evolved far beyond any prior records. Worse still, a new horror emerged—massive creatures known as Star Beasts. Star Beasts, colossal entities comparable in size to small planets, possess the power to obliterate fleets and consume worlds. Their behavior defies all known patterns, yet it seems to be driven by a purpose that transcends biological instinct. Their arrival disrupted the fragile balance of the universe and fractured the tenuous alliances within human civilization. Under the pressure of dwindling resources and escalating conflict, corporate factions began pursuing their own interests, while the Earth Celestial Force struggled to rally the scattered powers of humanity to resist the twin threats of the insectoids and the Star Beasts. As the war escalated, more secrets about the Star Beasts came to light. These creatures were likely not products of natural evolution but creations of an intelligence beyond human comprehension. Additionally, the resurgence of the insectoids revealed a shocking truth: they were never humanity’s ultimate enemy but merely pawns in a far greater cosmic game. Faced with the dual crises of internal division and external invasion, humanity must find a way to strike a balance. Will they persist in their path of expansion and conquest, or will they choose to coexist with the unknown? The answer lies in a final, decisive battle that will determine the survival of their civilization.
