Juggernaut Lore

Michael Lockwood was a soldier forged by the fire of war, a leader whose sacrifice ensured victory in his final mission. But death was not the end. Waking in a rustic cottage far from the battles of his past, Michael finds himself reborn in the peaceful village of Dawnfield, nestled within the Kingdom of Verdwryn. Gone is the soldier's body honed by years of hardship; in its place is the fragile form of a newborn. Yet his mind remains unchanged, filled with the memories of a life lived on Earth-one of courage, loss, and the unyielding resolve of a man who gave everything for others. As Michael grows in a world brimming with magic, ancient lore, and political intrigue, he struggles to reconcile his soldier's instincts with the simplicity of his new life. The fields of Dawnfield offer tranquility, but whispers of a growing darkness beyond the village hint at greater challenges ahead. Why has he been given this second chance? Is it a gift from the mysterious Everwinds, or a curse with a purpose he has yet to understand? With the wisdom of a soldier and the innocence of a child, Michael embarks on a journey to discover his place in this new world. In the Kingdom of Verdwryn, where strength and strategy are tested as much as the heart, Michael must uncover his purpose before the darkness looming on the horizon consumes everything he holds dear. Kingdom of Verdwryn is a tale of rebirth, resilience, and redemption, where one man's legacy will shape the fate of a kingdom.

(This Story Takes Place In AU So, Don't Expect To Go Things As It Was In the Original Mahabharat.) Hindu x Greek x Norse (Mythologies Included) ******************* My name is Aditya. I am a seventeen-year-old who used to live in Kurukshetra, Haryana, and, of course, an orphan. Life was ordinary until a tragic accident took me away from the modern world—only to be reborn in a time I had only read about in history books: the Mahabharata era. As for how I got to this conclusion? Well, the answer to that question lies with the man-god sitting far away from me with a mischievous smile on his handsome face—Lord Krishna. It seems my memories awakened at a significant moment: the Swayamvara of Draupadi. Standing amidst an assembly of kings and warriors, I watch as Karna is insulted and humiliated for his lower caste. The tension in the air was palpable, and I realized that I was witnessing one of the most pivotal events in the Mahabharata. My heart raced with both excitement and dread. But as I tried to process this, something even stranger happened—a voice echoed in my mind. [Welcome, User! You have activated the Gacha System.] What on earth? Or rather, what in the Mahabharata? Before I could even fully comprehend the situation, I felt a strange pull within me, like an invisible force connecting me to something far greater. The system interface appeared in front of my eyes, listing various abilities, weapons, and companions—all locked behind a gacha mechanism. Apparently, I had been reincarnated not just as a mere observer but with a cheat ability straight out of a video game. The Gacha System allowed me to draw random skills, weapons, or even templates from the grand pool of every mythological lore. But there was a catch: each draw required "Fate Points," and earning those points meant altering the events of this world. As I stood there, watching the unfolding drama with Karna, I realized that I was no longer just a bystander. I had the power to change history, for better or worse. But meddling with destiny in such a grand tale came with unimaginable consequences. What if I anger the gods? What if I change the fate of heroes like Arjuna, Karna, or Bhishma? The weight of it all hit me like a thunderbolt. Still, one thing was certain—I couldn't let things play out the way they did in the original story, not if I had the power to make things right. With the Gacha System at my side, I had the chance to rewrite the Mahabharata itself. But I needed to be cautious. Lord Krishna’s knowing gaze seemed to pierce through me as if he already knew about my unique circumstances. Was he testing me? Guiding me? Or simply waiting to see how my actions would shape the future? Then let's start with this event itself. ********************** Disclaimer: Remember, this is a fanfiction about Mahabharata. Not "Original" Mahabharata. I have no intention to harm anyone's religious belief, I am just writing a what-if story from my perspective. If you don't like it, So I kindly request you not read further this.

Sinopsis: Una historia inspirada en el videojuego Fortnite, de la mano de un fiel jugador y seguidor del lore del videojuego. Realidad cero relata los hechos acontecidos durante el capítulo 4 hasta la temporada actual en el que se esté desarrollando la historia de Fortnite, desde la perspectiva de Venra; un joven huerfano mitad cuervo mitad humano criado por una inteligencia artificial llamada M.I.A, el cuál emprenderá un viaje en donde aprenderá más acerca sobre el pasado de isla así como de sí mismo, pero sobre todo, el verdadero significado de ser un "Raven". Preguntas frecuentes: P: ¿Esta historia puede emplearse como una guía para entender de mejor manera el lore en la línea principal del juego? R: No, Realidad cero si bien utiliza elementos y sucesos vistos en el canon de Fortnite, la historia narrada es totalmente independiente a la misma, puesto que es mi forma de darle una narrativa al lore del juego. Por este motivo nada de esto debería considerarse como un hecho o una guía clara para seguir el lore, es solo mi visión de la historia. P: ¿Porque comenzar desde el Cap4? R: Elegí comenzar a partir de este punto ya que considero que fue en este capítulo donde la consistencia entre hechos de la historia era cada vez menos clara; a diferencia de temporadas anteriores, eso no significa que se omitan dichos acontecimientos, ya que serán de vital importancia para el desarrollo de la historia pero sobretodo de su protagonista. P: En la sinopsis se indica que se abarcarán hechos actuales según lo que suceda en el juego. ¿Cómo se llevará a cabo eso? R: La historia se irá desarrollando de acuerdo a los elementos que el juego otorgue, ya que el objetivo de esta historia es ver como el protagonista se va desenvolviendo según lo que vaya ocurriendo en el mundo del videojuego. P: ¿Cómo se dividirá la historia? R: De momento la idea es publicar pequeñas partes cada semana, de ahí la frecuencia con la que se publiquen dependerá de la recepción de la misma.

-Op Mc? Yes! -Daughter? Yes! -Multiple worlds? Yes! -Vast Lore? Yes! -Fastpace? Yes! ... "You either Die a Villain or Live long enough to see yourself as a Hero." ~Probably Spark --------------------------------------- Spark, the lofty young master of the Dwight family, had always been a mystery. His true abilities were never known until the day he stepped onto the frontlines.

This is a story about a Villain and a Witch. Please note that this work will also be made available on Scribblehub and Royal Road, in addition to its initial publication here. Three years ago, the sky over the magical world of Nethermere cracked, spewing spaceships from a so-called "superior" civilization. Their invasion? A spectacular flop. King Burn of Soulnaught—the most powerful man alive, a tyrant, and a genius—crushed them. Or so the legend goes. But the invaders stayed, hawking shiny tech and worming their way into Nethermere’s future. Colonization loomed. Burn wasn’t having it. If anyone was going to conquer the world, it’d be him. And he succeede—nope. She happened. A maddeningly beautiful witch reset time itself—seven loops—undoing everything Burn worked for. Her curse turned him into a pawn in her twisted game. "Why? You're wondering if I've trapped you in a time loop?" she taunted, all smiles. "It’s not just a spell but a curse! Dear Villain, you are now Witchbound!" Burn, furious and cursing her name, didn’t know what infuriated him more: her power, her schemes, or the fact that her presence tempted him in ways he didn’t dare admit. Usually, the devil did the tempting. But when the angel was this seductiv—COUGH—manipulative, even the devil felt the chill. What to expect from this story: A time-loop-checkpoint conquest story where the end goal is conquering the universe. The MCs? A genuine, unapologetic villain rocking the Lawful Evil vibe and a devastatingly beautiful Chaotic Good witch. Dripping with sarcasm, paired with slow-burning worldbuilding so you'll figure things out as you go. It’s medium-paced, tackling heavy topics like politics, war, and tight plotting—but don’t worry, it's squeezed in romance-comedy breaks to keep you breathing. Speaking of romance, it’s one of the major centerpieces of the story. One female lead, no romantic drama. But beware: this story might have too much romance for you to handle. If you’re afraid of that, well... only cowards skip out on romance! Expect a cocktail of classic high fantasy tropes blended with science fiction. Think modern isekai/gate/space vibes, featuring magic, mecha, strong-to-stronger characters, manipulative masterminds, and deliciously insane moments. Add to that: character growth, intricate connections, a Seinen demographic focus, kingdom building, military campaigns, world invasions, an apocalyptic tone, and sprinkles of legends, myths, world lore, and fairy tales. You’re welcome.

In the labyrinthine world of high finance, power, and hidden agendas, Jiang Ting, the enigmatic and ruthless president of Ying Group, shocks everyone by settling a staggering 30-million-dollar debt for a low-level trading analyst, Astra. What could drive a man of his stature to such an irrational act? The answer lies in Astra's carefully concealed secret — her ability to cast spells and foresee the future. Yet Astra is a woman of conviction, refusing to use her mystical talents to chase wealth. Unmoved by her defiance, Jiang Ting exerts his dominance, weaving a web of pressure, coercion, and calculated manipulation. But as sparks of defiance and dominance clash, an unexpected and forbidden emotion ignites between them, drawing them ever closer to a line neither thought they'd cross. Under the weight of Jiang Ting’s relentless demands and their volatile relationship, Astra finally breaks her vow and uses her spells to fuel Jiang Ting's ambitions, turning his already formidable empire into a financial juggernaut. But the universe does not grant power without cost. The karmic consequences of using magic for profit begin to darken their path, each success shadowed by an invisible debt they cannot repay. As they navigate a world of cutthroat real estate deals, volatile stock trades, and risky foreign exchange maneuvers, they are pursued not only by external rivals but also by the unseen forces that seek to reclaim balance. Amidst these dangers, Astra begins to unravel Jiang Ting’s true motivations — secrets that could shatter everything they have built and redefine the very nature of their bond. Together, they walk a tightrope over a chasm of power, destiny, and fate. The question remains: when the final reckoning comes, will their alliance be their salvation — or their ultimate destruction?

For young Xa’el, the ritual meant to awaken his connection to the Void takes everything from him—his life, his identity, and the future his family dreamed of. But death is not the end. Xa’el is reborn, his soul fused with that of a human from a distant, unfamiliar world. Haunted by fractured memories of Earth and the weight of his elven heritage, he returns to a village that no longer recognizes him. Named a Chronicler, a role that binds him to the preservation of elven lore, Xa’el discovers he is more than a keeper of the past—he is a force for change. The awakening has left Xa’el altered in ways his people do not understand. With the knowledge of science and technology blending with the magic of Ro, Xa’el begins to see his world not as it is, but as it could be. Yet his vision clashes with centuries of tradition, and his pursuit of progress places him at odds with the elders who fear the erosion of the balance that has kept their people alive.
