Doran Thargrimm is no ordinary smith. Beneath his war-scarred exterior lies a master forgeman whose skill with runes can breathe life—and vengeance—into weapons and artifacts. In a realm where brutal martial arts and arcane powers collide, Doran forges his destiny with every swing of his hammer. When his latest creation, a runeblade-etched warhammer named Skarnvalk, begins to whisper its will, Doran is thrust into a brutal journey that will test the limits of his skill and his soul. Ruthless and unyielding in battle, he fights not only to survive, but to leave his mark on a dying world. Along the way, he gathers a ragtag band of allies—each scarred, skilled, and deadly in their own right—who help him carve out a new faction in the chaos, bound by bonds of blood, steel, and dark humor. With vivid world-building, weapons that possess personalities, and no shortage of visceral combat, Doran’s story dives into a gritty landscape where strength is forged in fire, memories hold power, and every battle leaves scars both physical and emotional. A grim, adult-themed saga where every decision shapes the course of not just the characters, but the very fabric of the world they fight to reclaim.

It’s 2100, and Vincent Carter – Ying – is a twenty-year-old virgin with a penchant for profanity, he has but three guiding principles: “In a world where honour and valour seem like unaffordable luxuries, cowardice remains the pragmatist’s ultimate virtue. Spinelessness isn’t shameful, it’s simply self-preservative romance.” “Doubt is unironically the cheapest superpower a person can have, after all if it’s human, it’s probably plotting something. And if it’s plotting something, it’s probably hiding something. And if it’s hiding something… well, you get the idea. So question everything, one sceptical step at a time.” And lastly, “Muscle heads – because who needs brains when you can just flex your way through life? Couldn’t be me, I’ll tell you that much.” Armed with nothing but these… questionable (?) values, as well as experiences shaped by a hellish life in the slums, Ying dives headfirst into the latest VR sensation – Cultivation Climax, a world brimming with great magic, ancient mysteries, and blood-curdling conspiracies just waiting to be unravelled. However, because Ying’s life is just that kind of special, he is greeted with a rather ‘lovely’ surprise upon opening his eyes to the new world… Ding! [Your misfortune is truly astounding!] [You have awakened the absolute WORST talent for Cultivation!] ‘…’ “…W-what?!” Yes, what indeed. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/633482/fictions.

Human life is not merely a collection of present moments. Every feeling, every attraction, every decision stems from a much deeper order—a soul’s long journey, drifting, learning, and remembering across lifetimes and ages. For Avarka, the world has always been full of mysteries. She was taken in, loved, and taught, yet deep inside, she always felt destined for something greater. When she decides to leave for Rindanof, the city of angels, she does not yet realize that she must not only become a warrior but also uncover the deepest layers of her own existence. The journey, however, tests not only the body but also the soul. As she comes to understand the laws of the world more deeply, she realizes that every attraction, every love, and everything we cling to was once already a part of our soul. Are we truly guided by free will, or do the memories of our past lives lead us down a familiar yet forgotten path? Beyond the borders of the known world, between humans and angels, an invisible war rages—not just with weapons, but with emotions, faith, and awareness. Avarka faces a choice: to plunge into battle or to understand that the greatest war is not fought in the outside world, but within ourselves.

Her life's going to change when the first trips to the set scenerios for filming her latest movie put in motion an unexpected plot of its own, two different stories intertwining with disastrous results.

I let out a bitter laugh. “It’s ironic, isn’t it? You spent years making my life a living hell, and now you look at me like I’m the very air you breathe.” Lennox’s face fell. “Olivia, it wasn’t supposed to be like this—” I cut him off, my eyes blazing with anger. “Oh, but it was. You wanted me broken. You wanted me to suffer. And I did.” I paused, my voice trembling. “But not anymore.” Louis, who had been silent, spoke softly. “Olivia, we—” I shook my head and took a step back, putting distance between us. “No. Whatever you think you feel, it doesn’t matter. It’s too late. You had a choice. And every single time, you chose her. Over and over again, you chose Anita.” Levi shook his head. “We were wrong.” I met their gazes. “Yes, you were. And now, you’ll have to live with it.” With that, I turned away, refusing to let them see the tears burning in my eyes. •••••••• Olivia Parker was once the cherished daughter of a respected Gamma—until betrayal shattered her world.
