Raised by a father who drowns his grief in silence, Arwyn aches to close the chasm between them. Every sketch he creates pushes him to a world called Terra Incognita, where countless of other artist's sketches bleed into reality. But, There were others that were present in this world. Kingdoms, landscapes, allies, friends, discovery. He meets a man, a living sketch who claims to know the truth about his mother’s death. Together, they unravel secrets his family buried. And so, Arwyn must choose: Become the weapon his enemies fear, or hold onto the boy his mother loved. In a world where imagination shapes reality, the greatest danger isn’t losing his life. It’s losing himself.

His life as a pragmatic Swiss engineer met a definitive end, only for awareness to dawn again beneath the borrowed skies of a Xianxia world. He awoke trapped in the body of Chen Yi, a young master burdened by unfamiliar customs and the encroaching memories of a life not his own. Before he could fully grasp this impossible reality, a strange interface materialized before him—a system powered by the world's spiritual energy: Spirit Stones. Driven by a chilling curiosity born from the shock of transition, he activated it. The cost: one Spirit Stone. The result: a horrifyingly visceral simulation of his new family's impending doom – a wedding feast destined to become a bloodbath, culminating in his own brutal, simulated demise. Armed with this terrifying foresight and governed by the cold calculus of survival inherited from his past life, he made his choice. Heroism held no appeal; saving strangers bound only by phantom memories was illogical. Survival was paramount. Taking only the simulation's grim memories as his reward, he ruthlessly abandoned the doomed Chen Mansion, fleeing to a hidden grotto revealed during his simulated escape. Here, in the damp darkness, a new strategy takes shape. The system offers knowledge, experience, even items pulled from simulated timelines, all for a cost intrinsically tied to his cultivation realm. The path becomes chillingly clear: remain a mere mortal, keep the simulation cost minimal, and exploit this reality-bending power from the unbreachable safety of stone walls. While the world outside hurtles towards inevitable chaos, he will cultivate knowledge through infinite simulated lives, mastering theories of power and immortality, surviving on scavenged scraps pulled from virtual pasts. His sanctuary is a grotto; his cultivation ground, the endless, recursive possibilities of the simulation. Let others chase tangible power across the lands; he will build his foundation unseen, cycle by cycle, until the cost of godhood itself becomes affordable.

Into the shadows of the dream..

crystal P.o.v. I've been suffering for as long as I can remember. My stepmother and stepsisters have made my life a living hell, constantly belittling me and making me feel worthless. But I've always held onto one thing - my dreams. Dreams of a better life, of a loving family, and of a man who would love me for who I am. One day, I decided I'd had enough. I ran away from home, into the woods, with no destination in mind. That's when I encountered a vampire, perched on a tree, looking for his next meal. He chased me, and I ran as fast as I could. But I was no match for his supernatural speed. Just as he was about to catch me, a mysterious figure appeared out of nowhere, fighting off the vampire and saving my life. I fainted, exhausted and scared. When I woke up, I found myself in a small cottage, being tended to by a young boy. He told me that I was safe, that my protector had brought me here to keep me safe. Luca, was determined to make me his.... He pursued me relentlessly, despite my protests. And I found myself torn between my love and my dreams . As I navigated this complicated web of emotions, I began to uncover secrets about my past. Secrets that my father had kept hidden from me. Secrets that would change my life forever. And then, I found the letter. The letter that my father had written to me before he died. The letter that would reveal the truth about who I really was.
