But what begins as a journey into a realm of enchanting beauty quickly reveals itself as a dangerous game of politics, power, and hidden agendas. When the enigmatic Summer Queen announces that some tributes, including Ali, will be sent to stay with the Winter Court, Ali finds herself caught in a web of fae intrigue. Ali must uncover the truth behind her family's ancient agreement with the fae—before she becomes another casualty of their immortal games.

As she falls deeper into his web, she realizes that there are worse things than vampires in the dark realm. In a world rife with conspiracies, terrors, and vampires that will exceed any limit to keep their power.

The world is ruled by the Tianren (Heavenly Beings) and plagued by the Yaogui (Demonic Spirits). Humans, created as a bridge between these two powerful races, are now the lowest caste, their kind dwindling under centuries of oppression. The Tianren, aloof and authoritarian, demand tributes of blood, flesh, labor, and gold from humans, enforcing their rule through celestial courts. Meanwhile, the Yaogui, outcasts of heaven, prey on humans to survive, feeding on their life essence, the Jing. Mo An Jing grew up knowing fear. Her father was hunted by a Yaogui, his Jing drained until his body was an empty husk. She watched in horror as her mother ended his suffering with a knife, only to be sentenced by the Tianren to exile beyond the mortal plane. As punishment, her mother was cast into the void of outer space, leaving An Jing an orphan. Forced into servitude as a Tianren handmaid, An Jing learned to survive through silence and obedience. But her hatred festered, until one day, she escaped the celestial court, vowing never to bow again.

The all-powerful god dies tragically, betrayed by his most trusted servant. But fate had prepared him for a second chance. Reborn as Akuma, he wakes up with no memory of his previous life. Only a thirst to return to the throne of God. There's just one problem. The one who betrayed him has taken the throne of God for himself and now leads the new divine army. Finding themselves in similar situations, Akuma is now surrounded by a group of misfit deities, each with their own turbulent pasts and reasons for falling to this world. Amidst battles of wits and epic confrontations, the group must navigate hidden agendas, personal sacrifices, and the haunting truths of their pasts. Time is of the essence, as they confront not only the might of the false god but also their own inner demons. Can they defeat the false god and reclaim heaven, or are they destined to fail?

Angel thought the world would be hers to explore when she turned twenty. She can finally be free from the gilded cage her overprotective father built for her. But she was mistaken! Her 20th birthday marked the day she lost everything, including the freedom she so desperately craved. It was the day she fell into the hands of her father's enemy, to atone for his sins. Leoric has meticulously planned his revenge for many years. When that day came, he thought he had everything under control. The man who killed his father was behind bars, and the empire he painstakingly built fell into his hands ... including his only daughter. He planned to force his new bride to entertain his friends on their wedding night. That should force her to a status lower than an escort, which should humiliate her and shame her father. That should usher her into hell. His perfect plan of revenge was ruined by a mysterious mishap. They found themselves stranded in a desert in an unfamiliar world after their yacht was sucked into a vortex. Later, they discovered that they were in a parallel universe ruled by dark forces. The only way to return is to offer a tribute to the country's supreme leader—a virgin bride! Where would they get a virgin? Wait, isn't Angel a virgin? As Leoric and his companions traveled across the treacherous landscapes of the enigmatic Astralis, he found himself falling for his wife, who seemed to have transformed after falling into the sea on their wedding night. On a starry night on top of the peak of Mount Anabu, Leoric gazed tenderly at his wife, who looked ethereal, radiated a mystical aura, and whispered... "To hell with the supreme leader and going back. You can only be mine! Let us rule Astralis!"

Organica-Mechanus: Devil in a shell. Ōganika = mekanasu: Kara o kabutta akuma. オーガニカ＝メカナス：殻を被った悪魔。 In the year 2086, the dwindling remnants of humanity, elves, dwarves, and beastkin find themselves locked in a tumultuous conflict against an unknown race codenamed the 'Discarnum,' that has completely ravaged the continents of Arema, Elionios, Dwui and Besettia, leaving only the untouched peninsula of Uretia as the final bastion of hope. Humanity, elves, dwarves, and beastkin find themselves locked in a tumultuous conflict against an unknown force codenamed the 'Discarnum,' that has completely ravaged the continents of Arema, Elionios, Dwui and Besettia, leaving only the untouched peninsula of Uretia as the final bastion of hope behind its thick walls, shields, and advanced defence systems. The Discarnum, devouring everything and anyone they come in contact with, including the land itself, left a desolation in their wake; cities and capitals of melted stone, warped steel, and charred bones now inherit the forbidden lands, where only a thick miasma of death and all that remains are monsters beyond the veil, leaving no room for life to grow. Aware of the impending doom, the greatest minds of all four nations formed the 'Coalition' in 2086, where the four became one and spearheaded the development of a new weapon system. With man's ingenuity, elven knowledge, dwarven craftsmanship, and the beastkin's spirit, they forged suits of living mechanised armour. Born from the labour of near extinction and desperation, the 'Organica-Mechanus' was created, and with it a dark, terrifying secret that had been buried. Governed and wielded only by the strongest and most iron-willed of the four races, weapons of immense power forged ahead, cutting into the darkness, giving the coalition a much-needed foothold in a one-sided war to push back against the Discarnum and gain ground for the first time in ten years.  Three years have passed; there was hope for light to thrive in 2089, but within that hope, shadows of the past would emerge. Beyond the reclaimed zone, a new horror would awaken; in that silence of death and despair, three words would shake the very core of the coalition: "WE ARE COMING..." In the fear of the end, something would be awoken, a sin beyond sins, a monster of monsters, a devil of devils...  "I have become the creator of demons, the destroyer of angels. I pray that one day they can forgive me, for I cannot forgive myself... for I am the one that has cracked the Devil in a Shell and set it free." Yaiku Ui -:Creator of the Organicus Interface.

Amidst the sea of fallen comrades, their lifeblood staining the earth, a solitary figure rises above the carnage. He stands atop a gruesome curtain of death, his longsword an instrument of divine wrath. In its gleam, one could sense a challenge to the very gods themselves. We were fools to face him; my comrades paid the price in their own flesh and blood. A desperate realization claws at my mind – a realization that I must escape this blood-soaked field and bring dire warning to the holy excellencies. I looked at my remaining comrades they instantly realized what I was thinking. They must know of this relentless force, this harbinger of doom. I looked at my comrades and as I turn to flee, fate intervenes, and our eyes lock in a moment of eerie connection. He looked at me and my comrades with his crimson red eyes. He swung his sword towards me. Why is the world upside down? I thought. Then I realized that my head was cut by his crimson sword. Time slows to a crawl as I find myself caught in the deadly dance of his blade. I see the malevolence in his eyes, a reflection of the abyss that has claimed so many. He cut through my comrades without batting an eye. The red moon casts an ominous glow upon the battlefield, and his crimson silhouette, now moving away, becomes a spectacle against the crimson canvas. With an inexplicable calmness, I embrace the darkness. As he strides away, the embodiment of destruction and beauty, I can't help but smile like a fool. Amidst the ruins and the echoes of my demise, I whisper to myself, "Beautiful!" - a final tribute to the twisted elegance that accompanies the brutality of this merciless crimson devil.

Haunted by her past and driven by her dreams of freedom, Amaris must confront not only the dark secrets surrounding Quellin's ascent to the throne but also the terrifying legacy of the Vircadian family, said to be descended from dragons. As she unravels the truth behind the king's nature, Amaris finds herself drawn to Quellin, who reveals a side of himself that contradicts the chilling rumors. Their connection ignites a spark of hope within her, but it also complicates her mission to bridge the chasm between the crown and the commoners. As rebellion simmers beneath the surface, Amaris becomes a linchpin in a game of power that threatens to engulf them all. Can she reconcile her feelings for the enigmatic king with her need to protect her people? Will she be the one to rise above the chains of her past and forge a new destiny for herself and her kingdom, or will the darkness that surrounds Quellin consume them both? Fire & Ecstasy is a tale of passion, sacrifice, and the quest for identity in a world rife with betrayal and longing, where the line between love and power blurs, and the echoes of ancient dragons whisper promises of both destruction and rebirth.
