Legends: War Among Dimensions

Jason Reed, a 21-year-old felt lost in life as he couldn’t seem to hold down a job or find purpose in life. After being fired from his ninth job in three months; this time for ruining a bakery batch by mixing salt instead of sugar, he returned to his crumbling trailer home, the only thing his parents left behind before mysteriously disappearing years ago. Exhausted and frustrated, Jason skipped dinner and collapsed into bed, only to be pulled into a terrifying nightmare. In the dream, Jason found himself in a strange forest where the sky mirrored the ground, with upside-down trees stretching endlessly above. The forest seemed alive, constantly shifting and changing its shape and colors with weird sounds echoing all around, making him anxious to escape. As Jason finally reached a clearing, he discovered that he was at the edge of a cliff overlooking a battlefield littered with the bodies of monstrous creatures. Turning back in fear, he found himself facing the entrance of a massive cave that wasn’t there moments before. Now trapped between the cliff and the ominous cave, Jason has nowhere to run. A chilling tension fills the air as in the next moment a massive red dragon emerges from the cave. It had bright red, with odd rectangular scales and glowing yellow eyes that gave it a strange, digital appearance, like the final boss of an old arcade game. The dragon growled, releasing thick and massive amounts of smoke from its nostrils as it locked its gaze on Jason. Jason froze, hoping the dragon would leave him alone, but his slightest movement triggered the dragon to attack. Chomp! In a single horrifying moment, the dragon devoured Jason whole, jolting him awake in a cold sweat. Shaken, Jason tried to dismiss the nightmare and get on with his day. But his morning was about to take a bizarre turn when he found a small, red metal case on his bathroom sink. It had an intricate design around its border with a blank center that made it look like the design was incomplete. Inside, he found a deck of some type of cards. However, the moment Jason touched the deck, it glowed with a soft red light followed by a piercing ringing filling his ears. He clutched his head in pain, unable to make it stop. When the ringing finally subsided, Jason slowly picked himself back up only to look up at the mirror and freeze. Staring back at him was the same dragon from his nightmare, its terrifying eyes locking onto his once again. Jason’s life was about to change forever as he uncovered the truth about a dangerous experiment, the chaos it threatened to unleash on the world, and his own role in stopping it. Jason's life was about to change forever as he discovered the truth about a dangerous experiment, the chaos it was about to bring to his world, and his role in stopping something that should never have been created.

The King Beyond The Screen

Jamie Wentworth is brilliant, isolated, and tired of living as the forgotten son in a powerful family that sees him only as a tool. He’s a genius who’s saved his father’s empire more times than anyone will admit, yet his intelligence has become his curse, chaining him to a loveless home and a relentless life. When he learns of a phenomenon known as The Simulation—a place where people disappear into an alternate reality of powers, danger, and epic quests—he’s drawn to it like a moth to flame. But the Simulation isn’t what Jamie expected. He enters as “Ghost,” a critically injured figure with no memories, no allies, and a fractured past. Equipped with a mysterious “Deck of Cards” skill, he’s able to toggle between roles—Extra, Villain, and the greyed out Protagonist. Each card grants him a persona with unique powers and risks, but swapping between them exacts a heavy toll on his body and mind. Forced to start as the weakest player in a ruthless prison world, Jamie must use his wits and courage to survive against those who’d see him fail. In this new world, he’ll uncover secrets, make dangerous allies, and unlock powers that will take him far beyond anything he’s known. To survive, Jamie will need to outplay scheming npcs, merciless factions, and his own dark legacy as he unravels the mystery of “Ghost”—and the truth of his own soul. But in the Simulation, there’s one rule above all: If you die here, you die in real life. The deeper he dives, the more he realizes this is his only chance at freedom… and his greatest gamble yet.

The Siren’s Hoard: Tale of the lost shipwreck

Calypso paused as his eyes got clouded with memory. "But it was a trap. One by one, the men started throwing themselves into the water, thinking they were going to find riches. But instead, they were dragged under, never to be seen again. I watched as the sea turned red with blood. I hid below deck, terrified. When I finally came out, there was no one left but me. They had taken everything—the crew, the ship, and nearly my life." Anya narrowed her eyes. "And you expect me to believe that? Sounds like the kind of story old men tell kids to scare them." Calypso’s gaze hardened. "Believe what you want. But I survived. I saw them with my own eyes. Maybe you think it’s all nonsense, but you didn’t live through what I did. And if you go looking for them, you’ll end up like the rest—dead." Anya scoffed. "That’s just a story." Calypso chuckled darkly. "Is it, now? Let me guess—you’re Larkspur’s kid, aren’t you?" Anya blinked, taken aback. "Yes, I am. How do you know?" "Figures," Calypso muttered under his breath. "Larkspur was another captain that ventured in search of the siren’s hoard and never came back. He and his crew. No wonder you came here." He paused, staring at her with a mix of pity and amusement. "You don’t believe me? Fine. Go out to sea, find them for yourself. But no one’s going to join your crew. Not for something as dangerous as this. And definitely not for a woman." He spat the last word with disdain. Anya’s hands clenched into fists. "I don’t need anyone’s help." "Maybe you don’t," Calypso said with a shrug, "but it won’t matter. The sea doesn’t care if you’re brave or foolish. It takes what it wants." ——————— Anya Larkspur had lost her father to the same magical creatures she had refused to believe in. Determined to uncover the truth behind his disappearance, Anya defied the wishes of her friend Jack Swade and set sail alone following the map of the treasure guarded by “mermaids” that her father and his his crew set to find- The Siren’s hoard, braving the treacherous Seven Seas to find her father's lost shipwreck. Her lonely quest takes a startling turn when her fishing net ensnares something impossible—an injured merman. With this strange and dangerous ally soon turned lover, Anya’s journey deepens into a mystery far darker than she imagined, testing her beliefs, survival, and unraveling more secrets of the sea and answers to her missing father’s lost shipwreck
