"The Author of the Apocalypse" is a dark, philosophical saga of rebirth, futility, and the search for meaning in worlds where chaos and magic intertwine with human frailty. The protagonist, nameless in his past life, was a 25-year-old recluse whose novellas drowned in the apathy of the digital void until his existence was abruptly ended by a terrorist attack. Death, however, is not the end but a beginning: he is reborn as a grotesque infant in a world of swords and sorcery, within the powerful Dakota family, a branch of the De-Dakota-Lastmund clan. His new body—crooked, weak, repulsive—mirrors his former uselessness, yet within it smolder sparks of mana, promising a strength he has never known.

This may sound biased, but... What's the most essential thing for being a writer? Idea? Or Imagination? It's lucid! The answer to it is imagination. While ideas can come and go, however, long-term success in writing comes from the depth and wildness of one’s imagination led by perfect implementation of it, known as writing. Through imagination, one can experience infinite lives, outcomes, victories, and defeats—all intertwined in stories that go beyond mere ideas. In that case, what would an author do if one has the lesser side in terms of imagination, unlike one's renowned writer relative? Read on to discover the winner in the endgame of Memoir! Check it out :-) Nope, I'm serious! #Vote it with power stones or else I'll steal your plushie.

BY THE EDGE OF THE SPEAR is a saga of Africa, a tale of conflict and love, unbreakable bonds, magic and the wonder of the African experience. It follows the mighty deeds of several heroes and heroines. The story is set 300 hundred years ago in East Africa where three communities are in conflict. The Maarati are pastoralists while the Anyaga are farmers. The two have had an uneasy co-existence with regular feuding for many years. Then enter the third force, the Nkolwane, who are sweeping everything in their path as they expand from the south, using both wizards (called Innaxzi) and warriors. The story follows the adventures of our hero Kiama, a youth who, though quite weak in warrior skills, is nevertheless quite strong in the arcane arts, something that he doesn’t know about until he is “awakened” by an old woman. The Maarati and Anyaga communities ascertain through their seers that there is a community from the south that is destroying all other communities in their path. They decide to unite their forces to combat this common threat. Kiama is one of the few who will have an intimate but painful knowledge of the southern enemy early on. The two communities marshal their might both arcane and force of arms to counter their enemy. We have Muniu and Runo of the Anyaga, mighty warriors with something to prove, and then there’s Lerionka, regiment commander of the Maarati and his beloved and beautiful Ntalei, their love beset by so many obstacles. There is Lengoibon, also regiment commander and a vicious rival of lerionka, there is Mukungu, a crafty, evil and cunning elder of Anyaga. Need I mention Kui, beautiful, proud, and oh so gifted lady of the Anyaga, Uloziba the stunningly beautiful Innaxzzi spy and scout of the Nkolwane, Wangari seer of Anyaga, and Samute the Oloibon of Maarati, each unique and powerful.

However, only a single question remained in their incomprehensibly vast minds; why had the gate made its move after being inactive for half of the universe's existence?
