A funny slice of life.

Synopsis: "Echoes of the Dreaming Gods" Overview: "Echoes of the Dreaming Gods" is a surreal, mythological adventure that intertwines the fates of four protagonists Astraea, Ikaros, Selene, and Orion who each struggle with the burdens of their pasts while navigating an ever-shifting world shaped by both ancient myths and fluid dreamscapes. Guided and manipulated by celestial entities known as the Dreaming Gods, the characters embark on a journey that transcends time and space, exploring themes of ambition, power, fate, and self-discovery. Plot: In a world where reality is as unstable as a dream, the ancient Dreaming Gods begin to stir, their influence reaching across time and dimensions. These gods represent primal forces and cosmic archetypes, and they seek to manipulate mortals for their own ends. As the boundaries between the mythic past, the surreal present, and the speculative future begin to blur, four characters are drawn together, their destinies intertwined. Astraea, once a powerful queen lost to time, wanders invisibly through the modern world, forgotten by history but desperate to reclaim her lost kingdom and fading identity. She embarks on a quest to confront the Dreaming Gods and restore her power, all the while battling her growing irrelevance in a world that no longer remembers her. Ikaros, a descendant of the mythical Icarus, is cursed by his family's legacy of doomed ambition. He is a modern-day inventor, obsessed with breaking the cycle of failure by creating a device that can alter time. His journey takes him through parallel dimensions where he must confront the limits of his ambition and the painful memories of his ancestors' downfall. Selene, a silent oracle who can see the future but is cursed never to speak it, is drawn into the ever-shifting city of dreams. She wanders, writing cryptic messages on walls and watching as the calamities she foresees come to pass. Her quest is to find a way to break her curse and finally give voice to the future, knowing that her silence has caused untold suffering. Orion, an eternal rebel cursed by the Dreaming Gods to live through endless cycles of revolution and failure, struggles with his disillusionment. Once a great revolutionary leader, he is now cynical and battle-weary, fighting for causes he no longer believes in. His journey through time is a search for meaning beyond rebellion, as he contemplates abandoning his fight or finding a new purpose. Their individual journeys are set into motion by a celestial event the reawakening of the Dreaming Gods triggered by a mysterious shift in the cosmic order. As time begins to unravel and dreams bleed into reality, each character is thrust into a series of surreal adventures that test their willpower, morality, and sense of identity. The Dreaming Gods are not malevolent, but they are indifferent to the struggles of mortals, using the characters as pawns in their grand game. They manifest in shifting, symbolic forms an ever-moving river, a cloud of stars, or a colossal stone statue and offer each protagonist a chance at redemption, knowledge, or freedom, though the cost is always steep. Act I: The novel opens with each character in their respective worlds. Astraea is searching for a way to restore her lost kingdom, Ikaros is feverishly working on his time-altering invention, Selene is watching prophecies unfold from the shadows, and Orion is caught in the midst of another doomed rebellion. When the Dreaming Gods reawaken, time begins to warp, and they are all pulled into a shared, interconnected journey. Act II: The characters’ paths converge as they enter a series of mythic realms parallel dimensions where reality is fluid, and the Dreaming Gods test their inner struggles. Astraea journeys through a desert where the sands constantly shift, mirroring her uncertain identity; Ikaros navigates a city where time loops upon itself, forcing him to relive his failures; S

Stories... They are one of the major essences of life -- abundant everywhere, yet barely noticed. Don't believe it? Think... That colleague of yours that recently got fired, do you think of them often? Regardless, their life is a story. The old man you saw while walking down the street, how is he now? You probably don't know, but he has his own story. That acquaintance you've always known to be an orphan? They definitely have a story. Finally, that web novel author whose writing you mocked? They must have quite a few, including their own (you might just be part of one). The difference is that the ones deemed uninteresting and clichéd are not seen, heard or read by outsiders. ------------------------------------------------------------------ This specific story is about a man who thought his life was decent - maybe even better than that with his recent achievements. And it truly might've been if the poor soul went unnoticed by the cruel hands of fate. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Try and read this newbie author's attempt of granting this man a story that would be considered his... and only his.
