Stronghold Crusader Voices

Are your own voices echoing in an empty room more frightening, or is it being alone in that room with loneliness itself? How did I get to this situation? How could I be so reckless? Why did everyone see my life as normal? Why is it that while I'm running to hell, there are only spectators around me? As it is stated in Surat al-Kahf: "And you will understand that you will find no refuge other than Allah.” This verse became a light in the darkness surrounding my life, and I finally realized that I had no one to take refuge from except my Lord. I have found no other refuge from him. When I said that everything was over, my great miracle was included in my life. But I'm not worthy of him, nor is this heart of mine sensible enough to understand that… I guarantee a story that you will read with bated breath... how many pieces will Merve's world be divided into? Will Furkan be able to heal his wounds, or will he deepen those wounds even more? This is the story of finding yourself, getting lost and surviving... Are you ready to step into Merve's world now?

Fifty years ago, a meteorite struck Earth, unleashing a wave of radiation that changed humanity forever. Mutations spread across the population, gifting some with extraordinary powers. From this chaos emerged six individuals of unparalleled strength, granted the title of "Gods." These powerful beings were each granted a domain—a unique stronghold where other mutants could challenge them for their title. To succeed in slaying a God was to ascend in their place, if successful you are given a special domain of your own. In half a century, only three challengers have claimed a godly title, leaving three of the original Gods still standing. The world remains a fractured and perilous place, dominated by these divine figures and their fiercely contested realms. Banri, an 18-year-old mutant with a fiery determination, has decided to carve his name into history. Tired of a life in the shadows, he sets his sights on dethroning one of the Gods. With his abilities untested against such overwhelming power, Banri embarks on a dangerous journey to rise above all others. The path to godhood is treacherous, but Banri is willing to risk it all to claim his destiny. Will he become a legend—or just another forgotten challenger crushed beneath the might of the Gods?
