Asriel Fade

____WSA 2025 ENTRY____ Ezra Nacht woke up in Tears of a Hero—not as the protagonist, but as a forgotten extra doomed to fade into obscurity. Trapped in Alrix Academy, a brutal battleground where only the strong survive, he has no cheats, no special bloodline, and no plot armor to save him. With death lurking around every corner and power-hungry elites watching his every move, Ezra has only one goal: survive. But survival isn’t enough. If he wants to escape his fate, he’ll have to outsmart the strong, break the system, and carve his own path—before the story erases him for good. (There is not going to be any system or other system like attributes in this novel, so please bear that in mind)

As the "War of the Gods" gradually faded into legend, thousands of years of peace passed.

Yuer thought she was just an ordinary fifteen-year-old, until the day her movements didn’t feel like her own. It began with the smallest things—a pen tapping on its own, a fragment of an unfamiliar memory, and finally, a name that wasn’t hers: Takeda Ryūsei. The boundaries between past and present blur as Yuer unravels a truth she can barely comprehend. Two lives, two minds, intertwined so deeply that neither can exist without the other. Memories of who they once were begin to fade, replaced by something entirely new—something neither Takeda nor Yuer could have foreseen. When two become one, what remains of the self? A psychological fantasy of identity, memory, and the delicate balance between what we are and what we were.

In a world where Science meets the Arcane, a time where the surreal bridges upon the factual, an Era in which the physical and metaphysical unify against one common threat. This threat can be seen anywhere, from outside the cottage of a man who struggles with his own isolation, shouting "I cannot be taken yet, for hope has not deserted me!!!" or in the tranquil embrace of nature, where a young man lives among the roots and vines thinking "The Mother of Roots will surely save me", only to find themselves vanished anyhow. Whether meek or the pinnacle of excellence all seems to fade when the "Outers" walk the soils. Explore the world of Alter-Grey in all its facets and uncover mysteries beyond comprehension, knowledge so pure that you might as well be fiction in its suffocating truths, sometimes curiosity is not sated only to kill the cat, but instead uses it to unravel everything. So I ask you this, are you curious enough to brave the Outer? Are you strange to the ways of man or are you mundane? either way I suppose it doesn't really matter. Join a select few Astrals on this journey and see how far the strings of fate take you.

[Shadow Slave Fanfiction] To bear the weight of endings is to carry the hush before the storm’s final breath, to cradle the silence that lingers when the last note of a song fades away. It is to walk among ruins, knowing they are not beginnings, but echoes of what was—and what may never be again.

It is a burden both solemn and vast, to touch the fragile balance between presence and absence. And yet, in every fracture, in every final note, there lies the faintest whisper of something waiting to begin— a truth that can only bloom from the ashes of its ending.
