Coven Seraphine

The Calamity Crest

In a world ruled by thirteen powerful witch covens, magic is the exclusive domain of women, while men exist as slaves, servants, and laborers in a rigid matriarchal hierarchy. Queens bow to witches, and witches answer only to the ancient bloodlines that have controlled reality itself for centuries. For twenty-three years, Kael has known his place—breaking his back in the mines, enduring casual cruelty, and watching fellow slaves die for the crime of wanting to live with dignity. But buried deep beneath the earth lies a secret the covens thought they had erased forever: the tomb of the Witch of Calamity, the fourteenth bloodline destroyed centuries ago for threatening the established order. When a witch's reckless magic triggers a catastrophic cave-in during a mining expedition, Kael plunges through layers of stone to discover the perfectly preserved remains of the most feared witch in history. In that ancient tomb, something impossible happens. The Witch of Calamity's crest burns itself into Kael's palm, marking him as the first male in recorded history to wield magic. But this is no ordinary power—it is chaotic, destructive, and hungry for the blood of those who created the current world order. As the crest's influence grows stronger, Kael must navigate the deadly game of hiding his abilities while learning to control forces that could reshape—or destroy—everything. Caught between his burning desire for revenge and the terrifying realization that his power grows stronger through violence and rage, Kael faces an impossible choice. He could use the Witch of Calamity's legacy to free his people and tear down the system that has oppressed them for generations. Or he could become the very monster the original covens feared—a force of pure destruction that would leave nothing but ashes in its wake. In a world where power has always belonged to the ruthless, what happens when the ultimate power falls into the hands of someone with nothing left to lose? The answer lies in the forbidden magic of the Calamity Crest, and in the choice between justice and vengeance that will determine the fate of two civilizations. The witches thought they had buried their greatest threat forever. They were wrong.

Shattering Humanity

The most eclectic epic ever inspired! "If she feels pain, then I'll make sure you all do..." With the whole globe snowed over, humans are no longer on top of the ladder. A matter creating dragon, and violent crystal/ice aliens, sizes ranging from the average human to towering monsters large enough to squash cities, have forced humanity into various locations of hiding. The chaotic new world gives the opportunity for several members of a manipulative, 8th century witch clan to reveal themselves and save the most meek of humans. Each woman using a form of magic which has secretly coexisted with humanity, to take control of the post-apocalyptic world as Mafia Bosses, Dictators, modern day Conquerors, and other forms of ruling leadership. All in an attempt, not to save humanity, but to prove which is the strongest amongst them. Meanwhile, in the three years after the initial invasion, a few humans have begun to not only fight back against the ice aliens, but some choose to become hosts and acquire unique abilities after slaying one of these bloodthirsty, unconventional extraterrestrials. Shortly before leaving their sanctuary/apocalypse training academy, two friends, Katsu and Saku, are reunited as an academic squad, but the polar opposite personalities are chosen by the last surviving "Creator of Humanity". Both boys 'blessed' as hosts for their universe's contemporary forces and use their "God abilities" to achieve their own (secretly combative) goals. Accompanying them is Shelly, the last surviving descendant to the greatest 'unknown' Scandinavian sword fighter. After being revealed of her destined lineage, and the otherwise "mythical" history of her highly respected grandmother from the Viking/Valkyrie Age, Shelly is determined to retrieve all of her slain grandmother's stolen weapons from the both physically and magically gifted covenant of aforementioned witches. With overpowered witches now trying to gain control over societies, humans gaining powers from the same alien monters who originally threaten them, as well as a secretive psychopath pulling the strings of chaos, in order to save only himself and his precious friend at the end of it all, can love conquer all, or will their love conquer us all? "If you have a beloved purpose you can't live a day without, do you truly have any freedom to live? If you have complete freedom to act however, or say whatever you desire, do you truly have any purpose worth caring about to protect?" ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ [All art is not done by AI but by my good friend Amon-kun] ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ WARNING/DISCLAIMER: This series uses ætiological mythopoeism to spotlight coincidental parallels between various religious scriptures, and scientific theories but is in no way discrediting or belittling the beliefs of others whether that be Creationist or Evolutionist.

Dead Fantasy World

In the world of Chronoa, the dawn of a new age is heralded by desperation. For generations, the races of Humania have stood defiant against the creeping darkness and monstrous hordes that threaten to swallow their lands.

Outnumbered and beset on every side, the rulers and sages of the Estevania Empire pour the last of their hopes into a single, forbidden rite—the legendary Hero’s Covenant.

The ritual is heralded as humankind’s greatest chance for deliverance, their final bid for survival and eternal peace. But something goes wrong. Where light should have returned, a chilling silence settles. Forces meant to save instead begin to unravel the world’s fragile balance. As the days pass, strange things stalk the forests and forgotten towns. The fallen do not rest. The missing return, hollow-eyed and twisted, bearing strange wounds and hungers whispering of a fate worse than death. Now, as hope’s last gamble curdles into horror, all of Humania... No! all of Chronoa faces the consequences of reaching too far—and discovers that not every action can brings salvation. Some open the way for darkness that will not be denied. In the shadow of the failed Hero’s Covenant, the land itself begins to turn against those who wished to save it. Chronoa will never be the same. And the dead... started to raised once again.

A Cultivator's Journey in a Superhuman's Modern World

Full title: [The Knight’s Multiverse] - A Knight’s Journey: The journey of a cultivator in a superhuman’s modern world What happened after you died? This was a question that baffled many, with two mainstream thoughts battling each other: Religion with its Manichean division of Heaven and Hell and Science with its nihilistic approach of returning to the Universe as cosmic dust. Turned out Damian Knight, now Demian Mikhailov, discovered that none of those theories were actually true when his previous life’s memories awakened after being knocked out by a gangster’s heavy punch to the head. Now 18 years old with a deficient body, he will have to find a way to navigate this World’s deep waters, where Fighters with transcendent Physical Attributes were merely at the bottom of the power scale. From Intrinsic Superhumans to Elemental Cultivators, a single misstep and death could snatch him again, with everything he built in this new life disappearing as if a mere illusion. Fortunately, his Reincarnation came with three incredible gifts: an Equalized Adaptive Physiology Perk, a Soul Bond Perk, and a Soul Shield Perk. Armed with those three Perks, the young man will grow his personal strength to protect not only himself but also his Aunt, Adeliya, and his two older cousins, Brynhild and Seraphine from this World’s hidden forces, and with some luck it may even help him deal with those new and growing feelings birthed from the collision of his two lives. ‘Choices have consequences’.

Revival of The Last Lycan

Alternate Title: Empire of Teeth For over five centuries, Vampires have ruled the world from impenetrable city-spires and unyielding fortresses, claiming to protect humanity from the savage werewolf plague they helped create. The truth behind their rise lies buried deep beneath the new world order. But when a mining operation in the tundra of Fennur’s Maw uncovers a being thought extinct, a tremor runs through The Blooded Empire’s foundation. He is a barely a man, or so he appears—musclebound, silver-streaked, and golden-eyed. He remembers nothing… not even his name. As he awakens in a world built to fear him, hunted and mistrusted, this Lycan reborn must navigate the blood-soaked politics of a planet held hostage by immortal tyrants and scheming Coven Nobility. But something stirs in the shadows—ancestral spirits, elemental forces, and long-dead memories claw their way to the surface. The Lycan race lost the war half a century ago. But the Lycan soul never vanished. It was waiting. ********* No System, No Academy, No Harem. If you’re a fan of Underworld, Noblesse and Garou Lore of WTA, then I think you’ll really like this novel since I took inspiration from all three when crafting this story. You can also find this story with a few extra chapters on Royal Road under the same title: Empire of Teeth ************* Extra tags: Martial Arts, Social Commentary, Uprising, Historical, War and Military, Cyber-Punk, Solar-Punk, Soft Sci-Fi ************** WHAT TO EXPECT? A unique and engaging DUAL power system. Not one, but two power systems that have narrative cohesion and purpose. Steady progression. despite the lack of exp from kills and stat points, the mc and his pack will steadily grow in ways that are felt and clearly understood. Tight pacing. not a lot of room for dilly dallying unless there’s a purpose. Commentary. There won’t be hamfisted political opinions or anything like that, but I will use the medium of Lycans to explore how wolves are highly misunderstood and used to push gendered agendas and fear monger etc. I’ll also explore the concepts of class and other things becahse why not. An Mc that’s lowkey similar to dbs broly. especially in the beginning. Tragedy. but not without purpose. Great fight scenes. I think martial arts and how it connects to different cultures and experiences is fascinating and I’ve used that as a way to explore the lore of lycans so many fight scenes will be more than a fight. they’ll also be an experience and dive into the past. nothing too overwhelming or drawn out though. trust.

What the Gods Forbid

Raelith Vale was once Rayan Vale—a brilliant but lonely surgeon from Earth who met his end in a fatal car crash. But death was not the end. He awoke in a world of swords and sorcery, reborn into a prestigious mage family blessed with powerful elemental bloodlines. Gifted and intelligent even in this new life, Raelith seemed destined for greatness. That is, until the day of his awakening ceremony. At the age of fifteen, when all are expected to bond with the elemental forces of the world, Raelith failed. No element. No magic. A soul closed to the world’s aether. Shamed by his clan and marked as a disgrace, he was cast aside. Only his sister—Seraphine, a gifted fire mage—stood by him. But love makes enemies, and loyalty demands sacrifice. When the clan moves to silence Raelith permanently, Seraphine gives her life to save him. Broken, hunted, and exiled, Raelith flees into Death Valley—a cursed land where even gods fear to tread. There, against all reason, he survives. And deep within its forgotten ruins, he meets a mad and ancient mage who reveals the hidden truth: The gods of this world—both holy and vile—conspired to imprison humanity at the peak of power. True ascension lies not in divine favor, but in the forbidden knowledge of the Outer Gods. Given a choice, Raelith accepts a drop of Nyarlathotep blood to awaken his soul… and in doing so, becomes the first vampire in a world that has never known such a being. Now armed with powers outside the laws of nature and a soul bound to secrets man was never meant to hold, Raelith vows to do the impossible: Defy the gods. Unearth the truth. And bring his sister back from the dead… Even if it means becoming the very monster the world was never meant to know.

The Siren's Lighthouse Witch

The Siren's Lighthouse Witch Neria, a spirited and rebellious Tempest Siren, chafes under the rigid traditions of Thalassira, her bioluminescent coral city. Taught that the surface world is corrupt and witches are their ancient enemies, she secretly yearns for a life beyond the ocean's depths. Her people, the Sirens of Tempest, are afflicted by a mysterious curse: a loss of voice and vibrant color whenever they dare to love a witch, a curse mistakenly believed to be caused by such forbidden unions. Perched atop a storm-battered cliff, Elira, a reclusive witch, guards a lighthouse that is secretly a nexus between the spiritual and marine worlds. Exiled by her coven for dabbling in forbidden sea magic, she seeks redemption and answers to the growing blight affecting both her powers and the surrounding waters. Haunted by premonitions and able to perceive the sea's memories, Elira is a solitary soul, hiding a warm heart beneath a sarcastic exterior. Their worlds collide when Neria, drawn by an irresistible pull, ventures to Elira's lighthouse. Despite centuries of animosity and the looming threat of the curse, an undeniable connection sparks between the siren and the witch. As their love deepens, the sea grows more violent, and their powers begin to intertwine—Neria's emotional song and water control amplifying Elira's elemental magic, and Elira's touch allowing Neria to glimpse the sea's forgotten memories. Yet, this very union seems to accelerate the curse, threatening to steal their voices and powers. Unbeknownst to their warring peoples, an ancient, misinterpreted prophecy foretells: "When the ocean's voice loves the lighthouse's light, the world's wound shall heal." Their forbidden love is not the cause of the curse, but the only key to breaking it—a magical barrier designed to keep their worlds apart. As they navigate their dangerous affection, battling both external prejudice and internal fears, Neria and Elira must unravel the true history of the curse. Their journey will challenge not only their societies' deep-seated hatred but also their own identities, proving that true love transcends all boundaries—species, tradition, and the very fabric of magic itself. Their union promises to usher in a new era of understanding, liberating not just themselves, but the sea and the coast from the shackles of ignorance.
