Rime Keepsake

Crametout

Dans un monde où la magie et la technologie coexistent dans un équilibre fragile, les forces anciennes et nouvelles s'affrontent, menaçant de plonger le continent dans le chaos. Au Sud, la république de Rimes se dresse fièrement, bastion de savoir et de progrès. Centre des plus grandes découvertes technologiques et des arts magiques, elle rayonne sur le continent. Mais dans ses académies, les plus sages perçoivent un déséquilibre grandissant. Les arcanes, autrefois maîtrisées, deviennent instables. Les murmures de la magie se transforment en avertissements : l'ordre que les hommes ont bâti est sur le point de se fissurer. À l’Ouest, les royaumes barbares, embourbés dans des guerres intestines, continuent de s’entretuer, aveugles aux véritables dangers qui se profilent. Dans leurs forêts et montagnes, des forces anciennes, réveillées par le sang des batailles, se mettent en mouvement. Ce qui dort sous la terre commence à se réveiller, tandis que les seigneurs de guerre, trop occupés par leurs querelles, ignorent le sombre présage qui approche. À l’Est, les steppes infinies, royaume des cavaliers nomades, vibrent d’une magie ancienne. Les tribus, autrefois insaisissables, deviennent les témoins d’événements étranges. Des esprits oubliés arpentent de nouveau les plaines, et les légendes se matérialisent sous la lumière de la lune. Ces terres, longtemps indomptées, semblent répondre à un appel lointain, un pouvoir qui transcende le temps et les hommes. Mais c’est au-delà des mers que le véritable danger prend forme. L’Empire de Zorya, mystérieux et impitoyable, étend son emprise avec une précision implacable. Gouverné par l’impératrice Belle d’Aurore, une souveraine aussi crainte que vénérée, Zorya déploie ses immenses flottes vers l’Ouest, ses voiles noires annonçant la conquête. Cet empire insulaire, imprégné de traditions séculaires et armé d'une magie ancienne et de technologies redoutables, convoite désormais les richesses et le savoir de Rimes. Belle d’Aurore, dont la beauté et la cruauté sont légendaires, ne reculera devant rien pour étendre son pouvoir. Au Nord, la Vangoriak n'est plus qu'une cicatrice, une terre désolée où les guerres vampiriques ont laissé des marques indélébiles. Jadis théâtre de batailles apocalyptiques, elle est désormais un territoire maudit, hanté par les échos du passé. La menace qu’elle représentait s’est atténuée, mais ses ruines restent un rappel des jours sombres où le monde était au bord de l’extinction. Ses ombres, bien que silencieuses, continuent de peser sur l’esprit de ceux qui osent s'en approcher. Dans ce monde au bord du gouffre, un jeune prodige, Gilles Crametout, est destiné à jouer un rôle central. Héritier d'une lignée de mages légendaires, il possède un pouvoir brut capable de renverser des empires. Mais ce pouvoir, qu'il ne contrôle pas pleinement, le place dans la tourmente. Aux côtés de la redoutable magicienne Chione Stritodeli, il devra naviguer entre intrigues politiques, menaces surnaturelles et trahisons. Mais la plus grande menace pourrait bien être celle qui sommeille en lui. Alors que les spectres rôdent à la lisière de la Vangoriak et que les armées de Zorya approchent, Gilles et Chione se retrouvent au cœur d’un conflit qui pourrait sceller le destin du continent. La guerre, la magie et le destin s’entremêlent dans une bataille où les légendes d'hier se transforment en réalités terrifiantes. Dans ce monde crépusculaire, les forces en présence s'affrontent pour façonner l'avenir, mais il se pourrait bien que tout soit déjà perdu.

My Qi Keeps Resetting

The once lazy and complacent Michael has finally found something worth getting serious for. Gifted in gathering herbs, as long as it doesn't interfere with his midday nap. One fateful night Michael's world is turned upside down as he hurries home from the mountains after a day of picking herbs. His hometown village is engulfed in flames and laid to waste, his family members reduced to charred meat. Chasing revenge, Michael must overcome all obstacles and become an exalted cultivator to avenge his family. The only keepsakes remaining are an old pendant and dilapidated cultivation technique passed down from his ancestor. Michael's biggest problem on his road to revenge isn't lack of talent, nor lack of determination. "What the F***??, is this some kind of cruel joke?" "Where is my Qi???" His Qi keeps resetting. --------------- Taking a break for a little bit DISCLAIMER: This is my first contracted book with webnovel, and I am new to writing. In the beginning MC is a typical teenager, loud, childish, sometimes lazy, not taking things seriously, and sometimes haughty (even when he shouldn't be) etc. This may put some people off. However Michael eventually grows up, just like we all do. He's full of flaws and is not OP! at least in comparison to other novels. If you're looking for character development, I believe you'll find it here. I am also improving as a writer every day, so I apologise if anything is hard to read at the beginning. Thank you for reading and adding this to your collections, please feel free to comment on chapters and place your review. If you have any spare power stones please vote! Thanks, LeeroyCGNA

The Dragon's keepsake

Sometimes, God has chosen the right path for you, but you go against it... ~~ Isabel was a commoner living in the village of the kingdom of Valaraeth, a place where dragons roamed the skies, high and mighty. These untouchable heavenly beings could only be ridden by the royal family and nobles. "Is it not unfair?" she would muse, her pretty eyes shining with awe and enthusiasm whenever she saw a dragon flying over her village. She yearned to be with them, to touch them, and to ride across the beautiful world on their backs. Her dream came true when she discovered she was a royal—the youngest daughter of the King of Valaraeth. But every pretty dream came with a price, one she neglected to consider in her hopeful reverie. Taken to the palace, Isabel's life seemed perfect: beautiful dresses, elder royal siblings, and a loving queen mother. But the facade shattered when she learned the truth—their cruel and twisted personalities lay hidden beneath their beautiful masks. Every member of the royal family had a dragon bonded to them by blood in childhood. Her dragon was the youngest of the Emberstorm clan, an ancient lineage of fire dragons. Isabel was the first in a hundred centuries to be chosen by a fire dragon, sparking jealousy and hatred from everyone. ~~~ Excerpt: "I, Scorvius Drá Ashéncrest XII, Sovereign of Valaraeth, hereby sever all ties between the 6th Princess Isabel Drá Ashéncrest of Valaraeth and the esteemed lineage of Ashéncrest. Let it be known across our realm that she stands alone, stripped of her birthright, for she has committed an unforgivable sin—the slaying of her own dragon, the last dragon of the proud Emberstorm lineage." With solemn resolve, the king decreed her fate, yet Isabel remained unmoved. Her thoughts were consumed by the haunting memory of her dragon's final breath. She found herself thrust upon the platform of condemnation, judged in the unforgiving gaze of the assembled court, denied the chance to plead her case or offer explanation.
