Zoro Finds New Sword

(SPOILER ALERT!!!!:) In a realm crushed under the iron fist of the ruthless tyrant Dextin, hope flickers like a dying ember. The story explodes in a moment of shocking defiance when the ancient, sentient Red Katana chooses Dran, a battle-scarred elite soldier, as its wielder. This isn't some destined hero; Dran is a man tormented by personal tragedy, his wife brutally murdered by Dextin himself. His desperate whisper—"Why the hell did you choose me?"—sets the stage for a rebellion born not of prophecy, but of raw, agonizing pain and a thirst for vengeance. The palace becomes a battleground of wills and blades. Dran's initial, impulsive strike against Dextin ignites an inferno, both literally and figuratively, as the palace burns and loyalties shift. Witnessing Dran's unyielding spirit, the oppressed elite soldiers, led by the steadfast Aingo, finally find their courage, abandoning their tyrant. While Dran faces Dextin in a brutal, no-holds-barred duel, Aingo orchestrates a desperate prison break, freeing countless villagers and sending Neon to protect Dran's young son, Rider. The climax is a devastating, fiery dance of death between Dran and Dextin, each fueled by a personal, consuming hatred. Despite suffering grievous wounds, Dran unleashes the Red Katana's full, unbridled power in a final, sacrificial attack. Though he falls, his dying wish to Aingo—to raise Rider as a warrior and the future wielder of the Red Katana—cements a new legacy. The Red Katana, now dormant but bound to the true Sword Master, awaits its next champion. Seventeen years later, the echoes of Dran's sacrifice linger, poised to awaken a new dawn for a land still yearning for true freedom.

Everyone saw Salim as perfect flawless, untouchable, a man who made the impossible seem effortless. To Lian, he wasn’t just admired he was her light in a world that never seemed to stop falling apart. Born into poverty, Lian knew struggle better than comfort. Her family had nothing, and every small win came through relentless effort. Her father, tired and bitter, walked out on them. Her mother, Quinn, was no savior either cold, selfish, and drowning in her own twisted sense of importance. Quinn's lies and theft finally caught up with her, landing her behind bars and leaving Lian and her younger brother Louis to pick up the shattered pieces. Lian often wondered what went wrong. Why was her family so broken? Why was survival their only reality? She hated being poor. Hated being invisible. And so, she made a vow she would never become like them. She would rise, no matter what it took. But when the light you chase burns too bright, will it save you or blind you?

When temperamental drug dealer Baek Tae-hyun crosses paths with Lee Ji-hoon, the privileged child of a wealthy doctor, his world spirals into chaos. A mysterious gift from a stranger sets off a dangerous game—one that could cost Baek everything, including his heart.

Kalypso "Kali" Brunn was searching. He was trying to find someone he once knew well, someone he'd lost without even realizing. Kali needed the man who could wholeheartedly love himself and the company of others yet live happily, even alone. That someone wouldn't need another leading their life, completely shaping every thought he had, each action he performed, and the emotions he'd felt. He simply had to see that man's lost smile once more, a smile so true and pure, and he believed the Black Manor was the best place to look. It was the perfect home for Kali to find himself again. A peaceful, private, and honest(deceptively so) abode for him to relax and heal in. It seemingly had the most perfect conditions. The only downside of the new arrangement would be that he's yet to shake off his loneliness. He's determined to get along with his new housemates, but it's proven to be hard, especially as half of them blatantly ignore him and the other half downright hate his mere presence. But who's to say the future won't change? Perhaps his clumsy, self-deprecating ways will finally garner him some much-needed attention. Maybe they'll see just how much he needs someone to stand by him, even if he happens to claim otherwise for pride's sake... Or suppose they could continue to ignore him until he stays forever stuck in his regrettable past. Kali doesn't want to think about the 'scumbag' he ran away from or the friends that hurt him. They didn't deserve his tears any more than he deserved the emotional turmoil he'd suffered through.

The Order of Swords By Justin_Kragten In a world where peace among humans and mythical races seems eternal, darkness quietly stirs beneath the surface. The year is 1238, and while kingdoms flourish and alliances strengthen, ancient forces long thought forgotten are awakening. Achlys, a boy marked by a strange, unexplainable sigil on his face, has always felt like an outsider. When a hidden truth shatters the fragile harmony of his world, he is thrust into a destiny larger than himself — a destiny that could either preserve the light or plunge the world into endless shadow. As Achlys journeys through forgotten lands, clashes with secret orders, and unlocks powers he never knew he possessed, he learns that not all battles are fought with swords alone — and that sometimes, the greatest enemies lie within. Filled with epic battles, magical mysteries, daring friendships, and unexpected romance, The Order of Swords is a sweeping fantasy adventure about fate, freedom, and the thin line between light and darkness.

The world was saved once—by a man with no name. Illio, the greatest swordsman to ever live, gave everything to seal away the Demon King. His name was erased, his body devoured by divine fire, and his soul bound as the lock to an eternal prison. The world endured, kingdoms rose, peace bloomed. But peace is borrowed, not earned. Centuries later, shadows stir. The seal pulses. Whispers of rot return to the edges of the map. Faint tremors mark the places Illio once walked. And in a quiet village far from the histories of war, a boy is born beneath a red moon—bearing no memories, but an instinctive hatred of the dark. He is not Illio. Not yet. But the sword remembers. And fate never forgets a sacrifice. As new powers rise and ancient evils slouch toward rebirth, the world must decide whether to place its hope once more in the hands of a single soul—one cursed to fight again and again, until peace is no longer a reprieve, but a promise kept.

Me tocó vivir una infancia horrible, indignante y abusiva por partes de mis tíos y tutores legales, por lo cual en aquel punto de quiebre arremetí contra mi primo en un enfrentamiento y el colapso había nublado mi juicio por completo, por lo cual mi vida había acabado con un final horrible, inhumano pero a la vez tan pacífico y agradable. Pero... Solo deseaba ser feliz, jamás tuve algo así, es más. ¡Jamás tuve una vida en realidad! Mi rutina se basaba en insultos, dolor y sangre, abuso, dolor y sangre, todo eso día tras día, pero ahora... Ahora puedo empezar de nuevo. Ahora puedo empezar de cero.

Yeri never asked for a life like this. Quiet and gentle, she was just trying to survive the cruelty of Soojin — a woman who treated her like a pawn in a game of power. In a mansion full of lies, Yeri learned how to stay invisible, how to carry pain with grace. Until one night, during a lavish party, everything changed. When Yunjun — the cold, distant mafia heir — saw someone lay a hand on her, something in him snapped. What started as protection soon cracked open the walls he’d spent years building. But falling in love wasn't simple. Yunjun wasn’t just a man with secrets—he was a man at war with himself. Their fragile bond was tested at every turn: Soojin’s jealousy spiraled into violence, leaving Yeri broken and bruised in a hospital bed. Just as healing began, Yunjun’s past came crashing in, and Yeri was ripped away—kidnapped and tortured by Jack, his ruthless enemy. But Yeri wasn’t just a victim. She was a fighter. And even in the darkest moments, she held on—to hope, to love, to the belief that someone would come for her. Yunjun did. Fueled by rage, guilt, and a love he could no longer ignore, he brought Jack to his knees. But revenge couldn’t erase the scars. The real battle was learning how to be there for Yeri—not as a protector, but as a partner. Now, with blood behind them and healing ahead, Yeri and Yunjun stand not as broken people—but as two souls who chose each other in the aftermath. Their story isn’t perfect. It’s *real.*

Since the Great Fracture and the partial destruction of the Moon, Earth has become nothing more than a wasteland, devoured by corruption. An unknown gigantic sword, emerging from the infinitely distant reaches of the universe, pierced the Unnameable, impaling it upon the star of dreams. Now, humanity lives in a waking nightmare, struggling to survive in a world where Umbra and Lumen wage an endless battle. Cities are built around sacred sites, where Lumen, the only source of purification, is wielded to repel the creeping darkness. But Umbra, with its abominations born of the shadows, relentlessly threatens what remains of humanity. Gaël is stained by this darkness. Umbra flows within him, eating away at his body and mind, and each time he draws upon this forbidden power, he edges closer to madness. He knows his fate is sealed, that his chances of surviving what he is becoming are slim. But rather than cower in fear, he chooses another path. He wants to follow in the footsteps of the Brothers of the Sword. Where the chosen of Lumen purify, the Brothers cut and annihilate. Where the cities hide behind the light, they plunge into the darkness. Feared, revered, and shrouded in legend, these warriors are, for most, nothing more than children’s tales. Gaël knows his life will be short. So before he vanishes, he wants to uncover the truth behind these fables, and if possible, live a brief, glorious saga, cutting down a few abominations along the way.
