After a bitter divorce, Ellie Brooks moves to the isolated town of Graven with her nine-year-old son, Joey, hoping to start fresh. But their new home, perched on the edge of the mysterious Silent Lake, offers little comfort. The townsfolk are cold and distant, their eyes shadowed by something more than mere suspicion. And then there’s the lake—its misty surface rippling with whispers that only Joey seems to hear. As Ellie struggles to fit into the town, Joey’s behavior grows increasingly strange. He’s drawn to the lake, speaking of a voice in the fog that calls to him, promising answers to questions he cannot yet articulate. Desperate to protect her son, Ellie begins to unravel Graven’s dark history. What she uncovers chills her to the bone: a century-old pact to feed the lake’s insatiable hunger, a cursed altar hidden deep within the mist, and a malevolent force that preys on the town’s fears and guilt. The fog begins to thicken, creeping through the streets and into their lives. The townspeople, terrified of breaking their pact, turn against Ellie and Joey, seeing them as the next sacrifices to the lake. Trapped in a town that has surrendered to its own nightmares, Ellie must confront the horrors of her past and the terrors in the mist to save her son—and herself.

Weaving supernatural terror with deeply human emotions, it explores how far we are willing to go to protect the ones we love—and what it costs to confront the monsters both outside and within.

Recently, there have been many posts from fellow members about ghost stories. However, most of them are either secondhand accounts or vague, hazy encounters. I’ve thought long and hard about this, and finally decided to write down the stories I’ve personally experienced. I must emphasize that everything I’m about to share is true — real people, real events. The characters are my close relatives, still alive to this day, and everything happened in one place — my maternal hometown, Ngoc Thuy Ward, Long Bien District, Hanoi. The series of stories I’m about to tell includes events I’ve known since childhood, some I’ve witnessed firsthand, and others that occurred when my mother was still a child. Together, they weave a string of strange occurrences that cast a shadow of gloom over my family’s childhood — a darkness that seems to cling to that land.

Armed with nothing but his raw strength, cunning instincts, and an unbreakable will, he must navigate this strange new realm where sorcerers wield fire, knights ride majestic beasts, and the very air hums with ancient power. To the people of this world, he is a savage brute, an anomaly that shouldn’t exist. Yet, as chaos brews on the horizon, this so-called primitive might just be the key to shifting the balance of power. Watch as he conquers magical beasts, outwits scheming nobles, and gradually evolves from a mere caveman to something far greater. Will he carve his own legend in this mystical world, or will he remain an outsider, forever lost in time? Follow his journey in "The Caveman Chronicles: A World of Magic"—a tale of strength, wit, and the unrelenting will to survive.

This is my second poetry to my BFF, written on October 28th, 2023. I envied redwood stretched toward heaven By: Amoureax Amant I envied redwood stretched toward heaven, whose branch in branch like hand in cloud ocean, whose leaves like thread weaved curtain covered sky, whose spot like stage light lit for butterfly. I envied stray bird hummed with bugs echo, whose siren song spread through redwood shadow, whose feather swirled like lone-drifting snowflake, whose wings like flash slipped through green amber lake. I envied cowboy rode through siren sight, whose horse ran on green sea plain at twilight, whose gun aimed at wild deer in green forest, whose bonfire cooked deer meat in light gauze mist. I envied fish blew bubble in amber, whose bubble bloomed as gorgeous as flower.

This is my first poetry to my BFF, written on March 7th, 2023. Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain By: Amoureax Amant Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain, at branch in full peach blossom on mountain, but left tree branch with wind through amber lake, toward fragrant sea like drifting snowflake. Just left when butterfly danced through peach tree, just left when hummingbird echoed with bee, when rising sun turned dark cloud peach blossom, when drifting rain fell from misty cloud dome. What if peach blossom stayed till September, peach blossom might neither dance through water, nor travel with light breeze through small arbor, toward vast sea like boat sailed from harbor. What if peach asked of peach blossom's journey, here's the answer, freer than in valley.

In the shadows of the ancient Vast Forest, where whispers of power and temptation weave through the trees, two souls—Veer and Zara—find themselves on a journey that will test the limits of desire, control, and the very fabric of their reality. Nestled in the heart of Uttarakhand, Rudrapur is a bustling city where the allure of the affluent Upper Districts, the ambition of the working-class Middle Districts, and the untamed mystique of the Lower Districts collide. At the city's edge, the Vast Forest looms—a place of mystery, legend, and dark enchantment. As tales of strange creatures and supernatural forces swirl in the air, Veer, a young man born into a family of wealth and influence, feels a powerful pull toward the forest's depths. Beneath the surface of his perfect life, something stirs—something that calls him into the darkness. In this world, where power is not only measured in wealth but in manipulation, Veer is about to confront his greatest challenge yet: Zara. Beautiful, enigmatic, and impossibly alluring, Zara is no ordinary human. Her mesmerizing presence hides a deadly secret—she possesses the ability to manipulate emotions and desires with a mere glance or touch. Her seduction is more than physical; it's a dangerous game of control, where every action she takes serves a deeper, more calculated purpose. But Zara is not alone. Her mentor, the mysterious and powerful Seraphina—a humanoid creature with her own agenda—has taught her the art of seduction and manipulation, making Zara a force to be reckoned with. As Veer delves deeper into the secrets of his family, the forest, and his own heart, he becomes entwined in a web of love, lust, and power. Zara, both a guide and a manipulator, leads him through the tangled emotions of their relationship, pushing him to question his own desires and motivations. In a world where every action has consequences, Veer must decide whether to embrace or resist the seductive power Zara holds over him, while navigating the treacherous world of his family’s business, secrets, and betrayals. Amidst the raw beauty of the forest, the intrigue of Rudrapur's elite, and the looming threat of the supernatural, Veer will be forced to make choices that will shape his destiny. Will he succumb to the temptation of power, or will he rise above the manipulative forces pulling at his heart? In this game of seduction and control, every decision matters. And in the battle for power, only the strongest will survive.

In the soot-choked gutters of the Foundry District, survival isn't guaranteed, and dreams are a luxury no one can afford. Vino Mifilder, a scarred orphan with no family, no future, and no options, scrapes by in the industrial underbelly of a world ruled by the gleaming tyranny of the Empire. Towering above him are the idols of the arena-champions of Bloodsport, the brutal, televised battleground where violence is currency, and death is entertainment. But Bloodsport isn't a fantasy to Vino. It's a whisper in the smoke, a way out, a suicide mission disguised as salvation. When hunger, desperation, and fate force his hand, he registers for the games-not for glory, but for a chance to be seen in a world that's forgotten him. What follows is a slow, visceral descent into a system built on agony. Each battle, spaced weeks apart, scars deeper than the last. Vino must learn to adapt or die-facing cybernetically enhanced killers, propaganda-fueled stars, and the twisted politics of an empire that uses fighters as both weapon and spectacle. With every drop of blood, he inches closer to the truth behind the sport... and the rot at the heart of the Empire.
