Descent

Long ago, the gods created a world full of beauty & resources; ready to embrace all life that would come to inhabit it, the world started to become populated with animals, plants, and sentient beings like elves, beastmen, demons, humans, and more. At first, the races lived in harmony, and the gods granted blessings to help them grow, build, and hunt. It was wondrous, but then, conflict started to rise between the races; as time passed, darkness began to fester in their hearts: they grew envious of the others strengths, anxious & fearful at what they could do, disgusted at their appearances. Pressure continued to rise until it couldn’t any longer, and the Grand War descended upon those prepared and unprepared… The gods knew the sentient races couldn’t exist without conflict, as they themselves couldn’t, but to see how fast they have fallen into madness… Destruction erupted and came to every corner of the world, nothing was untouched by the war, millions of lives were gone in the blink of an eye for the gods, and there was no end in sight. The world that they all created together was being destroyed bit by bit by the war, but only when the races started committing unspeakable acts to each other and their own, even to the very world to gain unnatural power did they intervene. They all unified and came to an agreement. They descended to their now ruined world and forced the fighting to a close with their power and might. Once that was done, they enforced an enactment across the world; a price for all the terrible happenings during the Grand War. For all things, no matter how far away they were, they heard these words: "You had peace, you had hope, you all had a beautiful world, but now, you have BURNT it to the ground, you all have done sick, twisted deeds to gain the slightest edge in battle… We gave blessings, with the goal to help and spread growth, but you have absconded from our wishes and only used them for self-interest and murder… There was no need for such a large and bloody war to happen, yet this is what it came down to, the war wasn’t going to end before taking the entire world down with it. And so, we had no other choice but to get involved. We gods have decided upon a fitting punishment for ALL to live under… The world shall be refitted anew with resources to make up for what has been destroyed, burned, and the horrid damage to the planet will be reversed, however, since all of you created conflict with each other in a peaceful world, we thought you all would make peace with one another in a violent one. In 10 years time, monsters shall start roaming the world, spreading forth the destruction you all once wrought… Apart, you have no chance to survive the tide of change, but together, you will survive. That is all…prepare with these 10 years, and we wish you all the best of luck." The entire speech was done by the leader of the gods, the Goddess of Creation. And with a bright flash of light, they couldn't see anything, but once their vision returned, they were surprised. The gods were gone, and the world was no longer broken, scarred... but it wasn’t as beautiful as before the Grand War, this was an unspoken punishment from the gods: the world would NOT return to how it was, no matter how much they pleaded for its beauty to return. There was another untold punishment that everyone noticed imminently on reawakening, that their previous powers were now gone! All forms of power were reset to zero, and they would have to start from scratch! Without them being able to curse out the goddess for this indignation in fear of the incoming catastrophe, the races began to rebuild and train to recoup their strength. While they had made peace and worked mutually, there was always an underlying conflict, intolerance, lingering from the Grand War. As their time came to a close, things came to fruition just as the goddess said, monsters now roamed the world, spreading the havoc once sown by their own hands.

Lily Renave, a young girl of American descent living in Medan, Indonesia, finds herself living under the shadow of her family's dark past. Her father, James G. Renave, is a former government agent who once exposed a major criminal operation led by Bruno Genovese, the boss of the Genovese crime family, one of the Five Mafia Families of New York. It all began with an online relationship between James and Stacy Spark, a British woman, whose life was turned upside down when Bruno, infatuated with Stacy's photos, ordered her kidnapping. When James could not reach Stacy, he uncovered through Interpol that she had been abducted by Genovese’s men, and the crime was caught on CCTV. James tracked her across international borders, discovering she was in Mexico, heading toward the U.S. Armed with information from satellite surveillance, James managed to track Stacy’s whereabouts and intercept her, saving her from Bruno’s grip. This led to the dismantling of a large narcotics operation tied to Genovese and ultimately resulted in Bruno's imprisonment. However, the takedown angered the mafia kingpin, and in retaliation, Bruno's associates sent James death threats. Fearing for his family's safety, James was forced to flee to Indonesia, where he hoped to disappear and start anew. Eight years later, Bruno was unexpectedly released from prison and, using his connections, tracked down the Renave family to Indonesia. Lily witnesses a brutal murder carried out by Bruno's men. Fleeing for her life, she is pursued by the mafia. Just as she is about to be captured, Lily is rescued by a mysterious stranger and falls unconscious from exhaustion. Caught between her father's past and the danger that now threatens her own life, Lily must navigate a treacherous path, uncovering dark secrets and fighting for survival. With each step, she gets closer to the truth, and to confronting Bruno and his criminal empire once and for all. This is just fiction and does not really exist. The similarity to people's names may not be intentional. Some stories use inspiration from real cases that have occurred throughout the world. However, the location of the place, as well as parties, agencies or organizations are not to denigrate or create a conspiracy. Artnorthlife Cover by AI

Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated.

The Third Dimension is collapsing. The Fourth Dimension is descending. First it seemed that only technology would evolve, but who knew the world itself could too? It wasn’t as simple as climate change or tectonic movement. No, the fundamental laws of physics that governed everything were changing. Leonel was fairly lucky. His family was decently well off, his father loved him enough to brew vomit inducing nutrient rich smoothies every morning, and this was both the day of the National Championship and his 521st confession to his dream girl, Aina. As his father always said, nothing was more important than respect and persistence. Unfortunately, everything changed that night. At the after party of ages, the world reached a saturation point and an apocalypse descended. Abilities awakened. Sub-Dimensional Zones opened. Invalids rampaged through the Earth like a virus... Those who could evolve would have a slim chance for survival. Those who couldn’t would die. This novel will be a unique spin on the dungeon/system genre. Dungeons won't be dungeons and the system won't be a system...

Crossers invaded the world and thrust Humanity into an interworld conflict. Humanity's instinct for survival was stimulated—rekindling the ancestral bloodline's legacy that lies dormant within them.

In a world where the forces of light and darkness are in constant struggle, a celestial god named Li Tian descends to the mortal realm on a sacred mission: to eradicate an ancient evil that has plagued humanity for centuries. Known for his unyielding sense of justice and purity, Li Tian has spent countless lifetimes watching over the celestial heavens, upholding order and delivering judgment. But this journey to the mortal world exposes him to the nuances of human morality, forcing him to confront the thin line between good and evil. Upon his descent, Li Tian meets Wei Yan, a mysterious, sharp-witted wanderer with an unshakable aura of danger and hidden power. Unknown to Li Tian, Wei Yan is a former demon lord who once ruled the dark underworld with an iron fist. For reasons he keeps hidden, Wei Yan left his realm and has spent years trying to tame his own dark instincts, renouncing violence and struggling to adopt a path of redemption. Still, his nature pulls him toward chaos, and he is haunted by the fear of his past self surfacing. Despite Wei Yan’s efforts to keep his identity hidden, Li Tian senses a familiar, powerful darkness within him. The two clash frequently, Li Tian’s rigid sense of justice often colliding with Wei Yan’s roguish pragmatism. However, as they journey together, battling monstrous threats and supernatural forces, an unlikely bond of brotherhood forms between them. Through each encounter, they push each other to evolve—Li Tian, slowly understanding the complexity of human morality, learns that purity of heart does not mean blindness to shades of grey; Wei Yan, wrestling with his darker instincts, starts to believe he can truly redeem himself, if only he can live up to the celestial god's trust in him. But their path is fraught with secrets and betrayals. Ancient forces from Wei Yan’s past awaken, attempting to drag him back into darkness, while the celestial heavens question Li Tian’s judgment, fearing he is being corrupted by the mortal realm. Together, they must face trials that challenge not only their strength but the core of who they are. In the end, it’s not a matter of light triumphing over darkness but rather finding balance between the two—where even those born of shadows can find redemption, and those born of light can understand the beauty of imperfection.

A pantheon of beings known as Kami or Gods rules the planet of Taria. The Universe created the original two itself when it first made the planet. Others came along as mortals were made and populated once the mortals believed in something so strongly. Then there was one who was a mortal. Kentaro stood up to Kenichi, and the people believed in so much not only did he win, but he was welcomed into the Heavens as a Kami. Then slowly, how he descended. The Tales of Madness consists of three individual tales. Each with their own main characters in the forefront as we follow the descent into madness. Volume One: Tale of a Sumotori On Taria sumo is an ancient sport devoted to a man who stood up to the War Kami Kenichi and won. He fought to decide not only the fate of his town, or the island his town was on, but the entire Sasuke Empire. Now there’s an entire martial art and sport devoted to how the man defeated and became a Kami himself. Hiroshi is a young boy born to an artisan father with a deep love and respect for the traditional sport and ritual of Sumo. After his father’s death, he chases his father’s dream of him becoming not only a sumotori, but a full rikishi. When he’s recruited into the fabled beya of Hajima under the retired Yokozuna Kenjiro, who seems to be slowly losing his grip on reality, has he got himself into something over his head? Volume Two: Tale of the Village Protector A once strong and powerful cultivator and teacher retires. All he desires is peace with his wife, and to give her a child for them to raise. They reside in a small village where he's elected as the village protector. Everything is going well in their lives, until a mysterious oracle shows up to their village with a cryptic warning that the Kami, the gods of the world, are up to no good. Silas wakes up, his town destroyed, and his power gone. The apprentice he was coerced to have and his wife, also gone. He has to uncover a plot by a rogue kami while discovering why he is powerless while he tries to find out what happened to his wife. Volume Three: Tale of a Beggar A cultivator but also a homeless beggar is sent to a western continent to help his master find a key that can help his Master's old friend. Once in the west he finds resistance to learning about different gods, but finds the god the westerners worship isn't so different from the Kami. They all look the same in the pictures they've painted. Everything changes when the town he's been staying is overrun by barbarians. They aren't cultivators, not really, they have an animalistic spirit and are very powerful in their own right. He's taken in as by the horde and while there he learns of an ancient relic that the lords of Demon have. The thing is, he's not the only one who knows about it. He has competition, a sect from the East is coming and is ready to make dark deals to get the treasure.

Akondo’s life was ordinary until the day after his 18th birthday, when everything changed. What first seemed like a heart attack turned into a nightmare when he discovered an overwhelming power: the ability to consume souls by taking over another person’s body. His first victim, tragically, was his own mother. Struggling to understand the terrifying ability that now controls his life, Akondo realizes he must consume a soul every 24 hours to survive. While he initially tries to resist the temptation, each day that passes chips away at his humanity. As he uses his power more and more, Akondo starts to lose himself to the darkness within. What begins as an effort to survive slowly turns into something far more sinister. His compassion fades, and the once kind-hearted young man begins to feel nothing but hunger. The weight of each consumed soul warps his mind, pushing him toward madness. Akondo’s moral compass shatters, and soon, he crosses a line—becoming a remorseless serial killer. This is the story of Akondo’s descent into darkness, as his struggle for survival leads him down a path from which there may be no return and only his death can stop him completely but who will stop him? maybe someone has counter to stop him.

'Nameless' was an ordinary man, toiling at a laborious job in the biting cold of his snowy village. Though life was bleak and unremarkable, he pushed on for his family. But everything changed on a fateful day when he stumbled upon an unholy sight—something so profoundly unbelievable that his mind exploded and his very soul was wrenched from his body, which then endlessly fell through the earth. As he plummeted, he caught glimpses of ancient murals, forgotten fossils, underground rivers, and civilizations long lost to time. When the descent ended, 'Nameless' found himself in an entirely different world, inhabiting the body of a young student named Abhi. At first, he believed Abhi was just a generic student, but he soon discovered that Abhi was anything but ordinary. Abhi himself was not from this world either. The soul of two transmigrators was trapped in a single body. Whose soul will take control, and whose shall perish? *** [Written by OverlyZero on Royal Road, Webnovel and Scribble Hub] Discord: https://discord.gg/vPxQZfVNXb

The Hollowing came like a thief in the dead of the night - silent, merciless, and absolute. It was an event that permanently scarred humanity’s history, stealing along all of the possibility, wonder and hope that this world once had - for it was the year that the spark of wonder had been wretched from existence, the year that magic had died. But many soon came to realise that the Hollowing was not the end but the beginning. Cracks opened around the world, bringing about the descent of the Dark fog, and along with it, a dread unbound by mortal thought which devoured the weak and hunted those who still clung too closely to the memory of magic. Year 3999. 1800 years after the Hollowing, humanity has been pushed to live inside the walls of Domes: monolithic walls, encasing gargantuan swaths of land protected by an ancient being from the era of magic, the Acacia. Yet, the peace that it brought was like a festering wound, throbbing with unresolved mysteries and bringing about feelings of hatred and fear, of that day 1800 years ago when one decided to break an oath. As tensions beneath the surface simmer and an unknown group threatens to sink humanity down once and for all, a meeting that would change the fate of a young boy - one that had the potential to shake both sides, one that would bring about change to the whole continent of Paradoxia - was about to take place. The meeting of disciple and master. It was at that moment that the goddess of fate began to spin her wheel to weave tales for this forgotten world once more.

Protagonists: Lin Feng, Lin Yunyao [Master Descends the Mountain + Invincible Cultivation + Unlimited Power Fantasy + Ruthless Action + Multiverse] In the Way of the Dao, there are imperfections, and spiritual energy has withered. A Tribulation-Transcending Master roamed the world and, by chance, discovered an unparalleled genius with a natural spiritual constitution. He forcefully took this individual as his disciple and retreated from the world for ten years. Ten years later, the Tribulation Master passed away. Lin Feng descended the mountain, riding his sword, embarking on his legendary journey. Lin Feng: “The path of cultivation is one of struggle—against people, against the heavens. I am invincible. Those who defy me will be slain!” Notes: This story is set in a parallel world where martial arts and cultivation each have their own distinct systems of practice. The protagonist is ruthless, decisive in killing, and not a benevolent savior. He does not involve himself in others’ affairs unless it benefits him. Aside from family, everyone else—whether man or woman—are mere ants in his eyes. This is a pure, adrenaline-pumping power fantasy. If certain details seem illogical, I kindly ask readers to take it with a grain of salt and not read too deeply into it. Please, avoid comparing it to real life. Much appreciated!
