Existence was divided into three realms. The Heavenly Realm. The Earthen Realm. The Infernal Realm. Below them, countless minor realms of all types existed, none able to match the might of any of the Three Fundamental realms. The Celestials led the Heavenly Realm, The Immortals led the Earthen Realm and Demons led the Infernal Realm while the Rulers controlled all the minor realms. Together, they formed The Myriad Unity and allowed peace to reign supreme. The mortals were allowed to cultivate and reach for the Heavens as a balance was installed between the Heaven and Earth, all according to the Heaven’s Will. And yet, among the billions of trillions of living beings within the Myriad Unity, one seemed unsatisfied. “They are lying to us.” This man went against all known truths and contradicted the very gods. “We are in a false world! Mere pawns used to study an outcome!” And so in search of freedom and truth, this man committed the ultimate taboo. He rebelled.

Battle Against Fate In the boundless expanse of the Primordial Heaven Continent, where mountains kissed the skies and rivers carried the whispers of legends, the strong reigned supreme while the weak struggled for survival. This was a land where cultivation dictated one’s destiny, and the pursuit of power defined the lives of countless souls. Among the towering sects, ancient clans, and hidden factions, tales of geniuses rising to prominence and changing the fate of nations were common. Yet, in the shadows of these grand stories lay the forgotten—those born without talent, shunned by their own kin, and left to carve their own paths through sheer will and determination. Seventeen years ago, in the esteemed Yan Clan of Ethereal Sky City, a child was born under a waning moon. Yan Zi, the youngest son of Elder Yan Hong, came into the world amidst hope but grew up under the weight of disappointment. Despite his diligent efforts, his meridians refused to awaken, branding him as "trash" in a world where strength was the ultimate currency. The Yan Clan, known for producing prodigious cultivators like Yan Ling and Yan Xingtian—shining stars of the younger generation—had no place for someone like Yan Zi. Yet, amidst the disdain and neglect, a burning desire flickered within him. A desire to prove that one’s fate was not bound by birth. Unknown to the world, Yan Zi’s journey was about to intertwine with forces far greater than himself. A forgotten legacy, an ancient secret buried in time, and a power that defied the natural laws of cultivation would soon set him on a path unlike any other. As storms brewed on the horizon and the continent moved toward chaos, Yan Zi’s story would rise from the ashes of humiliation and despair, challenging the very fabric of the heavens. In this tale of perseverance, betrayal, and destiny, one question loomed above all: Could a “trash” defy the heavens and carve his name into the annals of history? Thus began the battle that would test his faith, break his limits, and forge him into a legend. This is Battle Against Fate.

Lumian Light had always been a boy marked by sorrow. At the age of 12, his world crumbled. His mother was taken from him, and his father abandoned him, leaving behind only the shards of trauma. **December 24, 2222** Lumian found himself growing up in the care of the government federation, a nameless face among countless others. Betrayal came early in life—his only girlfriend played with his heart, discarding him like a passing joke. **December 20, 2227** Life only grew more miserable. On the night of his school’s farewell ceremony, Lumian became the laughingstock of his peers—a disgrace in the eyes of everyone he knew. **January 4, 2228** Broken and hopeless, Lumian had given up on everything. Yet, in the darkness of his despair, a faint memory of his mother’s voice echoed in his mind. Before parting, she had whispered a cryptic last wish: *"Go to the caves of Mt. Atlantas. You will find a wooden house. Save the hanging woman."* It had been six years since that day. The date she had given him—**January 17, 2228**—was now here. Could this journey change his life? Could he rise above his pain and find strength? Was there still a chance to reunite his shattered family? Only time—and courage—would reveal the answers.

Thrown into the world of her favorite novel, The Crown's Shadow, a modern girl wakes up as Lady Anastasia Valemont, the infamous villainess doomed to a tragic end. Determined to rewrite her destiny, she must navigate shifting alliances, a treacherous family dynamic, and a fiancé whose sudden warmth leaves her questioning everything.

“Say you’ll do it.” He choked out, his hands white-knuckling the collar of her night dress. “Promise me.” In that moment Valeria looked at the man in front of her for who he was: the man who, upon his father’s orders, pillaged her country; murdered all disenters; executed her family; manipulated her into signing a marriage pact to save her cousins; instated a military occupation; dragged her to this Mother-forsaken country to make her a spectacle;  and forced her into a marriage she did not want. And yet his worst crime was being a man. Had he been a monster perhaps she wouldn’t have felt sympathy, perhaps she would have laughed in his face while his mother’s blood was still wet on his skin. Mother, perhaps it would have better is she was as apathetic to the world like Elisa, but she was not.  Elisa had been right all along, she gave her energy to people that weren’t deserving of it and some day it would be her undoing. It wouldn’t matter in the end, she had nothing left to give. “Fine.” She breathed. “Say that you will. Say it.” Valeria reached forward and grabbed his jaw to force his eyes to hers. His normally crystalline blue were red rimmed, and his pupils were blown wide- unfocused.  “I will make you emperor.”

He looked into my eyes, his hand around my waist pulling me closer. "I need you to keep this a secret." He whispered his lips so close to mine, almost touching as he spoke to me. "I will," He punctuated my statement with a sweet kiss to the lips which came as surprise so much so that I pulled back from him. "On one condition though, we get to do this date thing again." I whispered back looking into his eyes wanting to see deeper than he was letting me. "Date is a strong word." He whispered back with a small laugh rumbling at the back of his throat. His words stung but I did not let it show instead I smiled at him bring my fingers up to touch his beard to distract myself from the sting. "What's the right word," I asked planting a small kiss on his lips. "A meet up." *** She knew she was the least to him yet she let herself get sucked into his life. A married man, happy with his family and beautiful kids and yet she could not stop herself from falling in love with him. To her, he was a sweet distraction from her routine boring life, some adventure, some love, something new to love on yet she knew it wasn't all mutual. The deal was too good and she drank of it, like the sweet poison it was.

In the beginning of time, a point not bound by concepts such as space and time, a being stood. He was fettered by neither space nor time as they were nothing but a thought away for him. Feeling bored at the lackluster appearance that was the void, he created a sword out nothing and slashed. With each slash, profound meaning of all known laws were evoked and galaxies were born. In each galaxy, billions of stars came into existence and around these stars floated tens of large planetary bodies. Three Thousand slashes later, this being felt he had made the void more beautiful, but after a while, he felt it was still lackluster. Why this was so, he had no idea. Suddenly, he was struck by a thought. "Why don't I create beings that will facilitate the evolution of this great Universe?" And From him, came the many Celestial Bodies. These beings were the embodiments of The Supreme laws from which all other laws were born. Still, this being found them to be singular. Hence he decided to create a less powerful species with the potential to grow and reach the point he was standing, and from then, the human race were born. This being passed on his knowledge to these Celestial Beings and tasked them with the Divine Task of creating the Ten Thousand living beings that are known in this day and age. ... In a Library, a young boy looking not more than nine years old read from a parchment. "What an interesting person." He muttered to himself. "I wonder if what is written here is true. To be able to create all that is know throughout the Universe. To be unfettered by space and time, life and death. What an admirable position he must have stood in." This young man had nothing but praise for this being as he festered the thought of one day reaching such height. Discord Link: https://discord.gg/jrJBVc7u
