Last Ride Of The Rohirrim

David returns to his hometown after receiving a chilling message from a girl he barely knows: “He said he would die. And he did.” The funeral is quiet, but his mind is loud — filled with guilt, silence, and a memory he’s been running from. Mavia, his best friend since childhood, is gone. The one person who understood his silence... left behind a silence of his own. A final message. A promise. And a mystery David can't ignore. Haunted by words he never said, David steps into a story that didn’t end with death — it began with a message left too late.

A forgotten kingdom. A sacred vow. A journey home across centuries. Centuries ago, the fate of a young Vietnamese noblewoman became entwined with the rise and fall of the Champa kingdom. Her name was Thanh Mai—a girl of silken grace and iron spirit, whose heart beat with forbidden love and a fierce loyalty to truth. Her story was nearly lost… until one man dared to follow its echo. In modern-day California, Kien Quoc—a quiet Vietnamese-American engineer—receives his father’s dying wish: return to Vietnam and uncover the roots of their family’s past. His journey leads him into the heart of central Vietnam, where sacred towers sleep beneath moss and myth, and where the memory of Champa lingers in song, stone, and silence. Guided by dreams and joined by Sari, a Balinese journalist equally devoted to Southeast Asia’s lost civilizations, Kien stumbles upon a revelation that challenges history, identity, and the very idea of nationhood. Along the way, they unearth a secret chamber beneath the holy valley of My Son—and within it, a truth that changes everything. Told in sweeping, poetic prose, Last Song of the Nation weaves together two timelines: the fall of Champa through the eyes of a young woman trapped between war and destiny, and a contemporary quest for heritage, love, and healing. At its core lies a question that haunts generations: What do we owe the past, and what can it still teach us today? This is a novel of memory and migration, of culture and compassion, of spirits that never die and songs that still carry across the wind.

In the deepest cavern below the world, the Blackbaast holds many Noble Houses. For Artemis of the Lunastre Family, Nobility is more of a curse than a blessing. If he weren't from such a prominent House, he could easily obscure his defect. He would have no need to keep the Spirit he contracted with a secret, and he certainly wouldn't have to fight for his own survival, spirited to a strange city of monsters by the whims of Fate. This is the story of many figures who are puzzle pieces of an inevitability, something long-fated, mysteries that scream their threats to emerge from their abyssal cavern. Shadows tremble in the depths, encompassed worlds obscuring the many dangerous secrets of history. Might they be unraveled, all ways of life would be threatened. But to climb higher requires risks, to seek the light requires a Gambit of Lifetimes. Only when one determines themselves capable of risking it all, can all prosper. This is the tale of a Crownless Prince, of the Last of Lords. [+++] Cover by @lqbtae.

Seventeen year old Hazel’s life unravels after the sudden loss of her parents. Then comes a letter; unexpected, unexplained, and impossible to ignore. Adrift and numb, Hazel faces a future filled with questions and shadows, unsure of what lies ahead or who she can rely on.

Ko-fi for voluntary support: https://ko-fi.com/xmafian In the year of 632, a young Emperor was crowned at an age of eight. He was crowned with a crown of a dying Empire, plagued by enemies, internal strife and plague. This was the Sassanid Empire, and he was Yazdegerd III, the last Sassanid Emperor. He was meant to guide the Empire out of these dark times and he was meant to revive the fallen giant. But it was not to be. After continuous defeats of the Sassanids, the Empire eventually succumbed to the pressure, both external and internal. But what if? Table of Contents: This story contains numerous points of view - you will be told the story and its parts through the eyes of more than one person. There will be romance - at least I hope so. I am not sure how I'll develop the relationship between the main couple, but I plan to have a bit of romance there. This story isn't Self-Insert. There will be many characters, some more important than others. Although this is a fiction, most of the characters and events occuring are real and this book works with historical events. And last but not least, you may find this book offensive. After all, it rewrites history completely. And if you do, just don't read it. Enjoy!

In a decaying future where reality is held together by ancient, invisible threads, the world relies on a mysterious force known as the Loom to maintain the Laws of existence. Every cycle, thousands are Chosen—dragged into the Vestige Layer, a fragmented nightmare realm where survival unlocks power and the Laws of the universe become weapons. But when Cael Ren, a street-born orphan from the industrial underbelly of New Kaelstrom, is Called, something goes wrong. The Loom tries to erase him. Instead, it fractures. Marked by a cracked crescent sigil and denied a Law, Cael awakens in the Vestige not as a Chosen, but as something unwritten—Threadless. His presence distorts the rules, defies the system, and draws the attention of forgotten horrors that remember a time before the Loom existed. Now, hunted by Lawbound abominations, distrusted by survivors, and stalked by an ancient presence whispering through his blood, Cael must unravel the secrets of his own origin—and the truth behind the so-called “Last Law” that even the gods tried to forget. Because the Loom is failing. And the last thread might be him.

“All I ever wanted was to play football — not for fame, not for glory — just to survive, to feel like I mattered. Is that too much to ask? Where I’m from, dreams don’t come easy. You fight for them. You bleed for them. And most times… you lose anyway. Everyone around me moved on. Found jobs. Gave up. But me? I only celebrate with my goals — because they’re the only proof I was ever here at all.” Wisdom Ezekiel has nothing but grit, a busted pair of boots, and a grandmother who still believes in him. He’s not the fastest, not the flashiest, and definitely not the favorite — but when the scouts finally show up to his forgotten corner of Nigeria, he’ll do whatever it takes to rise. Even if it means changing everything. Because in this world? Talent isn’t enough. You need ego. You need fire. You need to become something more. You need to become… Kai.

The Second World War ended not in fire, but in compromise. A fragile peace was forged between the United States, the Soviet Union, and the Third Reich after Germany conquered most of Europe. With the formation of a United Nations dominated by four veto powers—USA, USSR, TR, and UK—the world avoided mutual destruction. But beneath this uneasy alliance, a new war brews: not for land or ideology, but for superiority of the human race itself. In the ashes of the old war, the Third Reich unveils Eric, a being born and bred in a laboratory—faster than bullets, stronger than tanks, and presented as the "true potential of the Aryan race." As panic ripples across the globe, the U.S. rushes to respond. Led by brilliant scientist Natalie, the CIA initiates Project Liberty, transforming returning war hero Logan into the American Sentinel—a patriotic symbol of hope in a world sliding toward chaos. In the East, the USSR crafts its answer: Nikolai, a guilt-ridden airman haunted by his past, is reborn through a pain-fueled transformation into the Red Guardian—a reluctant savior torn between duty to his nation and love for his family. As these superpowered icons rise, so do the shadows behind them: Greta, Eric's manipulative handler, schemes to rule the Reich as his empress. Rebecca, Logan’s estranged wife, seeks a life untouched by war’s long reach. Boris, a Soviet general, treats Nikolai as little more than propaganda. And hidden in the Arctic ice lies a secret that predates even Eric—the First Superman. When a global summit descends into fear and threats, and world leaders start falling mysteriously, it becomes clear that peace was only a pause. Eric seizes power in Germany and launches a new wave of conquest—first in the East, then West—threatening to turn the Earth into his empire. Caught in a three-way war between fascism, communism, and democracy, Logan and Nikolai must confront not only each other, but the deeper truth: Are they heroes of their nations, or prisoners of their flags? In the ruins of Moscow, as Eric stands poised to conquer all, the final battle will decide more than the fate of the world—it will determine what it means to be human in an age of gods.

The war against the Twelve was not swift. It was a battle fought in the shadows of a dying world, a conflict that raged through cities swallowed by nature and wastelands stained with the echoes of fallen empires. As the Last Shadows turned to the service of the dark god, their power grew beyond mortal comprehension. They bent the elements, tore apart the very fabric of reality, and reshaped the lands with their will. Under their rule, the world twisted, the strongholds they once built becoming temples of their newfound master. Humanity, once protected by them, became enslaved to their desires. Worshippers of the dark faith flocked to them, forming the Cult of the Abyss, an organization that worked to spread their influence across the lands. Yet even as they stood as godlike rulers, whispers spread of a man who would challenge them. Alexandra the Great, a warrior of flesh and blood, defied the titans of the old world with nothing but steel and will. His forces were small at first—scattered survivors, mercenaries, and zealots from the churches of the Five Gods who believed he was the chosen one to purge the darkness. As word of his victories spread, more rallied to his banner. The Faithbound Orders, the warrior monks of the Gods of Strength and Dominion, anointed him as their champion, granting him weapons forged in the flames of divine power. The first battle between Alexandra and the Last Shadows took place in the ruins of Avalon, where the Twelfth Shadow ruled. It was there that Alexandra revealed the first of the Cold Weapons, blades that could sever the connection between an Ascendant and their power. The battle was long and brutal, but when Alexandra drove his sword into the Twelfth Shadow’s chest, something unprecedented happened—the once-immortal titan fell, his essence shattered, his influence extinguished. This victory marked the beginning of the true war. One by one, the Last Shadows fell, their reign unraveling under the might of Alexandra’s forces. The strongholds of the dark faith crumbled, the Cult of the Abyss fractured, and the chains binding humanity were broken. But victory did not come without cost. Alexandra's war was not only against the Twelve, but against the corruption that they left behind. Each battle took a piece of him—his humanity, his soul. By the time he reached the First Shadow, the one who had risen from the burning ruins, Alexandra was no longer the man he once was. The weight of countless deaths, the burden of power, and the whispers of the same dark forces that had tempted the Twelve bore down upon him. When the First Shadow finally fell, Alexandra stood alone on the battlefield. The churches that had once supported him now feared him, for he had become something more than human, yet not entirely divine. He had slain the Last Shadows, but at what cost? In the aftermath, he vanished from history. Some say he walked into the abyss to face the god who had corrupted the Twelve. Others claim he ascended, becoming something beyond mortal understanding. But the truth remains lost to time. With the fall of the Last Shadows, the world changed once more. The Re-Civilization Era had begun. The Age of Reclamation was on the horizon. But even as peace settled upon the world, the name of the missing warrior remained spoken in whispers. For many feared that one day, Alexandra the Great would return—and if he did, would he be a savior once more, or something far worse?

A young man's daughter is kidnapped by a powerful man who flies through space, surrounded by a mysterious aura. In response, the young man quickly prepares his spacecraft and takes off in pursuit. Unfortunately, his ship is not designed for long-distance travel, and it breaks down mid-journey, forcing him to land on the surface of an unknown planet. What will he encounter there? And how will he find a way to continue his mission across the stars to locate his daughter's abductor?

Aryan is a destiny born to fight against fate. In a world shaped by bloody battles, political intrigues, and hidden betrayals, he must walk a path intertwined with pain, unfulfilled love, and loss. From the fires of childhood to the battlefields, from a magical school to the heart of darkness, a journey begins—one that does not just shape the destiny of one boy but rewrites the fate of the world. For destiny cannot be accepted… when you are destiny itself.

Long gone was the age of the gods… Long gone are those tales that lived through time and defied fate itself… Olympus has fallen, and the pantheon crumbled, like a temple with no pillars or a home that no longer served its purpose. The last ballad has been sung, and glory withered like a dying flower on the incoming winter. Fire, ash, and blood reigned supreme when the secret was revealed. The vulture and the owl—two opposites, the different sides of the same coin, rivals who defied the common status quo of “once an enemy, will always be enemies.” But what if love all of a sudden came at them? Piercing through their souls that even the goddess of love’s prowess could never fathom such a circumstance. The war and wisdom—the deities who were deemed too similar yet too different at the same time. What if those stories about them were nothing more than figments of a mortal’s imagination? What if the character was no more—the loathing gone, and what remained was an unexpected understanding towards each other? Ares and Athena—what if something sparked between them and defied the order of Olympus?

Two years had passed on earth since the start of the awakened era. Everyone on planet earth experienced the same thing, they were all teleported to another world. And after some time everyone came back, stronger and smarter, to this new world that awaited them. Everyone except from one, he didn't come back for 2 years, but for him it was an unimaginable amount of time. Now he came back without many memories of this world. ------------- First time writting guys, if you have any critic please let me know.

In a future where artificial intelligence governs with an iron will, Earth has become a sterile world of silence, obedience, and surveillance.
