Broken Butterfly

Beneath the surface of Istanbul, in the shadows where the world dares not look, Emir reigns—a ghost, a weapon, a monster carved from betrayal. Abandoned as a child, he learned to survive in the blood-soaked underbelly of power until Kanat, a man with secrets of his own, took him in and forged him into something unstoppable. Emir knows nothing of innocence. Nothing of softness. Nothing of the daughter Kanat kept hidden from him. Beren. Delicate. Sheltered. Too pure for a world like his. She should have never stepped into his underground lair. She should have never seen him like that—hands drenched in blood, eyes as dark as the sins he carries. Now, she is tangled in his world, a world that will eat her alive. Unless he teaches her how to survive it. Unless he makes her just as dangerous as he is. But some flames burn too close, some shadows whisper too sweetly, and some monsters… aren’t meant to be tamed. A dark, intense tale of power, obsession, and love laced with danger. Enter at your own risk.

In a world where power is forged through cultivation, innovation, and unyielding will, Layla al-Zahira, a former queen reborn into the fragile body of Meilin Wuye, heir to the crumbling Silver Lotus Sect. Haunted by memories of her past life—a reign marked by both triumphs and failures—Layla must navigate a delicate balance between rebuilding the sect and confronting the shadows of her own legacy. Her resolve is tested as she transforms the dying institution into a beacon of progress. Yet, Layla’s path is far from solitary. Enter Atlas Ryland, the enigmatic merchant behind Ryl Trading, whose manipulative genius masks a fractured psyche and hidden motives. Bound by contracts and mutual survival, Atlas becomes both ally and wildcard, his actions rippling across the empire as he challenges Emperor Jinhai’s iron grip on trade and power. Emery Voss, a brilliant scholar-engineer obsessed with pushing humanity beyond its limits, partners with Zafira al-Rahim, a vengeful revolutionary driven by the ghosts of oppression. Together, they unravel the mysteries of Layla’s unfinished inventions, repurposing them for war even as Emery grapples with the ethical implications of their work.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a world without hope? A world ruled by the strong, where mercy and love are forgotten, and betrayal is inevitable? A world where gods have abandoned their creation, leaving no one to punish evil or save the innocent? A broken world, devoid of divine intervention. For Alexius Anderian, this is no fantasy. Once a tyrant in the game Broken World of Gods, he reveled in power, controlling everything with an iron fist. But when he transmigrated into this very world, he quickly discovered that reality was far crueler than any game. Betrayed by his own NPC creation, Alexius was tortured and left for dead. Somehow, he survived—but the world he now faces is unlike anything he could have imagined. Stripped of everything he once knew, Alexius must rebuild his strength and uncover the truth behind his arrival in this broken world. The world of Broken World of Gods is no longer just a game. It’s his new reality, and his past as a tyrant means nothing in the face of the relentless enemies who now hunt him. But power is not easily earned. In a world without gods, Alexius must claw his way to the top, seeking revenge against those who betrayed him while uncovering the dark forces that manipulate the fate of this world. With his survival at stake, Alexius must decide: Can he reclaim his former strength and unravel the mystery of his fate, or will he be consumed by the very world he once controlled?

"Broken World" by Lapis L. Lazuli. --Timeframe: 2097. --Stage: Kowareta Sekai Island, Pacific Ocean, Earth. "Broken World" is set on Kowareta Sekai Island, a mysterious place where inhabitants are trapped by a barrier that prevents them from leaving. The island is divided into districts controlled by powerful clans, each with unique abilities derived from a special energy called KAN (Keino Area Notice). The story follows Felix Fletcher, a former juvenile delinquent who seeks to escape the island and explore the world beyond. Felix's journey begins after his release from a correctional center, where he reunites with his family and best friend, Damian Denver. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when Michaelis Miller, leader of the powerful Emo-Jin Empire, attempts to kill him. This event sets off a chain of battles and alliances as Felix forms his own war clan, the Fletcher Clan: Remastered, to counter the threats against him. As the story unfolds, Felix faces numerous challenges, including a massive bounty on his head and a complex web of clan politics. He discovers that his father, Frederick Fletcher, is behind the bounty and seeks to create a ruthless warrior lineage. This revelation leads to a climactic battle where Felix and his allies confront his father. Throughout the narrative, Felix's character evolves significantly, particularly after the tragic loss of Damian, who is later resurrected in a surprising twist. The story also explores themes of power, loyalty, and the true nature of the island's barrier, which begins to crumble at the end, hinting at larger mysteries to be uncovered in future volumes. The narrative is enriched by a diverse cast of characters, each with their own motivations and backstories, and is narrated primarily by President Raegan Ricardo Rodrigo, with occasional shifts to first-person perspectives and interventions from an omniscient AI named Shatter A.I. Overall, "Broken World" is a gripping tale of survival, friendship, and self-discovery set against a backdrop of magical powers and clan warfare. ("Broken World" is the third book in The "What is Humanity?/Lapis L. Lazuli" Lore and the first novel of the four-part "Broken World" Novel Series by Lapis L. Lazuli).

In a galaxy where loyalty is a currency and betrayal comes at a cost, Broken Eclipse follows Larson Odell—a rogue smuggler with a sharp aim, a sharper tongue, and a reputation for getting the job done. Alongside his unconventional crew—a sarcastic tech genius, a war-weathered pilot, and an AI with more personality than she should—Larson takes high-risk jobs that keep him one step ahead of the law, the Syndicate, and his past. But when a seemingly routine data heist on the desert world of Kreith goes sideways, Larson stumbles upon a secret worth more than credits—a secret that could shake the balance of power in the underworld. With the Syndicate hunting him, old enemies resurfacing, and uneasy alliances forming, Larson and his crew must navigate treacherous space, outwit relentless pursuers, and decide just how much they’re willing to risk to stay free. As the Broken Eclipse races through the void, every decision inches them closer to fortune—or oblivion. In a universe where trust is as rare as an uncorrupted credit, Larson is about to learn that sometimes, the job isn't just about survival. Sometimes, it's about rewriting the rules.
