Late Victorian

10,000 Years Too Late

When a freak accident claims her life, Riley finds herself inexplicably aboard a strange spaceship, joined by seven other souls who perished at the same moment. Initially terrified, they gradually forge a bond in this unexpected afterlife, transforming the sterile vessel into a haven of camaraderie. Their newfound peace is shattered by the arrival of a cryptic message from a powerful entity known as AXIS. AXIS tasks them with a critical mission: journey to different worlds teetering on the brink of collapse, identify the source of their turmoil, and restore balance. The eight become unlikely saviors, traversing the cosmos and leaving legends in their wake. They are first sent to Sveethlad, a diseased world on the bring of breaking apart. They are tasked to save it. They will, but doing so would fundamentally test the bonds they've built the time they were in the spaceship and after a while they are sent to several more worlds to save. Their latest mission however, the Axis system would suffer a glitch, Riley would find herself transported to another world, seemingly on the brink of destruction, the only difference is that she had been sent there ten thousand years too late, and all her friends have become gods. It should be the best thing ever but many things are not right in this new world, most of the gods are asleep, one of them is missing and another one is dead. Riley would have to find out what happened to her friends in the time she was gone, why they became they way they are and if, perhaps it was all inevitable from the start.

The Ring Of Consistency

As the author of this book I should give a fair warning: the first chapters are a scam!! Okay, let me explain. The character that you most likely think is the protagonist, is not the protagonist. Why? Honestly, idk, I just felt like doing it. Makes the story feel more realistic and approachable because every character is worth something. The story follows a male lead, Ju Min-Jung, who at one point in his life was a normal middle-aged man from Korea. He gets transmigrated to a world called Einar as Lychipher Klein in which becoming quote-unquote a "god", is not just possible, but relatively common. Years have gone by in a flash and Lychipher has enjoyed a simple and laid-back life, going by the nickname of Whiskey. The story starts when a contracted guild summons the lovecraftian inspired eldritch entity known as Dietrich, which fragmented itself into several variants born from chosen women. The fragments each have the distinct feature of white hair and can be released when the variant is killed. When all the variants are killed each fragment will be fused allowing Dietrich to form in Einar. This quickly escalates into family feuds, mystery, mystism and the occult. Questions emerge perpetually the instant one is answered, mysterious forces are at work pulling the strings behind closed curtains and fate seems to be the greatest for of all.... What to expect: Firstly is the world of Einar. It's a world entirely fictional so don't try to wrap your head around the timeline because I honestly just smashed several themes that I liked together. Originally, I chose for late 16th century baroque and renaissance, but later I also added elements of the western victorian era, the wild west and more. Now the next thing to expect is probably not something you'll appreciate much, and that is slow pacing. I know, I know —you're probably screaming "whyyy!?". But it's best for the story to play out the way it should, ya' know- instead of rushing it. Besides, going for a mysterious factor demands slow pacing because otherwise the mystery is short-lived.
