~~~WSA 2025~~~ ... [ Every being harbors malice deep within their soul. [ Although they tried their best to hide the malice, it's undeniable that it exists. The more the life forms suppressed their malice, the more scarier the malice was when it was released... [ As time passed by, although most life forms managed to suppress their malice, the malice within them, instead of decreasing, actually began to accumulate. Breaking through the critical point as they soon transformed into something; hence, an entity worse than the devil itself was born.] [ ... ] [ As a new Chaos Awakener, your sole duty was to eliminate "Malice". Preventing malice from accumulating energy and reaching the critical point, reasoning for a door to open between the two worlds.] [ ... ] [ Note: Upon accepting the task, you would no longer be able to escape your destiny. Please choose wisely! ]

Lothair is a serial killer who detest imperfection on human’s facial features, which resulted in him having a compulsory behavior of wanting to strip people’s faces. After he dies, he finds himself as Narcissus, a beautiful and adorable female NPC inside a state-of-the-art VRMMO world of the latest craze called Fallen Carcosa Online. But despite being a fantasy-filled game, the world feels strangely realistic. Too realistic, even. Game-like systems and magic exist but so do plagues, politics, economy, and the horror hidden in plain sight. When pried open, an actual human-like anatomy can be seen beyond the skin of the NPC’s face—with little to no censor. Everything feels too immersive. Except Narcissus, Lothair’s new identity. When Narcissus tried to scrape off the face of her new adorable body, she found an abyssal void with little to no end. This story marks the birth for the King in Yellow. - Warning, this story contain: Male-to-Female Genderbend, GL/Yuri, Occasional Futa MC, Yanderes, Harem, Self-Cest. - Follow the creative and attentive Narcissus, a nuanced former serial-killer who will gradually becomes stronger, experienced, maddening, horrifying, but also mature, wise, conflicted, and complex—in this near-endless journey. Where souls unsung and tears unshed. In the land of Lost Carcosa.

“They are beauty beyond words and terror beyond reason. In their light, souls are cleansed; in their shadow, worlds are undone. They bless with a touch and destroy with a glance. To worship them is to invite salvation and doom alike, for they are justice without mercy, power without limit, and existence without end. Mortal hands may build temples in their name, but no prayer can soften their gaze. Kneel, not in hope—but in fear." — Aetherion 6:8 Have you ever wondered if Gods exist or if they are just a figment of humanity's imagination for hope? If they exist and aren't just a figment of our imagination, are they benevolent and merciful, or are they indifferent to our sufferings? Arohan, an atheist despised the concept of religion and Gods because of his parent's death. His parents left him wealth beyond measure, so he lived his life the way he desired and did whatever he wanted without caring about the consequences. Everything changed when he faced two choices: save himself or save the world!

In a world fractured by forgotten wars and ancient forces, Eleanor is an anomaly. While the land groans under the weight of its inevitable end, she remains untouched, an eternal presence in a realm where death claims all. The laws of nature bend around her, as she exists beyond the reach of mortality. Sealed away, hunted, or buried in time, she cannot be destroyed. Her immortality is both a blessing and a curse. Born in a forgotten village, Eleanor’s life was once simple, until the mark of something ancient awakened within her. Now, as the world crumbles beneath the weight of forgotten gods and hidden truths, she must lead a fractured humanity toward a future she can no longer fully grasp. But with each passing year, as she stands witness to the collapse of everything she knew, the cost of her eternal existence grows clearer. In a world where the end is inevitable, Eleanor’s path will take her to the very heart of destruction. Will she succumb to the darkness that calls to her, or will she become something far more terrifying than anyone could imagine?

Also as is plainly displayed the title of this story is called: "Life's Unending Challenges" This is a historically based romance novel, but all of the main characters are fictional and are in no wise shape or form related to any actual true non-fictional characters. There may be a few places where I (the author) will put in a actual true live person, like for instance: George Washington, or so on. I really hope that you enjoy this book and let your family and friends who you will enjoy it know about it. If this book is in some way a trigger for you of nasty or scary things. PLEASE DO NOT READ. As I have no intention of causing anyone harm distress in real life.
