For a thousand years, the Empire of Verdun has ruled in peace and prosperity, rising from the ashes of the Great War to become the strongest force the world has ever known. But history has a way of circling back—and now, something ancient, something long buried, is beginning to stir. Forgotten secrets are resurfacing. Strange forces are gathering in the shadows. And the empire’s golden age may soon come crashing down. In the midst of this looming storm, a boy awakens in a desolate forest—alone, wounded, and with no memory of who he is. He has no name, no past to cling to—only questions that lead to more mysteries. Taken in by strangers, he begins to piece together a world on the brink of change: rulers tightening their grip, unrest brewing in the outer provinces, and whispers of powers that defy even the empire’s might. But the boy is different. Something in him doesn’t belong to this era. Something ancient moves beneath his skin—something the world has forgotten, but will soon remember. As rebellion simmers and old powers reawaken, the nameless boy stands at the heart of it all. His fate, and the fate of Verdun, are bound together. He must uncover the truth of who he is... before the empire’s final hour strikes. One thing is certain—the world of Verdun will never be the same again. And neither will he. {Disclaimer - I've used third party for translation purposes as english is my third language, thank you for understanding.}

The world ended when the last Author fell. The story should have stopped. But someone kept writing. In the fog-drenched city of Nocthaven, where fate is scripted by unseen gods known as the Authors, every life follows a page. Every breath, every death, prewritten. But the pen fell silent. Time froze. The world decayed. Yet Darksun walks still. Branded a Defector, he carries the Nameless Manuscript—a living anomaly that lets him rewrite fragments of fate. Each stroke of its ink grants power… and madness. Hunted by Archivists, whispered about in shadows, and pursued by those who fear what he could become, Darksun defies the ending etched by the divine. But tampering with fate is not without price. As forgotten scripts awaken, ancient entities stir, and Rewrite Agents begin their purge, one truth becomes clear: He is not the hero. Not the villain. Not the chosen one. He is the one who writes after the end. --- Dark Fantasy Mystery Narrative System Post-Apocalyptic Anti-Hero MC Fate Manipulation Cosmic Horror Scheming Urban Fantasy System-Without-System ---

I don't mind the criticism in any way, just don't vent and dump the sh*t you go through in the comments. As it is my first novel, there can be some plotholes and you might find some references from other novels as I am learning while reading from them. Currently looking to work around 2k words per chapter. Hope it keeps the same pace. Character images will be provided time to time and maybe some fighting artwork too. Will add discord further in the future.

In a dying world ravaged by its own mistakes, salvation came not from science, nor prayer—but from blood. When ancient texts speak of Skarveth, a forgotten god whose blood can heal the earth, desperate humans summon him from the depths of the sea. The ritual works. Forests bloom overnight. Life returns. And then—judgment begins. Skarveth, beautiful and terrifying, offers no mercy. His divine laughter turns skies red, and his hair—growing crimson with every life it drains—sweeps across continents like a plague. No sin is too old, no believer too faithful. As humanity crumbles under the weight of its own prayer, a boy named Azael listens to a mysterious old storyteller—Grampy Odd—whose bedtime tales seem a little too real. But stories are just stories. Aren’t they?

Synopsis: He was once the face of perfection. A model adored by millions, worshipped under flashing lights—until one fell and ended everything. Now, he wakes in a world not his own. With no grand prophecy, no system guiding him, and no clue why he was brought here, he finds himself stranded in the northern wilds of the Central Continent—where demons roam and monsters thrive. Surviving alone would have been impossible… if not for the arrival of a man whose name is spoken in awe across all five continents. Michael Kaiser. The Savior of the World Tree. The Son of Earth. The Brother of Orcs. The Friend of Giants. The Beloved of Dragons. And the one hailed as the strongest being alive. To the rest of the world, Kaiser is a living myth. But to the nameless outsider, he becomes something far more personal: a mentor, a guide, and the first true friend in a world teetering between peace and chaos. Thrown into the shadow of a living legend, the fallen star begins a journey—not to rival the greatest, but to rediscover himself beneath the weight of a sky already filled with giants. Yet fate is not so easily tamed. Some stars may fall... only to rise again beside the sun.

When a world teeters on the edge of annihilation, a forbidden ritual is performed by desperate mages. But what they summon is no mere hero or divine savior. What emerges is a being without equal—a presence that bends magic, reality, and existence itself. He has no name. No allegiance. No destiny imposed upon him. Out of curiosity, he chooses one: Albert. Endowed with limitless magical power, able to control all forms of magic known or unknown, Albert can subdue demons, dragons, elves, dwarves, spirits, and even gods—without effort. With a whisper, he can rewrite the very laws of the world. But he does not come to conquer or save. He walks… to observe. As nations prepare, gods awaken, and ancient beings tremble, a single question echoes through every realm: Will Albert preserve this world… or rewrite it from nothing?

“This time… I’ll make it further.” The Tower didn’t fall from the sky. It didn’t rise from the earth. It was just… there. A thousand floors. They called it a path to godhood. I called it the place that took everything from me. My father entered and never came back. My brother followed him—and disappeared too. I stayed behind. Weak. Forgotten. Powerless. Until the day I lost the last thing that kept me outside. And a letter came—from my brother, who was supposed to be long dead. That’s when I climbed. That’s when I died. But the Tower didn’t let me go. I returned to the start. Again. And again. Every death sends me back. I don’t know why. I don’t know how. But with every reset… I grow stronger. I carry every scar. Every betrayal. Every scream I couldn’t stop. The Tower remembers none of it. But I do. This climb isn’t about reaching the top anymore. It’s about whether I can survive the weight of my own story. Because in the end… I am the one who remains.

Where it ends… only the void knows.
