The Chronicles of the Returned: The Book of Telamon

The Chronicles of the Returned: The Book of Telamon A mythic warrior reborn in the shadow of modern war. A city drowning in ancient prophecy. A shield that remembers. Set between the dreamlike decay of Venice and the blood-soaked ruins of the Balkans, The Chronicles of the Returned – The Book of Telamon is a haunting, visionary epic that merges Greek tragedy, military trauma, and ritual horror. Its protagonist — known only as “The Balkan's wolf” — is no ordinary veteran. He is Ajax reborn: once the son of Telamon, now a shell-shocked ex-UN soldier plagued by visions spoken in Mycenaean Greek and dreams of a blood-soaked fig tree. Haunted by the loss of his wife and child, Ajax seeks answers in the underworlds of Europe’s forgotten cities — where human traffickers like the mysterious and elusive Nessuno (Odysseus) reign. Nessuno has become the modern embodiment of the oligarch : a global oligarch who trades in organs, flesh, and lost souls aboard his AI-powered black yacht, Argo. In the ruins of Marghera, whispers rise of a “pure delivery” — a child untouched, immaculate organs to be harvested an dsold to the undernet. A sacrifice. Meanwhile, in the war-ravaged past, Tychios — a former Red Brigades engineer turned Balkan arms dealer — rebuilds the shield of Ajax from a battlefield anti-riot shell. A hybrid artifact of myth and modern warfare, engraved with a winged goddess who neither forgives nor forgets. Every throw of the dice, every fig in the market, every ghost in the therapy circle — leads Ajax closer to the reckoning that has followed him through centuries. In a narrative that evokes the psychological tension of True Detective, the noir textures of The Third Man, and the existential tragedy of the Iliad, this book asks: What happens when the myths we buried return to collect their debt?

The Legend of the Uncharted Island

In the 17th century, the infamous pirate Verbeck terrorized the Spanish colonies, amassing a fortune beyond imagination. But his greatest secret isn’t hidden in the Caribbean… it lies on a mysterious island in another world, where he concealed his treasure along with an artifact of unimaginable power: A legendary relic forged by a forgotten and mysterious civilization. Centuries later, a failed writer steals an old journal describing a sailor’s journey in search of an island that appears on no map. Inspired, he writes a novel based on the accounts—unaware that its publication will provoke the wrath of the Spanish Empire and the Holy Inquisition, who see more than mere fiction in its pages. Accused of heresy, the writer is imprisoned. But before his arrest, he hides a crucial clue to the treasure. When his granddaughter uncovers the truth, she sets out to investigate, only to be pulled into the same deadly conspiracy. Her path soon crosses with that of a young Jesuit priest—himself a descendant of Verbeck—who is also on the trail of the lost island. Together, they join the crew of Captain Skippy, a daring elf in the service of the Sylvandrian colony, a hidden elven enclave on the fringes of British Georgia. With his homeland on the brink of economic collapse, Skippy sees this treasure hunt as their last hope for survival. But they are not the only ones chasing Verbeck’s fortune. A ruthless viceroy, a bloodthirsty pirate, and fanatical inquisitors—driven by dark forces—are all willing to kill for the relic and the cursed gold. For Skippy, his crew, and their unexpected allies, the journey will become more than a treasure hunt—it will be an odyssey that challenges the laws of their world and uncovers secrets that were never meant to be revealed.

When else will you get the chance to be a king and vie for supremacy? The system bestowed powers upon chosen individuals, granting limitless luck. Lein, an ordinary office worker, received the SSS-rank talent - Infinity Duplicate. There was nothing in this world that he couldn't duplicate, not even god-tier materials. The path to becoming the strongest lay before him. Yet, Lein knew all too well that it required a process. Even the gods needed a process to create the universe. The Divine Sky Realm offered a fantastical life that Earth's humans had always dreamed of. Soaring through the skies, shattering mountains, rising to the pinnacle in all endeavors. But humans remain humans, wherever they are, driven by their innate nature: greedy and unaware of their limits. Humans believed they were the sole inhabitants of the universe, thinking only they received the system's fortune. But reality proved otherwise. Other races in the universe were granted the same blessings, without distinction. In fact, the human physique was considered low-tier. Races like the Wood Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Dragons, and countless others possessed bodies that defied the heavens from the outset. Could humans survive in the Divine Sky Realm? We can only hope for the best. The humans found themselves in a realm where dreams and nightmares walked hand in hand, a place where every desire and fear took form. Floating islands became their new kingdoms, a testament to their newfound power and ambition.
