The Plague Of Madness Primal

The Tales of Madness

A pantheon of beings known as Kami or Gods rules the planet of Taria. The Universe created the original two itself when it first made the planet. Others came along as mortals were made and populated once the mortals believed in something so strongly. Then there was one who was a mortal. Kentaro stood up to Kenichi, and the people believed in so much not only did he win, but he was welcomed into the Heavens as a Kami. Then slowly, how he descended. The Tales of Madness consists of three individual tales. Each with their own main characters in the forefront as we follow the descent into madness. Volume One: Tale of a Sumotori On Taria sumo is an ancient sport devoted to a man who stood up to the War Kami Kenichi and won. He fought to decide not only the fate of his town, or the island his town was on, but the entire Sasuke Empire. Now there’s an entire martial art and sport devoted to how the man defeated and became a Kami himself. Hiroshi is a young boy born to an artisan father with a deep love and respect for the traditional sport and ritual of Sumo. After his father’s death, he chases his father’s dream of him becoming not only a sumotori, but a full rikishi. When he’s recruited into the fabled beya of Hajima under the retired Yokozuna Kenjiro, who seems to be slowly losing his grip on reality, has he got himself into something over his head? Volume Two: Tale of the Village Protector A once strong and powerful cultivator and teacher retires. All he desires is peace with his wife, and to give her a child for them to raise. They reside in a small village where he's elected as the village protector. Everything is going well in their lives, until a mysterious oracle shows up to their village with a cryptic warning that the Kami, the gods of the world, are up to no good. Silas wakes up, his town destroyed, and his power gone. The apprentice he was coerced to have and his wife, also gone. He has to uncover a plot by a rogue kami while discovering why he is powerless while he tries to find out what happened to his wife. Volume Three: Tale of a Beggar A cultivator but also a homeless beggar is sent to a western continent to help his master find a key that can help his Master's old friend. Once in the west he finds resistance to learning about different gods, but finds the god the westerners worship isn't so different from the Kami. They all look the same in the pictures they've painted. Everything changes when the town he's been staying is overrun by barbarians. They aren't cultivators, not really, they have an animalistic spirit and are very powerful in their own right. He's taken in as by the horde and while there he learns of an ancient relic that the lords of Demon have. The thing is, he's not the only one who knows about it. He has competition, a sect from the East is coming and is ready to make dark deals to get the treasure.

Inevitable Equilibrium - Part 1: Primal Instincts

A typical isekai plot turns not so typical as the reality of the situation slowly sets in for the protagonist. War, slaves, women, marriage, children, vile villains, unexpected allies, and more. His actions may not only cost the populace their lives, but will also affect their livelihoods and beliefs. It's not all easy going, and not all enemies are on the opposite side. This is just some of what awaits the protagonist in part 1 of this of this multipart-multiversal storyline. Little did he know that his quest to defeat the Demon King and save this one single abnormal world was far more important than he ever thought it could be. It would eventually lead the protagonist to the origin of everything and anything that makes up reality. Everything must be balanced, including his abnormal existence. Equilibrium is...inevitable. -comments- I had a few goals for writing this story. Create a multiverse that almost any anime/manga/light novel could exist within and co-exist with others simultaneously. To also make the strongest character ever, giving a proper fundamental reason why they are, not just saying they're overpowered. This is the focus of the later parts, so I get all the "romance" and world building out of the way in the first 2 parts (loose plan). The rest of the parts focusing on the multiverse and crucial battles. If you think the protagonist is overpowered at the start...you have no idea. -the picture is AI generated and not an accurate reflection of the character. -I am a fulltime worker who writes irregularly and slowly (physical typing speed). I can also mull over one sentence for 30min. -parts 1 and 2 are a long and slow, things rapidly picking up after that. -nudity is depicted, but it is not of the 'ecchi' genre. Intercourse happens but is not detailed. -this is a war stricken world, so unsavory things happen. Please keep that in mind for things unsaid but implied. I try to keep things as lighthearted as possible while trying to keep it as realistic as possible. -I wrote this as if watching it in my head, which influenced the writing style. Also, when reading novels, if there are multiple characters, I sometimes find it hard to distinguish who's talking as I can see multiple characters wanting to say what was written. I decided to always make it clear who's talking, so it turned into a book/anime hybrid. -any feedback, including typos, are much appreciated. Upload Schedule: 1st of every month (wish I had time to do it more frequently, but alas, responsibilities. I am not writing to become an author, but only for myself and my own mental health. If the opportunity presented itself, sure, why not? However, I don't have the luxury to pursue that career. I have immense respect for those who can pursue it by overcoming the obstacles. I am a coward who can't justify the risks for pursuing something I don't have a diehard passion for. I only thought of stories for myself for many years, but I found myself forgetting parts of my stories. That's why I decided to write them down and record them online, leaving a piece of me out there for hopefully eternity. My goal is not short-term, but very long-term. I wish for someone, someday long after I'm gone, to read my work and think to themself "this guy has some good ideas". Just the thought of that makes me content. I hope you understand that I would only pursue a career in this if my work profoundly resonated with people so much that it basically forced me to be an author. I'm sincerely apologise to anyone reading it in its earl days and wishes for more confident).
