The Last Broadcast

In the remote, fog-shrouded town of Millhaven, superstition holds sway, and silence is salvation. Embarrassed radio DJ Jack Mercer is back in his hometown in one final attempt at salvaging his career, going live on a Halloween broadcast to reveal the town's darkest tale: the Revenant, a ghost said to take one soul every decade. But Millhaven's inhabitants—tightly lipped and haunted by centuries of guilt—won't talk about the curse, forcing Jack to rummage through decaying archives and deserted buildings for clues. When he discovers a decades-old diary of Evelyn Carter, a woman who disappeared while searching for the Revenant, Jack learns a chilling truth: the villagers' forebears summoned the creature, sacrificing lives for temporary peace. Jack knows the Revenant is no legend as his broadcast plans come apart—equipment breaking down, figures haunting the abandoned town hall. It's alive. And it's hungry. Halloween night, Jack's live broadcast, and the town's suppressed transgressions boil over. The listeners are overwhelmed by shrieked voices through static images of their worst regrets. Cornered in the hall with the Revenant's claws around his throat, Jack is presented with a terrible decision: die to shatter the cycle or escape, dooming Millhaven to perpetual suffering. But the Revenant has an endless hunger, and Jack's broadcast—a twisted, repeating scream—could have released the curse into the world. A terrifying investigation of guilt, complicity, and the price of truth, The Last Broadcast poses the question: What if the things we bury never die? And what if the horror we dread most is the horror we've already become?

The Sun's Last Requiem

In a world on the brink of eternal twilight, the sun is dying. The kingdom of Aurelion, once bathed in the warmth of the sun, is now fractured into floating islands, each struggling to survive as the light fades. The Sunpriests, an ancient order of powerful mages, have controlled the fading sun’s power for centuries, manipulating its death to preserve their immortality. But when the reincarnated Sungod, Lira, a young orphan, discovers her true identity, everything changes. Lira learns that she is the reborn essence of the ancient god who once brought light to the world. But as she regains the memories of her past lives, she realizes the truth—her godly essence is the key to either saving or destroying the world. The Sunpriests, fearing the return of the Sungod, will stop at nothing to control her. Meanwhile, a mysterious and shadowy figure named Aiden, a fragment of the dying god, seeks to merge with her to restore the divine power of the sun at any cost. As Lira journeys through the shattered realms, uncovering secrets from her past lives and fighting off enemies both seen and unseen, she is faced with an agonizing choice. To stop the sun’s death, she must kill the very god that gave her life. But doing so will unravel the fabric of reality, sending the world into complete darkness. Yet, to let the god return would mean the destruction of everything she holds dear. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Lira must navigate a web of political intrigue, betrayal, and the weight of her own destiny. She will face the ultimate question: Does she sacrifice herself and the world for the sake of preserving the light, or does she embrace the darkness to bring about a new beginning?

The Last Offering

The Last Offering By Zanbaq Alma "There is no greater sacrifice than the one made in love. But love alone cannot stop the abyss from hungering." For centuries, the city of Ashkar has upheld a chilling tradition the centennial offering. Every hundred years, one life is chosen to descend into the abyss, a sacrifice meant to appease the ancient darkness lurking below. When seventeen-year-old Seraphine’s beloved younger brother is selected, she refuses to accept his fate. Driven by love and defiance, she takes his place, willingly stepping into the unknown. But the abyss is not what the council claimed it to be. Beneath the city lies a cursed labyrinth where past offerings linger some as whispers in the dark, others as monstrous creatures barely clinging to humanity. At the heart of it all is the Ancient One, a being that was once human, now corrupted by centuries of sacrifice and greed. As Seraphine navigates the abyss’s horrors, she uncovers long-buried secrets: the truth behind the ritual, the city’s bloodstained past, and a prophecy that ties her fate to the darkness itself. With the help of Aric, a scarred survivor of the last offering, and Kael, a rogue cultist seeking redemption, she must challenge the cycle of sacrifice before she, too, is consumed. But the abyss changes those who enter it. And as the darkness seeps into her soul, Seraphine must decide will she destroy the abyss, or become its last and greatest offering? A dark fantasy tale of sacrifice, corruption, and the fine line between monster and savior.
