The Steppeborn: The Art of War and the Broken Path

The Steppeborn: The Art of War and the Broken Path The steppe was never conquered. It was unmade. The Orontai rode like wind across the grasslands, their breath bound to sky and silence, not cities or thrones. But the Zhong Empire came with iron phalanxes and talismans of fire. They did not bring war. They brought extinction. Altan was born to that vanishing. A child without elemental gift. Voiceless. Spirit-null. Unwanted. Yet when the Zhong burned the clans, he did not beg. He fought. And when his mother, the last Flamecaller, stood alone on the ridge and whispered “Run,” he obeyed. Not to survive. But to remember. Hunted and broken, he fled west to the edge of the world, a place left blank on every chart, not out of myth, but because no one who entered ever returned. There, in the forbidden abyss known only in old blood and older fear, he fell into something deeper than legend. A chasm where cultivation dies and pain speaks. When he returned, the war had changed. But so had he. As phalanx legions rise and empires tighten their grip, a different kind of war begins. Formations clash in passes narrow as memory. Shields lock. Spears break. Blood spills in the thousands. There are no gods here. No destiny. Only discipline, silence, and the will to endure. And the storm no longer comes from the sky. It rises from the chasm.

Reincarnated as the Crown Prince

Lancelot Haier came from a dynasty of politicians who had ruled with tyranny and oppression. Despite those origins, he despised his family and was willing to help the citizens who had long suffered under their rule. However—before he even had the chance to change his country, the people revolted. His entire family was executed, and he was killed along with them. In his final moments, he wished for a second life—one where he could redeem himself and carry the sins of his bloodline. Unexpectedly, that wish was granted. He was reincarnated into another world as the crown prince of the Kingdom of Aragon. But in this world, everything felt backward. The country was ruled by an absolute monarch. Feudalism was the norm. Technology resembled that of the late 1700s. Fortunately, in his past life, he had earned degrees in both mechanical engineering and political science—knowledge he once hoped to use to reform his homeland. Now, it seemed he would use them here instead. He would use his modern knowledge to transform the lives of his people, industrialize his territory, gain the upper hand in technology, and form alliances with foreign nations—all while navigating the treacherous waters of internal affairs and politics. P.S While Reincarnated as the Crown Prince draws inspiration from historical settings, political systems, and technologies of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, this work is entirely fictional. All characters, governments, names, and events—although some may resemble real-world history—are products of the author’s imagination or are used in a fictionalized, altered form for narrative purposes. This novel is not a historical account. It should not be interpreted as a factual representation of any real monarch, nation, revolution, or political figure. Lancelot Haier, his backstory, and the alternate version of different kingdoms portrayed here are entirely original creations. The inclusion of familiar concepts like feudalism, industrialization, and political reform serves the plot and world-building, not historical documentation. Readers seeking accuracy in history are encouraged to consult verified academic sources. This story is a creative work meant for entertainment, character development, and speculative exploration of “what-if” scenarios rooted in alternate history. Thank you for reading, and I hope you will enjoy the journey.

Astrum Regalia: Resonance Of The Foundation.

Transported to the complex, dangerous world of Astrum Regalia – a realm of 30 continents orbiting a black hole, ruled by god-like families wielding cosmic magic – Kaelen Varis discovers he is a Pillar-Singer, uniquely attuned to the resonant network that stabilizes reality. Guided by the stern Commander Lyra Solarius and the ancient construct Cygnus, Kaelen must learn to harness his burgeoning powers to defend the network against escalating threats. The shadowy Umbral Hand launches devastating attacks, attempting to overload the network's core Resonance Sink and later infiltrating anchors using a sophisticated, weaponized Blight code. Kaelen's unique abilities prove crucial in repelling these assaults, but they reveal a deeper danger: the Hand may be using these attacks to probe the network's foundational field, seeking the location of the legendary Astrum Codex, an artifact capable of rewriting reality. Further complicating matters, a mysterious faction employs advanced temporal technology to probe the network's past, likely seeking historical vulnerabilities. Kaelen successfully jams their temporal relay but uncovers evidence that ancient design flaws are now being exploited, leading to a harrowing confrontation involving weaponized gravity near the Nyxara stratum. As Kaelen trains to perceive the foundational field more deeply, hoping to anticipate future attacks and understand the Codex's secrets, he stands as Astrum Regalia's last resonant shield against enemies wielding the powers of void, corruption, time, and gravity, fighting a war where the echoes of the past threaten to shatter the present.
