Sword in Stone

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?

Carsa(The Black Stone)

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. The story ends with Alfero back in his home, holding the stone that has destroyed his life. In a symbolic act, he acknowledges its worthlessness, yet he remains shackled by the weight of its legacy. The stone, embodying a meaningless blessing, stands as a tragic reminder of a world that venerates emptiness at the cost of human life and dignity.

The Intelligence Age

In the hyper-connected world of 2075, where Artificial General Intelligence hums beneath the surface of society and meta-humans, gifted with extraordinary abilities, walk among us, power is the only currency that truly matters. Ren, a student at Japan's elite meta-human academy, understands this better than most. His ability, Localized Chronokinesis, the subtle manipulation of time in a confined space, is often dismissed as support-class, but beneath the surface lies a mind of cold calculation and ruthless ambition. Unlike the heroes lauded in history books, Ren harbors no grand ideals of justice. He sees the academy's rigorous training, the cutthroat competition of Magi Duels, and the strategic complexities of Cognitive Wargames as mere stepping stones. He is a predator in a world of evolving apex predators, and his unique control over time is a tool to be honed, exploited, and weaponized for his own ascent. His sisters, the powerfully impulsive Akari and the brilliantly analytical Hikari, are not just family; they are assets to be managed in his grand design. The looming shadow of global power blocs, the simmering tensions between nations, and the intricate web of clan politics within Japan are not threats to be overcome, but opportunities to be seized. Ren's path is not that of a savior, but of a manipulator. He will exploit every advantage, forge alliances with calculated precision, and dismantle his rivals with chilling efficiency. He sees the world not as it should be, but as it is – a game of power, and he intends to win, no matter the cost. Witness the rise of a calculating mind in The Intelligence Age, where the quietest power can be the deadliest, and the line between genius and villain is razor thin.
