[From the stories of Azuden0, Volume 3. Revelation, the Downfall. Chapter 2, Darkness's Uprising.] Achan Allare has spent his life running from his father’s legacy. A man once revered as the greatest Babaylan, a Spiritual Healer, whose supposed miracles once inspired awe. But Achan knows the truth: his father was no miracle worker. The power that once made him legendary had long since withered, tainted by the abuse of such power. Yet, unwilling to let go of his status, his father continued the illusion by using him. Forced into the role of a vessel, Achan became the façade of his father’s failing power, paraded before desperate souls who clung to false hope. And when the deception finally caught up with them, it cost his father his life. Now, Achan lives a quiet, ordinary existence- free from superstition, free from manipulation. Until they come. An influential family, desperate enough to believe. Taken against his will, Achan is thrust into a world he vowed to leave behind, commanded to take his father’s place and restore the health of their company’s sole heir. He refuses. He knows the cost of deception, knows the ruin that comes from clinging to fading miracles. But when he uncovers the truth behind their illness- a Curse that shouldn’t exist, that spreads suffering beyond its victims. He finds himself unable to turn away. With his freedom slipping through his fingers, Achan faces an impossible choice: fight against the truth he never wanted to reveal or embrace the very deception that destroyed his father- before it destroys him too. Bound to the heir through forces beyond his control, he must unravel dark secrets, confront the specter of his father’s past, and decide whether to wield a power he never asked for. But with danger lurking in the shadows, the question remains. Will he escape, or has he already been claimed by the legacy he tried to outrun?

They say war takes a piece of you. For him, it took everything — and gave something else in return. In a war-torn future where humanity clings to survival across shattered worlds, a single fireteam wages a desperate retreat from the alien force known as the Upyr — a biomechanical species that doesn’t kill its enemies… it repurposes them. When a mission goes sideways, the unnamed protagonist is left behind, captured, and dragged into the nightmare of an Upyr research facility. There, beneath black suns and sterile lights, he becomes the subject of grotesque experiments: his body flayed, remade, and fused with invasive alien technology — not as a soldier, but as a prototype. Implanted with the Carrion Fork — a living nanite weapon — and sheathed in Wraithskin stealth armor, he emerges as something no longer human. Memories blur, identity fragments, and purpose becomes a ghost. But he remembers one thing: his name was once spoken with love. And the ones who left him behind? They're still out there. Still fighting. Now, hunted by the Upyr and feared by the species he once protected, he must decide if there’s enough left of him to save anything — or if the monster they built is all that remains.

Pieces of a puzzle the world wants to forget. Compelled by the mystery and driven by a need she can’t explain, the girl sets out for the legendary Mount Ebott—the last known gateway to the Underground. One stormy night, she watches the mountain from afar, unable to shake the feeling that something is calling her. The next morning, she quietly leaves her home and begins her journey, alone. At the entrance to the Underground, she meets a robed figure with no face—a man who seems to know more than he says. He warns her not to continue, to turn back before the story repeats itself. But when she refuses to leave, he offers her the one thing she’s never had: the truth.

After dying from overwork, a lonely man is given a second chance-in another man's body, with a loving family he never had. As he learns to live in this new world, he discovers warmth, connection, and the meaning of being loved. A heartfelt tale of redemption and quiet healing.
