Dr. Elaine Kastor, a brilliant yet reclusive theoretical physicist, never imagined her life’s work would end her life. In a catastrophic experiment that defied explanation, Elaine’s death marked the beginning of a far stranger story. Awakening in a fragmented multiverse held together by the mysterious Veilshard Nexus—an ancient, sentient system governing countless realms—Elaine finds herself bound to a new existence, both gifted and cursed. Inhabiting a foreign body with inexplicable abilities, Elaine discovers she is now reliant on the Nexus to survive. This vast, enigmatic network assigns her cryptic “Divergence Mandates”—missions that tether her to the Nexus’s fractured worlds, each brimming with political intrigue, arcane constructs, and alien logic. Her first destination, Liradelle, is a medieval realm where magic and ambition clash, yet hidden beneath its complexity lie whispers of a far-reaching conspiracy connected to the Nexus itself. But Elaine isn’t the only one entangled in the Nexus’s chaotic threads. Rivan, a reserved wanderer with an unexplainable bond to the fractures, and Ardyn, a fierce warrior caught between loyalty and survival, are also players in this cosmic game. Together, their paths converge, revealing threads of betrayal woven by the Nexus’s creators—the Custodians—who shattered their own creation in a misguided bid for control. As Elaine grapples with the rules of her rebirth, she discovers the fractures are alive, their chaotic energy holding memories, purpose, and hidden dangers. To unravel the truth of her resurrection, she must master not only the Nexus’s arcane class systems and magical sciences but also the unstable mechanics of the Multiform Divergence, an ultimate skill that bridges fractured realities and alters the laws of existence itself. However, the Nexus is no benevolent guide. Its secrets are veiled in riddles, and its stability depends on sacrifices that demand more than strength or intellect. Elaine’s memories grow increasingly unreliable, leaving her to question whether she is a pawn in the Nexus’s game—or a catalyst for its unraveling. In this sprawling journey of survival, power, and identity, every step through the fractures leads Elaine, Rivan, and Ardyn closer to a singular truth: the Nexus doesn’t simply connect worlds—it redefines the meaning of existence. But at what cost? Combining intricate worldbuilding, relentless intrigue, and high-concept fantasy, Veilshard Nexus immerses readers in a multiverse alive with questions of purpose, identity, and the fragile balance between chaos and control.

Burdened by debts and on the edge of losing his workshop, Rivyn’s life turns around when he finds out that he got a mysterious System, which is different from the ones that every adventurer and blacksmith receive.

Will he grow up to be the world’s greatest blacksmith or will he be ravished by the powers that want to take him over?

"World conquest was never part of the plan." Yu Chen was just an ordinary programmer, slaving away at his desk, fixing bugs for a popular kingdom-building game. His life was a cycle of endless work, sleepless nights, and little appreciation. One fateful night, while struggling to fix a game-breaking bug that granted players an absurd amount of upgrade points, his exhausted heart gave out. But death wasn't the end for Yu Chen.

'Sinner of the Spades' takes place in an alternate early 20th century, at the turn of industrial advancement. Set in a world where one Empire rules over the majority of the western continent, the world is ravaged by the aftereffects of a great war. It is a world of tragedy, of longing for wealth, of parading high above the clouds, of mechanical automatons, and of grand tales of sorcery not many have had the chance to see themselves. Lumière Croft is a show magician in the middle borough of the city-state of Leiden- rather, an illusionist. A career liar. Responsible for making money to help out at the monastery he lives in, he can only curse the dreadful circumstances around him, and wish desperately that something would change. Although, that change is not always a good thing. Only when the shadows around him begin to creep, and when the sky grows burgeoning eyes, and when blood is spilled, does he find hope of fulfilling his wishes. To have sunlight, the world must be balanced with cruelty. To have power, one must lose their soul, humanity, morality, or sanity. One must ultimately balance the scales of their debt, or fall eternally to suffering, and have the scales corrected by force. This is the story of balance, of hope, and of the tragedy of a liar. —- “We’re all liars who pretend that the world is okay, and as liars we adopt philosophies and ideologies to cope with its cruelty. Because the world has hope, as long as we speak these lies loud enough, they’ll surely become true.” - Lumière Croft. --- Cover illustration done by @i_evuuu/Everest

The boy furrowed his brows in annoyance, his eyes still closed. He searched his surroundings and discovered a glass-like slab. With closed eyes, he slid his finger across it and placed it near his ear. "Hello..." he mumbled in his drowsy voice, which carried a hint of depth. "Hey, Pissed-up Prat, where are you?" a voice laced with disdain emanated from the slab. The boy, referred to as the "Pissed-up Prat" by the irritating female voice, recognized it as a voice he heard frequently but couldn't recall its owner. With his eyes still closed, he inquired, "Who is this?" "What do you mean, 'who is this'? Wake up, come home, or eat shit for breakfast if you prefer!" the voice behind the transparent slab retorted before falling silent. The boy, still not fully awakened, gazed at the half-opened glass slab with a mixture of confusion and surprise. As his eyes darted around the room, he became increasingly shocked. As he recollected the fragmented memories from the night before he lost consciousness, his gaze fell upon the entrance of the shop. Once old and damp, it now bore a different appearance. While not transformed into a luxurious space, it had undergone improvements compared to its previously dilapidated state. The shop took on a rectangular shape, with one longer side adorned with wooden shelves intricately patterned. Rows of empty glass jars lined these shelves. On the opposite side, there was another wooden shelf, also displaying empty jars. Towards the beginning of the counter, where the boy had been sleeping, there stood a peculiar machine. Confusion etched across his face, he murmured to himself, "Whose shop is this?" In response to his question, a mechanical voice resonated in his mind. [The Omnistore belongs to you, host.]
