"Gordon! Why are you late? The awakening ceremony is right now!" Jessica said urgently when she saw Gordon come through the doors of the awakening center. Shrugging Gordon didn't say anything. The last thing in the world that he wanted to do was tell this beautiful girl that he had been tripped and beaten on the way to school today. It was times like this that he wished that he bruised more easily. Then maybe he could get some attention. But this thought was fleeting in his mind. Gordon actually preferred to deal with his problems in his own way. And awakening to become a beast tamer and maybe even have his own talent would be the first step. Once he had a powerful beast the bullies wouldn't dare pick on him. "Come on, let's get in line." Jessica whispered to Gordon when she realized that he wasn't going to tell her what had happened. Together they went to the back of the arena type auditorium to wait for their turn to awaken. They had been friends since childhood and had been there for each other through thick and thin. Jessica had been the only friend that stuck with him despite all of his quirks. Slowly the line inched forward. Occasionally some people in their class would cheer if in addition to becoming a beast master a student also awakened a talent.

Ayunda Saraswati was once Aleya, an independent woman in the modern world, a corporate worker with no family or close friends. She lived a life devoid of warmth, never knowing love or attachment. Until one fateful accident claimed her life, leaving her lost in the void between worlds. Reborn in the majestic Majapahit Kingdom, Ayunda wakes up in a new life, as the 10-year-old daughter of a minor minister in the royal court. The world around her seems eerily familiar, echoing the ancient dramas she had once watched. But this is no longer the life she once knew. Here, in a world of kings, warriors, and politics, Ayunda faces an unexpected challenge: she now has a family—a dignified father, a loving mother, and a handsome brother. For the first time, she finds the warmth and care she never had in her previous life. As Ayunda recovers from a feverish illness in the quiet seclusion of her family’s courtyard, she begins to adjust to her new life, free from the burdens of the court. But she cannot forget her past life and the lessons learned from her lonely existence. She does not seek the kingdom’s destiny or its politics; all she hopes for now is to live peacefully with the family that loves her, and perhaps, experience the affection and connection she never had before. However, the kingdom’s fate is not so easily ignored. And Ayunda’s newfound family, including the handsome Crown Prince Rajendra Wijaya, may be the key to a future far different from what she ever imagined. Disclaimer: This is a work of pure fiction.

I died. That's obvious. But I was reborn. How? Don't ask me. Maybe it was some god. A divine being? Ah- It doesn't matter. My life burned away and now- well I'm stuck here in this black void. This dungeon. Maybe I had lived a pious last life. Laughable as that was. But I was given a second chance. Told to grow my dungeon, to create hulking monstrosities that would destroy the world. In short, I am now a villain. I am the consciousness of the dungeon, the little orb at the end my body. And still I live. A projection of a body is created - a trap - and I am that. I am the one to guide foolish adventurers to their death. My looks are curated. Soft features that entrap the mind. I am the dungeon. I am the projection, I am human, and I am the dungeon. And I will conquer all. Every being will bow before my might. "Before you're cuteness~" Ah- heh- that too... help... I didn't ask to look this cute!

Tree growth

The story of an adventurer passing through the dungeon.

This is a story about a boy who fell in love with a tree… A story about powerful people changing the rulebook to stack the odds and line their pockets… I aim to create a story that will transport us so we get a glimpse of what that boy felt. The first 4 Chapters might be classified as a prologue depending on how you look at it. The boy quickly grows and the story really starts when the System arrives on Earth. I’m trying to achieve a relatively slow power progression and guide what we learn at a pace following the people in the story. There will be fighting but It’s more focused on base building. The MC is not all-powerful and all-knowing but he has some significant advantages. I’m trying to create a universe that makes sense in its own context. Much of what you will find, are my own world views, in a magnified way, as to make it for interesting fiction. The story took a life of its own when I started to write and I’m really happy with it. Not all of the tags I have marked will immediately be applied. There is stuff planned for far in the future such as the Sci-fi tag. There might be some cursing and gore but it is not very often.
