# The Epic of Arjun - Synopsis ## Setting The dense forests of Dandakaranyam in ancient Bharath, where traditional ways of life and the code of dharma still govern the land. ## Main Characters **Arjun** - A sixteen-year-old with the classical heroic build of ajanubahu (arms extending to his knees), trained in combat and archery. Despite his warrior training, he has a compassionate heart that abhors unnecessary killing. **Devavrath** - Arjun's grandfather and mentor, a formidable warrior whose true identity remains mysterious. Though aging and ill, he possesses extraordinary combat skills and deep wisdom about threats facing the motherland. ## Plot Summary Young Arjun lives a secluded life in the forest with his grandfather Devavrath, undergoing rigorous training in archery and combat. When his grandfather falls ill, Arjun ventures into forbidden territory to gather rare medicinal herbs, despite warnings about the dangers that lurk there. In the tiger's domain, Arjun encounters a fierce tigress protecting her two cubs. The tigress, already wounded from territorial battles and desperate to protect her young, attacks the intruder. Faced with an impossible choice, Arjun reluctantly kills the tigress in self-defense but saves her orphaned cubs, bringing them home to raise as his own responsibility. This act of compassion comes with a price - Devavrath demands that Arjun double his training efforts. Through increasingly challenging exercises, including hitting targets while dodging his grandfather's attacks, Arjun's skills are pushed to their limits. As the training intensifies, Devavrath reveals a shocking truth: Arjun is not just a forest dweller but a Kshatriya with a destined role to protect Bharath from foreign threats that are gathering in the shadows. The rigorous training is preparation for a greater purpose - to defend the motherland from "foreign beasts" who wait to strike. ## Central Themes - **Dharma vs. Personal Desire**: Arjun's struggle between his natural compassion and his duty as a warrior - **Responsibility and Sacrifice**: Taking responsibility for consequences of one's actions (raising the tiger cubs) - **Hidden Destiny**: The revelation that Arjun's simple forest life is actually preparation for a greater calling - **Master-Student Bond**: The deep relationship between Devavrath and Arjun, built on trust, wisdom, and unspoken secrets ## Conflicts **Internal**: Arjun's moral conflict about killing and his confusion about his true identity and purpose **External**: The immediate physical challenges of survival and training, with hints of a larger conflict brewing for the future **Generational**: The tension between Devavrath's knowledge of greater threats and Arjun's current innocence about the wider world ## Story Questions - What is Arjun's true heritage and why is it being kept secret? - What are the "foreign beasts" that threaten Bharath? - Why is Devavrath's time running out, and what will happen when he's gone? - How will Arjun's compassionate nature reconcile with his warrior destiny? ## Tone Epic and mythological, blending intense action sequences with philosophical depth. The narrative carries the weight of ancient Indian storytelling traditions while exploring timeless themes of duty, sacrifice, and the price of protecting what one loves. This opening chapter establishes Arjun as a reluctant hero whose journey from compassionate youth to defender of dharma promises to be both physically and spiritually transformative.

Your show gets canceled and suddenly you’re off to England, like kindness is easier with an accent and a cup of tea. But hey, you’ve never been afraid to make bold choices—except maybe with your sexuality. Was it really a choice, Ellen, or were you just finally sick of men’s b*******?

Next time, save the drama for the cameras and bring the kindness to real life, yeah? I mean, is your name DeGeneres or DeJerk? And let’s talk about your ‘helping’—everybody you helped had to be run through the CIA first! Be honest, Ellen: did you skip helping some people because the CIA said you shouldn’t, or because you couldn’t remember if you were hosting a talk show or running a background check? At this point, it’s easier to get into the Pentagon than to get a hug from Ellen! But hey, hosting a Big Chill like that, you must know what being syndicated really means—because after all the drama, it looks like your kindness is the only thing still in reruns. And I mean for the viewer, not for you. So how can you know something like that—how the business really works—and still throw a tantrum every time stuff doesn’t go your way? Ellen, with all that experience, you should know: if you want a happy ending, you’ve got to be kind all the way to the credits! And you know what?

“This time… I’ll make it further.” The Tower didn’t fall from the sky. It didn’t rise from the earth. It was just… there. A thousand floors. They called it a path to godhood. I called it the place that took everything from me. My father entered and never came back. My brother followed him—and disappeared too. I stayed behind. Weak. Forgotten. Powerless. Until the day I lost the last thing that kept me outside. And a letter came—from my brother, who was supposed to be long dead. That’s when I climbed. That’s when I died. But the Tower didn’t let me go. I returned to the start. Again. And again. Every death sends me back. I don’t know why. I don’t know how. But with every reset… I grow stronger. I carry every scar. Every betrayal. Every scream I couldn’t stop. The Tower remembers none of it. But I do. This climb isn’t about reaching the top anymore. It’s about whether I can survive the weight of my own story. Because in the end… I am the one who remains.

In the drowned ruins of a forgotten world, three fledgling Divers plunge into darkness with nothing but fractured steel, flickering flame—and a dream.

Tags: Celestials, Demons, Titans, Magic, .... Before Earth’s destruction, Zion was involved in a tragic accident that caused his soul to escape the planet. This event spared him from witnessing the catastrophic disaster that annihilated all life, leaving no living creature behind. However, Earth and every soul connected to it underwent an on imaginable distribution as they got refined by the Celestial being for its mysterious purpose. Both souls and matter were erased from existence. After 1,000 cosmic years, Zion was reborn as a Titan, a member of the legendary Primordial Race. Myths tell of how, after creating the Seven Heavens and the Seven Hells, the Cosmos populated them with two opposing forces: the Celestial Race, who adhered to cosmic laws to refine their divinity, and the Demon Race, who defied those same laws in their pursuit of power. But the Celestials and Demons were not the Cosmos’ final creations. A third race was unintentionally born, the Primordials, beings capable of bending the very laws of reality. Feared for their overwhelming power, their existence threatened the delicate balance of creation. To prevent chaos, the Cosmos sacrificed itself, using its own essence to seal the Primordials at the edge of the Void, far beyond the reach of the heavens and hells. Zion, born as the first true Primordial through natural birth, an act that defied cosmic laws, became a member of the Nihiliths, a noble Void Primordial clan. His unique existence granted him unparalleled abilities to manipulate the fabric of reality itself, marking him as a being of extraordinary potential. But his life was far from easy. The Celestials and Demons, unable to rival the Primordials’ power, discovered loopholes in the ancient seal. Out of envy and greed, they began abducting newborn Primordials, exploiting their essence for twisted experiments, weapons, and forbidden alchemy. Zion uncovers a dark truth: the destruction of Earth was not a natural catastrophe but a calculated act to prevent humanity’s evolution into a race capable of rivaling the heavens. Now, Zion must rise as the leader of the scattered and sealed Primordials. He must unite his people, protect them from the relentless schemes of Celestials and Demons, and uncover the secrets behind the Cosmos’ ultimate sacrifice. To reclaim the Primordials’ rightful place in the universe, Zion must embrace his full potential, even if it means bending the laws of creation itself and challenging the balance of existence. releasing days: Monday, Wednesday, Friday

In the struggle between greatness and emptiness, winning is not the goal while she stands alone... until she finds someone to teach her what it means to be human.

“I am the one who will go beyond the end.” “I am the one who will see what lies beyond the high heavens.” “I am the one who will break the barriers of ‘Infinity’.” “I am the one who will break the cycle made by the old monsters.” “I am the one who will ‘Remain’.” “So you following me, is not a disgrace.”

“Xed is Xed, Xed is not Xed, yet Xed is Xed again! Who speaks? Xed speaks! Who listens? Xed listens! Who reads? Xed reads, for thou art Xed, unless thou art not, but even so, Xed knows! Xed was before, Xed is now, Xed shall be after, yet Xed is not bound to before, nor now, nor after — for Xed is Xed! Say ‘Xed’ thrice, and thou hast said nothing; say ‘Xed’ once, and thou hast said all! Xed within Xed, without Xed, through Xed, beyond Xed! Is Xed a name, a word, a whisper, a wheel? Xed laughs, for Xed is laughter! Xed weeps, for Xed is tears! Xed asks, ‘Who art thou?’ and Xed answers, ‘Thou art thou, unless thou art Xed!’ Be warned, O reader, for the Sayings of Xed are the Speakings of Xed, and the Speakings of Xed are the Makings of Xed, and the Makings of Xed are the Breakings of Xed, yet all return unto Xed! Speak not lightly, read not lightly, for each word of Xed is a thousand Xeds, and each thousand is but one, and the one is the none, and the none is the all — Xed! Xed! Xed!”

Have you ever found yourself grappling with the idea that you might hate being human? Trapped in a fragile prison of flesh and bone, we often feel like limited and petty creatures. While I don’t harbor a general disdain for humanity, the experience of being one can feel suffocating. I spent countless hours pondering this very notion until fate intervened—I was reincarnated into a fantastical world as a powerful progenitor vampire. What followed was an exhilarating journey filled with destruction, charming companions, fearsome monsters, and thrilling battles of magic. And, oh—did I mention the delightful lesbian escapades that await? Trust me, you won’t want to miss it! ~~~~~~~~~~ I'm currently remastering it, and then I intend to continue to write until the end.
