Last Night In Twisted River A

An Imperial Scholar by day. An assassin by night. The World of Cultivation has changed. Elemental Mancers. Flux Mancers. Spirit Mancers. Soul Mancers. Raining down fire and splitting oceans. Destroying mountains with a single stomp and calming skies with a glance. Controlling the tides of Karma, while wielding the souls of others like a puppeteer tugging on the Lines of Fate. The most mysterious of them all were Spirit Mancers, a truth that Theron was more than intimately familiar with. Due to one's Tribulation, his life was turned upside down. His family, his rage, his somber sadness becoming nothing more than Bad Karma's fuel for a madman. He was once a gentle young man, a non-combative Water Mancer who wanted nothing more than to read his novels to the sound of the rain and one day become an Imperial Scholar. But now... Everything had changed. He donned a cloak in the silent night as the clouds above gathered. Pulling its hood over his chilling blue eyes, he stalked off into the darkness. The first droplets fell. He would become the nightmare of his enemies, the blade hidden in the shadows of Heaven's tears. The River of the Night.

The action takes place in 2119-2120. Since 2113, a protracted nuclear war has been going on between the Asian and Western Blocs. The war was preceded by the "Pre-War" for Indonesia, which began in 2107. The historical period of the Pre-War & War has already formed an entire generation. The "war process", as it is called, has little in common with ideas about a global Armageddon. The economy of the Western Nations is privatized by two superholdings - "constellations", which are parts of a single whole and do not compete. Over the years of the War, the ruling circles of different levels have achieved goals that were not initially set. This is the write-off of the US national debt, which paid for the construction of the global defense of the West, the implicit occupation by the US of its allies, partial privatization of the US itself by constellations. In the Asian Bloc, the picture is similar. Between the Blocks there is a channel for concluding and observing shadow "anti-apocalyptic" agreements - the "seventh headquarters". This is a nuclear-powered superplane-headquarters constantly flying over Antarctica. By the end of the 2110s, a peaceful settlement of the "Only War" is no longer being considered. Instead, the option of "Conversion of the Military Process" is being actively developed - minimizing military actions on the fronts, denuclearizing the War and "pushing" military actions into "high space orbits". The top of the constellations and the billionaire technocrat Bandon the Third in particular are interested in such a scenario. The "converted" War will open up freedom of action to form a new society, industry, morality and the exit of a selected part of humanity to the development of other planets. The moral values of the top of the constellations and Bandon are quite dubious. A certain crisis event, the details of which were determined later, was chosen as the impetus for launching "Conversion" several years earlier. An important element of this scenario is a certain personality - the leader of the rebels who seize a nuclear base, an aircraft carrier, etc. The role of the personality is doubly important due to the fact that the crisis event must develop on display, "in front of the cameras", to the whole world. The question of the motivation of such a personality is complicated by the fact that most candidates for this role will inevitably see such an enterprise as risky and having an outcome that is unpredictable for them. The problem is solved by preparing an agent with a processed consciousness - a fragment of memory and life that contains preparation, moral pumping and technical training for such an agent is hidden, erased. One of these sleeper agents, Andrei Zavirdyaev, lives the life of an ordinary CSCE employee (the old-new name of the OSCE). The crisis event is determined - it must be the hijacking of a new shuttle. Zavirdyaev, who completed his "sleeper agent course" in 2113, regularly undergoes a "technical inspection" - during trips abroad, he is received by secret services, partially "de-mothballed" by his memory, checked and "updated". During the "update" in 2120, he is told that he is to hijack a shuttle. He does not need to control the vehicle and mission - he is a supermedia "monkey with a grenade". The plan starts successfully, the media machine successfully carries out the stages of the program developed by the constellations. Another character is an extraterrestrial life form that looks like a 35-year-old northern European woman. This is Haldoris Landskricht. She is an "avatar" of the mind of a black hole located in one of the arms of the galaxy. Despite all the exoticism, the psychological appearance of her personality is quite human. Living among people, possessing a number of superhuman abilities, she avoids directly and openly influencing the historical process, not wanting to make things worse. Haldoris Landskricht does not agree with the plans of the constellations…

This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition and world building, everything kicks into gear after the turning point in the latter half of Volume 1, and especially Volume 2, where the tone of the novel shifts. So, I hope you stick with it and enjoy the wild ride! I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience. Public Spotify playlist for Volume 1 is under the name: TLAR - Book 1 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/07czy216X1xB6F1mfRtl31?si=3cff937234e64589 Volume 2 playlist: TLAR - Book 2 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7dxCyfh3i4EV2SaEj0iVZs?si=9636c983657c475d This is rated 'No one under 17 permitted' for (very) mature themes, including drug use, assault, discrimination against same sex couples, language, violence etc. Please note that no storyline is chosen for shock value, and most are taken from personal experience, and hopefully handled with the care, respect and sensitivity they deserve. Disclaimers are added against any chapter that may cause distress. The main couple is a man and woman but there are also LGBTQ+ characters and relationships spread throughout, hope you enjoy!

Fate knows that timid people won't amuse her, so she serves them plain death as a conclusion. Being a philosophy student, the sixteen year old Kanito Aramishi had a humble yet principled personality. But his dreams were rather jejune : living a decent and respectful life. If there was something he hated the most, it was standing out. He hated to become the centre of attention. However one day, his biggest fear came true, a life-changing event uprooted him from his sweet life of normalcy. Returning home one night from his high school's farewell party, Kanito finds himself struck in an array of supernatural events. He is stabbed in the chest by a mysterious man and as he is about to die, he sees ferrocious, otherworldly creatures appear out of countless red portals. "Please God, give me refuge in Heaven." is what he ponders on the brink of his death, but then, a saviour descends down from the skies who whisks him away to a different world. In this new world, Kanito finds out that a mysterious race called the "demons" have waged a war against possibly every life form in existence. He learns that the destruction of his world was not merely an apocalyptic event but a planned invasion by this race. This single event landed the first blow to the strong foundations of his morality. The night he bid farewell to his school became the night he bid farewell to his own world. He accquired the status of a refugee, a stain that he will carry forever. What is this growing cruelty inside? Is violence, hatred and horror justified in a cruel world? What will Kanito choose – the newfound cruelty or the long-cherished empathy? Will he stick to his beliefs or will he give them all an egregious definition? Those will answered as the march of time continues revealing the refugee's and eventually the world's true purpose.

[VT] She sits there, bare feet crossed, a cigarette loosely held between her slender fingers. Wisps of silver smoke curl lazily around her, dancing to an unseen rhythm. Amber eyes glimmer with amusement as she smirks, gaze piercing through the very pages you are reading. "Do you think this is just a story? You're wrong. This is a game. And me? I'm just a spectator, watching how interesting it becomes." Another voice cuts through her musings. Author: "Aren’t you going to give them a warning?" The Fox tilts her head, lips curling into an amused smile. "The only warning I have for them? They'll lose money. Because this story is just that good."

Here, dreams, memories, and fate itself are bound by forces beyond comprehension.

In the distant realm of Shadowfell, a land of ancient harmony between humans and werewolves, the Shadowfell Kingdom flourished under the wise rule of human King Maric and the cunning Alpha King Wulfric Lupercus. Wulfric Lupercus, alongside his Luna Queen Nyla, had four children: Thane the Cunning, Boris the Coward, Dantina, and Remi the Cursed, the youngest and most troubled of the brood. Remi's birth was marred by a deformity and frail health, condemning her to a life of suffering and rejection. Remi's family, including her parents and siblings, treated her with cruelty and disdain, eager to be rid of the ailing child. Her existence was a constant reminder of shame and weakness, leaving her vulnerable to the whims of those who sought to exploit her. The arrival of Kato the Ruthless, a rebel Alpha King determined to usurp Wulfric's throne and wage war against King Maric, presented an opportunity for Wulfric to sacrifice his unwanted daughter. In a desperate bid to forge a peace treaty, Wulfric offered Remi to Kato as a pawn, forcing her into a life of servitude and submission. Yet, Remi's true nature remained a closely guarded secret, hidden even from herself. The only clue to her mysterious past lay in an ugly iron ring bearing the name 'Odessa', given to her by Boris the Coward before Kato dragged her away to an uncertain fate. As Remi navigated her new life under Kato's rule, she began to unravel the mysteries surrounding her past. Sidestepped by her new Alpha, Remi discovered a shocking truth: her hunchback was not a birth defect, but a curse. This revelation marks the beginning of Remi's transformation, as she sheds her weaknesses and depression to forge a new path. As Remi's eyes unlocked the secrets of her past, the shadows that had shrouded her existence began to recede, it is revealed that she is not just a Tribrid wolf, but the Lost of the Last Moon King. The cursed child, once discarded and forgotten, rises to reclaim her rightful place among the wolves. With the weight of her true identity and her power settling upon her shoulders. Kato the Ruthless, begings to fall in love with Remi. But she is too drenched in her quest for revenge against the Lupercus family, who had stolen her heritage and buried it under curses and lies, ready to unleash a fury that would shake the very foundations of Shadowfell and forever alter the course of her destiny. *** "This is my offering to you." Wulfric said. Kato scoffed, disgusted, looking at the young, dead-faced girl in chains, hunching. "Is this some sort of joke? A HUNCHBACK GIRL? What am I going to do with her? Can I even hump her? This is not a gift, this is an insult!" Kato fumed. "She is still a princess, no matter how awkward she might look. She is still my daughter, and i am giving her to you as a gift because she is just as precious to me. " Wulfric said, her brothers and sister behind him snickered. "Even better," Thane began. "She is untouched, chaste. A virgin." "Of course she is. Who would touch her? She looks wretched and disgusting." Kato said through clenched teeth. "Careful now!" Dantina scolded. "She is still my father's daughter. You will not disrespect him this way. " Dantina said. "Take her. Fuck her, sell her, skin her, and make her your slave—any type of slave. I don't care. But just take her; she is yours now, Alpha Kato. The Hunchback princess of the Lupercus Pack is yours. And thus, our friendship." Wulfric smiled. Kato looked at her one last time; she dared not raise her eyes to meet him. ‘Cursed thing’, he thought. “Carl, bring her along.” Kato signalled to his beta. “Father! Father!!" Remi’s voice suddenly burst through. “Please, please. Don’t do this to me.” She sobbed. “Please, da.” But they all just stared at her with smiles.

They called me an abomination. A wolf in sheep's clothing.... A witch gone mad.... But the truth was far more complicated. I was both, and something more. My blood, a potent mixture of witch and werewolf, surged through my veins, a power that terrified and enticed them all. Now, caught between two factions will never let each other have peace, I must choose: succumb to being hunted by both Witches and werewolves, or fight for a future where witches and werewolves can coexist because that's the only way I can get what I want; which is to have a world where anyone else like me don't have to always look over their shoulders. I must achieve that goal, even if it means sacrificing everything, including myself.
