The century long war had just ended and humanity had managed to get their hands on alien technology, sending them years ahead in terms of technological advancement, fulfilling their hope of finding life outside their planet and their desire to dominate these extra-terrestrial existences. The effects of their technological advancement alone wasn’t capable of giving this result. The appearance of mutations which granted supernatural powers among humans was another boon giving them the chance to act out their darkest desires. Their joy took a dark turn when it was revealed that they were nothing more than livestock to the mysterious race, Xillthars, who cultivated them to that level. Like fattening livestock. Shortly before this dark turn of times was a forbidden creature, Kieran who had been born into the lowest levels of a society created by the greed of humans. To him, life had always been hard, but things got worse after the arrival of the Xillthars as he found himself on a trail of shocking discoveries about himself and the world around him.

Official Art for the Novel at @the_original_realm (I am not sure if this is allowed, if its not please inform me and I will remove the link) Ten years ago, six-year-old Luke Mace witnessed the impossible. On a snowy mountain, during what was supposed to be an ordinary family hike, a monstrous creature emerged from a glowing portal and tore his life apart, killing his parents before vanishing into thin air. No one believed his story. The official explanation was an avalanche, but Luke has never forgotten the truth: the creature, and the strange portal, were real. Now sixteen, Luke joins a school field trip to the same mountain, only to find himself drawn back to the site of his deepest pain. As the snow falls and strange forces awaken, the portal reactivates, pulling Luke into Aethereon, a realm of ancient power and shifting landscapes, brimming with the mysterious energy known as Advent. In this otherworldly dimension, Luke discovers that the creature responsible for his parents' deaths, known only as The Anomaly, roams freely, a force of chaos that answers to no one. Determined to confront it and make it pay for what it took from him, Luke begins his journey, joined by a group of unlikely companions he meets along the way. Together, they navigate the perils of Aethereon, from its labyrinthine forests to its towering, crystalline peaks, facing foes born of Advent's raw power. As Luke learns to wield Advent himself, he realizes that his quest for revenge is far more complicated than he imagined. The Anomaly is more than just a killer-it is a being tied to the fabric of both Aethereon and Earth, and its existence threatens to unravel the balance between worlds. To survive and protect everything he loves, Luke must face not only the monster but the truths buried deep within himself. The Original Realm is a gripping story of loss, vengeance, and self-discovery, as Luke Mace ventures into the unknown to confront the past and forge his own path forward.

Artie had lived her whole life feeling like a joke. Whether it came to her full name, her parents ‘abandoning’ her and her next door neighbours taking her in, or finding out that her lover was part of a cult and was cheating on her. Said lover then stabbed her. It felt like she just couldn’t catch a break. So when she found herself in a puddle of her own blood, staring up at a fake painted sky, she could only find humour in the situation, and prayed that the next life was kinder. Only she woke up. In the same body, with the same stab wound, only in a world full of magic, swords, and a dead King Arthur? Yup. The round table existed, the knights existed, and so did everyone of legend that she’d heard about as a child. Only it was the beginning of their tales. Nothing had happened yet, except the formation of Camelot, the crowning of the King, and then the sudden death of the King of Legend, King Arthur Pendragon. She would have thought this was another cruel joke if everyone wasn’t wandering around in mourning clothes. If this was a practical joke, it wasn’t a very funny one. Artie was tired. She’d already spent almost a decade working as a police officer, and then a detective, so she felt like she had earned her peace. Especially after all the shit she’d been put through, but someone had different plans. And Artie’s life wasn’t quite done yet. In fact, it seemed like in the eyes of the creatures of this world, this was where she was always meant to be. The time she spent getting her ass handed to her in the other dimension? Just a warm up. And now she was expected to just…go along with what everyone else wanted her to do? Including magical beings who were responsible for taking her from one dimension to another. Artie felt like she was in over her head, even if there were several concerned, attractive knights around her. She wasn’t sure if she was going to run away from all the new responsibilities, or embrace them. She wasn’t a rule breaker by nature, but maybe now was the time to change?

The story revolves around "Carsa," a kingdom burdened by poverty and its worship of a sacred black stone called "Aspera." Believed to be a divine blessing, the stone has only brought suffering and sacrifice to the kingdom’s people, including Alfero, the protagonist. Alfero, raised in extreme poverty, loses his father, a guard protecting the stone, and his mother to starvation. His sister, Althea, also falls victim to the kingdom’s misplaced devotion to the stone. Alfero sees the stone not as a symbol of divinity but as a curse that has robbed him of everything. He plans to steal Aspera, enlisting the help of his sister Althea and his friend Ragna. They devise an intricate scheme to create an illusion of divine movement during a religious ceremony, leveraging the kingdom’s blind faith in the stone. The plan succeeds temporarily, but complications arise, leading to Althea’s capture and execution by a divine emissary, Rix. Her sacrifice enables Alfero and Ragna to escape with the stone. At the border, a conflict ensues between Alfero and Ragna over selling the stone. Alfero, consumed by grief and rage, kills Ragna, realizing the stone’s immense but meaningless weight as a symbol of sacrifice and suffering. Alone, he reflects on the devastating cost of his quest, ultimately confronting the futility of the stone’s so-called divine significance.
