The Chrono Detective

In Neo-Pandora, 2247 time is a fragile commodity. The invention of the Temporal Engine granted humanity glimpses into the past and future—but at a catastrophic cost. Reality itself has begun to unravel, splintering into fractured timelines that bleed into the present. Amidst the neon-lit chaos of this dystopian metropolis, Detective Elias Voss, a disgraced chrono-physicist turned private investigator, survives by solving cases tied to temporal anomalies. Haunted by a failed experiment that scarred him with the ability to see time’s fractures, Elias walks the razor’s edge between the past’s ghosts and the future’s shadows.  When Dr. Lila Kane, a desperate Temporal Institute scientist, begs for his help, Elias is thrust into a conspiracy that threatens to erase Neo-Pandora from existence. A rogue experiment has unleashed a time rift fueled by the Fractured Hourglass, a mythical artifact rumored to hold dominion over time itself. As Elias and Lila race to stop the rift, they uncover a chilling truth: the Hourglass is merely a fragment of the Chrono Core, an ancient power capable of rewriting history—or erasing it entirely.  But the Core’s secrets are guarded by shadowy forces. From the neon-drenched underworld to the Institute’s ivory towers, Elias confronts rogue time travelers, paradox-born monsters, and his own fractured memories. Every step closer to the Chrono Core warps reality further, forcing Elias to question what—or who—is truly real. As the rift consumes the city, he must decide whether to repair time… or shatter it to save humanity Will Elias Voss outrun the ghosts of his past, or will time itself become his greatest enemy?  The Chrono Detective is a high-stakes journey through a collapsing world where every second counts—and every choice could doom reality itself.

Readers who love dark fantasy, supernatural Westerns, or mythic horror will absolutely be hooked from the Story. Sneak Peak "He should have died a hundred times. But luck always rescued him. Now, that luck is fading, and the cost could be his soul." In Hollow's Bend, a town shrouded in fog, Elias Thorne is a man who ought to have died a long time ago. A drunkard, a gambler, a fighter, he lives life as if the world itself is inclined to his advantage. No blade has ever touched him, no bullet has ever struck true, and no tumble has ever left him broken. Luck, devil's bargain, people call it these things, but everybody agrees on one thing. Elias Thorne is untouchable. Or at least, he was. Whispers circulate of an amulet concealed under his shirt, a dirty, unpretentious necklace that vibrates with something inhuman. A gift? A curse? An obligation? Elias never bothered to inquire. Not until now. When a band of ruthless outsiders comes to Hollow's Bend, searching for the fabled charm, Elias is drawn into a game of death where his luck is no longer his own. They know what he holds. They know what it can do. And they know the secret he has denied for years… Luck isn't cheap. It's borrowed. And all debts have to be paid. Fleeing from merciless hunters and something much worse, a faceless, nameless collector who stalks in the mist and speaks in enigmas, Elias finds an unexpected friend in Selene, a woman with dark eyes and darker secrets. She is the only one who knows the amulet. Because she used to wear it. And she paid the price. Selene insists that there is only one exit: pass the curse on to another. Someone has to take it willingly, embracing the destiny that goes with it. It's the only way Elias can be free. But Elias has lived his life fighting, surviving, running from the inevitable. Now, he has to make the most brutal bet of all: his soul for another's. With each step, the shadows lengthen. The amulet is transforming him. The whispers are growing louder. Time is running short. And the Collector is arriving.

Arcane Ascension: The Technomancer's Legacy

Arcane Ascension: The Technomancer’s Legacy Elias Graham was just an engineer—a university student obsessed with technology, innovation, and solving problems. But when he is suddenly summoned to a war-torn world where magic reigns and science is nothing more than a forgotten relic, he quickly realizes that survival demands more than just knowledge. Branded as an outsider, Elias struggles against a society that sees him as weak, especially when he discovers his mana reserves are nearly nonexistent. But while others cast spells and wield swords, Elias builds. Armed with nothing but his intellect and whatever scrap he can scavenge, he begins forging his own path to power—creating a war armor that fuses magic and technology. But the deeper he delves into this world, the more secrets he uncovers. The ruling Academy, which controls all knowledge of magic, fears technology—and for good reason. Beneath ancient ruins lie remnants of the Vanguard, a lost civilization that once stood at the pinnacle of both science and sorcery. And within those ruins, Elias discovers a chilling truth: he is not the first Technomancer. With war looming between the Academy and forces beyond the stars, Elias must race against time to unearth the secrets of Project Genesis, unlock the power of the legendary war armor, and fight enemies who see him as either a threat or a savior. As his inventions evolve, so too does the battlefield—pushing him from a lone engineer into a commander, and ultimately, the only one who can stand between humanity and extinction. But history has a habit of repeating itself. The last Technomancer failed. Elias refuses to. In a world where magic dominates, he will rise as the first warrior of science. The question is—will he change the world, or will the world break him first?

The Echo of a False Hero

The Veilstone once shielded the world from a converging dimension teeming with horrors—creatures of unexplainable terror, shaped by fragmented myths and forgotten folklore, each taking on different interpretations across time. But when the Veilstone shattered thousands of years ago, the barrier collapsed. Perhaps out of desperation—if it was even capable of such a thing—it chose Heroes before its final destruction. Six divine classes emerged, wielding power strong enough to hold back the Void... but only for a time. As the rifts grew stronger and the world descended into chaos, heroes and humans alike fell before the Voidborne. Until they discovered the power of Voidshards—the cores of these eldritch beings. By transferring these shards into themselves, warriors gained monstrous abilities beyond human comprehension, tied to the creature they had slain. But there was a cost. Those without the blessing of Heroic Sigils, unprotected from corruption, slowly lost their minds—warping into the very Voidborne they once fought. And thus, the cycle of slaughter and transformation continued. Elias was not born a hero. He awakened with no past, wandering a dying world in search of memories he couldn’t grasp. But when a fateful encounter with a Voidborne and the fanatical Ashborn Clan drags him into a battle far beyond his understanding, his struggle for survival becomes something far greater. In a war where men turn to monsters, and gods remain silent, Elias must forge his own path—or be consumed by the very darkness that seeks to claim him.

Trial Of The Fallen Gods

In a world ruled by gods—ancient Greek gods, elemental deities, and even angels and devils—mortals are mere pawns in the hands of the divine. For centuries, humans have bowed before these gods, their fates decided by the whims of immortal beings. But not all mortals are content to be ruled. Amidst this divine hierarchy, Elias stands as a broken man, consumed by rage and a thirst for revenge. His family was slaughtered by the strongest of the gods, a being so powerful, so terrifying, that no mortal could even comprehend their true strength. Elias was left for dead, the ruins of his home smoldering as his family perished in the divine purge. All he has now is hatred and a singular goal: to gain power—enough to challenge the god who took everything from him. His only hope lies in the Trial, a legendary dungeon created by the gods themselves. This dungeon is rumored to grant immense power to those who can survive its challenges, but there’s a catch: only the strongest can endure the Trial’s horrors. Though Elias is weak, his burning desire for vengeance has awakened something within him—a mysterious ability known as Absorption. Whenever he kills an enemy, he can absorb their power, taking their strength for his own. But each victory comes with its own toll, and as Elias grows stronger, he learns that absorbing too much power can come at a great cost. As he ventures into the Trial, Elias faces not only the powerful creatures of the dungeon but also divine obstacles set in place by the gods to protect their secrets. But with every challenge he overcomes, his power grows, and he begins to uncover the dark truth behind his family’s murder—the identity of the god who killed them. With his newfound strength and a thirst for vengeance, Elias must decide whether to continue down the path of revenge, or to challenge the very gods who rule over the world. But time is running out, and the gods are not so easily slain. Will Elias become the harbinger of a new era—one where gods no longer reign—or will he succumb to the trials and his own dark ambitions? --- Genres: Action, Fantasy, Drama, Revenge, Adventure Themes: Power, Revenge, Corruption, Divine Politics, Betrayal

But when Elias, an eccentric and sharp-witted boy, starts having strange, prophetic dreams, his world begins to shift in ways he never imagined.

But then, Elias discovers something far more dangerous: the ability to control dreams, shape reality, and bend people’s will to his own. What starts as an innocent experiment quickly spirals into something darker. With each passing day, Elias becomes more consumed by his power, his mind twisting with the endless possibilities it offers. His childhood friend Lina doesn’t see the change, his classmates laugh at his antics, and even his closest friend, Gabriel, remains unaware. But Gabriella—Gabby—senses something is wrong. She’s always been distant, always kept her guard up. But now, as she watches Elias slip further into his obsession, she finds herself drawn into a mystery bigger than anything she’s ever faced. The strange messages in their group chat, the way Elias’s gaze lingers just a second too long—it all points to something unnatural. As Elias teeters on the edge, hunger for power clouding his judgment, Gabby is the only one who sees the danger. The only one who might be able to pull him back. But can she reach him before it’s too late? Or will he become something far beyond saving? A story of power, obsession, and the thin line between control and chaos—where dreams are no longer just dreams, and the greatest battle is not against fate, but against oneself.
