DESTINY GAMES. It has been 85 years since Earth-11 became aligned with Yggdrasil and 73 years since Icon became the first demigod from Earth. Icon, as the first demigod, was privileged to weave the thread of fate for everyone. He was supposed to cut off Yggdrasil and free Earth-11 from the grasps of the other Earths and their god kings. That's why everyone helped him climb the tower of Destiny. But instead of ridding earth of Yggdrasil, he turned the destiny of mankind into seven rings of immortality.  The first ring was for the immortality of power. The second was for the immortality of the knowledge. The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth were for the immortality of the mind, energy, body, and soul. The last ring, the ring of the paragon, was made to rule them all.  Icon kept the ring of the paragon for himself and became a dictator. He ruled with an iron fist for many years. His was a reign of terror. But he was eventually vanquished by the collective effort of the world.  It has been 62 years since then. Icon is no more, but the damage he had done still remains. Earth-11 is still connected to Yggdrasil. The deadly games of the Tower of Destiny still remain, and the fight for the seven rings of immortality still continues.  Kelvin Thorn has just awakened his ability. It came at a good time too since he is running for his life. The ability he awakened saved him, but it came with a cost. He must climb the tower of destiny under the witness of the whole world and accumulate destiny, or he will die.  His situation is not unique. Everyone that awakens, which is mostly everyone, must climb the tower of destiny. It is one of the curses that Icon left behind before he died. But Thorn is different because the seventh ring found him.  The tower of destiny is where everyone granted power by destiny, be they humans, non-humans, or otherworlders, must fight in games of might, skill, and knowledge to gather the power of destiny. They will either die or eventually overcome death. Kelvin will be one of the latest in the line of billions of others in this struggle.

A shadow, a sword, a dragon’s cry Whispers of a life that passed him by. In mortal form, he must now fight, For pieces lost, for ancient light. The celestial court, the betrayal deep, Promises made, the ones he keeps. Love, a curse, both sharp and sweet, A battle to rise, to stand, to defeat. For ten thousand years, his soul has roamed, In search of peace, a place to call home. But the past still haunts, a silent scream, In the human world, he chases a dream.

In a world once dominated by beasts of unimaginable power, humanity clung to survival with the fragile shield of magic. These creatures—swift as storms, strong as mountains, and capable of wielding the very elements—were gods of the land, while humans were little more than prey. For centuries, mankind fought valiantly but always at a loss. Then came the day everything changed. He was known only as the First Crafter. A mysterious sorcerer, both revered and feared, who unearthed an ancient, forbidden art not of this world: the Beast Slaying Art. From it, he learned to extract the heartstones of fallen beasts—the very source of their might—and forge them into rings that could grant their power to men. With the first Beast Ring, created from the heartstone of a Swiftfang Wolf, the First Crafter became more than human. He moved faster than the wind, struck with deadly precision, and for the first time, man stood equal to beast. But power breeds ambition. The secrets of the Beast Rings did not remain his alone for long. Kingdoms, empires, and rival sorcerers, driven by greed and fear, hunted the First Crafter, tearing his knowledge from him and spreading it across the world. Humanity gained a weapon of unparalleled potential, and with it, the balance between man and beast was shattered forever. Now, Beast Rings are both a blessing and a curse. Wielded by Slayers, they are tools of war, ambition, and survival. The beasts that once ruled are hunted, their numbers dwindling, while humanity fractures into kingdoms vying for dominance. But as old powers awaken and chaos grows, whispers speak of a coming reckoning—one that could unmake the world as easily as the First Crafter’s creation once reshaped it. Amid this storm of ambition and blood, fifteen-year-old Kairon Falken lives a peaceful life in the quiet village of Tenang, unaware of the truth surrounding his origins. Raised by his strict yet loving Aunt Myra and ever-cheerful Uncle Garin, Kairon dreams of adventure, of exploring the mountains and forests beyond his sheltered home. But secrets have a way of surfacing, and Kairon is about to be thrust into a legacy he cannot yet comprehend. In a world where Beast Rings hold the power to change fate itself, Kairon must face the ultimate question: Will he rise as a savior, or will he become the harbinger of destruction for both beast and man?

Eine Bedrohung. Ein Delinquent. Eine Enttäuschung. Wenn Sie jemanden fragen, wie er Jiang Yue beschreiben würde, wären es diese drei Worte. Sie hat einen schlechten Ruf. Sie brach die Schule im Alter von 6 Jahren ab und verließ ihren Vater, der in einem vegetativen Zustand war, um in anderen Städten Chaos zu stiften. Dafür ist sie bekannt. Alle dachten, dass sie ihre Tage damit verbrachte, in Schwierigkeiten zu geraten und ihr Leben rücksichtslos zu leben. Was andere jedoch nicht wussten, war, dass diese Worte weit von dem entfernt sind, was sie tatsächlich ist! Ein Genie! Sie hat einen schlechten Ruf, weil sie nie zögert, Gewalt gegen diejenigen anzuwenden, die ihr schaden wollen. Sie hat die Schule im Alter von sechs Jahren abgebrochen, weil sie alles gelernt hat, was es in der Schule zu lernen gibt! Sie verließ ihren Vater, um eine Maschine zu bauen, die ihm helfen könnte, sich zu erholen, und sie streifte umher, um diejenigen zu finden, die ihren Vater verletzt hatten, und ihn zu rächen! Sie wird niemanden verschonen, der ihrer Familie geschadet hat! Sie wird die Bastarde finden, die ihren älteren Bruder getötet, ihren Vater in einen vegetativen Zustand versetzt und ihre Schwester verletzt haben. Doch die Dinge liefen nicht so, wie sie sollten. Sie ist zurück in der High School, um ihr Versprechen gegenüber ihrer Schwester einzulösen, aber warum hat sie stattdessen einen anhänglichen jungen Meister an sich gebunden? *** In einer bestimmten Nacht trafen sich Jiang Yue und Luo Zhelan in einer unerwarteten Situation. An diesem Tag hatte Luo Zhelan keine Ahnung, dass die Frau, die mit einer Waffe in der blutigen Hand vor seinem Auto stand, die Frau sein würde, die sein Leben vervollständigen würde. "Junger Meister Luo, die junge Frau ist wieder ein Trend auf Weibo!" Ein Untergebener berichtete. Der junge Meister kniff die Augen zusammen: "Was ist es diesmal wieder?" "Es stellt sich heraus, dass sie die Person hinter Allico Intelligence ist! Sie hat das Unternehmen gegründet und es zu einem der führenden Tech-Giganten des Landes gemacht!" Ein gewisser Untergebener berichtete. "Bruder Zhe, es hat sich etwas herumgesprochen!" Sein guter Freund rief ihm zu. Luo Zhelan fragte: "Was für Neuigkeiten?" "Schwägerin ist Shadow! Der Top-Assassine, der 'Fallen Vengeance' ins Leben gerufen hat! Die Liga, die aus allen gefürchteten Attentätern besteht!" "Junger Meister Luo, sehen Sie sich diesen Posten an!" "Sohn, warum nennt Direktor Wei Xiao Yue 'Schüler'?" "Bruder Zhe, Schwägerin hat Altersky erschaffen?!" "Junger Meister! Ich habe etwas über die junge Madam herausgefunden!" Ein gewisser junger Meister war verblüfft.

On the border of a kingdom named Caradel in a deep and great forest a man could be seen running, being chased by a group of men wearing armor as arrows flew in the air. One striking true to its target striking the man in the shoulder nevertheless the man continued running. The man named Baranor, a young man who had orange eyes black hair and tanned skin with a slight scruffy beard was running for his life while thinking to himself. 'How did this happen?!' Baranor running out of air feeling exhausted, and the blood flowing from his shoulder running down his back mixing with his sweat, Baranor stared in front of him only to see a drop off nearly 100 meters in front of him. The men behind him also seemed to notice that Baranor was running out of time, as nearly every single one of them let out a grin, as they approached the edge Baranor slowed to a halt, as did the men behind him. "Give up prince! Just accept what's to come, after all the throne is no longer yours to inherit!" Said the man leading the soldiers "I will never! Not after what you did to my men, not after what he did to my father!" Baranor replied "Hmph! So be it, I offer you life just for you to accept death" The man stated "Life? Life! you offer me death now or later, do you really think i'd be stupid enough to hand over the throne after witnessing your coupe against my father!" Baranor replied "Hmm, it seems your unwilling even till the end, Very well, Archer's! Fire!" The man commanded Baranor was now stuck between a rock and a hard place either jump off the cliff to a seemingly doomed fate or accept the fate that the man in front of him was offering. As he thought what he should do he heard the command the man spouted feeling the stress of the situation and his adrenalin nearly running out he decided. He'd rather die by his own hands than give the man in front of him that satisfaction! As he thought this he immediately took a step back falling to his doom. The man not expecting this looked rather confused only for his face to twist into a grin. 'Finally! Good riddance my dear prince!' The man said as he looked as the boy fell through the tough branches of the trees below Baranor looking up at one of the men that betrayed him thought to himself 'Is this how i really die? Well what can i say, i tried, i gave it my all.......' As Baranor was accepting his fate he thought back on his life only to be filled with rage 'No! I refuse to accept this laying down! Quintin I will come for you! I will come for all those who dare raise their sword to their king! No matter what! even if i have to accept a deal from the devi-' that was the last thought Baranor had before he hit the ground When Baranor hit the ground he didn't even feel the pain, just the shock, as it traveled through his body as his eyes slowly blurred he built up all his will to not pass out 'I refuse! I have to keep moving!' Baranor thought as he turned his body over back up When Baranor was starting to lose hope he started to hear faint whispers as he looked at the direction the whispers came he saw a cave, almost as if the whispers were drawing him in he forced himself to crawl and keep crawling, no matter what Baranor refused to stop crawling. Finally when Baranor arrived to where he heard the faint whispers they became louder almost screaming in his head as he saw it, a ring, resting on what looked to be an ancient place holder for it. Baranor grabbed the ring and lay on his back as he gathered his strength and said "My Fate! Is my own!" As he slid the ring on his finger. -------------------- -Author here Just a quick disclaimer! This novel is heavily inspired by lord of the rings if you couldn't tell also it's because i only ever saw one other story on a ring.
