This story is historical fiction with a touch of magic. Viking raids began in the late 8th century, particularly in the Western Isles and the Northern Isles of what is now Scotland and with attacks on monasteries and coastal towns in what is now Ireland. This story follows Deirdre O Cleirigh, a young girl in the idyllic village of Ulster, who dreams of adventure and heroism beyond her modest upbringing. Growing up in a land threatened by Viking invaders, her childhood is shaped by tales of courage and resilience passed down through generations. As the Vikings attack, Deirdre's spirit emboldens throughout her turbulent youth; compelled by the need to protect her family and home, she becomes a skilled warrior. As the siege intensifies, she gathers a coalition of warriors and citizens, inspiring them with her unwavering resolve and leadership. The turning point comes when Deirdre realizes that victory can only be achieved through the unity of all the people of Ulster—not just her warriors. Rallying the citizens, she empowers them to join the fight, tapping into their shared heritage and strength. Together, with the aid of local druids and her innate tactical skills, they craft a counter-offensive strategy to reclaim their city and their country. In a climactic battle, Deirdre leads her forces against the Viking stronghold, demonstrating courage, tactical acumen, and the power of community. Despite heavy sacrifices, the united front of citizens and warriors overwhelms the Vikings, forcing them into retreat. As the dust settles, Deirdre stands as a triumphant leader—heart heavy with the cost of victory but filled with hope for the future. Through her journey, Deirdre transforms from a frightened girl into a revered leader, fostering a new order in Ulster dedicated to fairness and resilience. The story highlights themes of unity, sacrifice, and the strength found in community, establishing a foundation for lasting peace and the flourishing of Ulster under her leadership. This is her story.

"They called him a thief, a traitor, a legend. But Elias Veyne was just a boy who refused to kneel." In the sun-washed kingdom of Valenor, where the royal House of Solas rules with divine right and the power of Royal Edict—commands spoken in sunlight that cannot be disobeyed—Elias Veyne is born into the shadowed edges of the middle class. His father is a scribe, his mother a weaver, and his older brother Theron a loyal soldier-in-training. Elias is unremarkable in every way—until the day he fails his exams and realizes the truth: knowledge is power, and power is locked away from those not born beneath the sun’s blessing. When the royal Choosing Ceremony assigns him the humble Verdant Art (a Path meant for farmers and healers), Elias refuses his fate. He sneaks into the royal library and steals the first of many forbidden truths: Frost Logic, the icy discipline of the war-torn continent Veymar. His theft burns half the library down, branding him a criminal—and awakening a hunger for more. Driven by fury and the memory of his brother’s betrayal (for Theron, ever the loyalist, disowns him), Elias flees Valenor. His journey takes him across the five continents: Veymar, where he learns Frost Logic by standing in frozen rivers until his legs go numb. Kharaz, where he bargains with a merchant-lord for Coin’s Will, trading his blood for power—and debt. Sylvain, where rebels teach him the deadly side of Verdant Art, poisoning his own veins to grow weaponized thorns. The Unnamed Isle, where whispers tell him the final Path—Echo Walk, the power of the dead—awaits. But power comes at a cost. Each stolen discipline wastes his body: his hands frostbitten, his voice ruined from mimicking Royal Edict, his skin rotting from thorns. Worse, the Solas family hunts him, twisting his legend into that of a madman. When Elias returns to Valenor, it’s not as a hero, but as a living rebellion. He proves that Royal Edict can be wielded by anyone—shattering the divine right of kings. The people rise, the palace burns, and in the chaos, Elias confronts Theron, now a captain in the Solas army. Their final stand is not between brothers, but between faith and freedom. Theron, bound by duty, fires the execution shot—but misses on purpose. Elias, his body failing, dies mid-speech, his last words unfinished. Legends say he walks the Unnamed Isle still, a shadow with five scars—one for each continent, and one for the brother who loved him too late.

In the Britta Isle, amidst the ceaseless conflict betwixt the formidable Kingdom of Axalon and the steadfast Kingdom of Skoland, a pivotal battle at Aber Harbour seems poised to deliver a crushing blow to one side. Yet, from the ashes of this fray, there emerges an enigmatic warrior, known only by whispers as the "Fiery Knight." This figure, wreathed in an unearthly glow and possessing strength that defies comprehension, confounds both allies and adversaries alike, his very existence questioning the known laws of this war-torn world and sparking a new fear, or perhaps, a new hope. His sudden appearance casts a long shadow, hinting at untold secrets and a power beyond mortal understanding, shifting the very balance of the ongoing struggle.

I like text to speech so I'm giving a shot at present tense second person writing to lean into a listener's POV. Enjoy! I use Sonia en-GB for the narrator at 1.5 times speed. Probably read this though, kind of left it out the story by making it the synopsis by accident. lol Tavern doors never close on the festive dockside. Traders, settlers, wanderers, and outlaws gather, drawn by the excitement of the New World. The air smells of smoke, salt and sweat, sails catch wind beside steam locomotives' whistles and pistons, each vessel either arriving with strange goods and stranger tales or departing with the thunderous farewells. You step aboard one of them, another spirited adventurer in the crowd, and spend months at sea from docks to coasts, continents to isles, to steam across a windless sea under an endless night sky. When sunlight hits your deck once more, it reveals the New World's waters, like pouring paint into the void. You see the distant sails in the harbour of a forested continent and cheer with the exclamations of waking passengers upon seeing the continent, name pending (fr), no sovereigns and no laws. The landing of all those visiting from the Old World, a boiling pot of all kinds of cultures with each person's distinct flavours of friends, enemies, grudges and dreams. Without hesitation you leave it behind and vanish into the forest, wanting simply to dedicate your life to exploring the interior of the continent. How surprising is it when you found that the elves are all sleeping beauties! Capture them all! Hahahahahahahaha!

In a land scattered by tribes and divided by tradition, one soul from another time awakens in the body of a young man named Kai. With no magic, no prophecy—only memory and will—he rises through the ranks of the ancient Confederacy of Madja-as, a fragile alliance of coastal kingdoms and highland tribes in the heart of the Philippine islands. But unity is a dream paid in blood. As Kai forges alliances, reforms laws, uplifts the forgotten, and modernizes warfare, he finds himself battling not just rival kingdoms like Brunei and the shifting tides of Chinese and Javanese power—but also the resistance of his own people. From canoes to warships, from village moats to a Parliament of lords and commons, Madja-as begins its transformation into a sovereign power. Spanning generations of struggle, war, diplomacy, and reform, "The Crown of Madja-as" tells the sweeping story of a people finding their identity—not through conquest, but through courage, culture, and the enduring fire of leadership. But even as crowns are passed and banners rise, a question burns through the heart of the isles: Can a kingdom born of unity survive the weight of legacy?

Novel Synopsis: Chronicles of the Awakened Liam Stone, a pragmatic college student with a firmly scientific worldview, finds his ordinary life upended when he's accidentally added to the 'Conclave of Arcane Lore'—an online group he dismisses as eccentric role-players. But after witnessing inexplicable celestial events and encountering Fae Willow, an ethereal, lost young woman claiming to be from the mythical Spirit Isles, Liam is forced to confront an unbelievable truth: magic is real, and it's far more dangerous than any fantasy. Stranded in the mortal realm due to a severed mystical conduit, Fae Willow becomes Liam's unlikely charge. As insidious Shadow Weavers—entities that feed on fear and spiritual energy—begin to exploit the weakening veil between realms, Liam discovers a startling power within himself: a 'Heart of Lumina,' a pure, unwavering intent that can repel darkness. Guided by cryptic messages from the Conclave and propelled by a growing sense of responsibility, Liam must bridge the gap between his mundane reality and the mystical world. His journey takes him from forgotten urban enclaves to the breathtaking wonders of the Spirit Isles, culminating in a desperate bid to mend the fractured veil itself. But even as the cosmic balance is restored, Liam realizes his true path has only just begun. He is now a guardian of two worlds, forever changed by the extraordinary secrets he carries, balancing his ordinary life with a hidden vigil against the encroaching shadows.

Survival Odyssey: Lord of the Isles Adrift on a splintered plank, GuNings eyes snapped open to an endless expanse of churning sea. The voice of Tianmu, the continent's divine will, resonated in his mind: he'd been thrust into the realm of the Lords, where survival hinged on navigating treacherous waters to claim an island and plant his domain.

From the barest beginnings, he summoned armies, rallied enchanting heroines from diverse races, and erected a sprawling empire brick by bloodstained brick. His ambition knew no bounds: to rise from castaway to sovereign, a conqueror of worlds beyond imagination.

In a fractured sky where floating continents drift over the endless void, memory is no longer permanent. Kael Virex, a quiet boy who sketches reality into being, and Zayen Thorne, his electrifying and impulsive brother, live on the scrap-isle of Kairoth — until a living crystal crashes into their lives and shatters everything they know. Touched by the unknown, they begin to unravel the truth: their world is not only broken, but forgetting itself. With every island that vanishes, with every person who blinks and forgets, the brothers grow stronger — but also less themselves. Hunted by the mysterious Pale Order, chased by assassins who erase laws of nature, and entangled in mysterious romances — one with a girl made of memories, and the other with a rebel courier who might not be real — Kael and Zayen must uncover the truth behind the “Pulse” that links them… before they forget who they are.

Endless Worlds When twenty-three-year-old Kolya “Treyan” Oreheart plugs into Endless Worlds, the Dyson-Sphere MMO where every ore vein can be traded for real cash, he isn’t chasing glory—he’s racing a loan-shark’s seven-day deadline. Armed with a glitchy “Ore Sense,” a battered pick, and a geology degree he never got to use, Kolya tunnels through toxic caverns, corporate griefers, and an economy ruled by the brutal Ironclad guild. One wrong swing means real-world ruin for the kid brother and sister who depend on him. But the deeper Kolya digs, the more the game reshapes itself around blue-collar courage. Unionizing miners, hacking together homemade drills, and out-smarting elite raiders, he sparks an uprising that turns work into legend. From collapsing sulfur tunnels to vacuum-sealed mythril vaults and sky-whale-shadowed floating isles, Endless Worlds becomes a frontier where every pick stroke is a vote for hope. With loan collectors closing in offline and a guild bounty on his avatar in-game, Kolya must lead a ragtag crew of rangers, dwarven sappers, and alchemist pranksters on one last descent—toward the Heart of the Mountain, a boss nobody has ever beaten. If he cracks it, he’ll rewrite his family’s future and the rules of the world itself. If he fails, both realms will bury him in the dark. For fans of Ready Player One and Kings of the Wyld, this LitRPG epic melds high-stakes adventure, labor-punk spirit, and found-family heart into a story where hard work truly earns the world—and then dares you to dream bigger.

"Can someone without a heart still live?" In Linh Khư, the world itself is a wound in the heavens - torn, scarred, and alive with ancient power. Four continents rule the outer lands: empires of immortals, warring sects, oceanic isles, and beast-ruled wilderness.

He bears no pulse, no warmth - only a question: "Can someone without a heart still live?"

“Xed is Xed, Xed is not Xed, yet Xed is Xed again! Who speaks? Xed speaks! Who listens? Xed listens! Who reads? Xed reads, for thou art Xed, unless thou art not, but even so, Xed knows! Xed was before, Xed is now, Xed shall be after, yet Xed is not bound to before, nor now, nor after — for Xed is Xed! Say ‘Xed’ thrice, and thou hast said nothing; say ‘Xed’ once, and thou hast said all! Xed within Xed, without Xed, through Xed, beyond Xed! Is Xed a name, a word, a whisper, a wheel? Xed laughs, for Xed is laughter! Xed weeps, for Xed is tears! Xed asks, ‘Who art thou?’ and Xed answers, ‘Thou art thou, unless thou art Xed!’ Be warned, O reader, for the Sayings of Xed are the Speakings of Xed, and the Speakings of Xed are the Makings of Xed, and the Makings of Xed are the Breakings of Xed, yet all return unto Xed! Speak not lightly, read not lightly, for each word of Xed is a thousand Xeds, and each thousand is but one, and the one is the none, and the none is the all — Xed! Xed! Xed!”

“Before the reckoning of days and the weaving of stars, the Wheel turned upon the face of the deep, and by the casting of lots was dominion given to LUMAD, the First Maker, who raised the isles from the abyss and wrought the gods of sky, stone, dream, and sea. Yet the beginning is veiled in mist, and the end lieth beyond the sight of gods and men. As the gods strive and the people of the isles lift their songs, LUMAD resteth crowned upon the Dragon’s Beak, His dreams binding the world. But it is told that at the last turning of the Wheel, the First and the Last shall awaken, unmaking all, and shaping anew the worlds and gods yet to be.”

Trapped by relentless currents, Elias washes ashore on a forgotten island where humanity has shattered.

In a desperate race against madness and starvation, he must rely on his wits to survive… or risk becoming the monster he dreads most.

Set in a fantastical xianxia realm, the narrative unfolds around “Yucheng Isle”—one of Taoism’s seventy-two blessed sanctuaries—chronicling the tale of Lu Chen, a youth from Jiaohu Town who becomes unwittingly entangled in the tumultuous struggle triggered by the emergence of the celestial artifact, the “Soul-Seeking Mirror.” Various factions (immortal sects, demonic cults, and monstrous beasts) engage in overt and covert battles for possession of this divine instrument, while Lu Chen, through a serendipitous twist of fate, gains the recognition of a celestial spirit, irrevocably altering his destiny. The story employs the advent of the Soul-Seeking Mirror to depict a cultivation world brimming with both peril and promise. At its core, the conflict revolves around the ruthless contention for the artifact, laying bare the avarice and machinations of rival powers. Simultaneously, through Lu Chen’s journey of growth, the narrative underscores the pivotal role of “fortuitous encounters” and “inner virtue” in the path of immortality. Ultimately, the celestial spirit’s choice of Lu Chen—an “unforeseen heir”—hints at a subversion of traditional cultivation norms, artfully foreshadowing the upheavals yet to come.

Each reset reveals new truths but also brings darker dangers. In a game where losing means more than death, can Ren break the curse and escape the endless loop?

“It’s almost like these chains were made for you,” a mischievous smirk travelled across his lips as he clasped a chain around my neck. Everything about him commanded worship. From his devilishly cutthroat demeanor, to the contrasting angelic features that the gods had wrongly blessed him with. But I would never bow before a man that I hated with an unquenchable fire. “You disgust me,” I spat, ignoring the throb of arousal in my core. He laughed, harshly forcing me to fall to my knees using the chains and thrusting his pulsing cock into my mouth. “Problem solved,” he grinned, “be quiet, my little cherry slave.” *** Damon lures his rival’s mate, Ava into the capital city of Crescent Isle under the guise of a fashion scholarship. He simply intends to use her as bait to lure her mate into his waiting trap… But one taste of her and he’s so obsessed that he makes her his sex slave.

Aedan, a young and resolute navy captain, is entrusted with a mission: to uncover hidden isles whispered of in legends and cloaked in mystery. The empire's future hangs in the balance, dependent on the secrets these elusive lands may hold. With his steadfast crew and a few trusted friends, Aedan sets sail into the great unknown. Their journey is anything but ordinary. Navigating through waters charted by none, they encounter phenomena that defy explanation and adversaries that test their very limits. As they draw closer to their elusive destination, the line between reality and legend blurs. Will Aedan and his crew uncover the truth, or will they be lost forever in the countless legends of the deep?

Magic's infancy lingered in the air as countless faiths sprouted like wildflowers. Arcane practitioners lurked beyond mortal tread—from the relic-stricken citadel of Anrovis to the Zezhou Isles where resurrection peaks pierced crimson clouds. Witchcraft ruins whispered forgotten curses, incantation-driven assassins stalked prey, leviathan carcasses petrified valleys, azure-faced wraiths haunted moonlit marshes, and mechanical horrors from beyond epochs rattled iron bones. Thus began the most fantastical pilgrimage through realms defying reason. By the artificial lake of Thornbriar Academy, a self-proclaimed top student dangled his hookless fishing rod while scheming examination fraud. The line jerked violently. What emerged from the ripples wasn't scaled nor finned, but a soggy border collie blinking with human-like bewilderment. "Since when did mutts start transmigrating?!"

Based on the movie Descendants, "Scions" tells the tale of two rival islands—The Damned Isle, known for its dark history and inhabitants, and Dreamville, the land of honorable and virtuous people. For over a thousand years, these islands have been at odds, their only connection an enchanted bridge that serves as both a physical and mystical barrier. Yohan, Jake, Kendall, and Faye, descendants of the most notorious villains who once terrorized Dreamville, reside on The Damned Isle. Despite their ancestry, they yearn to break free from the shadows of their forebears and to change the negative perceptions held by Dreamville's residents. They believe that the time has come to unite the islands and end the centuries-old rivalry. The four friends embark on a quest to reopen the enchanted bridge, a feat that requires them to prove their intentions are pure. Along the way, they must confront their own fears, face the prejudices of both islands, and overcome magical obstacles that test their resolve. Their journey is one of self-discovery, courage, and the belief that even those from The Damned Isle can choose a path of honor and goodness. As they inch closer to their goal, Yohan, Jake, Kendall, and Faye learn that true change starts from within and that unity can only be achieved through understanding and acceptance. The Scions is a story of hope, forgiveness, and the transformative power of friendship.

Two men. Two ideologies. One deadly race. High above the legendary Isle of Man TT course, two powerful businessmen dine in a luxury air balloon and debate the meaning of greatness. One believes that true legacy comes from integrity, grit, and sacrifice. The other swears by wealth, power, and cold logic. Their conversation ends in a bet that could cost lives. The challenge: each must find and train amateur Indian riders—complete outsiders to the world of high-speed motorsport—to qualify for the next Isle of Man TT, the world’s most dangerous motorcycle race. No Indian has ever made it to the start line... until now. As time runs out and preparations begin, The Bet unravels into a gripping story of ambition, risk, and the unyielding human spirit. When glory can't be bought—can it still be earned?

I came to this island thinking it would be peaceful—just a quiet place to clear my head. But there’s something here, something that doesn’t feel right. It started with little things, things I could almost ignore. But now… now I’m in too deep. And I don’t know if I’m getting out.
