Labor

Ash and Silence

In a world scarred by endless war, Xieren is an ashborn, a member of a forgotten caste bound to the grim labor of the Burn Field. This vast, desolate arena, forever shrouded under a sky the color of old iron , is where the five great Factions wage their perpetual skirmishes , leaving the ashborn to tend to the dead and "silence the past." Xieren’s existence is a weary cycle of survival, his only solace found in the quiet companionship of his grizzled father-figure, Fen, and the fragile hope he shares with Elia. Elia is the defiant light in Xieren's world of gray. Where he sees only the grim reality of their cage, she sees the promise of a life beyond the ash. Their shared dream of escaping seems impossible until Elia reveals a dangerous secret: she can wield Oryn, a rare and mysterious power. This newfound power is their only chance. Their path to freedom lies through the brutal Writemark Trials, a deadly competition that promises citizenship to the victor. But Elia’s gift is also a death sentence. Unregistered Oryn-users are considered glitches to be deleted. As they begin to train in secret, they find that the power is a heavy burden, a force that physically drains Elia and pushes her closer to collapse with each use. Caught between the lethal pragmatism of Fen, who warns that hope is the most dangerous thing one can possess in the Burn Field, and the burning intensity of Elia’s ambition, Xieren must make a choice. To win their freedom, he must embrace a dream that could lead them to glory or to the pyre. In a world built on death and decay, can a single spark of hope light a path to a new dawn, or will it merely be the flash before they are extinguished forever?

The SHEWOLF & The LAST HE-DRAGON

Ingrid Dolph, a lowly she-wolf happens to be in her ripe age of locating her mate. And it was during this time that the rumor about a dragon egg spread like wildfire and everyone was asked to hunt for it. Whoever finds it will have a greater share and unbelievable privileges. Excited for the hunt, Ingrid takes part in it with the motive of finding it and bargaining for its blood and scale. But as fate would have it, she didn't just find it but that same dragon turns out to be her mate. ***** ~{SNEAK PREVIEW}~ As I got close, I came to realize that it was a full grown naked man. What? A man? How was the dragon a man? Suddenly I growled and groaned as my body grew hot by just the sight of it. What was wrong with me? Could it be that my wolf side was affected by the dragon because of the smell of its blood? Disregarding the fact that he was naked, I approached him and my breathing became labored as my senses heightened to an intense level I never knew possible. When I saw how he curled himself in a fetal position with his hand holding his bloody abdomen, my blood boiled and I punched the rock he was laying close to. “Who would dare do such a thing to him!” I angrily said aloud and that was when his eyes opened causing my breath to get caught in my throat. He was breathtaking! His lashes were white as his eyebrows and they shimmered while his iris were gray in color. “Ingrid,” he breathed out and my eyes widened at the fact that he knew my name.

I Am Not The Only Monster In This Story

MONSTORY is a dark, character-driven dystopian fantasy set in a fractured future Seattle, where Alucards, winged beings bred in captivity, have never known freedom. Engineered for labor, silenced by law, and bound by control collars, they serve without rights, their wings bound and identities erased. Igor, once a slave in a coal mine and now a servant in the estate of a powerful human family, survives by suppressing who he truly is. But as fragments of memory return and his conditioning begins to fail, the cracks in his obedience widen. Haunted by a name he wasn’t allowed to keep, and a violence he was trained to deliver, Igor teeters between the roles of monster and man. As old power structures begin to fracture, MONSTORY explores the cost of survival in a world built on inherited cruelty. With themes of captivity, trauma, rebellion, and the aching need to be seen as human, this is a story about one enslaved Alucard's quiet war for autonomy, and the fire that might burn everything down to get it. What to Expect: - A brainwashed vampire-like weapon who might kill you... Or just spiral into an identity crisis first. - Mind games, manipulation, and memory wipes, because therapy is illegal and cults are trendy. - Slow-burn character drama where trauma is the main currency and no one gets out clean. - Rebellion run by morally bankrupt idealists. You’ll root for them. You’ll regret it. - Found family, lost family, broken family, pick your flavor of pain. - Beautiful prose with teeth. Think poetry, but it bites back. - A dark, tangled web of secrets that punishes you for trusting anyone, including the narrator. - Emotional devastation with the occasional flash of tenderness, like a knife glinting in moonlight. What Not to Expect: - OP wish-fulfillment MCs who level up by chapter 3. This isn’t that kind of grind. - A harem. Unless you count trauma bonding with your enemies. - Quirky comic relief characters. We have one guy who tells jokes. He’s not okay. - Morality that’s easy to swallow. It’s more like choking on holy water. - Fluffy romance. It’s complicated, possibly cursed, and not approved by HR. - Adults who fix things. The adults are the problem.

The Calamity Crest

In a world ruled by thirteen powerful witch covens, magic is the exclusive domain of women, while men exist as slaves, servants, and laborers in a rigid matriarchal hierarchy. Queens bow to witches, and witches answer only to the ancient bloodlines that have controlled reality itself for centuries. For twenty-three years, Kael has known his place—breaking his back in the mines, enduring casual cruelty, and watching fellow slaves die for the crime of wanting to live with dignity. But buried deep beneath the earth lies a secret the covens thought they had erased forever: the tomb of the Witch of Calamity, the fourteenth bloodline destroyed centuries ago for threatening the established order. When a witch's reckless magic triggers a catastrophic cave-in during a mining expedition, Kael plunges through layers of stone to discover the perfectly preserved remains of the most feared witch in history. In that ancient tomb, something impossible happens. The Witch of Calamity's crest burns itself into Kael's palm, marking him as the first male in recorded history to wield magic. But this is no ordinary power—it is chaotic, destructive, and hungry for the blood of those who created the current world order. As the crest's influence grows stronger, Kael must navigate the deadly game of hiding his abilities while learning to control forces that could reshape—or destroy—everything. Caught between his burning desire for revenge and the terrifying realization that his power grows stronger through violence and rage, Kael faces an impossible choice. He could use the Witch of Calamity's legacy to free his people and tear down the system that has oppressed them for generations. Or he could become the very monster the original covens feared—a force of pure destruction that would leave nothing but ashes in its wake. In a world where power has always belonged to the ruthless, what happens when the ultimate power falls into the hands of someone with nothing left to lose? The answer lies in the forbidden magic of the Calamity Crest, and in the choice between justice and vengeance that will determine the fate of two civilizations. The witches thought they had buried their greatest threat forever. They were wrong.

Phantom Weaver of the Veiled Eclipse

Inola was just your typical beast kin orphan—ears too sharp, stomach too empty, and dreams far too big for the crumbling orphanage she called home. The place was run by a greasy baron with a combover and a crooked smile, who made sure the kids knew the value of silence, obedience, and cheap labor. But today—today was her thirteenth birthday. And somehow, today also happened to be the day she found herself standing in a line stretching halfway across the capital, clutching a ticket made of black silk and gilded gold leaf. Her fingers trembled just holding it. Everyone else in line stared like she’d grown wings and started breathing fire. She still didn’t know how this happened. All she did was help a sweet old lady cross the road yesterday. The carts had been fast, the rain had been pouring, and she’d nearly slipped twice. But the old lady had smiled, warm as cinnamon bread, and handed her the strange ticket without another word before disappearing into the alleyways. It wasn’t until this morning that Inola learned who that old woman was. The former Queen of Vaerindale. Disguised and wandering the city for her own mysterious reasons. And that ticket? A personal invitation—one of only thirteen—to enter the newly discovered Mythic Dungeon before anyone else. A dungeon no one had survived exploring. A dungeon rumored to contain Essence Stones—ancient artifacts of unimaginable power, used to forge custom classes with limitless potential. And Inola, ragged boots and patched coat and all, was going in as a scout. Well… whatever. Life hadn’t exactly offered her many handouts before, so this? This was a miracle. And she wasn’t about to waste it. Her claws flexed. Her tail twitched with anticipation. “I’m going to make a better life for myself. Even if I have to claw it out of the dungeon with my bare hands.” Read as this fox kin becomes the most powerful illusion-type classer as she masters how to bend reality with her Phantom Weaver of the Veiled Eclipse class.

Der Unerwartete Außerirdische Teilhaber (The Unexpected Alien...)

This story starts about two decades after the Mars Human/Katzen colony was built. In orbit of Mars is a new ship construction satellite, and for resources the asteroids from the nearby Asteroid Belt are mined. The colony and satellite were built by CAW (Collation of Aligned Worlds) using some human labor. The colony contains a place where young humans are taught about technology, space travel, as well as the economics and politics of the CAW. Most of the instructors are Katzens, there are a few other member species as well. There are also a few human instructors, mostly teaching Human culture to the members of CAW. University to the Stars, as it was named about a decade ago, was created so that humans could be a part of CAW, as part of the arrangement, in exchange for knowledge, humans will give their support to CAW in manpower, as well as a sharing of sought after parts of culture. It was agreed it was better to have it off world, as Terran politics and religion did not mix well with pretty much anything. Many on Earth are not happy with this arrangement, but since they won't leave Terra, there's not much they can do about it. Those that are admitted into the program for labor or schooling are carefully screened, and agree to limited contact to those they leave behind. About eighty percent make it through screening. The Katzen have agreed to help those accepted get to Mars unmolested. There are families of CAW species that live on Mars as well, mostly Katzen. Mars does not have any political connection to Terra other than what was already mentioned. CAW does not get involved with internal conflicts on Terra except for humanitarian aid. In trade for aid, they must offer candidates for the help with construction, maintenance or their young for the university. Those candidates are also screened with about only ten percent that make it to Mars. Children as young as twelve are eligible for schooling. If a human family lives on Mars, they have basic schooling starting at age four available that is shared with the rest of the species living their. As it was the Katzen that found and later convinced the Humans to join, they have the strongest relationship with Humans. Some say this is because of all the cat videos on YouTube. It just so happened that Katzen's core system was on the edge of the galactic group next to Terra's. They have a somewhat new colony world on what we call Kapteyn b. It was inhabited a few decades before Terra was found. In fact, that is when Terran radio signals were discovered that led to the investigation of that world. That will be discussed in detail in the prequel, but needs some mention here. All member species except the humans have trade worlds with colonies on worlds or moons with trade stations orbiting them. The humans have or are in the process of building small trade stations in orbit around the other trade colonies. This is where all official trade takes place between them. There are some systems with nothing but mining outpost stations as they don't have any habitable planets or moons, and those systems are not worth any species colonizing. CAW technology is about a thousand years ahead of the humans. Everyone has some kind of personal communication, entertainment and computation device. Even the most basic compared to Terran tech is like comparing the IBM neuroscientist to an Altair 8800. Most people of the CAW have them embedded into their bodies such as their arm or appendage with holographic displays, or even in the head with micro displays on their corneas or visual sensory organ and audio feed and pickups in their ear canals or audio sensory organ powered by their own bodies. Some even have it wired directly into their brains receptors powered the same way. Some go old school and carry a device with them with batteries, a screen and audio drivers, these people are thought of to be eccentric.

BL: The Northern Grand Duke’s Hamster (Novel Translation)

After an accident, I reincarnated into a novel I'd stopped reading. — Squeak! (What the?!) I'd become a hamster, a creature that never even appeared in the original story. [Current Miracle Value: 1%] [Raise your Miracle Value to save yourself from death!] As a tiny hamster, I was given a quest: bring "miracles" to this world, and I could return to my original body. "How about saving Kyle? That's a miracle, in a way!" [Goal decision completed: Save Kyle Jane Meinhardt.] [Selecting quest...] However, when I decided to save Kyle—the very reason I'd stopped reading the novel—from his imminent death, things got complicated. "Why are you trying to dance with me? There are so many people over there!" "Why? Because out of all those people, you're my pet." Being able to temporarily use Miracle Value to become human is great, but... is it just me, or is life as a human far more difficult than as a rodent? "If I tie you up, you won't disappear." "... Don't you know confinement is a crime?" Will I be able to save Kyle and bring a happy ending to this world? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This fan translation of "The Northern Grand Duke's Hamster" is a labor of love and is intended purely for personal enjoyment and to promote the original work.

The Iron Strategist of 1914

Set against the backdrop of a Europe torn apart by the Great War, The Iron Strategist of 1914 follows Emil Kranze, a shrewd industrialist and strategist who rises to prominence by building a sprawling war production empire. But while bullets and steel shape the battlefield, Emil soon discovers that the greatest threats come not from enemy trenches but from within his own city. As his factories churn out munitions and supplies, a shadow war unfolds—conspiracies and betrayals by rival industrial factions, corrupt politicians, and underground agitators threaten to undermine the entire war effort. Emil must navigate a complex web of espionage, sabotage, and political intrigue while managing the delicate alliances with labor unions and the working class. With the loyalty of workers wavering amid strikes, sabotage, and growing unrest, Emil forms uneasy partnerships with union leaders like Markus Brandt, seeking to rebuild trust through reform and transparency. Meanwhile, Helena Voss, his trusted intelligence chief, works tirelessly to root out traitors and dismantle clandestine networks intent on seizing control. Throughout these turbulent times, Emil faces not only physical battles but the unseen fight for the city’s soul—balancing power, loyalty, and sacrifice in a city on the brink of rebellion. His leadership, resolve, and strategic acumen will be tested as he strives to hold the line between order and chaos, survival and destruction. The Iron Strategist of 1914 is a gripping tale of war, industry, and human resilience, weaving together political drama and personal sacrifice amid one of history’s most tumultuous eras.
